PARIS (FRANCE) (ITALPRESS) – The match is off, at least today. There was great excpectation for this evening’s “Le Classique” (8:45 PM) between Roberto De Zerbi’s Olympique Marseille and Luis Enrique’s PSG, but we’ll have to wait another day. The French derby has been postponed until tomorrow evening (8:00 PM) due to weather conditions that predict “a wave of bad weather that will cause heavy rain and thunderstorms.”
The decision was made by the prefect of Marseille, who explained his action in a press release, explaining: “According to Météo-France forecasts, the entire department will be hit by a Mediterranean event in the late afternoon, causing heavy rain and thunderstorms. Accumulations could reach 70-90 mm in some areas and locally 120 mm in a few hours. Heavy rainfall is expected across the region between 7:00 PM and 10:00 PM, at the start and end of the match, which was expected to draw nearly 70,000 fans at the Stade Vélodrome.” Ligue 1 has decided to postpone Le Classique until tomorrow evening, starting at 8:00 PM.
