The French football league's governing body (LFP) has imposed a partial closure of a stand at Parc des Princes for PSG's match against Toulouse due to anti-gay chanting.
Sanctions will take effect on Nov. 5, after the LFP condemned recent anti-gay chants during a match, leading to increased scrutiny on homophobic behavior in football.
French sports minister Gil Averous emphasized the need for stricter measures, warning that Ligue 1 and Ligue 2 matches may be suspended if homophobic behavior persists.
The disciplinary committee's decision highlights ongoing challenges in addressing homophobia in sports, urging teams and fans to promote inclusivity and respect at matches.
