Ligue 1 promotion play-off postponed after Ajaccio fans attack Le Havre bus

Paris - A French second division playoff match between Ajaccio and Le Havre was postponed on Friday after fans of the Corsican club attacked the visitors' team bus.

Ajaccio and Normandy-based Le Havre are fighting for promotion to France's Ligue 1 top flight, but their respective bids are on ice after fans threw missiles at Le Havre's bus and impeded it as it tried to near the stadium entrance.

A meeting of officials and the team coaches was hastily convened, after which a delegate from the French Professional League (LFP) ruled that the fixture was postponed.

However it is expected to be rearranged for the coming days. The winner of Friday's fixture is scheduled to meet Toulouse, who finished 18th in Ligue 1, in the first leg of their playoff, on Wednesday.
