Montpellier-Nimes clash stopped due to crowd trouble

A Ligue 1 match between Montpellier and Nimes was stopped due to crowd trouble, while a barrier also collapsed during the game.

The rivals were meeting in Ligue 1 for the first time since 1993 and Sunday's clash was packed full of incident.

A barrier collapsed during the first half - the day after a similar accident in Eibar's home defeat against Sevilla in LaLiga - but there were no serious injuries.
