Genesio asks to delay Lens-Marseille; the LFP says no
The Lens coach wanted a later kick-off after his team's late-arriving flight, but the match will start at 20:45 as planned.
Lens coach Bruno Genesio asked for the kick-off of the Matchday 10 clash against Marseille to be pushed back by a few minutes, after his team's plane landed very late in the Pas-de-Calais region. According to L'Ăquipe, the LFP turned the request down: the match will still start at 20:45.
The late arrival of the flight was the reason behind Genesio's request, but the league's refusal keeps the schedule exactly as originally set, and both sides will kick off at the time already announced.
