Paris Saint-Germain's French league match against Olympique Lyonnais was postponed from Sunday to Monday at the request of police, who said they could not guarantee safety around the fixture amid expected unrest in Paris. Hundreds of thousands had demonstrated in the city the previous weekend, with demonstrations escalating into serious riots in many places.

The rescheduling means several PSG players nominated for the Ballon d'Or are likely unable to attend the award ceremony in London on Monday evening. The NFL game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and New Orleans Saints at the Stade de France is still scheduled for next Sunday, but its Paris pop-up shop has closed because it could be difficult to reach if demonstrations resume.
