Monaco relief

An appeals committee of the French Football Federation yesterday cancelled a two-point deduction imposed on Monaco but upheld a ruling to play one match behind closed doors. The FFF said it had overturned the points deduction given after a Ligue 2 match against Le Mans on May 17, when fans set off flares and invaded the pitch. One fan also attacked the referee in the incident, which came after Monaco secured promotion back to the top flight. Monaco opened its Ligue 1 account on Saturday with a 2-0 win against Bordeaux.
