Marseille fans held up banners criticising suspended defender Patrice Evra ahead of their Ligue 1 clash with Caen. The club swiftly suspended former France captain Evra, who arrived in January from Juventus, in the wake of Thursday's incident. "Evra go away." Marseille said in a statement on Friday that there had been "unacceptable behaviour" from some fans who subjected Evra and his team-mates to "hateful attacks" but said: "As a professional and experienced player, Patrice Evra could not respond in such an inappropriate way."
