MHSC finishes last and goes down to Ligue 2
despite the clean sheet recorded against Stade de Reims (0-0), Montpellier Hérault SC (MHSC) is now guaranteed to finish last in the standings and will play in Ligue 2 next season. This situation has not pleased the club’s supporters, who have expressly expressed their discontent by harassing players Wahbi Khazri and Téji Savanier during the match against Stade de Reims. According to L’Equipe, a section of the crowd booed the two players and chanted “a calzone for Khazri, a snack for Teji”. The Tunisian striker reportedly wanted to confront some fans but was helped back.
This is not the first time tensions have risen between Montpellier supporters and Khazri. During the previous home match against Le Havre AC (0-2), the atmosphere had already been tensed when the formation Saint-Étienne player warmed up.
