Toulouse are one of two clubs who may be saved from relegation from France's top football league. PARIS: France's highest administrative court on Tuesday blocked the relegation of Amiens and Toulouse from Ligue 1 while rejecting Lyon's appeal against the decision to declare the season over.
The decision to call the season off with 10 rounds of matches unplayed followed an announcement by the French government that football could not restart because of the health crisis. Amiens and Toulouse argued their relegation from the top-flight was"unjust and"arbitrary" while Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas was the leading voice against the decision to end the season early.Lyon, who have reached this season's Champions League last 16, were left seventh in the table and outside the European qualification places when the season was halted.
