It also deducted a point from Bordeaux for next season and ordered the closure of the south stand at Bordeaux stadium for two games.<\/p>\n<p>The June 2 match between Bordeaux and Rodez was stopped shortly after Lucas Buades gave Rodez a 1-0 lead on the final day of the season. While Rodez players celebrated, a Bordeaux fan stepped onto the pitch and pushed Buades to the ground.<\/p>\n<p>The match referee stopped proceedings and sent both teams back to the locker room and Buades was diagnosed with a concussion and the game did not resume.<\/p>\n<p>Bordeaux were involved in a two-way battle with Metz for the second promotion spot behind second-division champion Le Havre. Metz beat Bastia 3-2 on the final day and will be promoted unless Bordeaux manage to overturn the committee\u2019s decision.<\/p>\n<p>Bordeaux said in a statement that the ruling was \u201cas incomprehensible as it is disproportionate\u201d and that it would refer the case to France\u2019s national Olympic committee.<\/p>\n<p>With six French leagues titles, four French Cups, three League Cups and success on the European stage, the southwestern club are one of the most decorated in the country.
