The French soccer league has filed a complaint after an eight-year-old Marseille supporter suffering from advanced cancer and his family were attacked during a match against Ajaccio in Corsica. Ajaccio prosecutor Nicolas Septe says in a statement quoted by L'Equipe newspaper that the league has joined the case as a civil party in the judicial proceedings. Ajaccio has not lodged a formal complaint but has condemned the attack that took place on the final day of the season on Saturday. The boy named Kenzo was invited to Corsica to attend the game and meet Marseille players. Kenzo's mother accused the attackers of storming their box and hitting his head on a rail, ripping his Marseille shirt off, and punching the father.
