"The LFP (French league) has decided that the OM v PSG game would be played on November 20, 2009," Marseille said on their official website.

The Marseille versus Sochaux game scheduled for November 21 has now been moved to December 2.

Marseille and PSG criticised the French League (LFP) on Monday after 20 people were injured and 18 arrested in clashes between police and fans following the postponement of the game.

The two clubs and local authorities were unhappy that LFP president Frederic Thiriez had waited until Sunday lunchtime to postpone that evening's match when 2,000 PSG supporters were already on the streets of Marseille.
