“A review of the national epidemiological situation will be carried out in mid-July to decide if it is possible to relax (the rules) in the second half of August,” it added in a statement.
Although football’s Ligue 1 and 2 and rugby’s Top 14 league decided to end their seasons in April after they were halted in March because of the coronavirus pandemic, the government’s decision means a crowd should be able to attend the coming French Football Cup and League Cup finals.
A date has not been sent for either match but they are expected to be played at the end of July. More than 29,600 people have reportedly  died from virus-related conditions in France. However,  the national lockdown imposed in the wake of teh pandemic was lifted in May.
