Nice-Lyon game postponed because of heavy rain

The French league match between Nice and Lyon has been postponed until Sunday afternoon because of heavy rain.

The teams are battling for third place and a spot in the Champions League final qualifying round. With two rounds remaining, Lyon is in third place and three points ahead of fifth-place Nice.

Nice has surged up the standings in the second half of the season.

Paris Saint-Germain clinched the league title last weekend and Marseille has already sealed second place.
