Eight Marseille fans were arrested after violence around Sunday's home match against Paris Saint-Germain, which saw the visitors' coach pelted with missiles before the game and Zlatan Ibrahimovic reportedly almost hit by a golf ball.

Laurent Blanc's squad -- who had not taken their usual coach in the club's colours -- were pelted with stones before kickoff and delayed by more than an hour as they waited for permission to leave the stadium following the 3-2 win that kept them top of the table.

Reports said PSG star Ibrahimovic was reportedly almost hit by a golf ball that smashed through the window of the team coach.

The incident was one of several that led to eight Marseille fans being arrested. Four were later released, but the remaining four are still in custody.

Eight officers sustained minor injuries as police charged at groups of OM fans blocking a roundabout near the stadium.

Tear gas was also used to try and quell the outbreaks of trouble.
