A friendly soccer fixture between France and England will go ahead next week despite a series of gun attacks and suicide bombings which claimed the lives of over 120 people in Paris.
The game had been cancelled as a mark of respect for the victims, three of which died in a bomb blast close to the Stade de France.
But members of the French media are now reporting that the game will be played as per the original fixture plans, unless there are substantial objections from the French players or staff.
