Ligue 1 side St. Etienne will pay tribute to victims of the horrific attacks in Paris and neighbouring Saint Denis by sporting commemorative kits for Sunday's match against Marseille.

Like the one-off kits worn by Scottish Premiership side Hamilton Academical in their Sunday draw with Aberdeen, the St. Etienne version is a subtle show of sympathy for those affected by the attacks.

St. Etienne have also paid tribute by upholstering seats on their bench with the colours of the French flag, as football continues to be a worthy distraction for people traumatized by the recent example of senseless violence in the capital.
