Auxerre captain Yann Lachuer scored the first goal in the ninth minute, playing a headed pass by Bonaventure Kalou into the back of the net. Kalou then converted a penalty in the 77th after a foul on Luigi Pieroni in the box.
The Italian government backed a series of new "zero tolerance" measures Thursday designed to curb fan violence at soccer matches.
Effective immediately, matches will be abandoned if objects are thrown from the stands. The team whose fans threw the objects will be penalized with an automatic 3-0 loss.
Police have been told to cancel games if there is violence before kickoff -- inside or outside the stadium -- or if they spot offensive banners, signs or symbols.
The Interior Ministry announced the measures.
