(Reuters) - Coach Philippe Hinschberger was sacked by Ligue 1 bottom side Metz on Sunday, with the club citing the team's "catastrophic situation".

Metz, who lost 2-1 at home to Dijon on Saturday, have three points from 10 games after losing nine of them.

The club said in a statement that the team would be led in the interim by reserve coach Jose Pinot.
