MADRID, 15 May. (EUROPA PRESS) –
LaLiga has informed this Monday that it will denounce the violent invasion of the field that occurred at the RCDE Stadium, at the end of the RCD Espanyol-FC Barcelona, which dissolved the sardana for the league title of the Catalans, forced to quickly retire to the changing rooms, according to a message posted on social media.
On its Twitter profile, LaLiga announced that “it has already analyzed all the images since yesterday” of the events that occurred in Cornellà, so “in collaboration with RCD Espanyol, it will identify all those responsible to prevent them from returning to the stadiums” and “He will report the facts to the competent bodies.”
The celebration for the FC Barcelona League title was cut short by the invasion of the pitch at the RCDE Stadium by a significant number of Espanyol fans, who prevented the traditional Barca sardana and challenged security, with the launch of objects and moments of tension.
In the middle of the sardana with the Barça squad in the center of the field, the invasion of the field began, forcing the players and coaching staff to run to the changing room tunnel. No member of Barça came into contact with the fans who jumped violently in their direction, cut off by security forces at the mouth of the tunnel. The hundred followers spent about 20 minutes stalking that door into the stadium.
The Mossos d’Esquadra took the front line with their riot shields before the launch of different objects, such as billboards and chairs, and the stadium’s public address system insisted the invaders leave the pitch, while the Catalans continued celebrating in the locker room.
