Barcelona could face sanctions from the Spanish authorities in the aftermatch of El Clasico, after the report from referee Juan Martinez Munuera indicated two dangerous incidents involving the fans at Camp Nou.
Twice El Clasico had to be stopped as the referee waited for announcement to be made over the tannoy, asking fans to respect the players and refrain from throwing objects.
Diario AS have published part of the match report which indicates what happened.
“In the 74th minute of the match, several lighters were thrown by the public located behind the Real Madrid goal without hitting any player. Due to this, the meeting was stopped for a few minutes to announce over the public address system that these acts ceased.”
However just six minutes later, a similar incident occurred but this time with two bottles, a coin and 3 lighters. One of them hit Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.
“In the 80th minute of the game and during the celebration of a Real Madrid goal, two half-filled bottles of water fell from a sector of the stands without hitting any player, while 3 lighters and one fell on the Real Madrid goal. 1 euro coin, impacting one of these objects on the Real Madrid goalkeeper, without causing any damage and being able to continue without any problem.”
“Due to what was previously written, the meeting was stopped for a few minutes, announcing it again over the public address system.”
Fortunately it did not do any damage to Courtois, but it appears the seriousness of the issue was lost on the Barcelona support. Had the coin impacted on Courtois’ head, it could have had permanent effects on the Belgian.
It is not yet clear whether Barcelona will face sanctions for the offences. In addition, the last thing Barcelona need is more conflict with the authorities or potential financial punishment.
What ever you feel like or said shit on Barcelona,the Match was not Officiate properly that cause those hated you saw on the pitch.despite barca injured foe doesn’t mean can beat barca to that margin off goal .the referees put pressure on barca by giving unnecessary foul to real madrid and over look barca foul and continue the play when they foul barca so it is unfair when they are in need of win again barce real mardrid need the support of the referee to do so.
I mean, I didnt see you complain last match when that offside goal was in fact correct anf gavi was allowed to body check Carva without VAR review, so forgive me if I doubt your “unbiased view”.
O man! Your observations were baseless and blasphemously bias against the match officials.
It seems you are a JJC fan. Haven’t you been watching classics between these two la Liga giants ? I’m not a fan of either club but a journalist.
I said it Barcelona fans are lunatic, selfish, arrogant, barbaric, and idiomatic besides when they won three El classico this season including the one they won in Estadio Santiago Bernabeu real Madrid fans never overeacted even the previous one they won by 4 goals to neal at stantiago Bernabeu los Blancos and los merenguez fans never overeacted to there play nor there fans now it was our turn now they’re angry I’m not too please with the result for me I won’t to be more than that cos they have humiliate us in the pass
What else to expect from sav.ges?
I mean if you go to zoo, you will see animals throwing faec.es at people tat pass by. The catalanimaI contingent is basically a mere step up from those animals, judging by their actions. Im merely making an observation from experience by drawing parallels.
This is an adequate representation of mentality from that hapless place and should corrode any credibility they had left, come potential investigations, along with racist chants.
I suggest 3-4 matches without crowd, that should teach them.
you are ingnorant you talk out of your sence
Barca team as a whole are arrogant thinking winning every match is a right, especially at their fortress. This is not far fetched due to the impending bribery scandal awaiting them which happened during their hey days, where they humiliated teams including RM and won almost all matches with suspicious officiating, won’t be surprised if they are found guilty, stripped of all silverware during those period and demoted to serve as a deterrent. Are you surprised their overhyped coach now at Man City has never won any significant trophy since those period.
