Like what, stupidity in the stands is not a French exclusivity. In the 92nd minute of the meeting between Betis Seville and Espanyol Barcelona, ​​Antony's decisive goal for visitors caused clashes in the stands, and the game was interrupted after three lighters were launched in the direction of the goalkeeper of Betis. Fortunately, the incident did not degenerate and the remaining minutes of the match went without any other incident. But this could considerably change the near future of Espanyol in their stadium.

Since September 26, when at the end of the Espanyol -Villarreal match (1-2) the referee Alejandro Quintero González had been struck by a spectator – Espanyol Barcelona is under a closed closed artist. Sanction that could be implemented after the incidents of this Sunday, and which would deprive the club of its supporters … for the derby against Barcelona. A problem for both teams, since FC Barcelona could therefore be crowned champion in front of an empty stadium.
