Barcelona face La Liga investigation following alleged assault on Eduardo Camavinga in El Clasico

Share:

Barcelona are facing potential disciplinary action following ugly scenes during Sunday’s El Clasico defeat to Real Madrid, according to GOAL.​

The Spanish top flight is set to report an alleged assault to the Spanish Football Federation’s (RFEF) disciplinary committee after a spectator at Camp Nou violently swung a flagpole at Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga.

The incident occurred during Madrid’s goal celebrations following a winning strike from Kylian Mbappé, which was set up by Camavinga.​ The hostile atmosphere also saw water bottles and missiles thrown from the stands, prompting a stadium-wide announcement and a temporary suspension of play.

Referee Juan Martinez Munuera documented the disturbances in his post-match report. Authorities are now reviewing broadcast footage to identify the culprits, leaving the Catalan giants facing potential sanctions such as partial stadium closures or fines.
