At the end of the Clasico between Barcelona and Real Madrid, French midfielder Eduardo Camavinga was hit on the head by flag sticks while celebrating Los Blancos' 2‑1 goal in the final minutes. The incident occurred right under the Blaugrana fans' sector, where some spectators attempted to approach Camavinga with flag poles, in some cases managing to hit him. The player immediately protected his face and his teammates intervened to remove him from the area and ask those present to stop the behavior.
According to videos released on social media, the Barcelona crowd was unable to contain the episode, despite the rest of the match taking place without any particular public order problems. Real Madrid has suffered an episode of violence which now risks having disciplinary consequences. LaLiga has already viewed the images and has decided to present a complaint to the Disciplinary Committee, which will evaluate possible sanctions against the fans involved.
The League said it remains firmly committed to eliminating any violent or intolerant acts from Spanish football. “LaLiga is determined to intervene decisively after the attack suffered by the Real Madrid midfielder,” underlined the League representative. The episode raised the issue of safety in large stadiums and the responsibility of fans towards players.
The case now awaits the decision of the Disciplinary Committee, which will be able to impose sanctions on the responsible fans and, if necessary, take preventive measures to avoid future similar incidents. In the meantime, Real Madrid and Barcelona will have to manage the repercussions of this episode on their sporting relationship and the reputation of their respective fans. LaLiga continues to monitor the situation and work with the authorities to ensure safety and compliance with the rules of football.
