On Thursday, May 15, Barcelona traveled to Espanyol for Matchday 36 of La Liga. However, the game was halted for several minutes, and now the reason behind the interruption has come to light.

Details: A tragedy unfolded outside Espanyol’s stadium—a car plowed into a crowd of people. This incident prompted the temporary suspension of the match, which resumed after a brief pause. At this time, the condition of the injured fans remains unknown.

It’s worth noting that before the match, Espanyol supporters put on an impressive pyrotechnics show, creating an electric atmosphere ahead of the Catalan derby.

As a reminder, this fixture could be a title-clincher for Barcelona. Should the Blaugrana defeat Espanyol, they will secure the La Liga title ahead of schedule.
