Sevilla announced 14 supporters were injured and 10 hospitalised after a barrier at Eibar’s Ipurua collapsed under pressure on Saturday.
Fans were injured when a barrier in the away supporters’ section buckled during Sevilla’s 3-1 victory against Eibar in LaLiga.
Amid the celebrations for Ever Banega’s 59th-minute penalty, spectators spilled onto the pitch as the railing gave way under pressure.
Sevilla chairman Jose Castro and sporting director Joaquin Caparros visited the hospitalised fans at Mendaro Hospital.
Ten injured Sevillans, none of them seriously, were taken to the Mendaro Hospital.
The Nervion expedition was interested in his condition in the hospital before returning to Seville.
