Spanish Derby Clash abandoned after Stand COLLAPSES Following Goal Celebration in Shocking Scenes

A SELL-OUT Spanish derby was abandoned after barriers collapsed in shocking scenes as players and fans celebrated a goal.

Sant Andreu supporters crashed out onto the grass in front of their shocked heroes in the fourth-tier clash at Catalan rivals CE Europa.

Whizkid Marc Jurado had slipped home his second strike to put the visitors 5-3 up in the 49th minute.

Players rushed to rejoice in the corner but many suddenly dashed to help when they saw a huge section of fencing behind the goal break.

Fans were pulled away - before the referee suspended the match in what Europa said was an attempt "to resolve the situation".

But officials soon decided the only option was to call the game off.

Europa posted that the match was abandoned as " the safety of the visiting fans cannot be guaranteed".

Sant Andreu confirmed "many" of their fans had "fallen onto the playing field".

But the club added, gratefully, only "minor injuries" had been suffered.

Sant Andreu had earlier suggested: "The remaining 40 [minutes] will probably have to be played on another day. Thank you very much for the support."

However, it's unclear how Spanish football chiefs will deal with the situation.

The frightening incident came after a goal-fest between two Barcelona-based clubs battling for a play-off spot.

However, it became clear all was not right behind the goal as the barriers began to ripple.

The fencing then gave away, sparking concern from players and officials as some fans seemed trapped on the ground.

But thankfully it appears no one was seriously hurt.

Fans reacted on social media with relief and amazement.

"The field was packed," said one, while another called the scenes "craziness".
