Following the judge's warning of the outcome of the match between the parties moved to the RCDE stadium tunnel.
Tensions were high during the whole match for the rough game, but they grew when Gerard Pique equated the outcome and celebrated in front of local fans, asking for calm.

And normally it caused the nerves not only in fans, but also in the Espanyol players and their staff, as they considered them to be the possible respect and promotion of tensions.
In the match report, Judge Jesus Gil Manzano made it clear that discussions between players continued in the tunnel, but did not mention any specific names.
At the end of the match when we entered the tunnel, we found a group of players and staffs from both clubs arguing with each other. But we haven't noticed any kind of aggression”, Manzano wrote.
No offending choirs of local fans towards Piques have been mentioned in the report, nor has the Spaniard made any gesture to local fans.
