Protective barrier gives way

But the clash at Girona's Montilivi stadium witnessed a scare when part of the section housing the Osasuna fans gave way as they celebrated Kodro's strike.

The incident saw the protective barrier at the front of the stand buckle under the weight of the away supporters, causing a number of the Navarre club's followers to spill forwards.
