Barcelona have hit out at Sevilla ahead of tonight’s La Liga clash between the two sides after the Andalusians confirmed club officials would boycott the match at Montjuic.
Sevilla issued a statement expressing their “complete outrage” at Barcelona over the Negreira refereeing scandal.
The club added they “have suspended the normal protocol corresponding to the LaLiga match” and “will have no representation in the Montjuic stadium’s VIP box.”
Sevilla’s move has clearly upset Barcelona who have responded with a very strongly-worded statement of their own.
“Barcelona wants to publicly show its rejection of an unjustifed and inappropriate attack by Sevilla, a club that today refused to sit at the table at the instituional lunch between directors prior to tonight’s match between both teams at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys, where their representatives also refused to attend the honororay box.
