Barça fans protest against Frankfurt support inside Camp Nou
The home supporters were upset with how many away fans gained access
The Barcelona fans that occupy the singing section behind one of the goals at Camp Nou left their seats at the start of the second half on Thursday.
They did so in protest at the thousands of Eintracht Frankfurt supporters who had gained access to the home end to see the German side knock Barça out of the Europa League.
The area behind the goal emptied at half-time and the fans did not return until the 55th minute, with Barça already trailing 2-0 from the first half.

Frankfurt had been given 5,000 official tickets but upwards of 25,000 made it inside Camp Nou for the match on Thursday.
They saw their side take a 3-0 lead before a late Barça comeback threatened to take the game to extra time, but Xavi's side came up short, losing 3-2 on the night and 4-3 on aggregate.
