UEFA are studying what happened, with fans releasing several yellow balloons

Camp Nou took advantage of the Champions League clash with Roma on Wednesday to demand the release of Catalonia's politican prisoners. They did it with banners, as usual, but also thousands of yellow balloons.

The problem for the club is that in the 19th mnute many of the balloons ended up on the pitch and it forced the game to be stopped for a couple of seconds. The club know there is a chance they could be punished because of the incident.

However according to La Graderia the cub believe that the stoppage was very brief and they did preventative work, advising fans not to throw balloons on the pitch, which could keep them from a sanction.
