"La Liga condemned threats and intimidation by Sevilla fans aimed at their own players and directors after they fell to a third straight league defeat. Sevilla lost 1-0 away at bottom side Real Oviedo, and some supporters met the team at the airport to insult them."
"La Liga stated that this behavior unacceptably crosses the line of legitimate criticism and sporting expression. They will report the incident to Spanish authorities and continue to take action in the future against similar incidents."
"Anyone who crosses the line from criticism into threats, intimidation, or harassment stops acting as a fan and starts acting as a violent individual. And against violent individuals, La Liga acts and will act."
