Cornellà-El Prat

Cornellà-El Prat, officially known as the RCDE Stadium, is the home stadium of the Espanyol football club, located in Cornellà de Llobregat, Barcelona. It's newsworthy due to two recent events. First, during a recent match, a segment of the crowd was heard chanting offensive slogans, specifically targeting Muslims, prompting condemnation and stadium announcements against such behavior. Second, the stadium is set to host a friendly match between the Spanish national football team and Egypt. This marks the national team's return to Barcelona after four years, highlighting the stadium's capacity to host significant sporting events and its role in Spanish football. The upcoming match is expected to draw a large crowd, similar to a previous match against Albania held there in 2022, further solidifying the stadium's relevance.
