La Cartuja Stadium was decked out for the Copa del Rey final, but nervousness and chaos took over at several entry points. A full house was guaranteed, yet thousands of fans struggled to get inside. Long lines, bottlenecks, pushing, and total collapse were reported at multiple gates. Some supporters complained that security checks were excessively strict given the massive crowd entering each gate. Police argued that the procedure was fully in line with regulations. However, at certain access points, fans piled up with barely any room to move forward. Despite the initial turmoil, the majority of spectators managed to reach their seats minutes before kickoff, ready to cheer on their teams. The party atmosphere eventually took over at La Cartuja.
