    Sunday's initial fixture was stopped after 17 minutes when officials were alerted to a problem in the stands.

    As the person received ongoing medical treatment, the players were eventually taken off the field. La Liga later confirmed the supporter had died and the match would be rescheduled.

    It resumed from the 17th minute, with Bilbao leading through an Inaki Williams goal, and the hosts equalised courtesy of a Ruiz de Galaretta own goal early in the second half, securing a 1-1 draw.

    Rayo Vallecano and Celta Vigo, meanwhile, could also not be separated as their clash at Estadio de Vallecas ended 0-0.
