A police officer has died during clashes between fans before Athletic Bilbao's home Europa League match against Spartak Moscow at San Mames.

The officer from the Ertzaintza - the Basque Country's police force - reportedly suffered a heart attack.

More than 500 officers were deployed for the fixture and reports say at least five arrests were made.


Three Russian football fans have been detained on murder charges.

"Our condolences to colleagues, friends and relatives of the Ertzaina deceased in act of service," Bilbao police said.

After the game, the La Liga club tweeted: "Our heartfelt condolences to the family and companions of the deceased officer today.

"The Athletic Club shows its strongest rejection of the violence generated around football."

Videos of the violent clashes showed supporters firing fireworks at each other on the streets.

European football's governing body Uefa said it "strongly condemned the violent clashes".

The clashes came on the same day a Russian, wanted for attacking an England fan during the Euro 2016 riots in Marseilles, was arrested in Munich while travelling to the match in Bilbao.

Spanish prime minister Mariano Rajoy offered his condolences and condemned the violence.

"My appreciation to Ertzaintza, for their efforts to protect those who know how to enjoy the sport," he tweeted.

La Liga president Javier Tebas added: "Ultra violence has claimed the life of a public servant - that's enough. La Liga will continue with our policy of combating the ultra phenomenon, until its total eradication."

Spartak won the second leg 2-1 but Athletic went through 4-3 on aggregate.

Sad news BUT the Russians did not kill a police officer. He had a heart attack.

That’s a scary precedent they are setting there then. Imagine if you’re in an fight at the pub and the bloke who’s starting on you has a heart attack and you end up in jail. Saying that, lock them up anyway. I can’t stand those cowardly Russian meatheads.

It's just the judicial system in many European countries? Probably get done for something else once investigation is complete, but shows what fans can expect in Russia in world cup :old:

Russia and Qatar only got the tournament buy buying it from FIFA. I know that's how the world works but the football world needs to turn their backs on that shit-shower.

As for the Russian WC, there will be deaths over there and all completely predictable by FIFA when they 'awarded' them it.

We're talking entirely different calibre here. It's like comparing a pistol to a machine gun. These Eastern Europeans are a match for our military, let alone casual football gangs. I'm really praying there won't be any tragedies in Russia; a huge mistake in my opinion to hold the WC there. I know the policing will be extensive but they can't be everywhere.

The Russian gangs are funded by the powers to be albeit Putin the FSB, whatever. Many of them have military backgrounds. For whatever reason they admired English hoolies and attempt to mirror their thuggery.Trouble is they do not get bladdered are usually very fit and have to pass selection tests to represent the various mobs.Equally they are admired by many senior government officials who view their escapades with pride and praise their manly appearance and physicality.They are prepared to use ultra violence with weaponry of numerous kinds.Their political view is that the west is weak and take advantage of soft policing in the countries they visit.I think it is silly to compare suffice to say no British mob would match these lunatics no matter what era they were from.I have an English mate who is off to Volvograd he must be mad !!!!
