MADRID, March 15 (Xinhua) -- The Primera Liga match between Real Betis and Athletic Bilbao was suspended on Saturday after Bilbao goalkeeper Armando was hit by a bottle thrown by a fan.
A plastic bottle full of liquid struck in the face at Armando as he went to get a ball for a goal kick.
The keeper was treated on the pitch and then taken off on a stretcher and the referee suspended the game with about 18 minutes left to play, when Bilbar were leading it 2-1.
Stadium officials arrested the person who threw the bottle.
