Bengaluru, June 8: The Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) and the La Liga have announced that a minute's silence will be observed before matches in all professional and amateur competitions in Spain, when the season restarts, in memory of the thousands of people who have lost their lives to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
Both organisations have reached an agreement to pay tribute during the remainder of the current season to all the people who have passed away during the pandemic, as well as to their families.
"Starting on Wednesday (June 10) with the meeting of Rayo Vallecano and Albacete BP, and as will be the case before all other La Liga Santander (Premier Division) and La Liga SmartBank (First Division) fixtures and the promotion play-offs to reach La Liga Santander, La Liga SmartBank and Segunda Division B, the football world will remember those who are no longer with us through a minute's silence prior to every game," a La Liga statement said.

Other matches to watch out in the weekend include the Valencia derby between Valencia CF and Levante on Friday (June 12) and Athletic Club vs Atletico Madrid tie on Sunday (June 14).
La Liga's return to competitive action was done in a meticulous manner. First, medical tests were conducted in all clubs before the players returned to individual training.
Later, the group training sessions began after strictly complying with the protocol issued by the La Liga in co-ordination with the Spanish High Sports Council.
While the priority right now for La Liga is to complete the delayed 2019-20 season, organisers have also also begun to look ahead to the 2020-21 season.
La Liga President Javier Tebas recently revealed that that he hopes to start the domestic campaign next season on September 12, around one month later than it would usually start.
