A train crash in Urda, Toledo province, Spain, puts 24 Copa del Rey football ties on hold this Wednesday, 28 October. The crash happened early in the morning. The Spanish Football Federation says it postponed the matches out of respect and solidarity with the victims.
The games were first-round, single-match ties. Valencia CF, Real Betis, Deportivo Alavés, RC Celta and Levante UD were among the clubs due to play.
The federation has also postponed nine Copa del Rey futsal matches scheduled for Wednesday and suspended a draw planned for Thursday. It says it will announce new dates and kick-off times for the postponed football ties later.
