THIS is the incredible moment Cadiz star Conan Ledesma charged across the pitch carrying a defibrillator.

That’s after a fan suffered a cardiac arrest in the stands during Saturday’s game against Barcelona.

The LaLiga game was paused for almost an HOUR in worrying scenes at the Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla.

Xavi’s men were 2-0 up through Frenkie de Jong and Robert Lewandowski when the horrific incident occurred with just nine minutes left.

Players became aware of panic in the crowd as the referee stopped the game.

A supporter in the stands was reportedly suffering a heart attack, said Mundo Deportivo.

And Cadiz star Ledesma wasted no time in grabbing life-saving medical equipment before charging towards the scene.

The Argentine stopped threw the defibrillator into the crowd as concerned onlookers tried to help.

Red Cross staff were also present as the fan was revived in the stands.

Players including Barca’s Ronald Araujo prayed on the pitch, with several others in tears.

After 15 emotional minutes, both teams were sent into the dressing rooms by the ref.

An ambulance then arrived at the scene as the fan was taken away on a stretcher.

The supporter is now understood to be recovering in hospital.

There was further panic in the stands when another fan collapsed, but this time they had only fainted and were treated on the spot.

The game eventually restarted 55 minutes from when it was first halted.
