Spanish football authorities have suspended FC Andorra goalkeeper Jesús Owono for 12 matches following a collision that preceded the death of Tenerife striker Jesús de Miguel. The 30-year-old forward died on 3 November, one day after the second-division match.

The disciplinary committee relied on the referee’s report, which described Owono striking his opponent with excessive force. Officials imposed the maximum 12-match sanction and ruled that the abandoned game would not resume, leaving the score at 2-2.

Why It Matters

The ruling establishes a sporting sanction following a fatal on-field incident, without determining criminal liability. Owono has not decided whether to return to playing.
