## Summary

Andorra goalkeeper Jesús Owono has been suspended for 12 matches after a collision with Tenerife striker Jesús de Miguel, who died the following day. The Spanish football federation said Owono used “excessive force”; the incident has also prompted a police investigation into possible involuntary manslaughter.

De Miguel, 30, was chasing a high ball near the end of a match on 2 November when Owono rushed out of his area and struck him in the chest. De Miguel suffered cardiac arrest and died the next day. Owono has expressed remorse and offered condolences, while Andorra coach Carles Manso says Owono will decide when he is ready to return; prosecutors have said criminal proceedings are unlikely.
