## Key points

- Owono receives a 12-match suspension.
- De Miguel died the day after the collision.
- The abandoned match’s 2-2 score will stand.

## Summary

FC Andorra goalkeeper Jesus Owono has been suspended for 12 matches after a collision with Tenerife forward Jesus de Miguel during a Spanish second-tier game. De Miguel died the following day, aged 30, and the ruling has drawn attention to how football authorities handle discipline after a fatal on-field incident.

The Spanish federation said it based its decision on the referee’s report, which described Owono as striking De Miguel in the chest with his leg using excessive force. The match was abandoned with the score at 2-2, seven minutes into stoppage time, and will not be replayed. Owono, 25, is spending time with his family and has not decided whether he will return to football.
