Goalkeeper Owono breaks down after collision that preceded footballer’s death

FC Andorra goalkeeper Jesús Owono broke down in tears after an accidental collision with Tenerife forward Jesús de Miguel Alameda during a Spanish second-division match on Monday. De Miguel, 30, was taken to hospital after suffering a cardiac arrest and died on Tuesday morning; Tenerife had initially described his condition as “stable but serious.” Owono was sent off before the match was abandoned, and a judge is expected to open an investigation, although a court source described the collision as accidental. Owono is reportedly seeking to offer condolences to De Miguel’s family, while UEFA will hold a moment of silence at its matches this week.
