Striker Jesus de Miguel Alameda passed away at the age of 30, following a collision during a Spanish second-tier football match on Tuesday. The incident occurred in a game between Tenerife and Andorra, which was halted seven minutes into stoppage time after De Miguel collapsed from a chest injury sustained from a knee strike by Andorra's goalkeeper, Jesus Owono.
