Goalkeeper Owono says ‘hardest days of my life’ after De Miguel death
Equatorial Guinea international Jesus Owono said he knew there would be many issues to address and would face them with the utmost respect.
FC Andorra goalkeeper Jesus Owono has revealed that the death of Tenerife striker Jesus de Miguel has been the hardest days of his life. The incident occurred during a Spanish second division match on Monday when Owono collided with de Miguel, resulting in the 30-year-old Spanish footballer's death on Tuesday. Owono expressed his immense pain and inability to process the tragic event, saying, "I feel immense pain over the loss of Jesus.
I think of him, of his family, and of all the people who loved him." Spanish police have opened an investigation into the incident, and Andorra players observed a minute's silence in honor of de Miguel before a voluntary training session, which Owono did not attend. The Equatorial Guinea Football Federation also offered condolences to Owono, providing him with human and professional support.
Andorra's next match against Granada has been postponed, as have Mallorca's matches, with a tribute planned for Saturday.
