Goalkeeper Owono says ‘hardest days of my life’ after De Miguel death

FC Andorra goalkeeper Jesus Owono has spoken of the "hardest days of my life" following the death of Tenerife striker Jesus de Miguel, whom he collided with during a match on Monday. The 30-year-old de Miguel died Tuesday as a result of injuries sustained in the incident. Owono, 25, said he is struggling to process the tragic event and is finding it difficult to express his emotions.

He paid tribute to his fallen teammate, saying he will remember him and his family with immense pain. Spanish police have launched an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the collision, with Andorra players observing a minute's silence in his memory. The Spanish Football Federation, Equatorial Guinea Football Federation, and Tenerife have all paid tribute to de Miguel, with the latter planning a tribute match and a six-day mourning period.
