  "account": "On Tuesday, Spanish soccer player Jesus de Miguel, 30, passed away following a cardiac arrest that occurred during a match against FC Andorra. The incident transpired after he collided with Andorra goalkeeper Jesus Owono, causing the match to be suspended midway through stoppage time. De Miguel was rushed to the hospital via ambulance, but his condition worsened and he is now in intensive care. The club CD Tenerife confirmed his passing and expressed their deep sorrow, stating that there are no words to ease the overwhelming grief.\n\nThe tragic event led to a suspension of all matches scheduled for that day, including games in the Copa del Rey and Copa de la Reina. Furthermore, the official presentation for Spain's Under-21 team against Japan was cancelled out of respect for De Miguel's family, teammates, and the club's supporters. Spanish soccer clubs across the nation mourned the loss, with Barcelona and Real Madrid among those offering condolences and solidarity.\n\nBorn in Madrid in 1996, De Miguel joined Tenerife from Castellón in the 2025-26 season and scored 11 goals during the previous campaign.",
