  "account": "FC Andorra's goalkeeper, Jesus Owono, has been suspended for 12 matches by the Spanish football federation after his challenge on Jesus de Miguel in a match on November 2 resulted in the striker's death. Owono was sent off in the match for violently striking De Miguel with his leg, using excessive force, while the ball was in play. The Spanish forward died in hospital on November 3. Owono expressed deep remorse, calling it the hardest period of his life and struggling to find the words to process the tragic incident. The assessment of his conduct is based on the referee's report, which justified the maximum sanction of a 12-match suspension due to the violent nature of his actions. Spanish police have opened an investigation under judicial supervision into the incident.",
  "summary": "During a second-division clash against Tenerife, Equatorial Guinea international Jesus Owono rushed into midfield to clear an aerial ball but collided forcefully with Jesus De Miguel, who suffered critical injuries and later died.",
