Jesus Owono Grieves After Tenerife Striker's Death

FC Andorra goalkeeper Jesus Owono stated on Wednesday that he is experiencing the "hardest days of my life" after the death of Tenerife striker Jesus de Miguel, who died on Tuesday from injuries sustained in a collision with Owono during a Spanish second division match on Monday. Owono, 25, expressed his immense pain and sorrow in a statement, emphasizing his thoughts for de Miguel's family and loved ones.

An investigation into the incident has been opened by Spanish police. In response to the tragedy, Andorra players held a minute's silence, although Owono did not attend training.

Venancio Tomas Micha, president of the Equatorial Guinea Football Federation, offered condolences and support to Owono, acknowledging the distress he is experiencing. Lautaro Spatz, an Andorra defender, also expressed support for Owono on Instagram.

Following de Miguel's death, matches involving Tenerife and Andorra scheduled for the weekend have been postponed, with the Spanish football federation canceling all Copa del Rey and Copa de la Reina matches for the week as a mark of respect.
