How did the tragedy happen?
During a match held on November 2 of this year as part of the Spanish Segunda, goalkeeper Owono struck opposing player de Miguel hard in the chest with his foot.
The pitch medics managed to resuscitate the player directly at the stadium. However, the 30-year-old midfielder, who was immediately hospitalized, passed away the following day due to the severe injuries he sustained. This news has shaken the entire football community.
The goalkeeper's mental state and statement
Jesus Owono, who also represents the Equatorial Guinea national team, is taking this tragedy very hard. According to media reports, the Andorra goalkeeper is suffering from severe depression: he is barely attending training, rarely leaves his home, and has sought psychological help due to extreme stress.
Previously, Owono had expressed his condolences to the family and fans of the late Jesus de Miguel in a statement on social media. This incident forces us to once again seriously reflect on issues of safety and mutual respect in sports.
