Headline: RFEF Imposes Twelve-Match Ban on FC Andorra’s Goalkeeper Jesús Owono
The Disciplinary Committee of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) has issued a twelve-match suspension to Jesús Owono, the goalkeeper for FC Andorra, following his red card during the late stages of the match against CD Tenerife.
On Wednesday, the RFEF concluded that the match would be recorded as a draw. In deciding on the penalty, the disciplinary committee referred to Article 102 of the Disciplinary Code, which addresses violent conduct during gameplay that can lead to injuries or serious consequences. As a result, Owono has received the maximum permissible suspension under this rule.
From a legal perspective, this ruling applies strictly to sporting disciplinary matters and is distinct from any judicial proceedings that may arise. Given that the incident involved unnatural causes, the National Police have initiated an investigation under judicial oversight to clarify the circumstances surrounding the event.
FC Andorra expressed its deep shock at the passing of Jesús de Miguel, extending condolences to his family and CD Tenerife. The club has also provided psychological support to its players, coaching staff, and other personnel to help them deal with the emotional repercussions of the situation.
