(CNN) - The Disciplinary Committee of the Spanish Football Federation imposed a penalty on Andorra club goalkeeper, Jesus Auno, after he caused an injury that led to the death of Tenerife club striker, Jesus de Miguel.
According to the Eurosport website, Owono was suspended for 12 matches, which is considered the maximum penalty that the disciplinary committee can impose on perpetrators of violent behavior inside the green rectangle.
The Disciplinary Committee of the Spanish Federation explained that the decision to punish the goalkeeper is subject to appeal.
Jesús Auno had said a short period of time after he injured the late Di Miguel: “These are the most difficult days of my life. I find it very difficult to find words, and it is very difficult for me to comprehend what happened. I feel tremendous pain for the loss of Di Miguel. My thoughts are with him, his family, and all those who loved him.”
He added: “I know that there are many things that will have to be dealt with,” pledging: “I will face everything that comes next with the utmost respect, but right now, in all honesty, I cannot think of anything except Jesus and the pain that we are all going through.”
What are the details of the injury suffered by Jesus de Miguel during a match in the Spanish Second Division on November 2?
In stoppage time 90+, when the score was tied 2/2, goalkeeper Owono tried to kick an air ball from outside the penalty area and near the middle of the field.
Then, Jesús Auno's knee collided hard with Di Miguel's chest and head, who was trying to get the ball, causing the latter to fall to the ground.
The Tenerife club player lost consciousness without any movement, suffering from a heart attack, then the medical team intervened to treat him before he was transported via ambulance to the hospital, which prompted referee Manuel Hernandez to show the red card to Auno and blow the final whistle shortly before it ended.
The attacker lay in intensive care in the hospital, and after approximately 12 hours, he breathed his last.
