What injury did Di Miguel suffer?

In stoppage time 90+, when the score was tied at 2/2, Andorra club goalkeeper, Jesús Auno, tried to clear an air ball from outside the penalty area and near the middle of the field.

Then, Jesús Auno's knee collided strongly with the chest and head of Jesús de Miguel, 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 Jesús Auno and blow the final whistle shortly before it ended.

The player lay in intensive care in the hospital, and after approximately 12 hours, he breathed his last.
