“I feel great pain.” This is what the goalkeeper who caused the injury that led to the death of a Spanish player pledged

The Spanish club Andorra issued, through its account on the “X” platform, previously Twitter, on Wednesday, a statement that included statements by its goalkeeper, Jesus Auno.

Owono had caused a serious injury that led to the death of Tenerife striker, Jesus de Miguel, on the sidelines of a match in the Spanish second division.

Jesus Auno said: "These are the most difficult days of my life. I find it very difficult to find the 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.”

Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich mourned the player who died at the age of 30, in addition to Portuguese stars Cristiano Ronaldo and Argentine Lionel Messi.

The European Football Association (UEFA) also decided to hold a minute of silence during its competition matches, in honor of the late striker.

What injury did Di Miguel suffer?

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

Then, Owono's knee collided strongly with the chest and head of Jesus 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 Jesus 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.
