Spain's football federation disciplinary committee has suspended FC Andorra goalkeeper Jesús Owono for twelve matches, the maximum sanction, over a collision with Tenerife forward Jesús de Miguel during a match on 2 November. The committee said the sanction reflected the nature of the conduct. Owono was sent off for violently striking an opponent with his leg, and De Miguel later died. National Police have opened a criminal investigation into the death, which is classified as unnatural. The sporting ruling is separate from that case. Owono has not decided whether he will return to play, according to Andorra coach Carles Manso.
