Owono ruling delayed; Liga matchday becomes tribute to De Miguel
The disciplinary committee has not yet ruled on the Andorra goalkeeper, with a decision expected next week. Tenerife hold a homage for the striker on Saturday 7 November.
The RFEF Disciplinary Committee has announced last round's sanctions but has not yet ruled on Jesús Owono, the Andorra goalkeeper whose challenge led to the death of Jesús de Miguel. According to La Vanguardia, the decision could come next week, since Andorra are not playing this weekend.
Owono could face up to 12 matches, the maximum under article 102 of the regulations, which sets a minimum of four for actions causing extreme harm. The referee's report describes a sudden challenge with a raised leg while the ball was in play, which places it within the game and makes a criminal case, according to the paper, very unlikely. Meanwhile, the National Police Homicide Group is investigating the medical response after the incident.
LaLiga and the RFEF will turn the matchday into a tribute: there will be a minute of silence before every match and, at minute 9 of each game, play will stop in memory of the player's shirt number. The postponed fixtures are:
- Castellón vs Eibar
- Granada vs Tenerife
- Andorra vs Mallorca
- Costa Adeje Tenerife vs Alavés (Liga F)
Tenerife will hold a homage on Saturday 7 November at 18:00 Canary time at the Heliodoro Rodríguez López, open to all fans and broadcast live on Liga and RFEF channels.
