Goalkeeper Jesús Owono has been handed a 12-match suspension by disciplinary authorities following a severe on-pitch collision that resulted in the death of forward Jesús de Miguel.

After reviewing the incident, the disciplinary committee ruled that the shot-stopper’s challenge was excessively aggressive and disproportionate to the sporting situation. Owono’s legal representatives have stated their intention to thoroughly examine the full written reasoning behind the verdict before deciding whether to lodge an appeal.

In addition to the individual sanction, league officials announced plans to hold formal consultations with the referees' committee to explore stricter measures aimed at preventing similarly dangerous collisions in the future.
