An investigation has been launched for unintentional manslaughter in the case of the Spanish footballer who was taken down by the opposing goalkeeper, resulting in his death.

Spanish police are investigating the death of footballer Jesús de Miguel for suspected manslaughter following an incident during a match. The 30-year-old Tenerife player suffered a severe injury during a game against Andorra, leading to cardiac arrest in the ambulance. Despite initial resuscitation efforts, he passed away the next morning. The collision occurred in stoppage time when de Miguel was struck in the chest by Andorra's goalkeeper, Jesús Owono, who was subsequently sent off. The match was halted at a 2-2 score, pending a decision on whether it will be resumed.
