Tenerife manager \u00c1lvaro Cervera says FC Andorra goalkeeper Jes\u00fas Owono\u2019s 12-match ban<\/a> may seem lenient following Jes\u00fas de Miguel<\/a>\u2019s death. but accepts that football regulations limited the punishment.\n<\/p>\n

Owono was sent off after colliding with De Miguel during the closing stages of a Spanish second-division match between the two clubs on November 2.\n<\/p>\n

De Miguel died the following day. The Spanish Football Federation\u2019s disciplinary committee confirmed Owono\u2019s 12-match suspension on Friday.\n<\/p>\n

The committee said the punishment was the maximum available under the regulations, as it could only assess the incident on the pitch and not the tragic outcome.<\/p>\n

Speaking ahead of Tenerife\u2019s match against Ceuta on Sunday, their first fixture since De Miguel\u2019s death, Cervera said the disciplinary authorities had acted within the limits of the existing rules.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cI think that, just as in other areas of life, there are rules or laws that must be followed,\u201d Cervera said.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cSince the current regulations don\u2019t specifically account for what happened, I believe they have simply adhered to the rules and imposed the number of matches permitted by the regulations.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cAnything else I might say would just be my own personal opinion, which I\u2019ll keep to myself. It might seem a bit light when compared to other cases, but in reality, I don\u2019t think the rules allow for anything else.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
