Tenerife manager says goalkeeper's 12-match ban feels light

Tenerife manager Alvaro Cervera stated that goalkeeper Jesus Owono's 12-match ban feels light, but acknowledged that regulations do not specifically account for what happened. Owono was sent off following a collision with Tenerife forward Jesus de Miguel, who tragically passed away the following day. The disciplinary committee from the Spanish football federation imposed the maximum punishment possible under current rules, as they could only consider the on-pitch offence rather than the tragic outcome. Cervera also noted that returning to training and preparing for upcoming matches has been tough and complicated for the team as they process the loss.
