Jesus de Miguel was taken to hospital in stable condition after a serious injury brought Tenerife's home match against Andorra to a halt on Monday. The 30-year-old striker was injured in added time and the referee later abandoned the Spanish second division match after showing Jesus Owono a straight red card.
The incident came seven minutes into stoppage time with the score locked at 2-2, turning a routine ending into an emergency response inside Estadio Heliodoro Rodriguez Lopez. De Miguel was motionless on the pitch as medical staff treated him, then left by ambulance for the University Hospital of Nuestra Senora de Candelaria, where Tenerife said he remained stable despite the severity of his condition.
Spanish media, including Marca, reported that De Miguel suffered injuries to his head and chest after a collision with Owono, who had run toward the centre circle to clear a long ball when his knee appeared to strike the Tenerife forward. The report that he was in intensive care added to the concern, but the club's statement pointed to a difficult picture that was serious without being immediately worse than first feared.
That is the part that now matters most: the emergency was severe enough to stop the game, but not severe enough, at least for now, to move beyond a stable condition. Players from both teams were visibly distressed, and a number of De Miguel's team-mates were in tears as the match was called off, a stark end to a fixture that had been level and tense until the final minutes.
Tenerife won promotion back to Spain's Segunda Division in May 2026, which is why this Monday night carried the added weight of a club trying to build momentum in the division it had just returned to. Andorra said it wanted to send all its strength and best wishes to De Miguel after the serious incident, but the immediate question is not the result or the red card. It is how he comes through the hours after emergency treatment, and whether the stable condition reported on Monday holds as doctors assess the full extent of the injury.
