The sporting world has paid tribute to Tenerife footballer Jesus de Miguel, who died after a horrific on-pitch collision.
The 30-year-old collapsed after Andorra keeper Jesus Owono collided with him as he was running up the pitch.
De Miguel challenged for the ball in midfield when Owono charged into him in the seventh minute of stoppage time.
Owono was shown a straight red card as players gathered around the fallen forward.
CD Tenerife and FC Andorra players frantically motioned for medics to aid De Miguel as he lay motionless.
Staff treated the forward on the pitch for five minutes before rushing him to hospital as the match was abandoned.
Tenerife warned that De Miguel's "medical condition has worsened neurologically" after he was hospitalised, just hours before his death.
