The football world is in deep mourning over the death of Diogo Jota and his brother Andre Silva. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
On Thursday, the players were killed in a horrific road accident in Spain. On Saturday, a funeral ceremony for Jota and Silva was held in Gondomar.
Players from Liverpool and other clubs came to pay their respects, as they had played alongside Jota. Rubén Neves from Al-Hilal arrived in Portugal for the funeral immediately after a match at the Club World Cup in the USA.

This loss remains a deep source of grief for players and fans alike. The football world expresses its condolences over the early departure of two young and talented players.
