Friends and family of Liverpool footballer Diogo Jota were united in grief today as they gathered for the funeral of the 28-year-old forward.
Distraught loved ones gathered in Portugal for a heart-breaking service to bid a final farewell to the Portuguese star and his brother Andre Silva, 25, who both died following a car accident on Thursday.
Tearful mourners, including Jota's wife Rute Cardoso, were seen walking through the brothers' hometown of Gondomar as they made their way into the Igreja Matriz de Gondomar earlier today.
Rute, 28, who shares three young children with Jota - two boys and a girl -was dressed all in white, clutching a cream-coloured rose as she placed her hand on her husband’s casket as it was taken into the church.
