The bodies of Diogo Jota and his brother were greeted by heartbroken supporters and applause as their coffins arrived at a church in Portugal ahead of their funeral.
Mourners will gather early this morning to pay their respects at a wake in Gondomar after Jota, 28, and his sibling died in a fiery crash in the early hours on Thursday.
Dozens were already standing outside at the church last night and tears rolled down their faces as the hearses transporting the two bodies arrived after 11pm.
Jose Manuel Macedo, the local parish priest, said the wake would take place at 8am at the nearby Capela de Ressurreicao before their funeral at the Igreja Matriz, the Catholic church next door, on Saturday morning at 10am.
