Patch, mosaic and more: Liverpool pay tribute to Jota in friendly | OneFootball

The friendly match between Liverpool and Milan held this Saturday (26th) provided another opportunity to pay tribute to Diogo Jota.

The English club took to the field wearing a patch in honor of the Portuguese player who died earlier this month in a car accident.

The match took place in Hong Kong and, shortly before kickoff, Liverpool fans created a mosaic displaying the Portuguese player’s initials alongside the number he wore for the Anfield team.

A club legend, Kenny Dalglish was present at the stadium and laid a wreath near the stands where the mosaic was displayed.

Once the match began, Rafael Leão scored one of the goals and also paid tribute to his former Portuguese national teammate by showing the number 20 with his hands.
