Tributes mount as more fans visit Liverpool stadium to pay tribute to forward Jota
Hundreds of football fans came to Anfield stadium on July 3, 2025 to pay tribute to the club's forward Diogo Jota. Jota and his brother died in a car crash in northwestern Spain early on July 3, when their Lamborghini veered off the road and burst into flames. Evidence at the crash site suggested Jota's car suffered a burst tire while overtaking, police said. The vehicle then flipped over and ended up in the central reservation. The crash occurred around 00:30 a.m. (2230 GMT) in the province of Zamora. Tributes to the 28-year-old poured in from national leaders, football presidents, his teammates and clubs, while in Liverpool, devastated fans wept and laid flowers outside Anfield stadium for a man who weeks earlier had celebrated winning the Premier League with the team.
