Liverpool and Wolverhampton Wanderers honoured the late Diogo Jota in an emotional tribute.
Denis and Duarte, two of Jota's three children joined the match-day mascots on the pitch before their Premier League game on Saturday, December 27.
Diogo and his brother Andre Silva died on July, 2025 when their car went off the road and caught fire on the A-52 motorway in Cernadilla, a town in the Zamora province of Spain.
The game marked the first meeting between Jota’s former clubs since his passing.
Jota's sons, along with other young family members led the Liverpool team onto the pitch, walking ahead of captain Virgil van Dijk.
Jota's wife, Rute Cardoso, whom he married just days before the accident after being together for nine years, was also in attendance.
Before the match started, fans in the Kop stand held up a banner that said, "Diogo Jota, forever in our hearts,” to honour him.
Meanwhile, Wolves fans chanted his name and in the 20th minute–which represents his shirt number–everyone at Anfield stood and applauded while Liverpool fans sang a tribute to Jota.
After the tragedy, Liverpool also permanently retired his jersey No 20 across the entire club including Liverpool Women and all youth academy.
