Drone footage captures powerful outpouring of Jota tributes at Anfield

Drone footage captured the huge scale of powerful tributes to Diogo Jota from Liverpool fans at Anfield after the footballer was killed in a car crash in Spain on Thursday, 3 July.

The 28-year-old forward had been travelling in a Lamborghini with his brother Andre Silva when the car veered off the road and burst into flames following what police suspect was a tyre blowout while overtaking.

The incident happened just 11 days after Jota, a father of three, married his long-term partner, Rute Cardoso, in Porto, Portugal.

Flowers and Liverpool shirts were laid outside the stadium in tribute.
