Liverpool star Diogo Jota and his brother Andre Silva were laid to rest at a church in Gondomar, near Porto, in Portugal on Saturday, a day after the two lost their lives in a car crash in Spain earlier this week. The accident took place around 12:30 am local time in the Spanish province of Zamora. According to the Spanish police, Jota's car veered off the road while trying to overtake another vehicle. A tyre blowout caused the car to lose control and catch fire. Sadly, both Jota and his brother died at the scene.
