The soccer player Diogo Jota, wearing a red jersey and facing the crowd, forms a heart shape with his hands above his head. A quote attributed to the writer Andrew Jones reads: "To say he was and will remain adored by the Anfield faithful would be an understatement."
From @theathleticfc.bsky.social: Diogo Jota was a gifted attacker with a range of attributes. Yet football was only part of his story. Jota was beloved not just because of his prowess as a striker, but because of his warmth and friendliness as a human being. https://trib.al/68HtF5V
