On July 4, FIFA officially announced that it would commemorate the Jota brothers for one minute before the Club World Cup quarterfinals held on July 4 (Friday) and July 5 (Saturday). At the same time, the FIFA headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland will also lower the flag to mourn at half a flag.

It is worth noting that among the teams currently reaching the top 8 of the Club World Cup, there are many teammates of Jota at Liverpool Club and Portugal's national team. Such as Neves, Neto, Vitinia, Nuno Mendes, Arnold, etc. Ruta's death will definitely have a great impact on their mentality.

28-year-old Portuguese scorer Jota had a car accident in Spain early yesterday morning, and the Liverpool striker and his younger brother Andre both passed away. It is heartbreaking that on the 22nd of last month, Jota also took advantage of the summer vacation to announce that he had officially entered the marriage hall with his childhood sweetheart girlfriend. The two have already had three children. Now that Ruota's death is a huge blow to the mother and son.

Jota, born on December 4, 1996, joined Liverpool from Wolves for a transfer fee of 44.7 million euros. In five seasons with the Reds, he made 182 appearances, scored 65 goals and 26 assists.

In five years, he helped Liverpool win one Premier League, two League Cups and one FA Cup championship. Last season, Jota scored 6 goals and gave 3 assists for Liverpool in 26 games. Although Jota is not Liverpool's absolute main player, he has made contributions to the bench after making a substitute. After Jota's sudden death, it will undoubtedly have a significant impact on Liverpool's forward line in the new season.
