Famous soccer player Diogo Jota dies at 28

For context, we probably haven't seen an athlete at this magnitude die since Kobe Bryant.

He got married 2 weeks ago, and had 3 young children. Someone who seemed like one of the few players who was very down to earth, humble, and a great player. Life is short. Very short. And unpredictable. Cherish your loved ones whilst you can, because you may regret it.

One of my greatest fears is something like this happening to one of our players. Just because of a simple tyre blow out, something that can happen to anybody. This news is just so sad.
 
Honestly devastated. Big LFC fan and was a huge fan of Jota’s. I loved how he played the game and loved how he would play FIFA hours into the night. Made him more “human” and relatable.
