00:01Shocked and grief-stricken, Liverpool fans have flocked to the home of the Reds to lay flowers outside Anfield for their fallen hero, Diogo Jota.
00:10A steady stream of hundreds of supporters have passed through Liverpool's stadium with the flag lowered to half-mast outside before making their way to an impromptu shrine outside the main stand.
00:23The area has become a sea of red and white flowers, scarves, t-shirts, a tribute from fans.
00:31Many supporters have stood somberly in silence wiping away tears, others swapping happy memories about the times the striker had scored to the light of the Kop.
00:42We've lost a member of the family and that is literally what it is. It's the team, the fans, we are one big family.
00:52And it seems the only natural place to come was home.
00:58We lost a good player and I've come down, seen loads of people today and had loads of chats and paid me respects.
01:07Just had to, had to come and pay me respects because it's just horrible. Just can't believe it.
01:13So young as well, so talented, so young. It just doesn't feel real.
01:19People were all of the same mindset. This is where they need to be. This is where we need to be together.
01:25So I've met a lady here today. We've had a big hug and a bit of a cry on each other. Yeah. Just had to, had to come.
01:35Liverpool head coach Onslaught insists everyone associated with the club owes it to Diogo Jota to stand together and be there for one another.
01:43Football is one of those things that it transcends the normal tribal rivalries when something tragic happens.
01:51And this will be another case. And I'm absolutely certain that you will see all sorts of colours of rosettes and scarves and banners and whatever mementos that people will leave because it could be any football club, couldn't it?
02:05Despite injuries, Jota was still able to make 37 appearances for slot in his first season in charge at Anfield.
02:11Jota scored 65 goals in 182 Liverpool appearances, nine coming last season as slot side won the Premier League title, having previously lifted the FA Cup and Carabao Cup.
02:24He signed for Wolves initially on loan from Atletico Madrid in 2017 and helped win the championship in his first season, ultimately scoring 44 goals in 131 appearances.
02:36I just think that football fans, they see people on the pitch and they become heroes, but also there's this connection, there's this emotional connection between fans and footballers.
02:49And at this club, obviously, I'd say big time, but the wider football family will have lost one of their sons as well as, unfortunately, the parents have lost two.
03:00So that needs to be great.
03:01So, look at that.
03:02So, now that's how many of us can be weakest, the parents have lost two.
03:03So, that's how many of us can win against each other.
03:04So, you can see the questions, but the parents have lost two.
03:05So, I'll just get started in the defensive lane.
03:06So, I'm not saying that all of us, we're going to be able to start to begin with a few times this season.
03:08So, we need to know the best of us, what we're going to do.
03:10So, I'll just say, what's going on?
03:11Let's start here.
03:12So, how many of us have some of us.
03:13So, what are we looking at the divilary teams that are going on?
03:14So,ats for example, theaurais will be the best of you, and it's not getting a big time.
