British rock legends Oasis honored Diogo Jota with a tribute during their Cardiff concert, as the football world and beyond continues to mourn the late Portuguese and Liverpool striker.
Diogo Jota’s passing has touched hearts far beyond football. At an emotional concert in Cardiff, British rock icons Oasis paid tribute to the late Portuguese striker, marking a rare public gesture during their first tour since 2009.
Liam and Noel Gallagher, both passionate football fans and lifelong Manchester City supporters, took a moment during the show to remember Jota, who died tragically in a car crash earlier this week alongside his brother André Silva.
The tribute came during the band’s performance of the classic anthem 'Live Forever'. As the song neared its end, a photo of Diogo Jota appeared on the giant screen behind the stage—drawing an emotional reaction from the crowd.
The Gallagher brothers, known for their love of football, were performing together for the first time since 2009. Their public reconciliation made headlines across the UK, and the tribute to Jota added a deeply human and heartfelt moment to their reunion show.
Jota’s death has shaken the football world, with tributes pouring in from players, clubs, and fans globally. Now, with this gesture from Oasis, the impact of his life has reached even further—into the world of music and pop culture.
The 28-year-old Liverpool forward will be laid to rest today in Gondomar, Portugal, his hometown. The funeral is expected to be attended by several of his Liverpool teammates, who will travel from England to pay their respects.
As the football and music worlds mourn side by side, Diogo Jota’s legacy continues to echo—in stadiums, in songs, and in the hearts of those who admired him.
