A heartfelt moment at Anfield as Diogo Jota's children were honored by walking onto the pitch alongside Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk before the Premier League match against Wolverhampton.
On 27 Dec 2025 GMT+7, a touching scene unfolded at Anfield during the Premier League match between Liverpool and Wolverhampton.
Before the whistle to start the game, Diogo Jota's children, honoring the late footballer, were given the privilege to walk onto the pitch alongside Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk.
This marked the first meeting between Liverpool and Wolverhampton, Jota’s former club, since his passing in July.
On the sidelines, Rute Cardoso, Jota’s wife, was present to share in this special moment.
Although the number 20 is no longer on the field, his name remains forever in the hearts of his family, club, and fans.
"You’ll never walk alone, Diogo."
