The two brothers, Diogo Jota and André Silva, are being laid to rest in the cemetery next to the church in their hometown of Gondomar - just a few metres away from where the funeral ceremony was held.

The cemetery, surrounded by olive trees, offers a peaceful and solemn setting for the final farewell.

The funeral procession has begun towards the cemetery, while relatives and friends accompany the coffins of the two deceased in silence and deep sorrow.

The sounds of the song "Ave Maria" are heard from the church's speakers, mingling with the sound of the bell ringing again - a quiet reminder of the eternity that comes after life.

The large crowd of attendees – family, friends, loved ones – walked slowly, leaning on each other for strength. The fans and citizens gathered outside accompanied them with heartfelt applause, as an act of respect for the lives and legacy left behind by Diogo and André.

This is the culmination of a day filled with strong emotions, where sport, family, and love for the deceased have come together in a shared moment of sadness and respect./Express newspaper/
