Following the tragic deaths of Portuguese footballer Diogo Jota and his brother André Silva, multiple football organizations and clubs have held moments of silence in their memory. UEFA announced that a minute of silence would be observed before all matches of the UEFA Women's Euro 2025 on July 3 and 4, including the Portugal vs. Spain match. Prominent clubs such as Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Chelsea, and Paris Saint-Germain observed minutes of silence ahead of training sessions and matches. The tribute extended to the FIFA Club World Cup quarter-finals, with a minute of silence held before matches including Fluminense vs. Al Hilal, Palmeiras vs. Chelsea, PSG vs. Bayern Munich, and Real Madrid vs. Borussia Dortmund. Portuguese players Ruben Neves and João Cancelo were notably emotional during these tributes, particularly at the Club World Cup, where they were seen in tears. The football community worldwide has united in honoring the memory of Diogo Jota and André Silva through these respectful moments of silence and commemorations.
