The Portuguese Football Federation paid tribute this Tuesday to Diogo Jota, André Silva, and Jorge Costa, at the City of Football.

Rúben Neves gave a speech in which he remembered his best friend and thanked the gesture of the Portuguese entity. The Al Hilal midfielder also assured that Diogo Jota will not be forgotten, addressing words to Rute Cardoso, the parents of the two players, and the relatives of Jorge Costa.

"On my behalf and on behalf of the entire National Team, I want to give a word of comfort to all the family and friends of Jorge Costa, as well as to FC Porto. Especially for me, and because I feel a bit part of this family, I want to give a word of great strength to Rute and the parents of Diogo and André. As I said before, we, the entire team, will do everything to keep Diogo always present with us. Thank you, Jorge, André, and Diogo. Forever in our hearts," he said.

Also present at the ceremony were Luís Montenegro and Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, who also made interventions.
