Unity in Tribute

Manchester United supporters are being encouraged to set aside historic rivalries to participate in a stadium-wide tribute for the late Diogo Jota during Sunday's crucial encounter with Liverpool.

The Proposed Tribute

The proposed minute's applause aims to honour the former Anfield forward following his tragic passing, reflecting a rare moment of unity between two of English football's fiercest competitors. The Manchester United supporters have initiated a plan to hold a minute's applause in the 20th minute of today's fixture, aligning with Jota's squad number at Anfield.

  • The tribute is set to take place during the 20th minute of the Manchester United vs Liverpool match.
  • The initiative was discussed with the Manchester United Supporters' Trust (MUST).
The plan has gained traction as a moving display of sportsmanship.

Club Acknowledgement
