Tributes from around the soccer world continued to pour in on Thursday following the tragic news that Liverpool forward Diogo Jota and his brother, André Silva of Portuguese club F.C. Penafiel., were killed in a car crash in Spain.

UEFA announced that a moment of silence would be observed before games on Thursday and Friday at the Women’s EUROs in Switzerland. One of those games included Portugal’s opening match of the tournament against Spain in Bern.

Players from Belgium and Italy also both paid their respects to the brothers ahead of Thursday’s first match of the day.

The Spanish Civil Guard confirmed that both Jota and Silva were killed after their car went off the road near Zamora, Spain. The Lamborghini was found in flames and firefighters were called in to prevent the flames from spreading.

Police are investigating the cause of the crash. Investigators are unsure who was driving the car, and are looking into whether a blown tire resulted in the crash, which occurred shortly after midnight local time.

Jota, 28, made 49 appearances with Portugal’s senior national team. Silva, 25, played professionally in Portugal with Gondomar S.C. and F.C. Penafiel.

“We have lost two champions,” read a statement from the Portuguese Football Federation. “Their deaths represent irreparable losses for Portuguese football, and we will do everything we can to honour their legacy every day.”
