A tribute to former Liverpool forward Diogo Jota and his brother Andre Silva was disrupted when some fans at the Community Shield match failed to observe a moment’s silence.

Before the game between Liverpool and Crystal Palace at Wembley Stadium both teams and their staff stood silently to commemorate the brothers, who died in a car accident in Spain in July. A minority of Palace fans broke the silence, eliciting a strong response at the other end of the field as well as from other Eagles supporters who tried to silence those not respecting the tribute.
