Oasis’ first support act, Cast, have shared a moving tribute to the late Diogo Jota as they took to the stage for the opening night of the huge stadium tour
Cast have halted their performance on the Oasis tour to share a moving tribute to the late Diogo Jota.
While on stage, Liverpudlian singer John Power, who is a huge fan of his hometown’s team dedicated their track Walkaway to the late Liverpool FC footballer, Diogo, who died on Thursday. He said “This is Walkaway. This one is for Diogo Jota. Take it easy brother.”
The footballer and his brother tragically died after a fatal car crash in Spain, just ten days after he married his wife, Rute Cardoso.
Diogo and his brother Andre spun off the road before their car caught fire. One of the tyres had blown out while overtaking another car on the A-52, around 70 miles west of Valladolid, causing it to veer off the road. The incident occurred at around 12.40am. The blaze had spread to nearby vegetation which was eventually put out by firefighters, with the assistance from the Civil Guard.
Medical officials later confirmed the death of the two occupants of the car shortly after arriving on the scene.
