After the game, Trent Alexander-Arnold spoke to DAZN about his former Liverpool team-mate Diogo Jota.

💬 “Of course, first and foremost I want to send my condolences, my love, my thoughts and prayers to the family of a close friend of mine. It has been very difficult for me personally and the ones that knew him. Not just team-mates and friends and family but the footballing world. Some things are bigger than the game.

“It has been difficult but it has been heartwarming to see the footballing world come together to show their love and support to him and his family and obviously his brother as well.

“So, although it has been difficult it has also been a nice (reaction) from everyone, all the clubs and all the people showing love and support for what must be a mind-blowingly hard time for the family. I have been in and around him and his brother, his family, his amazing wife, his parents, his three children. So it is truly heartbreaking to wake up to news like that. It is something that you would never, ever expect.

“He was a very close friend. Somebody who lit up a room when he was in it. I shared a dressing room with him for five years, amazing memories on and off the pitch with him. It goes without saying that he will never be forgotten by anyone. He will live long in our memories for the amazing man and player he was.”
