Lionel Messi has joined the global football community in mourning the tragic loss of Liverpool forward Diogo Jota.
The Argentina captain shared a photo of Jota on his social media accounts with the words “QEPD” – the Spanish abbreviation for “Que en paz descanse” meaning “May he rest in peace.”
Messi’s simple yet powerful gesture reflects the profound sadness felt across the sport after Jota and his brother André were killed in a car accident in Spain on July 3.
The tribute from one of football’s greatest players underscores Jota’s impact not just as a footballer but as a respected figure among his peers. Messages of condolence have poured in from players, clubs, and fans worldwide since the devastating news broke.

What is life altogether? Life without Jesus is hopeless and life with all money and riches without Jesus is Vanity. This loss is a call for all of us to remember that after life is death and after death is Judgment. Remember your creator in the days of your youth (Eccl 12:1-2). REST IN PEACE BROTHER THE FOOTBALL WORLD MISS YOU ALREADY 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
