Saturday's charity match was the first legends' game since Jota's tragic passing in the summer, and Anfield, as it does at every Liverpool game, paid its respects

Liverpool legends' game against Dortmund paused briefly on the 20th minute for both sides to applaud in memory of the late Diogo Jota.

As is customary in the 20th minute of every Liverpool home game, fans stood up to clap in memory of Jota, who passed in July. The referee then instructed the ball to be kicked out so all players and the coaching staff could pay their respects.

Jurgen Klopp, the man who brought Jota to Liverpool, looked particularly emotional on the Anfield bench.

This is the first legends' match that has been held since Jota's death last year, and Klopp has spoken of the clubs' immense grief on several occasions.
