Wolves manager Rob Edwards was seen joining in with the mid-game tribute to the late Diogo Jota during their match against Liverpool on Tuesday night.The Reds have made their first visit to Molineux since the tragic death of the Portuguese forward – who represented both of these clubs with distinction – in a car crash in northern Spain eight months ago.In the 18th minute of tonight’s match, the home fans broke into applause as they remembered their former player, who wore that particular shirt number for the Old Gold, and the away supporters swiftly joined in – as did the man in the hosts’ technical area.Edwards joins in with applause in memory of Diogo JotaAdam Bate has been providing updates from Molineux for Sky Sports‘ live web commentary, and he noticed Edwards joining in with the stadium-wide tribute to Jota while the match was in progress.The reporter noted: “The minutes of the tributes to Diogo Jota are prolonged here because he wore the No. 18 shirt for Wolves and the No. 20 shirt for Liverpool.
