On Friday afternoon, Portugal's national team coach Martinez issued a statement on the death of Jota's car accident, remembering the national team member.

Martinez: "We are all shocked by this tragedy. We are extremely sad, and all our thoughts are dedicated to Diogo Jota's wife Rut, their three children, and other family and friends of Jota and Andre Silva."

"In the national team, we have built a family that is far beyond the scope of football, and Diogo is an indispensable part of this family, both on and off the court. His professionalism and beliefs are both contagious and exemplary."

"On the court, Diogo put on his jersey with pride, and his performance in the penalty area is world-class."

"We feel the pain of his family, and in this tragedy, we also question life itself. Portugal will miss one of our heroes."
