Real Madrid fans in the Santiago
Bernabéu along with the players of their team and those of Celta Vigo
have paid their respects to the memory of Eusebio da Silva Ferreira, who
died yesterday, with a respectful minute's silence before Monday
night's match in the Spanish capital.
Meanwhile in the Estadio de La Luz in Lisbon there was an
unforgettable farewell for the "king" of Portuguese football. Real
Madrid and Celta Vigo joined in with their own tribute before the match
to pay their respects after the unexpected loss of the football legend.
The minute’s silence in the Santiago Bernabéu was particularly
poignant for Cristiano Ronaldo who has lost a friend, and it was
perfectly respected by the near 55,000 spectators that were already in
their seats.
The stadium scoreboard showed images from Eusebio's career as a
player and his visits to the famous old stadium with solemn music
playing in the background.
