A minute's silence in memory of Diogo Jota was disturbed by a small portion of fans ahead of Liverpool's meeting with Crystal Palace for the Community Shield final at Wembley.

Sunday's match at Wembley marked the first time Liverpool have played competitively since Jota's death and tributes were held before kick-off.

But the silence was marred by a small number of Palace fans, who could be heard making noise.

Liverpool fans responded by booing angrily with referee Chris Kavanagh opting to cut the minute short slightly.
