We have all been completely shocked by the situation and, again, can only think of what this has meant to their family.

"What we see behind us and the overwhelming outpouring of support and emotion and grief and love — having a chance to walk down the row here and read the cards and read the messages, our anthem, You’ll Never Walk Alone, it does mean something.

"In this case, I think everybody just feels so passionately about making sure that we remember the two boys but also that we support their family, and we’re going to work through this together."

Hogan also spoke warmly about Jota, explaining his relationship with the 28-year-old.

"You could see his national teammates, Andre’s teammates, the wider friends and family, the impact they had — two special people that obviously are gone far too early."
