Fans of Saudi Pro League side Al-Taawoun received a two-match stadium ban, and the club was fined 100,000 riyal (£19,800) after supporters engaged in tragedy chanting about the late forward Diogo Jota. The incident occurred during Al-Taawoun's match against Al-Hilal, targeting Ruben Neves, Jota's former Wolves and Portugal teammate. Neves, who wears the number 21 jersey for Portugal in Jota's memory and has a tattoo of him, responded by gesturing towards the sky. Cristiano Ronaldo, a prominent figure in the Saudi Pro League, publicly condemned the behavior on Instagram, stating that the league must take action and ban such fans from stadiums permanently. The chanting referenced the tragic deaths of Diogo Jota and his brother Andre Silva. Many argue the punishment is too lenient for the severity of the offense, which has drawn global attention and further marred the Saudi Pro League's image.
