Dembele Honors Jota with Iconic Celebration After Scoring Against Bayern Munich

in

Paris Saint-Germain secured a 2-0 victory over Bayern Munich in the quarterfinals of the FIFA Club World Cup, and Ousmane Dembele stole the spotlight with an emotional celebration dedicated to the late Diogo Jota. Scoring in the 90+6th minute, Dembele sealed PSG’s win with a crucial second goal, before performing Jota’s trademark celebration—sitting on the grass pretending to play PlayStation. This heartfelt tribute brought back memories of the Portuguese winger, who tragically passed away in a car accident in Zamora, Spain, along with his friend Andre Silva. The somber news had deeply affected the football world, and Dembele’s gesture was a touching homage during a moment of triumph. The pair were laid to rest last Saturday in Gondomar, Portugal, amid a deeply emotional farewell.
