Liverpool striker Diogo Jota died in a car accident at the age of 28. Newcastle fans called on all fans to greet him when the home opening match was opened.
Newcastle Supporters Worldwide, Newcastle fan organization, said: "When Atsu (in the Great Turkey Earthquake) died a few years ago, when we played against Liverpool at home, they sang YNWA to show respect."
"We will now play against Liverpool in the first home game of the season, and we ask all fans who are present to watch the Liverpool game to sing YNWA together at the beginning of the game to express their respect for Jota."
