Juventus became the latest club to pay its respects to Chapecoense, holding a moment of silence and darkening its stadium - aside from highlighting the advertising boards in the green of the Brazilian side - ahead of Saturday's match against Atalanta.

The scene was one of many on the day as the football world continues to mourn the loss of 19 Chapecoense members who were among the 71 people killed in a plane crash in Colombia earlier this week.

Brazilian left-back Alex Sandro opened the scoring at the Juventus Stadium, and, much like Edinson Cavani on Wednesday, unveiled a "Forca Chape" shirt commemorating his fallen peers.
