AC Milan paid an emotional tribute to Kobe Bryant ahead of their Coppa Italia match with Torino at the San Siro.
Bryant and his 13-year-old daughter Gianna died along with seven other people in a helicopter crash in the Los Angeles hills on Sunday, and the Milan and Torino players wore black armbands in honour of the NBA great.
A video was displayed on the big screen showing photos and video clips of Bryant and his daughter, with the hashtag #SempreKobe (#AlwaysKobe).
Your memory will never fade, your legacy will last forever Ciao, Kobe! ❤#SempreKobe pic.twitter.com/ojj1Ky1s5Y

Both sets of supporters broke into applause in the 24th minute of the game, recognising the number Bryant wore in NBA.
