A morte de um chefe de estado sempre é motivo de comoção para uma nação. No caso da Grã Bretanha, que por longos 70 anos e 127 dias, teve apenas um governante à frente da nação, a comoção entre todos no país é ainda maior.
A Premier League, primeira divisão do Campeonato Inglês, lamentou a morte da Rainha Elizabeth II, após a oficialização da morte feita pelo Palácio de Buckingham, nesta quinta-feira (8). Outros clubes do futebol inglês também já demonstraram luto pelo falecimento da monarca.
