Metro, based in Rio, say on their front page that 'Football is in mourning over the accident'


Rio-based paper Extra opted to keep things simple and went without a headline, instead publishing a full size image of a green ribbon in tribute to the disaster.

The grief isn't confined to the front pages of Brazilian papers. Every single club in Serie A, the country's top flight division, have changed their Twitter profile pictures in honour of Chapecoense.
