Harry Maguire salvaged Erik ten Hag’s job with a stoppage-time equaliser in a dramatic 3-3 Europa League draw with Porto. During a remarkable game in which the Red Devils led 2-0, fell 3-2 behind, had Bruno Fernandes sent off for the second game in a row and then drew level in added-time, there remained some seriously concerning moments for Ten Hag’s side. The Red Devils are yet to win in their opening two Europa League fixtures. The performance in their 1-1 draw with FC Twente at Old Trafford last week was poor, but at times this display reached new lowly ... Read more

England interim boss Lee Carsley has admitted to being “out of his comfort zone” after his first two games in charge. A brace from Harry Kane at Wembley continued the 50-year-old’s perfect start since taking over from Gareth Southgate, with the Three Lions beating Finland 2-0. It followed Saturday’s win by the same scoreline over Ireland in Dublin, with England going into next month’s home game with Greece on six points in their Nations League group. And afterwards, Carsley was pressed on how he has coped with the spotlight since stepping up from the under-21 squad. “I definitely don’t feel ... Read more

Chelsea are reportedly set to lower their asking price for Carney Chukwuemeka. The 20-year-old joined the Blues from Aston Villa in a deal reportedly worth £20million in 2022. The midfielder was offered a six-year contract with the club and a significant pay rise, which he accepted. However, the deal offered to the playmaker is now causing Chelsea issues. According to The Sun, the Blues are struggling to find suitors for Chukwuemeka due to his financial demands and they are therefore considering entertaining offers below the £40m release clause of the midfielder. Enzo Maresca’s side are hoping that a lower valuation ... Read more

Max Verstappen has been spotted sharing an intense chat with Red Bull race engineer Gianpiero Lambiase a week after their heated radio messages. The duo appeared to be laughing together in a sign that their relationship was now cordial. Verstappen was furious with his team’s strategy at last weekend’s Hungarian Grand Prix, dubbing it “s***” in a blunt radio message. He also fumed after feeling he was undercut by McLaren’s Lando Norris. “Okay, so you can just run people off the track then? You can tell the FIA that’s how we’re going to race from now on – just run ... Read more

HERE WE GO. The players walk out of the tunnel to a cauldron of noise from both sets of fans. It seems the English supporters are vastly outnumbering their Spanish counterparts. God Save The King gets a rousing rendition before the national anthem of Spain is belted out with a deafening roar. The talking stops now. It’s time for heroes. Time for mere mortals to become legends. Here’s a final reminder of the two teams… England: Pickford, Walker, Guehi, Stones, Saka, Mainoo, Rice, Shaw, Foden, Bellingham, Kane. Spain: Simon, Carvajal, Le Normand, Laporte, Cucurella, Rodri, Fabian Ruiz, Olmo, Yamal, Williams, ... Read more

Former Everton boss Ronald Koeman has told Liverpool that Cody Gakpo’s best position is on the left wing. The Dutch forward has not had a settled position at Anfield, contributing to some inconsistent form since his 2022 switch from PSV. Gakpo has been one of the stars of Euro 2024 for Koeman’s Netherlands team. The Liverpool man has scored three goals in four appearances at the tournament. His excellent performances have come on the left of a three-man attack. Of his 53 appearances for Liverpool last season, 27 of them came as a centre-forward. Gakpo started only 12 of them ...
