35 secs: Mbeumo loops a cross in from the right. Fernandes wafts a header wide right. A bit more pace on either and United were off to a flyer.
Everyone takes a knee to send out the message that there’s No Room For Racism … then the hosts kick off. Brighton are kicking towards the Stretford End in this first half.
There is another name that is not be on the England team sheet today and that is the defender Millie Bright. She announced her international retirement before this camp. Read more about it here:
The Celebrity Traitors is a huge hit in the UK at the moment and it’s got me thinking who would be a good traitor in women’s football? I think Lucy Bronze would be good, of course she played the entire Euros without us knowing her leg was broken. What are your thoughts? Email me and let me know.
It began so well for Chelsea. They led through Alejandro Garnacho’s first goal for the club and looked set to rise to two points behind Arsenal at the top of the table. They did not reckon with Sunderland’s defiance.
Sunderland have been a wonderful addition to the Premier League this season. This was their best result since coming up. They levelled through Wilson Isidor and celebrated a famous win when the substitute, Chemsdine Talbi, scored the winner in added time.
England’s attacking frailties were exposed and punished by a ruthless Australia as the tourists swept to a worryingly straightforward victory in the opening Test of the Ashes.
Shaun Wane’s side had spoken effusively about their motivation going into the first Ashes for 22 years and they were certainly not short on endeavour at Wembley. However, in the crucial moments, it was the world champions who showed more composure in front of a record attendance for an Ashes Test in the UK of more than 60,000.
In a BBC interview, former vice-president says she isn’t done with politics and could ‘possibly’ be the next president
Kamala Harris says she is not done with politics and strongly suggested that she is considering another bid for president in a new interview.
In an interview scheduled to air on the BBC on Sunday morning, Harris says that she would “possibly” be the next president, making the clearest suggestion to date that she will make another run for the White House in 2028 despite lagging far behind in the polls.
The art detective Arthur Brand on why thieves may have targeted the Louvre jewellery and why time is of the essence if it is to be found in one piece
It took less than 10 minutes. At 9.30am on Sunday, four men arrived in a truck outside the Louvre in Paris, driving right up under a balcony and setting up a ladder with a furniture hoist. Two of them casually climbed up to the balcony and cut through the reinforced glass of a window; on the other side of the glass was the Apollo gallery, the most ornate and arguably the most beautiful room in the museum, Helen Pidd hears. Using an angle grinder, they broke into cases holding France’s crown jewels, before escaping back down the ladder and disappearing on motorbikes.
The audacious burglary of one of the most famous museums in the world has shocked France, especially because the jewels had been bought back for the nation after originally being sold, reports the Guardian’s Paris correspondent, Angelique Chrisafis.
The Western Conference’s No 1 seed can become the second expansion team to win MLS Cup
As San Diego FC prepare for their first playoff appearance this Sunday, they do so with the deserved title of record breakers. The expansion club has earned the Western Conference’s No 1 seed and set records for most victories (19) and points (63) in a single season by an MLS expansion team. As a result, they will be at home for the remainder of the playoffs, and would host MLS Cup if they make it there and meet anyone other than Inter Miami, Cincinnati, or the Supporters’ Shield-winning Philadelphia Union.
Now, they’re aiming for more history – to become the first expansion side to win MLS Cup since 1998 when the Chicago Fire achieved it against DC United.

Experts say there has been an 80% drop-off since serial killing peaked in the US in the 1970s – but that hasn’t stopped social media speculation
For the past two years, rumors of a serial killer have preoccupied residents of Austin, Texas, and beyond as body upon body kept turning up at a lake in the city. The killer was even given a name: the Rainey Street Ripper.
But authorities now say some 36 drownings in the lake, near Rainey Street neighborhood, were probably related to alcohol and drug consumption and the reservoir’s proximity to the city’s famous bar scene.
The president’s mega-project raises a lot of questions – including when he’s planning on leaving
Donald Trump has quite the passion for American history. If there’s a controversial statue commemorating a dead white supremacist out there, there’s a good chance the president has gone to bat for it.
“Sad to see the history and culture of our great country being ripped apart with the removal of our beautiful statues and monuments,” Trump tweeted in 2017, in response to a push to remove Confederate monuments. “You can’t change history, but you can learn from it. Robert E Lee, Stonewall Jackson – who’s next, Washington, Jefferson? So foolish!” Trump added.
Landmark meeting in Westminster hears from string of relatives who say laws are not being used to pursue prosecutions
Every suicide in which the deceased has been a victim of domestic violence should be investigated as a potential homicide, according to campaigners who want see abusers held to account for the devastating effects of their actions.
The move was necessary because police and prosecutors were not doing enough to bring perpetrators to justice in cases of suicide after domestic abuse, the said.
Eighty-nine years after residents drove Oswald Mosley’s Blackshirts from Tower Hamlets, anti-far right coalition is still vital in borough
“The East End of London is the far right’s prime target – the essence of everything they don’t like. They feel if they can march through our borough with impunity, they can go anywhere. For them, it’s like Wembley (stadium), it’s the ultimate goal,” said Glyn Robbins, co-founder of United East End, an anti-far right coalition of community organisations.
In the East End, the historically working-class neighbourhoods in the shadow of the City of London, there’s a feeling that history is repeating itself. It was 89 years ago this month that local people, many of them British Jews, drove out Oswald Mosley’s Blackshirt militia from Whitechapel in the East End, in what has become known as the Battle of Cable Street.
Executives at world’s biggest datacenter owner grappled with disclosing information about water used to help power facilities
Amazon strategised about keeping the public in the dark over the true extent of its datacentres’ water use, a leaked internal document reveals.
The biggest owner of datacentres in the world, Amazon dwarfs competitors Microsoft and Google and is planning a huge increase in capacity as part of a push into artificial intelligence. The Seattle firm operates hundreds of active facilities, with many more in development despite concerns over how much water is being used to cool their vast arrays of circuitry.
Lucy Powell has won Labour’s deputy leadership election, beating her rival Bridget Phillipson, as she said the party would not win by trying to “out-Reform Reform”.
Powell, who was the Commons leader until she was sacked in Keir Starmer’s reshuffle at the start of September, was seen as the favourite throughout the contest. She won 87,407 votes, 54% of those cast, while Phillipson received 73,536. Turnout of eligible voters was 16.6%.
“My response and sort of counsel to myself was to stay calm, and let’s see what happens, because there was no indication given as to how, why, when this potential shift would occur,” said Cheryl Anderson, an American Heart Association board member and professor at the University of California, San Diego’s school of public health and human longevity science.
New book, published just before the ceasefire deal, describes in granular detail the conditions for dismantling apartheid in Israel-Palestine
While languishing in prison during Benito Mussolini’s fascist reign in Italy, Antonio Gramsci wrote in his Prison Notebooks about an “interregnum”, a transition between the old order that was dying and a new order that had yet to be born. That in-between time was, he wrote, “a time of monsters”.
Those words, a “time of monsters”, could be used to describe the period of death and destruction unleashed in the two years since 7 October 2023, in the narrow strip of land comprising the Gaza Strip. If the deal reached between Israel and Hamas that was brokered by Donald Trump continues to hold, it raises questions about what type of future awaits the lands between the river and the sea – an Israeli-government and settler-controlled land mass that both Israelis and Palestinians inhabit, which represents Israel’s apartheid-based one-state reality.

As the country’s metal mining ban is lifted, rural communities fear a return of the contamination, violence and water shortages that cost so many lives and livelihoods in the past
Set off the main road through San Isidro, El Salvador, an old gate sits locked by a chain. Across its rusted metal wire mesh are emblazoned the words: “Private property, entry forbidden.” A bus stop outside is covered with faded black and yellow posters. Though peeling with age, their message can still be read: “No to mining – yes to life.”

The 69-year-old man plunged 7 metres from an outer wall after becoming unwell and losing his balance
A Japanese tourist has died after falling from the outer wall of the Pantheon in Rome.
The man, 69, had been sitting on the wall before he plunged 7 metres into the ancient landmark’s moat on Friday night, the Italian news agency, Ansa, reported.
The US president’s reversal was as capricious as his original plan. What if local billionaires had urged him to stick with it?
This story was published in collaboration with Mission Local.
The mayor of San Francisco said on Thursday that Donald Trump had simply called him – no go-betweens or consigliere required – and told him there would no longer be a deployment of federal agents or troops to the city.

Poor showing in Sunday’s election would deal hammer blow to country’s radical libertarian president, Javier Milei
Argentina’s radical libertarian leader, Javier Milei, is facing a pivotal moment in his presidency with voters set to deliver their verdict on his two-year-old administration on Sunday against a backdrop of political and economic crisis and accusations that his ally Donald Trump is meddling in the country’s affairs.
A poor showing in Sunday’s midterm election would be a hammer blow to Milei, who took power in December 2023 pledging to kickstart “a new era of peace and prosperity” by slashing spending and inflation.
As costs and demand for chocolate rises – but cocoa yields fall – companies are innovating with surprising alternatives
Rice is not the first ingredient most people associate with confectionery and desserts, but a UK company is using it to create cocoa-free chocolate.
It is part of an emerging trend in which chocolate makers are exploring alternative ingredients and new technologies to make their products more sustainable and reduce reliance on conventional cacao beans.
He’s an old-fashioned movie star in a digital age, making box-office smashes like Top Gun: Maverick, Twisters and Anyone But You. Now he’s lining up projects with everyone from Ron Howard to Edgar Wright. Could he be Texas’s answer to Tom Cruise?
There’s that famous line in the first episode of The Sopranos, where Tony laments his place in the timeline. “Lately I’m getting the feeling,” he confides, “that I came in at the end. The best is over.” I know Tony was talking about the mindful joy of building an incredibly violent organised crime enterprise from the ground up – but lately I’ve been thinking about his words every time I watch Glen Powell giving it 200% as a movie star. Glen Powell is Hollywood’s hottest mid-level actor; but because of the harsh realities of modern movie stardom, a lot of people still don’t know who he is. You get the feeling he’s coming in at the end of something.
Yet barely a week goes by where I don’t hear of an uncast starring role – the bodyguard in the Bodyguard remake, the cybercriminal in the Matrix remake, the hot soldier in the Starship Troopers remake – and not think: tell you what, Glen Powell could do that for you. Glen Powell could deliver that. He’s not going to turn up late to set, he’s going to work harder than anyone else, he’s going to promote the arse out of it – and if all that can open a wormhole back to the era when literally everyone knew who movie stars were, then Glen Powell is sure as hell going to take the opportunity. He is, quite simply, a one-man cargo cult for Hollywood’s vanished primacy.
