He goes on to write that he has been warning for 10 years that the West has played into President Vladimir Putin’s hands “giving him an excuse to do what he…

Wayne Rooney fears Gareth Southgate’s decision to confess the decision to deploy Trent Alexander-Arnold in midfield as an ‘experiment’ will come back to haunt the England manager. The Three Lions have one foot in the last 16, but the nature of Thursday’s performance against Denmark has sparked serious concern. After somewhat fortuitously taking the lead through Harry Kane, England retreated into their collective shell, as they had done in their Group C opener against Serbia, and were punished by the impressive Danes. England were, ultimately, happy to escape with a draw that leaves them on four points ahead of their…

Morten Hjulmand’s stunning goal secured a deserved equaliser for the Danes…
