Erik ten Hag reacts to Man Utd star’s Euro 2024 snub | Football Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag suggested Marcus Rashford deserved to be omitted from Gareth Southgate’s England squad for Euro 2024 after his poor club form last season. Alongside former Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson, Rashford represented the big-name casualty from Southgate’s original 33-man training squad. It came after a season blighted with off-field incidents where the forward scored just eight goals in all competitions having netted 30 times the season prior. Other stalwarts of Southgate’s England side in recent years, including Manchester City’s Jack Grealish, were left…

Gary Neville slams Arsenal player over Euro 2024 error | Football Gary Neville has criticised Arsenal defender Kieran Tierney for ‘getting carried away’ during Scotland’s harrowing Euro 2024 defeat to Germany. Scotland almost suffered the heaviest Euros defeat of all time as they were thrashed 5-1 by tournament hosts Germany on Friday night. Florian Wirtz, Jamal Musial, Kai Havertz, Niclas Fullkrug and Emre Can all got on the scoresheet as Germany ripped through the Scots to clinch their biggest ever Euros win. Scotland’s cause was not helped by Ryan Porteous’ first-half red card, with the Watford defender dismissed and conceding…

England ace’s display v Serbia ‘deeply worrying’, says Jamie Carragher | Football Jamie Carragher has labelled Harry Kane’s anonymous first-half performance against Serbia ‘deeply worrying’ and believes England have no chance of winning Euro 2024 should their skipper continue in the same vein. England got off to a dream start in their opening group-stage contest as Jude Bellingham opened the scoring with a thumping 13th-minute header beyond Predrag Rajkovic, but that was as good as it got for the Three Lions in Gelsenkirchen. Kane had a header of his own pushed onto the crossbar by Rajkovic before Jordan Pickford denied…

Euro fans left to stay in ‘dungeon-like abandoned medical facility’ | UK News A football fan on a trip to the Euros says Booking.com sent him and his friends to stay at an abandoned medical facility that looked like something out of a horror film. Glaswegian Rory Bradley, 28, and three mates have travelled to Germany to watch Scotland play in this year’s tournament and spent more than £2,000 on accommodation through the popular hotel booking site. There were no issues with their first place, but when they arrived in Düren the accommodation was ‘an absolute mess’, said Rory, with…

Joe Hart’s tattoos caught the eye on Euro 2024 punditry duty Joe Hart made his first appearance as a BBC pundit at Euro 2024 on Sunday night, but it was his ‘armour-like’ tattoos – rather than his pre-match analysis – that caught viewers’ eyes. The former England goalkeeper was announced as a pundit for this summer’s tournament in Germany having hung up the gloves at the end of last season. Hart featured on coverage prior to England’s narrow 1-0 win against Serbia in Gelsenkirchen but eagled-eyed viewers and fans on social media were more interested in the unusual tattoos on…

Jamie Carragher has named the team England must avoid to stand any chance of winning Euro 2024. Gareth Southgate’s side kick-started their Euros campaign with a nervy 1-0 win over Serbia on Sunday night. Jude Bellingham’s 13th-minute header gave the Three Lions the perfect start in Germany and, despite some late Serbia pressure, England held on to move to the top of Group C. England are aiming to win their first major trophy since 1966, having reached the latter stages of the last two World Cups and previous Euros, when they suffered a penalty shootout defeat to Italy in the…

Teresa Marshall de Paoli, 88, who was with the Marquess of Ailesbury for 37 years, said the 98-year-old fell out of a first floor window while letting out their cat, Honeybun. He was found bleeding from the head on the patio of her west London home last month, on May 12. The family of the Marquess, also known as Michael Brudenell-Bruce…

How an explosion 50 years ago nearly destroyed the Houses of Parliament | UK News Fifty years ago, the House of Commons descended into darkness and chaos after an explosion went off in the heart of the chambers. A 9.1 kg bomb was planted in Westminster Palace by the IRA, injuring 11 people and signalling the start of a renewed bombing campaign in England. It took just seconds for a fire to begin ripping through the heart of the UK’s democracy, with the 900-year-old central hall at the heart of the attack. The year of 1974 was already one the…

‘They take no prisoners’: Dive-bombing crows haunt London street | UK News The crow might have thought David Cooper’s black coat was a rival, prompting it to swoop down and attack. ‘Suddenly I felt this thing yank at the hood, and then the fluttering of wings on the back of my head,’ the finance worker, 50, told Metro. David fell victim to south London’s most notorious angry bird, which has gone viral in the affluent suburb for terrorising cyclists and pedestrians. ‘I had no idea what was going on and I turned and ran,’ he explained. ‘I stopped and I…
