England v Argentina, Atlanta Stadium, Wednesday 20:00 BSTWhat to watch out for: This will be England’s second World Cup semi-final since 2018, but defending champions Argentina stand in the Three Lions’ way of a first appearance in the final in 60 years.It’s a fixture fraught with passion and rivalry – falling 40 years after Diego Maradona almost single-handedly dumped England out in the quarter-final stage in Mexico.This time, Argentina have another superstar number 10 in their ranks. Lionel Messi has never faced England, and what bigger stage to do so for the first time than in a World Cup semi-final.…
Murat Yakin slammed the “absolutely incomprehensible” decision to send off Breel Embolo during Switzerland’s World Cup quarter-final defeat by Argentina. Nati bowed out of the tournament after going down 3-1 against the reigning champions after extra-time in Kansas City. Having fallen behind to Alexis Mac Allister’s early header, Switzerland had momentum following Dan Ndoye’s equaliser midway through the second half. However, that momentum stalled soon after when Embolo was shown a second yellow card for simulation following a VAR review. The striker, who left the pitch in tears, appeared to initiate contact with Argentina midfielder Leandro Paredes, whose initial yellow card enabled VAR…
England boss Thomas Tuchel says Declan Rice spent most of the three days before their World Cup quarter-final win against Norway in bed with sickness.Rice started the 2-1 victory against Norway but looked like he was struggling in the stifling heat of the Miami Stadium before being substituted after the break for Arsenal team-mate Eberechi Eze.England went 1-0 down when Andreas Schjelderup scored for Norway before Jude Bellingham equalised just before half-time, and also grabbed the winner for the Three Lions during extra time.The win set up a semi-final against Argentina, who beat Switzerland, that will kick off at 20:00…
“It’s crazy when they talk shit to me God punish them.” FightHype interpreted the post as Crawford reacting to McGregor’s defeat, and many fans reached the same conclusion given the timing. The two have exchanged words in recent weeks after McGregor claimed Crawford turned down a $200 million two-fight boxing and MMA deal. Crawford rejected that version of events, saying no such offer was ever presented to him. Crawford did not mention McGregor by name or elaborate on his message, but the post quickly spread across social media. The reaction was divided. Some boxing fans viewed the message as Crawford…
Was this the moment the footballing rivalry between the two sides really developed? Possibly. Probably.The two teams met in the quarter-finals in a match Argentina, to this day, insist they were robbed in, claiming Geoff Hurst’s winning goal was offside.That was just the tip of the iceberg when it came to controversy though, with Argentina captain Antonio Rattin sent off after just 33 minutes for two offences in the space of three minutes.The first was for a trip on Bobby Charlton, the second was for continuing to argue with German referee Rudolf Kreitlein.The match was delayed for almost eight minutes…
Ross Kemp amuses fans with his passionate video updates once again, this time as England beat Norway in the World Cup quarter final. Norway went ahead when Andreas Schjelderup’s lucky cross went in off the post on 36 minutes. England got one back just before half time (45+2 mins) when Bellingham met Anthony Gordon’s cross, with a tap in. Norway’s Torbjorn Heggem then had a goal disallowed earlier in the second half, Elliot Anderson was shoved by Erling Haaland. Didn’t take the referee long to rule that one out after looking at the monitor. In the 76th minute, Kristoffer Ajer’s…
Moses Itauma is being touted for a long reign atop the heavyweight division, but former WBO cruiserweight world champion, Johnny Nelson, believes that there is one divisional rival that the youngster should avoid facing. Itauma has stopped 12 of his 14 opponents to date, and is yet to fight beyond the sixth round during his professional career. However, the Kent-based youngster is on the verge of a shot at the heavyweight throne, with an August clash with Filip Hrgovic seemingly the only obstacle to his world title bid. The 21-year-old is currently the WBO mandatory challenger and has also been…

Morning everyone. A quick Sunday round-up for you, and England’s Arsenal contingent continue at the World Cup after a 2-1 win over Norway last night. Declan Rice started despite reports of illness, and I think it’s fair to say you could tell he wasn’t 100%. He looked ok in possession, but when he can’t take a good corner (perhaps for fear of a Gary Lineker style follow through), you know he’s not right. He lasted 45 minutes before being replaced at the break. At that point it was 1-1. Norway went ahead through Andreas Schjelderup’s cross-shot which clattered in off…
