Hardie leaves with two Olympic silvers, two World Championships and a couple of European crowns, as well as a record 12 Grand Slam titles. And with memories and bonds to last a lifetime.Several emotional chats with team-mates Mouat, Bobby Lammie and cousin Hammy McMillan have presaged this announcement, with the latter warning he has already been doing the rounds of their family to claim their support in the new era.McMillan’s uncle – Hardie’s dad – was his first port of call. The claim is delivered in jest – with Lammie insisting it’s never too soon for the jibes – and…

Bellingham missed just 29 minutes of England’s Euro 2024 campaign, starting all seven matches, but his fortunes have changed under Gareth Southgate’s replacement.The 22-year-old missed two qualifying matches last September because of a shoulder injury but was overlooked for October’s international camp, including a qualifier against Latvia.He returned to the squad in November but was forced to miss friendlies in March with a persistent hamstring issue.His relationship with Tuchel has frequently come under scrutiny, with the manager describing Bellingham’s on-field behaviour during last June’s defeat by Senegal as “repulsive” – a remark Tuchel later apologised for. In November, Tuchel said…

“He doesn’t like talking about his story,” John McGinn told the Scottish FA. “He’ll no like hearing it – but that’ll never happen again. Part-time football to go so quickly to Hull, Liverpool, Champions League winner, Premier League winner, captaining your country at a World Cup. That’s fairytale stuff.”It’s a documentary I can’t wait to sit back and watch, the Andy Robertson documentary.”His manager at Hull, Steve Bruce, cited Robertson’s ability to grow and meet bigger challenges as they came along. Strachan said his intelligence meant he learned extremely quickly.Robertson mainly ascribes his ascent to “luck” in having coaches and…

“Give him a couple more fights at cruiser[weight]. I don’t know how much more Usyk’s gonna fight, but give me two more fights, two or three more fights, and then go to heavyweight, and Benavidez beats Usyk,” said Garcia to ESNEWS about Benavidez. The comments came as speculation continues over Benavidez’s long-term future. While the unbeaten star has not ruled out a move to heavyweight, he has indicated that any jump would likely come further down the road, with his immediate plans centered on either cruiserweight or a return to light heavyweight. Usyk, meanwhile, remains the unified heavyweight champion following…

After sharing twelve rounds with Devin Haney, Regis Prograis has weighed in on how his former rival may fare against Shakur Stevenson. With both Stevenson and Haney recently linked to a move to Zuffa Boxing, plus an ongoing back-and-forth, a fight between the two American pound-for-pound operators seems to be edging closer, even despite the weight difference between them. Stevenson has only fought once at super-lightweight – a standout win against Teofimo Lopez – and could likely make lightweight again. Haney, on the other hand, is now at welterweight, and his days of making anything beneath the 147 limit may…

He pulled Messi off the right wing and placed him at the tip of the forward formation – but without the job of a traditional striker. Samuel Eto’o went right, Thierry Henry went left, and Messi was told: drop, receive, decide. By full-time it was 6-2. The false nine was reborn.It was nothing new. Gusztav Sebes’ Hungary had dismantled England in their own backyard back in 1953, when in their 6–3 win over England he repeatedly dropped Nandor Hidegkuti into midfield, pulling centre‑backs…

“Davis Vs Haney, the biggest fight of the year.⭐️” Haney responded shortly afterward, but instead of embracing the matchup, he shifted the focus toward Stevenson. “Me vs. Shakur.. is the biggest. Our fight would be big tho.” The exchange is notable because it comes just days after Bill Haney publicly suggested that Shakur would be the preferred opponent before any potential fight with Keyshawn. While Haney did not dismiss Davis outright, his response made clear which matchup he views as the bigger attraction. A Haney-Shakur fight has been discussed for years. The two unbeaten stars have a long history dating…
