So far, that has just not happened.The 19-year-old has scored one goal and has not made an assist, but his country have cruised into the final anyway and…
Morning all. Let’s start at the World Cup where England finished third after a madcap 6-4 win over France last night. Declan Rice started, because it’s now a test of endurance to see how many games he can play without actually collapsing in an exhausted heap, and actually opened the scoring with a nice goal in the third minute. He then provided an assist for Ezri Konsa to make it 2-0. Bukayo Saka also started this game, and made it 3-0 after France’s entire team decided to go walkabout leaving him and Marcus Rashford all the space they needed to…

The team recognised that the issue was that Russell was less comfortable with the car in the medium and high-speed corners of the middle sector. That meant he was making corrections to the steering that Antonelli did not have to do. These cost speed, which needed to be filled in with battery power. As electrical energy is limited, that left Russell down on deployment in the final third of the lap.But after hard work over the weekend Russell made significant inroads into that issue, and Mercedes admitted they were still seeing a straight-line discrepancy that they could not yet explain.Russell,…
