NFL roundup: Rams escape against Eagles, Chiefs win thriller but Thornton suffers gruesome injury

Rams score two touchdowns in final four minutesKansas City Chiefs edge Las Vegas to stay unbeatenLamar Jackson leaves stadium in protective bootDrake Maye finds form in Pats win over BillsKyren Williams ran for two touchdowns in the final four minutes as Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams rallied from a 10-point deficit to beat the Philadelphia Eagles. The Rams had struggled offensively all afternoon and a win seemed out of reach until late in the fourth quarter, when Eagles coach Nick Sirianni decided against kicking a chip-shot field goal that would have made it a three-score game and instead went for it on fourth down. The Eagles failed to convert, giving the Rams new life. Stafford led touchdown drives of 98 and 79 yards, with Williams scoring the go-ahead touchdown from seven yards out. Both teams are 2-2 on the season. Continue reading...

Let’s stop doubting Thomas Tuchel: England are impressive and Euro 2028 is the target

Coming third in the World Cup was really not a disaster, and Saturday’s rout of Croatia and building the team around Jude Bellingham are good signsMove fast and fix things.

Denmark sink Wales as Rasmus Højlund makes Danny Ward pay for blunder

Wales crave momentum but, a few days after surely the sweetest high of Craig Bellamy’s two-year reign, a sapping international window ended on a bum note. At least until Bellamy was informed Portugal’s comeback victory over Norway means Wales will spend the next six weeks in third, and not bottom of Nations League A4 owing to their superior head-to-record. “That’s actually quite nice,” the Wales head coach said, slowly digesting the silver lining about half an hour after the final whistle. “That’s brightened up a real rubbish moment.”Bellamy suggested last Thursday’s victory over Norway blew the group wide open with a hand grenade but Danny Ward detonated one to give Denmark a second-half penalty and Rasmus Højlund’s flawless spot-kick ultimately proved the difference. The galling thing for Ward was that until his moment of madness, he had kept his country in the game, his best stop a sublime right-hand save to deny Gustav Isaksen. A first clean sheet since beating Liechtenstein last November also went out of the window for Wales. The life of a goalkeeper, eh? Continue reading...
