🚨 A quick word on Boro and Hull…
⬇️
Genuinely good luck to both in the final.
Boro have a brilliant team and thoroughly deserve to be there after our cheating; and Hull have shown the tenacity and character worthy of being promoted.
However, this situation means that Hull will have had to change their plans massively, whilst Boro have faced the psychological knock of losing at the last-minute to Southampton. A complete mess.
However, spare a thought to the thousands of #SaintsFC fans who paid for travel, accommodation and the tickets in the final. Not to mention the fact that the Saints fans are entirely innocent of this fiasco!
The majority of us are condemning the cheating and rightly calling for the ownership to take responsibility.
A disastrous end to what was appearing to be a brilliant climax.
What a mess.
One goal behind the play-offs after Wrexham's result today (and the late one they did concede). For all that we've chucked it away the last few weeks, this could be what gets us in there...

“Josh Tongue might have an unexpectedly big impact” - @ZaltzCricket in our pre-Ashes chat for @pasport
Steve Smith remains in form, Joe Root has his hundred Down Under and England have certainly delivered “cataclysmic collapses” - now Tongue gets his chance in Adelaide 👀
An Ashes series full of unpredictability, exciting cricket and “cataclysmic collapses” awaits, according to BBC statistician Andy Zaltzman

Caoimhin Kelleher has saved more senior penalties than he has let in after Saturday's stop from Cristiano Ronaldo.
Last six: Saved from Kylian Mbappe, Bruno Fernandes and CR7/ Beaten by Ryan Hardie, Enzo Le Fee and Eduard Spertsyan. Stupid game.

3 - Kevin Mac Allister has scored in three of his last four European appearances for Union Saint-Gilloise, but all of these have been away from home. He didn't score in his one home game in this run. Alone.
Erling Haaland and Phil Foden kept up their derby record yesterday.
My favourite stats from this - Haaland trails only Ryan Giggs in goals + assists in PL Manchester derbies (11 to 13). Giggs played in 29, across 16 seasons. Haaland's played 6...

No better embodiment of "Proper English" than the transformation of Sarina Wiegman from uber-serious, focused winning machine to drunk auntie at a wedding
Ronaldo has scored 938 goals for club and country in his career, needing 62 to reach the four-figure mark
He will continue that pursuit after signing a new deal at Al-Nassr
