 Scotland suffer second-half collapse against Germany Scotland shipped six goals in a punishing 25-minute spell as Germany stormed back to inflict another bruising Nations League defeat on Michael McArdle’s side. Author - Jamie P After a composed and encouraging first-half performance in Wolfsburg, Caroline Weir gave Scotland a surprise lead five minutes before the break, calmly finishing to silence the home crowd.

Germany, ranked third in the world, emerged from the interval with renewed intent and immediately set about dismantling a fragile Scottish defence, just as they had in Dundee four days earlier in a 4-0 rout. Selina Cerci levelled with a straightforward header from a corner, the first of her hat-trick, before lashing home her second five minutes later. Scotland never recovered. Giovanna Hoffmann came off the bench to add two more, her second arriving almost instantly after the restart, and Laura Freigang’s audacious ...

Athletic Club had to settle for a point against a very defensive CA Osasuna. The goalless draw means Athletic are no closer to third-placed Atletico, but keeps them firmly in fourth place, six points clear of Villarreal CF, who they visit next Sunday. Author - Peter Grainger The Rojillos' three-centre-back system made life difficult for the Lions, who were also hampered by goalkeeper Aitor Fernandez who made several fine saves. Osasuna barely threatened, only having a couple of chances between their attacking players. They would have almost certainly taken a point before the match.  The rest of the attacking play was done by Ernesto Valverde's men. Nico Williams went close when he collected a long ball from Unai Núñez before Aitor Fernández turned his low drive behind for a corner. This was proving to be a frustrating afternoon.
