One of the most absurd stories in modern sport geta even weirder Donald Trump says it would be a "terrible mistake" if under pressure Fifa president Gianni Infantino was ousted from his position. Author | George B Trump wants Infantino to stay. [image or embed] — European Super Football ( @eurosuperfootball.bsky.social ) 11 August 2026 at 07:02 Trump's backing followed Uefa, Concacaf and the Asian Football Confederation issuing an open letter accusing Infantino of breaking trust "through deception" with his aborted Fifa Forward Enterprise (FFE) proposal. FFE would have meant a new company being created to manage commercial and ticketing rights of all Fifa competitions, including World Cups, with 21% sold off to a private investment company. Trump's comments are the first time he has come out in defence of Infantino since the FFE plans came to light on 28 July. Trump wrote on social media. "Fifa would be making a terrible mistake if, for any reason, ...

Another fantastic spidey film Spider-Man: Brand New Day takes Peter Parker to a darker place after No Way Home Author | Greg S Spider-Man: No Way Home ended on a bleak note, with Peter Parker (Tom Holland) asking Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) to erase him from everyone’s memory in an effort to protect the multiverse. The spell saves the day, but it also wipes Peter from the lives of those closest to him, including his girlfriend MJ (Zendaya) and best friend Ned (Jacob Batalon). Brand New Day picks up with an increasingly isolated Peter throwing himself into his work while secretly keeping tabs on MJ and Ned through social media as they spend four years at MIT. He lives rough in a New York tenement, patrols the city and takes painstaking care of his suit and web shooters with the help of a homemade “fabricator”, described as part sewing machine and part 3D printer. Peter’s only real friend is Detective Jean DeWolff (Liza Colón-Zayas), and even she is becoming concerned by how re...

A bit of rain didn't stop the party... Sunday brought the weekend to a stylish close, with a packed line-up across the site and an unforgettable finale. Author | Ajay When walking into Hillsborough Park on the Sunday morning, you could sense there was a memorable day to come.  People were still talking about the memorable Courteeners set from Saturday but were clearly also in the mood for fun and top quality live music.  The Lottery Winners brought their trademark joy and infectious energy to the stage. This included a memorable shootout to a Hot Dog van (you just had to be there...) The Lottery Winners entertain the crowd Hometown heroes Reverend and the Makers turned the park into one enormous singalong, with a huge surprise appearance from Sheffield legend Richard Hawley, who joined them on stage for an electrifying performance of Silence Is Talking.

Let's have a closer look at what happened on day 2 of Tramlines Festival... The Courteeners, Blossoms, Rick Astley and so much more... Author | Ajay Rick Astley drew one of the biggest crowds of the weekend at Tramlines and delivered a hugely entertaining set. Opening with “Together, Forever” in a dusty pink suit, he immediately turned the festival into a party before surprising fans by taking to the drums during a brilliant cover of RAYE’s “Where The Hell Is My Husband”. The highlight, inevitably, was “Never Going To Give You Up”, which prompted a huge Sheffield rickroll. Astley’s energy, warmth and obvious enjoyment of the performance made it a standout set and one well worth catching live. Stockport five-piece Blossoms arrived at Tramlines following a busy period that has included announcing their next album, “Songs From The Wedding Cake”, releasing “Jokes About Divorce” and appearing at several festivals. They opened their set with “Gary” to a huge reaction, with the stage bath...

Spain were deserved winners of a desperately disappointing World Cup final Ferran Torres' extra-time strike finally broke the resistance of 10-man Argentina. Author | James Y Stadium | New York New Jersey Stadium The European champions created the clearer chances against the defending world champions, who spent much of the contest disrupting Spain's rhythm and were reduced to 10 players when Enzo Fernandez was sent off moments before extra time. Torres proved the match winner in the 106th minute, collecting substitute Nico Williams' headed pass before firing powerfully past Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez from close range. A final that promised so much rarely delivered. It became an attritional contest, despite the wider spectacle surrounding the occasion. Watch | Highlights from the BBC US President Donald Trump arrived in New Jersey by helicopter before kick-off, while Shakira, Madonna and Justin Bieber headlined the first World Cup half-time show, extending the in...

England finish in 3rd place at the World Cup The match neither side truly wanted to play became one neither wanted to end. Author | George B Stadium | Miami Stadium England's bronze final, formerly known as the third-place play-off, against France erupted into an extraordinary contest that produced 10 goals, with the Three Lions scoring six. It could easily have delivered even more. Bukayo Saka became only the second England player to score a hat-trick in a World Cup knockout match, following Sir Geoff Hurst's feat in the 1966 final. The only other player to score a World Cup hat-trick against France was Pele in 1958. Records being broken everywhere... The victory secured England's highest finish at a men's World Cup since lifting the trophy in 1966 and their best result ever at a tournament held outside home soil. It also came in the highest-scoring third-place match in World Cup history, surpassing France's 6-3 win over West Germany in 1958. England also defea...

England were left heartbroken as their World Cup dream came to an agonising end Argentina scoring twice in the closing stages to complete a dramatic semi-final comeback in Atlanta. Author | George B Stadium | Atlanta Stadium Thomas Tuchel's side appeared destined for their first men's World Cup final since lifting the trophy in 1966 when Anthony Gordon put them ahead in a fiercely contested encounter after 55 minutes. But Argentina found another gear in the closing moments. Enzo Fernandez curled home a superb equaliser five minutes from time before Lautaro Martinez headed in Lionel Messi's cross deep into stoppage time to complete a remarkable turnaround. England's wait for major tournament success therefore continues. They will now face France in the third-place play-off, while Argentina will attempt to defend their World Cup title against Spain on Sunday. Watch | Key moments from BBC Sport The intense atmosphere inside and outside Atlanta Stadium was reflected by a co...
