A win against their bitter rivals would have guaranteed Gareth Southgate’s men a berth in the knockout stages of the competition. But the hosts turned in a lethargic attacking display as they managed just one shot on target in the match. Scotland, on the other hand, produced a resolute defensive display at Wembley and were unlucky not to come away with all three points. A point against England keeps their hopes of qualifying for the knockout stages alive....

England looked bright early on and came close from a Mason Mount corner in the 11th minute. John Stones found space in the Scotland box but was unable to guide his header on goal as the ball ricocheted off the inside of the post and was eventually cleared. Minutes later Raheem Sterling picked out a darting run from Mount, who was unable to guide the ball on target. Scotland soon raised their level and grew into the half....

Leading 10-6 ahead of the final day in northern France, Thomas Bjorn’s side had to withstand a predictable charge from their opponents, who won three of the first four matches to finish and halved the other to close within a point. However, from the moment Jon Rahm beat Tiger Woods 2 and 1 - leaving the 14-time major champion with a record of 0-4 this week - a home victory looked certain with several other European players holding commanding leads and Thorbjorn Olesen having recorded a shock 5 and 4 triumph over Jordan Spieth....

Bjerregaard, eyeing a second European Tour title, set the standard with a six-under 65 in gusty morning conditions at Verdura Golf Club to hit the front. Evans matched that target with the wind picking up in the afternoon, joining the Dane at the top of the leaderboard two shots clear of a group of five players by finishing with an eagle at the ninth. Bjerregaard bogeyed his first hole of the day after he also started on the back nine, but made gains at the 11th and the 16th to hit the turn in 34....

When asked for details regarding Project Nova, CCP CEO Hilmar Veigar Petursson clarified that the team is “heads-down working on this game.” CCP Games has previously stated that it received a lot of feedback from their 2016 debut and that the studio would be putting time into reworking it out of public eye at least for a while longer. But hopes for an Eve Vegas surprise were fufilled, as CCP’s willingness to acknowledge the game’s continued development is more than most companies would say....

Evergate takes inspiration from Ori and the Blind Forest, and that inspiration shows clearly in the gameplay.

RELATED: Everything Announced at Nintendo Indie World Showcase on 8/18 The key mechanic which sets Evergate apart from other games is Soulflame, which allows players to use crystals in the environment to boost Ki, create platforms, shields, and more....

The ESPN anchor totally shut down Arcade Fire frontman Win Butler after the self-absorbed singer tried to lecture us American rubes on the glories of the Canadian health care system. The fun started when Butler, lead singer for the Montreal-based band, won Celebrity MVP honors after scoring 14 points for Team Drake in Toronto. The singer immediately launched into his anti-American screed. MORE: Ranking every player in the All-Star Game | History of Canadian hoops...

Before even much of the United States was quarantined, most sports across the country were shut down. This obviously proved to be a difficult task for the worldwide leader in sports, as the lack of live sporting events would make it harder to get viewers to tune in. However, ESPN recently announced an upcoming Valorant Invitational that it will be airing, so it seems that the company is looking to esports to help with the lack of NBA, MLB, and NHL action that would normally be live right now....

Eternals debuted to both praise and criticism, making it one of the most divisive MCU films to date. Nonetheless, the ensemble cast of characters endeared themselves toward even critics, meaning many are hoping the Eternals will play a big part in Marvel Studios’ plans for the future.

In Eternals, Sersi is known for having the power of transmutation. She can touch anything and turn it into whatever she wants. At various points in the film, she transmutes the ground into an open field of ice, turns a falling bus into rose petals, and she even creates water as well as plant life on top of dried land.

But the group toppers Hungary got their second goal through Balazs Dzsudzsak, whose free-kick took a cruel deflection off Andre Gomes and left goalkeeper Rui Patricio helpless. Then it was Cristiano Ronaldo who scored his first goal of the tournament to make it 2-2 in the 50th minute. The game started to open up and Dzsudzsak struck again through a free-kick which was not cleared by the Portugal defence just five minutes after Ronaldo had struck....

The final whistle at the Stade Velodrome saw Russian fans break through the security cordon to assault English fans by kicking and punching them, the majority of whom were seeing fleeing for their own safety by vaulting over the barricades and fences. Flares were also lit and one flare was fired with the help of a gun at a section of fans in another stand. Even if England fans were guilty of violence before the game, incidents of violence outside the stadium do not fall under the purview of UEFA and hence only the Russian Football Union has seen disciplinary proceedings opened against them....

Given their illustrious history and winning mentality, you’ll always hear of them as being one of the favourites going into any international tournament. Their steely defence is always acknowledged but what’s not given enough credit is the sheer quality the Italians have consistently produced in midfield and attack. Think of Gianni Rivera and Andrea Pirlo, Christian Vieri and Alessandro Del Piero, Francesco Totti and Paolo Rossi and the list goes on and on....

With much of the pre-match focus on Eriksen and his recovery, a fired-up Denmark got off to a flying start in the Group B Euro 2020 match. Some poor passing in defense from Belgium led to Yussuf Poulsen stroking the ball into the bottom left corner from the edge of the box in the second minute. Play was paused in the 10th minute for a minute of applause in support of Eriksen and the emotion really seemed to fuel Denmark, who were exceptional throughout the first half....

Mourinho believes the two full-backs were not good enough offensively during the goalless draw with Scotland. England managed to top Group D with seven points from three games. They drew against Scotland at home but eked out wins in their clashes with the Czech Republic and Croatia. Mourinho, who is working as a pundit for talkSPORT, was highly critical of England’s performance against Scotland and singled out full-backs Shaw and James....

While Celtic dominated the domestic season in Scotland, Rangers can make its own mark on the campaign through European play. They can become the first Scottish club to ever claim the UEFA Europa League and the second Scottish club since Celtic’s 1967 European Cup triumph to claim a major European club trophy that still exists in some form today (Aberdeen won the 1983 Cup Winner’s Cup which was discontinued in 1999)....
