Scotland 1-1 Switzerland

Scotland ace Kieran Tierney has sustained yet another injury during the Euro 2024 clash with Switzerland.

The full-back, who spent last season on loan at Real Sociedad has experienced a raft of setbacks throughout his five-year stint at the Emirates.

The 27-year-old looks devastated as he is stretchered out and replaced by Scott McKenna.

Luke Shaw ruled out

Luke Shaw won't play for England against Denmark on Thursday.

The Three Lions take on the Danes in their second Euro 2024 match at Deutsche Bank Park.

But manager Gareth Southgate confirmed Shaw won't participate due to injury.

That means Southgate will be without a left-back, and right-back Kieran Trippier might have to fill in again.

Saka stepping up for teammates

Bukayo Saka feels it is his responsibility to help England’s less experienced players – despite being just 22.

Arsenal star Saka told ITV Football: “No, I don’t feel like a veteran. I think I’ve got a lot to improve on and a long way to go.

“But I do feel like I have a lot more experience now and especially in the team, I have a bit more experience than some other players.

“So it’s my responsibility to help the players coming in.”

Foden and Trent out for O’Hara

Jamie O’Hara reckons Phil Foden and Trent Alexander-Arnold should be dropped against Denmark.

He told Grosvenor Sport: “For me, you’ve got to start AnthonyGordon at left wing over Phil Foden. He’s good enough for this level and I would drop Phil Foden for him–as mad as that sounds.

“Trent Alexander Arnold in the middle didn’t work, he’s not a midfielder.

“He cannot play there, it’s as simple as that. He is a right back,not a central midfielder and not even England’s best right back at that, so how is he playing in midfield? It’s a joke.”

Bee sting for Scots

Scotland's players have dodged a stinging attack at Euro 2024 ... after BEES invaded the stadium where they are set to play.

The honey-producing insects had built a nest inside an advertising board by the side of the pitch.

Officers from Stuttgart's fire brigade raced to the scene, wearing protective white suits, boots and masks.

They managed to remove the bees after an hour's patient and delicate work, placing them in transport boxes to ensure their human neighbours are beekeepers rather than goalkeepers.

Rooney warning for England stars

Wayne Rooney has warned England stars to beware being on live streams.

He said: “It's the stream that I've seen. [Jordan] Pickford and [Aaron] Ramsdale were on with some of these streamers last week.

"One wrong word while you're away with England in that camp. They need to be really careful.

"I did it a few weeks ago with a few lads, was just messing around and thought it was fun but if they're away with England and they start doing that and say the wrong thing at the wrong time."

Foden tipped for 10 role

Alan Shearer would rather see Phil Foden than Jude Bellingham in the No10 role.

He told Betfair: “Foden wants to have the freedom and I think England have given him that.

"Even after five minutes into the game he was on the right, he has got the freedom to move and go wherever he wants but when Bellingham is playing in a 10 role then it's difficult for him to go over there and go into a crowded space.

“When you're playing against a packed defence, like England were against Serbia then it's really important to keep your width, with Saka one side and Foden the other, almost getting the chalk on their boots from the touchlines.

“That's how you make it difficult for the opposition, but of course Foden doesn't want to do that, Saka doesn't mind but that's not Foden's game, he wants to roam and he wants to come inside.

"I'd feel better if he was in the 10 role and I don't think that would crowd it up, Bellingham would sit alongside Rice and he would then have the freedom to go forward if he wanted to do that.”

Neville demands Mainoo England start

Gary Neville hopes Kobbie Mainoo starts for England against Denmark.

He said: "Balance demands that, as the tournament progresses, Alexander-Arnold may be sacrificed in midfield and Kobbie Mainoo played instead.

“Every good team has a player who can receive a ball on the half turn, set the rhythm of the team and control a game.

"I love Bellingham, Rice and Alexander-Arnold. They are all amazing players.

"But I’m not convinced the current midfield three can provide that.”
