After another action-packed day of knockout football, we take a deep dive into the best statistics from the day, using Opta numbers.
Romania 0-3 Netherlands: Malen, Gakpo and Simons star for Oranje
The Netherlands eased past Romania 3-0 to banish demons of previous years by progressing through a European Championship k…
If Phil Foden s Premier League debut arrives over the coming weeks, do not expect Manchester City s diminutive 17-year-old midfielder to be intimidated by the prospect of tangling with older men and bigger physical specimens.
Pep Guardiola has taken a shine to the Stockport teenager, who impressed on City s pre-season tour to the United States. Having selected him as an unused substitute in the Champions League against Celtic last season, Guardiola is seemingly ready to integrate Foden on a full-time basis from Saturday s opening weekend trip to Brighton and Hove Albion onwards.
The England Under-17 international s progress comes as no surprise to Steve Eyre, a former youth coach at City who fondly remembers watching a nine-year-old Foden excel when challenged to mix it …

Jamie Carragher has refused to blame Gareth Southgate for England s Euro 2024 final defeat, saying the Three Lions star players froze when it mattered most.
England were deservedly beaten 2-1 by Spain in Sunday s Berlin showpiece, with Mikel Oyarzabal scoring the winner after Cole Palmer cancelled out Nico Williams opener.
The Three Lions struggled for control throughout the game, enjoying just 34.9% of the possession as Spain accumulated 1.77 expected goals (xG) to their 0.55.
It was a familiar sinking feeling for Southgate, who was also criticised for England s failure to maintain control when leading against Croatia in the 2018 World Cup semi-finals and Italy in the Euro 2020 final.
England lost possession 98 times in total and completed only 66.5% of …
England were knocked out of the World Cup following a 2-1 extra-time defeat to Croatia in the semi-final on this day in 2018.
Gareth Southgate’s youthful squad had travelled to Russia without the weight of expectation on their shoulders, but ignited the nation with a remarkable run to the last four which sparked genuine hope of bringing an end to their wait for tangible success.
Not since Sir Alf Ramsey’s men had lifted the Jules Rimet Trophy at Wembley in 1966 had England got their hands on a major piece of silverware, and the near misses of Italy 90 and Euro 96 had simply increased the hunger.
Having emerged from Group G as runners-up to Belgium, England edged past Colombia on penalties in the last 16 and dispatched Sweden 2-0 in the quarter-finals to set u…
The Thursday Night Football game between the NFC West rival Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks has one of the biggest totals on the board for Week 5, giving us plenty of prop bet options to choose from.
The prop train got back on the right track in Week 4 as we went 10-5 SU for +4.45u, and we’re looking to keep cashing tickets with a trio of plays for this very prop-friendly game. We like Russ to continue to cook on TNF, are grabbing some plus-money TD shares, and are hoping Sean McVay gets a certain pouting receiver more involved in the offense.

The Kansas City Chiefs will be looking to utilize their nearly unstoppable passing game tonight when they take on the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LVII.
Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has a lot of weapons to choose from in the aerial attack. Yet while Kansas City has spread the ball around for much of the year, one man has been overlooked by Super Bowl odds: wide receiver Juju Smith-Schuster.

After a 69-point game indoors last week vs. the Browns, the Indianapolis Colts will again play hosts this weekend, this time to the rest-aided New Orleans Saints, who enter as a slight dog with a rising total according to NFL odds.
