“It did appear potential, we have seen with lots of our video games that it is not over till it is over. We by no means acquired snug and there was at all times that factor of scoreboard strain.”

South Africa reached the ultimate with an unbeaten report all through their marketing campaign, profitable over affiliate groups Nepal and USA, in addition to Sri Lanka, Netherlands, Bangladesh, England, West Indies and Afghanistan.

Beforehand, South Africa had misplaced seven World Cup semi-finals throughout 20-over and 50-over cricket and overcame what appeared like an not possible hurdle in reaching the ultimate.

“We acquired into place which proves that we’re worthy finalists,” Markram added.

“It is gut-wrenching… the best way this sport went solely provides to the feelings.

“Hopefully transferring ahead we will draw rather a lot from this stuff nevertheless it’s nonetheless a proud second for us.”

South Africa definitely didn’t go down with out a combat.

Their bowlers uncovered a nervy India facet, decreasing them to 34-3 throughout the powerplay after skipper Rohit Sharma received the toss and elected to bat.

“They principally took the sport to the brink of profitable it and acquired so shut, you have to follow the method for so long as potential and the method will take you to the place you wish to be. It is extremely disappointing for them.”

With India’s T20 greats Kohli and Rohit bowing out after this marketing campaign, in addition to head coach Rahul Dravid, it felt like the celebs had aligned for them to depart topped as champions.

No, it could’t be. However, sure, it’s, and belief me: It’s great.

I went by means of some model of the 5 phases of grief once I first heard “resort, motel, Vacation Inn” in an in any other case emotional, susceptible track. First, I assumed my ears had been deceiving me. I laughed out loud. I attempted to seek out which means in it: Possibly Cabello actually needs this ex to neglect about whoever he’s with proper now and meet her on the resort room. I assumed it was silly. However by the point the track was over, I cherished it. It’s additionally C,XOXO in a nutshell: an undeniably foolish second coexisting with uncooked emotion, with the thread of Miami tying it collectively.

Actually, beneath the neon haze, C,XOXO is fairly intimate throughout — Cabello displays on how the city made her a musician, falls out and in of affection just a few instances, and wonders what she tousled alongside the best way. On “B.O.A.T.,” unhappy woman and occasion woman unite. Simply deal with it like every other time you hear “Resort Room Service” on an evening out and provides in.

The ahead ought to have scored a second quickly after when he clipped a shot over Schmeichel solely to see it go broad, however Germany had their decisive second with simply over 20 minutes remaining.

This time it was younger star Musiala who bought the purpose as he raced via on the left and slotted into the far nook.

From then on the house followers had been on their ft, roaring their aspect on for extra objectives, hoping they might actually lay down a marker to counsel they may go all the way in which.

No extra had been forthcoming, however the Germany followers cheered their aspect passionately on the last whistle in celebration of this convincing win.

First, the centre-back thought he had scored the primary objective for his nation when he swivelled and located the underside nook however Thomas Delaney was deemed to have been fractionally offside within the build-up.

As Germany celebrated their reprieve, VAR Stuart Attwell noticed a handball from Andersen moments later in blocking David Raum’s cross. It appeared harsh given the proximity of Andersen to the cross, however Havertz stayed composed to beat Kasper Schmeichel from 12 yards.

There was nothing controversial about Germany’s second, nevertheless, which killed the competition as Schlotterbeck picked out the run of Musiala, who breezed away from Andersen to fireplace throughout Schmeichel and arrange a quarter-final in opposition to both Spain or Georgia.

Why was Denmark’s objective dominated out?

There have been three selections which needed to be made within the incident which noticed Andersen assume he had given Denmark the lead.

Firstly, the English match officers checked out whether or not there was an preliminary offside from Christian Eriksen’s free-kick. That was dominated out.

In the course of the second part, it was checked whether or not there was a penalty offence on Thomas Delaney by Havertz, which was deemed to not be enough sufficient to be overturned.

Subsequently, Delaney was standing in an offside place – by a toe – when he attacked the ball when it got here off Rasmus Hojlund’s shoulder. Semi-automated VAR replays confirmed simply how tight the offside name was.

Ought to Andersen have been penalised for handball?

The Andersen handball incident fell throughout the present interpretation and software of the IFAB guidelines. Andersen’s physique is exterior the silhouette, making a barrier stopping the ball from being crossed.

Andersen’s arm is outstretched, subsequently it was really useful for it to be a penalty offence.

The Palace defender stated afterwards: “It was the referee who determined the sport for us. It is the smallest offside I’ve ever seen in my profession, to be trustworthy. However after all, offside is offside.

“After which to offer a penalty on this state of affairs is for me is a loopy determination. Now, I have been enjoying within the Premier League for 4 years and the final two years, the referees earlier than each season they arrive and clarify all the principles.

“And this…they spoke about many occasions: the handball rule. And that is by no means a penalty. That is half a metre beside me and kicks the ball on my hand. What would you like me to do? That…they stated that it will be black or white. That can by no means be a penalty. And now an English ref provides this as a penalty. So, for me it is a loopy determination.”

Roy Keane talking on ITV:

“I am at all times important of defenders who put their fingers behind their again, as their stability cannot be proper. However you are feeling for defenders now. I am unable to see that as a penalty.

“Does each defender now should put their fingers behind their again? You’re feeling for Denmark. The spirit of the sport – it is so unfair for that handball to go in opposition to them.”

UEFA assertion on Andersen handball

“In the course of the match between Germany and Denmark, related ball know-how housed inside adidas’s Fussballliebe ball confirmed that Denmark defender Joachim Andersen touched the ball together with his hand contained in the penalty space.

Hjulmand: Recreation determined by two VAR selections

Denmark head coach Kasper Hjulmand: “The sport was determined by two VAR selections. I’ve the photograph right here, it was one centimetre (offside). When it comes to statistics and knowledge, it does not make sense. This isn’t the way in which we’re imagined to be utilizing VAR.

“It is one centimetre. And after two minutes there was a penalty. I’m so uninterested in the ridiculous handball rule. We can’t demand our defenders to be working with the arms like this (behind their backs). It isn’t pure. Joachim (Andersen) was working usually. It is a regular state of affairs.

“He jumped up and was hit from one metre. I not often speak about these selections, nevertheless it was actually decisive for this recreation.”

Star participant – Kai Havertz

From the chic to the ridiculous. This was a trademark efficiency from the Arsenal ahead, the kind that makes him so entertaining. He must have scored from six yards out within the first half when he headed Raum’s supply straight at Schmeichel.

Within the second, an excellent piece of ability evaded Jannik Vestergaard just for the end to once more be missing. However Havertz will get by means of a lot work and his efforts have been rewarded from the spot.

Biden appeared to brush off considerations over his debate efficiency the place he stumbled a number of occasions and had a hoarse voice, to which he pointed to having a sore throat.

“The chatter could be very distracting, and it’s going to be very consuming for the marketing campaign,” former Biden press secretary Jen Psaki mentioned on MSNBC. “Ought to he get replaced? They’re going to be answering that query as an alternative of breaking by way of on attacking Trump.”

On Friday the Related Press named Shapiro as a Democrat who has endorsed Biden however might have their very own presidential aspirations. Others in that dialog included California Gov. Gavin Newsom, Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, Illinois Gov. J. B. Pritzker and California Rep. Ro Khanna.

Colin Dunlap of KDKA Pittsburgh radio posted to X “Josh Shapiro is completely the strongest Democrat on this nation. There is no such thing as a query…. He must be the man.” One other account on X mentioned If the Dems had been to switch Biden, I believe the politician the GOP ought to concern probably the most could be PA governor Josh Shapiro. He’s younger (for a politician), articulate, extremely smart and really personable.”

Google Developments information reveals following the talk, nationwide searches for him spiked.

A 2023 Muhlenberg Faculty’s Institute of Public Opinion ballot discovered Shapiro beating Trump 48% to 37% with 11% leaning towards one other candidate and 4% uncertain. As well as, an Engagious/Sago focus group research launched by Axios final 12 months discovered Pennsylvania swing voters needed to see Shapiro run for president over Biden.

Shapiro was requested shortly after profitable the governor’s race in November whether or not he had any ambition to be the nation’s first Jewish president, to which he had “ambition to get slightly little bit of sleep” and to serve the folks of Pennsylvania.

Shapiro additionally appeared irked at a query whereas showing with Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg in Dauphin County over their political futures, shaking his head when the query was requested to Buttigieg.

However that also hasn’t silenced the requires Shapiro to make a run for the White Home, whether or not or not it’s this 12 months or in 2028. Former Pennsylvania Lieutenant and Appearing Governor Mark Singel known as Shapiro “the actual deal” and somebody who’s “going to be a star.”

If archaeologists ever excavate the leyline reputed to circulation beneath the Pyramid Stage subject, it is going to possible appear to be this. A shimmering ocean of 200,000 luminous neon specks, undulating throughout the vale to the sound of twinkling synth rock.

Tonight’s spectacular preview comes courtesy of the huge array of LED wristbands handed out throughout the positioning and waved aloft for 2024’s reluctant record-breakers. As a lot as Chris Martin copiously thanks “the best metropolis on earth” for the prospect to play, Glastonbury is fortunate to have him.

Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres tour hits Glastonbury virtually three years in, having been by means of the UK twice already. The band reportedly needed to be talked right into a record-breaking fifth Glasto headline present that may moderately be thought-about overkill. The Elton-rivalling crowd who make the completely wonderful “Viva La Vida” probably the most unifying and celebratory moments ever to emanate from this hallowed stage, although, are very a lot up for being overkilled.

The tour was one thing of a free Eras of their very own – an hour dominated by early classics, then an hour of their newer hyper-pop tendencies. Glastonbury will get extra of an impressive mash-up. A Nineteen Seventies BBC clock counts all the way down to a brazen opening “Yellow”, then the band ricochet between albums, Martin bouncing and skipping across the stage like one of many native druids has summoned a sprite-like embodiment of pure melodic pleasure.

A pulsing “Paradise” provides option to an early outing for “The Scientist”, performed by Martin on a battered “Hey Jude” piano lined in stars and scribbles, but in addition 1 / 4 of one million heartstrings. “Clocks” – pounding, backlit in inexperienced – cues up the electro-pop rush of “Hymn For The Weekend” and effervescent folks rocker “Charlie Brown”. An hour or so races by, as for-the-ages Glasto headline units are likely to do.

Coldplay solely ever come near realising their undeserved popularity for the strange after they give up their anthemic powers to the sonic sinkhole of EDM pop. Now, there’s a lot dialogue overseas this yr about Glastonbury’s on-going relationship with pop music. Our personal Adam White convincingly argues elsewhere that, past the headliners, a style with such mass enchantment right here (witness Sugababageddon and the XCXocalypse) deserves prime-time respect quite than being shunted to dangerously overcrowded sidelines.

However let’s not neglect that exterior countercultural behemoths like Glastonbury, pop music has all the time been overwhelmingly in style and ceaselessly will probably be – the clue’s within the identify. And good factors have additionally been made about Coldplay’s profession trajectory mirroring the pageant’s. Each vibrant leftfield extravaganzas acquired so large they needed to embrace the mainstream machine so as to preserve their unwieldy success as streaming submerged rock.

With Coldplay adamant that they’ll cease making music in 2025 (a superb 10 years after they started flagging up the tip of the street) then, it maybe bodes unwell for Glastonbury’s future course: when you’ve gone full pop, the implication goes, you’ve reached the tip of the artistic line. There’s nowhere to go however small once more.

What could be relied upon although, irrespective of their style preferences, is that each will ship the spectacle of a lifetime. Even when indulging Pharrell-friendly grooves on “Adventures of a Lifetime” or a Ok-pop collaboration with BTS on “My Universe”, they blow extra finances on balloons, confetti and fireworks than Moscow is at the moment spending on filling your timeline with Reform UK content material.

For “One thing Simply Like This”, their sci-fi rave collaboration with The Chainsmokerz, they don cartoonish alien heads. Martin stops “A Sky Filled with Stars” simply earlier than its Balearic blast off for a “band assembly”, asks everybody to place their telephones away and “contemplate your self a part of the efficiency for this one track”, then drenches the Pyramid in aurora borealis.

Additionally they signpost some methods again. Mid-set Little Simz emerges so as to add grainy verses to a premiere of rap pop new monitor “We Pray” – presumably set to seem on forthcoming tenth album Moon Music – marking a far darker course than the glossier fare of late. “Arabesque” comes accompanied by a video visitor spot from Femi Kuti and a swampy horn part of no little voodoo, whereas a white-clad gospel choir seem on the stage’s rim for a soul chorale of “Violet Hill” led by Laura Mvula. A soul noir coda to Coldplay’s profession awaits? Color us intrigued.

Each band and pageant additionally know the worth of “occasion” moments. Following a stripped-down run by means of the debut album’s jazzy ballad “Sparks”, Martin grabs an acoustic guitar and begins inventing songs on the spot, describing members of the group that pop up on the display screen: a person with a mannequin Pyramid Stage on his head; Michael Eavis, “the world’s biggest farmer”; shock visitor guitarist Michael J Fox.

Then the stage fills with gamers for a jubilant “Humankind”, a none-more bombastic “Repair You” and one other new track to shut the night, “FeelslikeImfallinginlove”. Each competes for showstopper of the pageant.

“You make my world gentle up,” Martin sang earlier; one hell of a note-to-self.

It is, as Chris Martin factors out, 25 years since Coldplay’s Glastonbury debut, a silver anniversary they commemorate tonight by unexpectedly dusting down an acoustic model of Sparks from their debut album Parachutes. Maybe extra pertinently, it’s the fifth time they’ve headlined the pageant, they usually’ve obtained the dangle of it to such an extent that it more and more feels just like the job the quartet had been placed on earth to do.

Since their final look in 2016, they’ve accomplished a 180 diploma flip from earnest stadium balladeers to purveyors of relentless, balls-out, more-is-more visible overload: their gigs at the moment are successfully a Twenty first-century equal of U2’s Zoo TV exhibits, albeit with none of U2’s accompanying theorising concerning the media or the connection between artwork and commerce.

This gig is performed amid the eye-popping, ongoing Music of the Spheres tour, and all the pieces that gave the impression to be cranked as much as 11 once I noticed it two years in the past is now cranked as much as 12. The top outcome makes Dua Lipa’s efficiency on Friday night time appear like the dernier cri in shy understatement.

Pyrotechnics and confetti cannons are used not as a particular impact, however as a daily punctuation level, not deployed to signpost the climax of the present, however the arrival of choruses. Inflatables roll over the gang, whereas equipping the viewers with illuminated wristbands stays the very best thought anybody’s had at a giant-scale gig since they labored out tips on how to flip the massive stage-side screens on: it’s each visually dazzling and dizzily efficient at turning even the fringes of what seems like will probably be the largest crowd of the weekend into a part of the efficiency.

It’s shamelessly unsubtle crowd-pleasing stuff, from the plain singalong anthems that precede their look – Don’t Look Again In Anger, Smells Like Teen Spirit – to a drone flying overhead broadcasting the vastness of the assembled plenty again to them, to the extent of flattery Chris Martin lavishes on the pageant and the viewers itself: “Superb great folks from in every single place… the best metropolis on earth … an important engine room on this planet”.

Nonetheless, in the midst of the gang, it could take a fairly extraordinary stage of churlishness to not be swept alongside in its wake. No matter cheap objections you may lodge in opposition to Coldplay do appear to soften away within the face of such cartoonish good enjoyable – at a pageant the place there’s theoretically all the time one thing else happening to divert your consideration, it’s a sensible thought to repeatedly give the viewers one thing to have a look at – and a set toploaded with a relentless bombardment of biggest hits: Yellow, Clocks, Journey of a Lifetime, The Scientist, Paradise, Viva La Vida, Increased Energy.

Certainly, it’s so relentless that the center part, throughout which they begin rolling out the particular company seems like a respite, just because the songs they’re guesting on are album tracks: Laura Mvula sings Violet Hill from Viva la Vida – intriguingly the solitary genuinely indignant anti-war protest music in Coldplay’s catalogue – Little Simz raps on And So We Pray, from the forthcoming Moon Music, and Femi Kuti and Palestinian/Chilean singer Elyanna seem on an impressively highly effective model of Arabesque, the spotlight of 2019’s decidedly combined bag On a regular basis Life.

The ultimate a part of the present often skirts with a barely tacky daffiness because it makes an attempt to seek out additional stops to tug out: Chris Martin will get the cameras to concentrate on particular person viewers members and makes up songs about them on the spot; he invitations the gang en masse to ship out personal messages of affection to the world (the dispatch of mentioned messages is marked with extra fireworks).

However he nonetheless succeeds in carrying the gang with it. For a finale, he unexpectedly brings out Michael J Fox, after which performs Repair You. The latter is arguably probably the most slender of Coldplay’s patented Huge Tunes, nevertheless it feels noticeably bulked up by being sung en masse, to a backdrop of their trademark wristbands glowing a heat orange. Onstage, the cameras briefly concentrate on drummer Will Champion, who, quite sweetly, appears to be moved to tears. However even when it doesn’t go away you moist-eyed, Coldplay’s efficiency is the form of Glastonbury set that nobody current is prone to neglect in a rush.

These allegations have led drivers to picket 25 Amazon warehouses in 9 states, in keeping with the congressional letter.

“Over the previous few years, studies of unsafe and unfair working circumstances have demonstrated that widespread security and labor violations seem like a function, not a bug, of the DSP program,” lawmakers wrote within the letter. “Clearly, additional Senate oversight of Amazon’s DSP program is overdue.”

Amazon disputed the allegations within the letter.

“DSPs are small enterprise homeowners and entrepreneurs who’re creating good jobs, with nice pay and advantages, for greater than 275,000 drivers world wide,” Lynch Vogel stated. “We strongly dispute the claims within the letter and sit up for sharing the info.”

Ryan Gerety, govt director of the Athena Coalition, one of many advocacy teams that signed Thursday’s letter, stated the teams sit up for seeing the outcomes of each inquiries however are significantly involved concerning the standing of the investigation into warehouse working circumstances as a result of it has been a 12 months because it started.

“In response to a groundswell of Amazon employees organizing for higher circumstances throughout the nation, a number of state and federal investigations are at present scrutinizing Amazon’s remedy of its employees,” Gerety stated. “Now, we’d like motion.”
