Proper Roy of the Rovers goal from McTominay, that!
Two goal comeback in injury time for Juventus against Dortmund, after a two goal comeback to beat Inter at the weekend. 8 goals scored total across the two games.

They're certainly not a great team right now. But they are a very entertaining one.

Domenico Tedesco has taken the helm at Fenerbahçe, replacing Jose Mourinho. But is he the man for the job? 👀

Also, which national team surprised us? And is Memphis Depay a legend? 🇳🇱

🦁 COME ON ENGLAND! Thomas Tuchel’s men won 5-0 against Serbia, who hadn’t lost at home for two years … until now!

🫣 Elsewhere, Ireland lost to Armenia, who are ranked 105th in the world.

Guardian live show in London this Thursday! Tickets still available! I'm coming all the way from Brighton so really you have no excuse not to be there.
Scott McTominay with the first goal of the new Serie A season.

Picking right back up where we left off!
Lucky to have the best family, spread as we are across two countries. Lucky to have seen both of them win tournaments! 🏆

This is the magic of tournament football as well though, I think. We (well some of us!) tell our lives by it. ⚽
31 years after watching Italy lose a final on penalties on a big screen in my dad's home town, went back there yesterday to see his sister, my aunt, buried in the same cemetery where he is. Then watched England win a final on penalties together with my brother in an Irish pub in Bologna.

🦁 They've done it again. England left it uncomfortably late to beat Italy 2-1 in their semi-final.

👀 The Lionesses will play either Spain or Germany in the final.

Always such a strange experience for me 🇮🇹 v 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿. I've never cheered harder for an England goal than Chloe Kelly's in 2022 but I've probably never been more heartbroken by one than her goal tonight. Go on the Lionesses in the final ma bravissime pure le Azzurre. Un'estate inaspettata di Notti Magiche
