Greg Fisilau double edges Exeter to comeback victory at Saracens18:45 Saracens 24-30 Exeter Chiefs recover from 24-13 behind in bonus-point win Something had to give in this collision of two teams with, respectively, the best attacking and defensive records in this season’s Prem. And on a cold, clear afternoon in north London it was the league’s most resilient operators Exeter who ultimately prevailed in a see-sawing pre-Christmas contest in which the outcome remai… Wolves’ winless run continues as Keane Lewis-Potter doubles up for Brentford18:45 Being bottom at Christmas need not mean the drop. Three years ago, Wolves were in such a position, the difference being they kicked off on Boxing Day with 10 points rather than two. The current plight of Wolves is one of historic incompetence, the worst losing run in club history. Keane Lewis-Potter’s second-half double, Caoimhín Kelleher’s save of Jørgen Strand Larsen’s penalty adding insult to … Harry Brook’s moment of madness a fitting epitaph for England’s flawed cult of Baz | Barney Ronay18:13 The day was transformed in Australia’s favour by the batter’s failed swish, a perfect demonstration of talent being wasted and Test matches squandered Tough on Harry Brook, yes. But we must also be tough on the causes of Harry Brook. No child is born playing performative reverse-hoicks with a Test match to be saved, just as most acts of cult-like behaviour have their roots in a smooth-talking cul… Tottenham v Liverpool: Premier League – live18:13 ⚽ Updates from the 5.30pm Premier League kick-off ⚽ Scores | Table | Follow us on Bluesky | Mail Barry Liverpool: Curtis Jones has revealed Mo Salah apologised to the Liverpool squad for the fallout from his interview criticising the club and Arne Slot before hightailing it to Morocco for Afcon.

Sunday ma… Anthony Joshua calls out Tyson Fury after knockout victory over Jake Paul – video16:38 Anthony Joshua has said he wants to take on Tyson Fury next, after knocking Jake Paul out in the sixth round of their fight in Miami on Friday night. Joshua dropped Paul four times in the one-sided affair, and then called out Fury – even impersonating his fellow British heavyweight as he urged him to 'sign the contract'. On YouTuber turned boxer Paul, who went to hospital with a broken jaw, Joshu… Championship roundup: Lampard sparks confrontation as Coventry draw with Southampton16:38 10-man leaders shrug off illness crisis to earn point Blackburn beat Millwall to ease relegation worries Coventry shrugged off an illness crisis and a half with 10 men as the Championship leaders secured a 1-1 draw at Southampton . Frank Lampard – having been abused throughout the match by home supporters – gestured multiple times at the Southampton fans after the match to spark a melee on the pi… João Pedro rescues Chelsea draw as wasteful Newcastle squander two-goal lead16:06 Eddie Howe is synonymous with tidiness, efficiency, time management and control. Given that there is absolutely nothing slapdash, careless or wasteful about Newcastle’s manager his team’s increasing penchant for losing control is proving the most puzzling of paradoxes. Newcastle have developed a bad habit of throwing leads away this season and, 2-0 up thanks to a Nick Woltemade double, they were … Vonn’s Olympic comeback gathers pace with third in Val d’Isere downhill15:34 Vonn, 41, third in Val d’Isere downhill despite costly error American extends lead in World Cup downhill standings Comeback season sharpens expectations for 2026 Games Lindsey Vonn’s expectations have shifted so dramatically during her Olympic comeback that even a podium finish now comes with a sense of frustration. The 41-year-old American finished third in Saturday’s women’s World Cup downhill … Dom Taylor kicked out of PDC World Darts Championship after failing drugs test13:27 Adverse finding came from test before tournament Player suspended after reaching second round Britain’s Dom Taylor has been suspended from the World Darts Championship after failing a drug test, the Darts Regulation Authority (DRA) said on Friday, handing opponent Jonny Clayton a free pass to the third round.

Steel Ally was the 11-4 third-favourite in… Pat Cummins primed to pop the corks after bursting England’s fragile bubble | Geoff Lemon11:18 Australia’s captain marvel, the ultimate flat-wicket operator, stormed into this third Ashes Test like he had never been away On a redundancy scale, attending the Adelaide Test and noting that Pat Cummins was good is in the realm of noting that the Torrens was wet or the cathedral was spiky. Still, on day four, any one of those obvious things might justifiably have caught an observer’s eye. Perha… No love lost as Manchester United and Tottenham women square off again11:18 It’s not a derby but there is needle and passion as teams meet in League Cup quarter-finals a week after tasty 3-3 draw in WSL Manchester United against Tottenham can never be labelled a derby. The 200-plus miles between their home grounds will see to that. Watch their six-goal thriller in the Women’s Super League last weekend, though, and it had all the hallmarks of a classic derby: some needle,… If he never returns, Terence Crawford’s legacy as one of boxing’s greats is secure | Bryan Armen Graham11:18 The ring’s standout problem-solver steps away from ‘competition’ on his own terms and with an unblemished record across five divisions Terence “Bud” Crawford has always fought like a man who wanted to leave no room for argument. Not simply to win, but to win so cleanly that dissent collapses on contact. So his retirement announcement on Tuesday didn’t feel like a sudden fade-out so much as the cl… Myles Garrett is having a season for the ages. The Browns are wasting it11:18 The defensive end’s pursuit of the NFL sack record defies belief, raising questions about what his perpetually rebuilding team should do about it The NFL sack record is one of those hallowed figures in professional sports. Michael Strahan’s 22.5 lingered for two decades not because pass rushers failed to get better, but because everything has to break just right for someone to reach it. You need volume. You need game scripts. You need offenses chasing points. When TJ Watt finally tied it in 202… |
