The Guardian FootballMauricio Pochettino noncommittal on Christian Pulisic status for Australia game: ‘We’ll see’
Pulisic has been training individually all week US face Australia at 3pm ET in Seattle on Friday World Cup newsletter | Daily podcast | Download the app US men’s national team head coach Mauricio Pochettino offered very little clarity on the injury status of playmaker Christian Pulisic on Thursday, casting further doubt on his availability before the Americans’ second World Cup group-stage match against Australia on Friday. “I think as you know he was training individually all week,” Pochettino told reporters at his pre-match press conference. “Like always, I think tonight or the day before the game we have a meeting with our medical area, we will assess the whole group, and tomorrow we will communicate if we agree on something tonight. He is evolving, he is much better from Friday, we’ll see.” Continue reading...
The Guardian Football‘When Real come for you it’s very difficult to say no’: Cucurella explains Chelsea exit
Full-back moving back to Spain in £52m deal Player reveals he had telephone call with Mourinho Marc Cucurella has admitted that he had not expected to leave Chelsea and that his £52m signing for Real Madrid was done in a day and a half. The Spain left-back also defended himself against the backlash from Barcelona fans, insisting that although he was born and raised in Catalonia and joined the Barça academy aged 14, he could not turn down Real Madrid. “I am very happy,” the 27-year-old said – if maybe not as happy as his wife, Claudia, whose entire family are Madrid supporters. “It was all very fast,” Cucurella said from Spain’s training base in Chattanooga, Tennessee. “I got a phone call one morning. My people told me the two clubs had the terms mostly agreed and that I had to decide if I wanted to go there. I had no doubts. It is a big step for me, very important in my career. It all happened in roughly a day and a half. For me, that was the best thing, so it could be all done and I could keep my focus on the World Cup .” Continue reading...

The Guardian FootballEngland finally exorcise the Southgate era and unleash fun football | Barney Ronay
You don’t win World Cups by running riot for 10 minutes in mid-June but this felt like the start of something new Walking away from Dallas Stadium, feet throbbing in the heat of the late-evening Texas tarmac, it was tempting to picture the scene inside England’s dressing room three hours earlier, the score 2-2 at half-time against a perky Croatia , with Thomas Tuchel’s side in danger of slipping into a familiar tournament pattern of entropy and angst. What exorcism was performed here? Did England’s players burn a ceremonial John Lewis merino wool slim-fit quarter zip? Did Tuchel deliver his calm, tactically focused half-time speech while simultaneously sawing the head off the lifesize Gareth Southgate effigy the team still carries around with it, before inviting his players to whack it like a piñata, open letters tumbling from the waistcoat pockets, leadership mottoes and worries about penalties scattered across the floor as its bearded and frowning head steadily deflates, a moment of pure era-shedding catharsis?

BBC SportSwitzerland's Manzambi scores superb double against Bosnia
20-year-old Johan Manzambi scores twice as Switzerland beat Bosnia in their 2026 World Cup match in Los Angeles.
The Guardian FootballManzambi double inspires Switzerland rout of 10-man Bosnia and Herzegovina
The hype around Johan Manzambi will only heighten after his star turn from the substitutes’ bench helped Switzerland out of a hole and got their World Cup truly up and running. The 20-year-old managed to excel despite Freiburg’s comprehensive Europa League final defeat against Aston Villa last month and, with 73 minutes gone and 166 seconds after entering as part of a transformative triple substitution here, his superb volley put an end to a sterile contest, hooking a right-foot shot into the Bosnia and Herzegovina net. Until that point Switzerland had another eight fruitless shots to file with the 26 they mustered in their disappointing opening draw against Qatar , their sole goal a Breel Embolo penalty. Things kept unravelling in the final third. But Manzambi brought great poise and scored twice, his first when he lashed Amar Memic’s headed clearance past Nikola Vasilj and the second understated but sumptuous. It was also Manzambi’s feathery pass that released Embolo on goal, prompting the defender Tarik Muharemovic to lunge in and leave Bosnia and Herzegovina with 10 men, before Rubén Vargas and Granit Xhaka, with the final kick, completed the scoring.

The Guardian FootballTottenham complete £52m Van Hecke signing as De Zerbi focuses on defence
Spurs bolster backline with third summer signing Defender reunited with former Brighton head coach Tottenham have completed their third signing of the summer after Jan Paul van Hecke joined from Brighton.

De Zerbi worked with Van Hecke during two seasons at Brighton and earmarked the defender as a key component of rebuilding Tottenham. After two bids this month were rejected, a £52m offer was accepted and the 26-year-old has signed a long-term contract. Continue reading...
The Guardian FootballBroos hits out at stadium and ‘tall’ Czechia after South Africa rescue point
They can put the matches away, at least for a while. Before this game, Hugo Broos had responded to fierce criticism over South Africa’s start to the World Cup by revealing that eight months ago after qualification a friend had said they would erect a statue of him and the coach had replied by saying: “Make it out of wood; that way it will burn more easily.” Beaten 2-0 by Mexico , they were seven minutes away from following that with a 1-0 loss to Czechia, left with no points, no goals and not much hope. But from almost nowhere, in an arena that Broos criticised as “not a football stadium”, they got the penalty that allows them to fight another day. Pavel Sulc was the unfortunate man who gave it away, not given time to remove his hand from the path of another long shot. Teboho Mokoena was the man who scored it and what it means could be seen not only in how he celebrated then but in the tears that had rolled during the national anthem before. Continue reading...
