Man Utd latest

Manchester United attacker Cristiano Ronaldo and club captain Harry Maguire were dropped to the bench for last night's 2-1 Premier League victory over fierce rivals Liverpool.

 

The win was their first since new boss Erik ten Hag took over at Old Trafford.

 

He says he simply picked the team he thought had the best chance of securing three points.

 

 

The result sees United leapfrog Liverpool, who are yet to win this season.

Former Manchester United striker Louis Saha says they need to see more performances like last night if they're to win the fans over.

 

The squad's been heavily criticised after back-to-back defeats at the start of ten Hag's reign.

 

Saha tells Sky Sports News, they left everything out on the pitch last night.

Newcastle striker Callum Wilson is awaiting the results of a scan to find out how long he’ll be out with a hamstring injury.

 

He was among the goal scorers as they drew 3-all with champions Manchester City to remain unbeaten in the Premier League.

 

Boss Eddie Howe says the spirit in the dressing room at the moment is sky high.

Ukraine's football season starts today.

 

No games have been played in the country since Russia's invasion.

 

British Ukrainian journalist, Andrew Todos tells Sky Sports News, it's a show of defiance in the face of adversity.

 

 

No fans are allowed to watch and players will be rushed to bomb shelters if air raid sirens sound.

Russia’s deputy defence minister says military operations around two cities in Ukraine will be reduced.

 

Moscow claims the decision to scale back activity around Kyiv and Chrnihiv is to “increase mutual trust” in peace discussions – and create the conditions for an agreement.

 

Sky’s defence and security analyst Michael Clarke says Moscow’s aims in the capital, Kyiv, have been met with resistance.

Jada Pinkett-Smith has shared a public message for the first time since her husband slapped comedian Chris Rock at the Oscars.

 

She's posted a quote on her Instagram saying it's a "season for healing."

 

Will Smith has since apologised – saying his behaviour was "unacceptable and inexcusable".

 

But West Side Story actress Paloma Garcia-Lee was unimpressed – she was celebrating her co-star winning best supporting actress when it happened.

 

S019 S-ENGLAND SOUTHGATE

England manager Gareth Southgate has recalled AC Milan defender Fikayo Tomori to his squad, after almost two years away from the national team.

 

He’s included for the World Cup qualifiers against Andorra and Hungary, but Manchester United’s Mason Greenwood and Borussia Dortmund’s Jude Bellingham have missed out.

 

Southgate says he’s not selected the teenagers as he has a duty to protect them from playing too much football.
