Sport News 24/7 England are experiencing a severe selection dilemma at the moment and for once it is not owing to a lack of quality candidates to fill batting spots in their order. The early season form of Test wicketkeeper, Jonny Bairstow, in the 50-over format is giving Trevor Bayliss, the coach and, Eoin Morgan the captain, a serious problem. Bairstow has been in scintillating form, hitting 174 off 113 balls for Yorkshire against Durham recently, and smashing 72 not...
It’s rare that you gear up for a sporting event in the knowledge that the result doesn’t really matter since you were going to witness something truly historical. Either outcome and in whatever fashion would define one man’s legacy; his entire career. So it was for Anthony Joshua, the young gun on the precipice of greatness and Wladimir Klitschko, the old hand whose own legacy was already cemented. It was a coming together of two titans of the heavyweight boxing...

A couple having loud sex in Florida disrupted a tennis game at the Sarasota Open. Although moans are commonplace in tennis this was quite different, with grunts of a different sort overheard on the clay courts at the United Tennis Club. Francis Tiafoe and Mitchell Krueger were locked in battle, with Krueger up 15 love at the time. The Texan was trailing Tiafoe 3-6, 2-3 when the noisy love making was heard. Tiafoe was the first to recognise one particularly loud "oh yeah" and...
On Tuesday night, Borussia Dortmund were due to face Monaco in the Champions League quarter final first leg at the Westfalenstadion. As you know, the Dortmund bus was subjected to three bombing attempts which, miraculously, only left one passenger, their Spanish centre back, Marc Bartra, hospitalised with a broken wrist. The game was an eagerly anticipated one – two vibrant, attacking sides spearheaded by talented young forwards without either possessing watertight defensive lines, were set to put on a spectacle...
Sport News 24/7 This is the hilarious moment the world's most expensive footballer was left rolling in agony on the pitch - after a rogue ball hit him square between the legs. Paul Pogba, 24, was warming up with teammates before the Manchester United v Everton match last night (Tues) when a ball flew down the pitch. The Frenchman was caught unawares by the shot which struck him on the privates, causing him to bend in two and jolt dramatically...
Sport News 24/7 The modern game of football is, rather entertainingly so, marred with all of modernity's frenzied hype and the many million tweets, posts, likes and shares that come with it.
