Mack.

Lando Norris will have a 10-place grid penalty at the Belgian Grand Prix on Sunday as a result of exceeding the permitted number of engine parts. The world champion's car will be fitted with a new battery, Norris' fourth of the season, one more than is permitted. McLaren decided to fit the new unit, along with taking the latest specification of Mercedes engine, because the one Norris was using does not have the reliability fixes introduced after a series of failures this year.

So the third-place play-off match or as FIFA are calling it 'the bronze medal match' where the teams will get an actual bronze medal for winning this match. It is between France and England. It is a game that nobody wants to play. For France, they were denied an third World Cup final by losing to Spain 2-0. And for England, football didn't come home and just like that, streams as we'd probably see when Thursday's streaming figures are released, 'Three Lions' , 'Wonderwall', 'Vindaloo', 'World In Motion' and 'Come On Eileen? will drop down ' as Argentina scored two late goals to beat them 2-1 in an bad-tempered cagey match where the South American dark arts played an ugly part in the first half . The game is live on BBC One at Saturday at 10pm (UK Time) with commentary from Steve Wilson and Danny Murphy possibly, who'll probably mention his cat. How do you see this going?

Big up to Micah Richards for going on yesterday's match after finding out that his father had died shortly before the BBC went on air.

Yes it entered at #74 when England won the Women's Euros in 2022.

Yes you do get an actual bronze medal at the end of that game.

'Sign of The Times' might get an late boost from being used in the ending montage of England v Argentina

12% of possession England had from the time they went ahead to the end of the game.

Hopefully it should be an good final.

I don't think he should step down, Tuchel.

We had seven defenders on the pitch at one point.

At least that would be the last day, Three Lions, Wonderwall, Vindaloo, World In Motion and Come On Eileen?? Will be streamed.

And England are out of the World Cup.

Toney and Rashford on now. All or nothing now for England.

De Paul booked for Argentina.

England to do something in 'Fergie time'.

I might have won my bet.
