England vs Germany, Premier League news and Europa League reaction – live football | American football
Key events
Also in the world of football this weekend, In a beautiful narrative twist, England women play Germany at Wembley tonight.
The friendly clash is the first meeting between both teams since the Euro 2022 final and comes JUST DAYS after the England men's team appointed German Thomas Tuchel as coach. Of course, the Lionesses have had a coach abroad for some time and she has done quite well.
Leah Williamson has been speaking sensibly, as always, about the situation.
Williamson said: “You can't choose when it suits us (to have a foreign coach), just based on the result. We've had some good times with Sarina, I think she's an honorary Brit now anyway. I know we have all been very happy with Sarina.”
Preamble
Good morning and happy (almost) weekend, football fans. Luckily, it's one of those more fun fall weeks that isn't considered an international break and has therefore been packed with juicy action. From the idiosyncratic touchline antics of Jose Mourinho peak last night in Istanbul, to a historic European victory for Welsh minnows TNSto all the consequences of the Champions League, which will quickly become a preparation for the domestic league as the press conferences accelerate today.
And it's a fantastic weekend in the first divisionto be fair. Arsenal host leaders Liverpool – (Will Bukayo Saka be fit? Probably not) – Erik ten Hag faces a somewhat difficult away trip to West Ham and Manchester City's team will take five points at the Etihad on Saturday es… check notes… Southampton .
me and John Brewin I will be here until the afternoon, at which time the right honorable Barry Glendenning will take charge to help you. Let's start with a classic Friday pre-read.
