New Rangers hero does it yet again in UCL with opener vs Viktoria Plzeň 🙌
Djeidi Gassama has only been a Rangers player for a matter of weeks, but he is quickly turning into the club's main man, and certainly the man for the big winger had already grabbed a goal in both legs of the second qualifying round win over Panathinaikos, and made it three on the spin in Europe with a fine opener against Viktoria Plzeň at Ibrox. It was a lovely bit of link play with Cyriel Dessers that allowed the winger the chance to curl the ball home from inside the box to send the home fans wild. It's safe to say he has already paid off the transfer fee paid to Sheffield Wednesday for his services. 📸 Ian MacNicol - 2025 Getty Images

Liverpool to REPLACE Federico Chiesa with £30m winger
Liverpool have a replacement in mind for , even before the Italian departs. The forward line has already gone through some significant changes this summer and we're set for more if the rumoured moves come to fruition. Each of the absentees will need to be replaced. 🔴 Shop the LFC 2025/26 adidas home range 🚨2025/26 LFC x adidas range🚨 LFC x adidas Shop the away range TODAY LFC x adidas Shop the home range today! LFC x adidas Shop the goalkeeper range today LFC x adidas Shop the new adidas range today! We've already seen Hugo Ekitike join to help replace Darwin Nunez when he moves on and Diogo Jota's passing has sadly meant that another striker could join - Alexander Isak is highly favoured. Luis Diaz's move to Bayern Munich might result in Malick Fofana at Lyon being approached, although Cody Gakpo will be given an even bigger role in his absence and Rio Ngumoha's extraordinary performances throughout pre-season have given the Englishman hopes of some senior minutes. Since it's likely that Chiesa will leave, someone has already been identified as his replacement. Liverpool already have Chiesa's replacement Playing as Mohamed Salah's understudy was always going to be a difficult job. At times, you feel there might be an opportunity to play a substantial role in the team, but if you have a season where the Egyptian delivers 57 goal contributions, then you might feel shut-out on the sidelines. Slot didn't really know what to do with Chiesa last season and regular minutes are going to be essential if he has plans of making Italy's World Cup squad next summer. A move is understandable. Now that Salah has signed a new two-year deal with the club, you would expect him to have another main role in the team this season, which would be a spanner in the Italian's plans. But if you have a developing young player as his understudy at right-wing, then things start to make more sense. The 33-year-old Egyptian will need to be replaced eventually as he starts to slow down towards the end of his career, and having his successor develop alongside him would be a beneficial move. As such, it seems logical for Ben Doak to be promoted to the first team after a number of loan moves. He spent last season on loan with Middlesbrough in the Championship and he played a particularly extensive role, making featuring for 1787 minutes and delivering three goals and seven assists. In addition, he was heavily reported to have put most of the defenders he faced on skids, dribbling past them with relative ease, even despite him being marked by three opposition players at times. At Anfield on Monday afternoon, when the Reds played Athletic Bilbao in a pre-season friendly, he scored from a tight angle and delivered a pin-point ball into Ngumoha to assist the second goal.

When racing got real: The nail-biting early days of British touring cars
Race fans loved watching familiar motors duke it out The British Touring Car Championship is famed for its thrilling, close-fought action – a spectacle it has been providing for an impressive seven decades. Britain's first proper touring car race occurred in 1952. The British Racing Drivers' Club had previously held a catch-all 'production car race' at its annual International Trophy meeting at Silverstone, but this time it decided to run two separate races for sports cars and touring cars. Autocar's sports editor, John Cooper (not that one), explained: 'No better way of assessing the relative performance capabilities of cars of any sort can be imagined than the straightforward one of racing them one against the other. 'Certain modifications are permitted, partly in the interests of safety and partly to render the task of the car's tuning and preparation somewhat easier than would otherwise be the case, but in all the essential features these cars are the same as those which are described in the catalogues, and which we could buy if they were not in short supply and if we had enough money.' Such racing predictably proved popular with British car makers, and the public loved it too. Hence it became a regular feature at Britain's multi-race club obvious next step was to create a championship, and it was the secretary of the British Racing and Sports Car Club, Ken Gregory, who made it happen. His plan was to run the British Saloon Car Championship on the same ticket as sports car and junior single-seater races. The premise remained as our man had described in 1952, and to balance the varying performance levels, cars would be divided into four classes – meaning a 0.9-litre Austin A35 had the same chance of glory as a 4.0-litre Jensen 541, even though they would never dice with one another on track. Gregory was also a director at Brands Hatch, so the Kent circuit staged a trial run on Boxing Day 1957 – and, this being a success, the host to the first points-scoring BSCC round in early April 1958. Enjoy full access to the complete Autocar archive at the In cold and dry weather, the first saloon race proved 'quite the most interesting of the afternoon', we reported. 'It was won almost as a foregone conclusion by Jack Sears, adding yet another victory to his string of successes with the Austin A105. But in the sub-1200cc class, tremendous battles were going on. For 11 laps, the A35s of George 'Doc' Shepherd and John Sprinzel circled as a pair, inches apart, until finally Sprinzel managed to overtake. 'There was a second race for cars up to 1600cc and over 3500cc. The [Mk1] Jaguar 3.4s, driven by Tommy Sopwith [son of the famous plane designer] and Gawaine Baillie, again took first and second with impressive ease.' Sprinzel and Sopwith won out again at Brands later that month, while Tommy Bridger made himself unpopular, you might assume, by topping the 1200-1600cc class in a German Borgward Isabella, 'making the most of its fine cornering'. Sprinzel made it a hat-trick as the BSCC headed to Mallory Park in Leicestershire in May, while Baillie benefited from Sopwith's car shedding a tyre – and Harold Grace 'had a spectacular escape when he inverted his Riley 1.5 in a ditch'. There was another Sprinzel and Sopwith show at Brands later that month, and again in June, albeit with the Jaguar man 'having to work very hard' to steal the lead from his team-mate on the last lap. Next up was Crystal Palace in Croydon, where for the first time all of the saloon classes shared a circuit. It was Sopwith again, while Shepherd 'went surprisingly fast' to finish sixth in his baby Austin. Three more Brands races would take the series to its conclusion, the first coming on an overcast August bank holiday. 'Staple fare is the sight of a brace or more of 3.4s in the lead, cornering on the door handles. This was no exception.' And nor was the September meet. So you'd assume Sopwith had the title all wrapped up – but, in fact, Sears had been quietly racking up wins for Austin in the class below, and the two not only arrived at the October meet with equal points but ended it level too. The solution? A head-to-head in identical Riley 1.5s, swapping seats between two heats. The crowd were 'amply rewarded for waiting to the end' in torrential rain as Sears prevailed by 1.6sec on aggregate. Sopwith was perhaps vindicated in feeling aggrieved by the system – but, being British, he gave Sears a congratulatory handshake anyway. ]]>
