Lions v Australia, first test: When is it, where to watch on TV and latest odds
The British and Irish Lions take on Australia for the first time since 2013, when the Lions claimed the series 2-1. Twelve years ago, the tourists narrowly won the first Test, 23-21, after Kurtley Beale's fateful missed penalty. Beale slipped during the run-up to a kick that, if successful, would have given the Wallabies a 1-0 lead in the series. 'It was a real disappointment in that game one, an embarrassing moment, but there are plenty of learnings. From that day onwards I've worn studs!' said Beale. 'It was a crucial moment in the series, wasn't it? I was just very thankful to have strong team-mates around me to pick me back up and get my focus into the next game.' When is the first Test? Saturday, July 19. What time does it start? 11am BST. What TV channel is it on? Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Action, which will rebrand to 'Sky Sports The Lions' for each Test weekend. Sky Customers can also watch on the Sky Sports app. Non-Sky Customers can stream the action with a NOW Day or a cancel-anytime Month pass. Talksport will cover the Lions for radio. It's coverage will feature former England and Australia head coach Eddie Jones, Ben Kay, Gordon D'Arcy, Alex Cuthbert, Jim Hamilton, Rocky Clark and Matt Giteau. BBC Radio Wales will provide Welsh commentary throughout the Tour.

England boss Tuchel interested in contract extension after 2026 World Cup
England manager Thomas Tuchel before the match REUTERS/Paul Childs/File Photo (Reuters) - Thomas Tuchel suggested he is tempted to seek a contract extension as England manager beyond the 2026 World Cup up to the 2028 European Championship, despite his team drawing criticism for recent poor performances. Tuchel, whose contract runs through the end of the World Cup, suffered his first defeat in four games as manager in a 3-1 loss to Senegal in a friendly on Tuesday, in which the Senegalese became the first African nation to beat England. "I will always be tempted to stay because I love the group and the opportunity, it's an honour to be England coach," Tuchel said in an interview with radio station Talksport on Wednesday. "I can tell you that even after the disappointment yesterday. "If you ask me today, yes. I am enjoying it, I feel the support, trust and respect of people in the FA. I wanted a new challenge and environment." The 51-year-old conceded to little enjoyment, however, in the hours after Tuesday's game at the City Ground where Senegal repeatedly punished England's lacklustre defence. "I'm not very good, I didn't sleep well after last night. I'm disappointed, it was a short night, we hate to lose," Tuchel said. "The way we lost, losing at home, didn't make me sleep well." The German said England lacked joy and energy, which was also evident in their 1-0 win over Andorra in World Cup qualifying on Saturday. "I am trying now and still we feel we are lacking the enthusiasm and joy consistently at international level," he said. "I think it's massively about connections that the team generates, that we have joy in playing together. "Senegal arrived with the objective to win and to make history. Would we have had the same joy as them if we won? I don't think so. "Celebrate the goals more, be more happy, create an environment where the players feel they can express their joy more lively. Or is it just not in us? Is it a way of lifestyle connected to different cultures?" Tuchel will travel to the United States next week to begin preparations for next summer's World Cup in the U.S., Mexico and Canada, looking at factors such as heat adaptation.
