England secured a 2-1 victory over Norway in the World Cup quarter-finals, with Jude Bellingham scoring two goals. The team will now face Argentina in the semi-finals, a match that revives historic footballing rivalries including the 1986 'Hand of God' and David Beckham's 1998 sending off. Coach Thomas Tuchel expressed dissatisfaction with the performance, while Bellingham defended his teammates. Fans celebrated across the country, with nearly 17 million watching on ITV.
A 28-year-old man from Rotherham was arrested on suspicion of the murder of former Tory minister and Reform politician Ann Widdecombe, who was found dead at her home in Devon. Police stated the attack is not believed to be politically motivated and they are not seeking anyone else. Two British hikers missing in deadly wildfires in southern Spain were found alive but badly injured, with 40% burns; at least 12 people have died in the fires, four of them thought to be British nationals. A separate wildfire in North Wales forced evacuations near Conwy Mountain. England's test cricket coach Brendon McCullum was sacked after a string of poor results, including a lost Ashes series and a home defeat to New Zealand; he will remain as white-ball coach.
