                    Seriously, with choices of Clinton, Trump and Sanders what did everyone expect to happen? It is like asking to chose between death by fire, drowning asphyxiation.

                      SAMARA, Russia — There was little here to please the aesthetes, nothing much to arouse the adrenaline junkies.

                      But after 90 straightforward, some might say dull, minutes of soccer on Saturday, England and its fans were awakened to this invigorating new reality: The team, young and until now unproven, is headed to its first World Cup semifinal since 1990.

                      All it took was two headed goals and two strong saves for England to produce a competent, uncomplicated and sometimes uncompelling 2-0 victory over Sweden. Now the second-youngest team at the tournament — with an average age of 26 — is in striking distance of the final.

                      Sweden 0 Final 2 England
                      Quarterfinal
                      Harry Maguire (30')
                      Dele Alli (59')
                      England will face Croatia, who beat Russia on penalty kicks, in a semifinal on Wednesday.

                      “We’re not the finished article,” England’s manager, Gareth Southgate, said. “We don’t have renowned, world-class players yet, but we have lots of good, young players who are showing on a world stage that they’re prepared to be brave with the ball, try to play the right way and have showed some resilience over the last few weeks.”

                      The England fan base in recent days has been rallying around a catchphrase — “It’s coming home” — that seemed at first to be cried out with a tinge of irony. It was the product of a perspective established and hardened through years of disappointment at the World Cup; now, increasingly, the slogan appears to harbor a sense of earnest expectation.

                      Continue reading the main story
                      More and more people have jumped on the bandwagon, succumbing to the team’s charms.

                      The spiritual figurehead of the team in many ways has been Southgate, a former England player whose self-effacing enthusiasm has become central to the group’s appeal. With a subtle knack for storytelling, he has done as much as any columnist to build a narrative about his players as lovable underdogs.

                      About their ambition to reach the final, rather than to play a third-place match after losing in the semifinals, Southgate said: “We spoke to the players today that none of us fancied going home. We’ve got to be here for another week, so it’s up to us the games we play in.”

                      And asked about uniting their country during a period of political division, he said: “All these players come from different parts of the country, and there will be youngsters watching at home from the areas that they come from who they’ll be inspiring at this moment, and that is of course even more powerful than what we’re doing with our results.”

                      The road to the final has looked surprisingly open for England for a while now, thanks at first to an easy group stage and now because of a series of fortuitous results in other games. England, with a different series of outcomes, could have faced Brazil or Germany in the quarterfinals and Spain in the next round.

                      For all the perverse joy that neutral fans may have found in seeing the fall of the tournament’s traditional titans, it created the possibility for more games like the one on Saturday — a scrappy affair, with fewer dimensions. Neutral fans looking for an entertaining game here never stood a chance.

                      The Swedes’ approach to this match threw a wet blanket over whatever possibility the occasion might have otherwise presented. On defense, they set up deeply and densely inside their own half, allowing England space to move outside on the wings but not much room to burrow through. The Swedes probed forward infrequently, and in straight lines.

                      Sweden had advanced this far by playing this way, engineering soul-sucking, if ultimately praiseworthy, victories over South Korea and Mexico in the group stage and against Switzerland in the round of 16. “I respect Sweden’s style of play,” Mexico’s manager, Juan Carlos Osorio, had said after his team’s 3-0 loss, “but I don’t agree with it.”

                      And England’s goals on Saturday, one in each half, seemed to do little to get Sweden to change its approach.

                      The first goal came in the 30th minute, when Ashley Young floated a corner kick from the left side, spinning the ball toward the penalty spot, where Harry Maguire rose over the back of Sweden’s Emil Forsberg and thumped a header into the left corner of the goal. It was England’s 10th goal of the tournament, and its eighth from a set piece.

                      England struck again in the 59th minute, when a looping cross from Jesse Lingard, and a lapse in defense from Sweden, released Dele Alli alone on the left post to deposit another header into the net.

                      “They’re heavy, forceful, well organized,” Sweden’s manager, Janne Andersson, said of England. “It’s a good football team. I believe they are perfectly able to go all the way.”

                          he Chicago Red Stars got back to winning ways thanks to a historic three-goal performance from Sam Kerr. The Red Stars defeated Sky Blue FC 3-1 at Yurcak Field in Week 15.

                          The three points for the Red Stars briefly pushed them to second place in the standings and a 6-4-7 overall record with 25 points (but once Week 15 concluded Saturday night, the Red Stars were in fourth place). Sky Blue FC now hold the record for the longest winless streak in NWSL history at 14 games. Entering this match Sky Blue was tied with the 2013 Washington Spirit for having the longest winless streak. Sky Blue remain in last place in the standings at 0-11-3 and three points.

                          Kerr became the first NWSL player to score three hat tricks. This is the 14th hat trick in league history.

                          Saturday’s performance came nearly one year to the day of another memorable Kerr hat trick on the very same field. Last year, her three goal performance led her former team, Sky Blue FC, to a dramatic 3-2 comeback win over FC Kansas City. It was only fitting that the forward in her return to New Jersey scored a hat trick. Kerr’s Week 15 performance also pushed her to eight goals on the season to lead the league and she became the first NWSL player to score 50 career goals.

                          Kerr scored her first goal of the night in the 40th minute. Red Stars goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher played a long service over Sky Blue FC’s backline into forward Alyssa Mautz. Mautz served a ball towards the top of the box to Kerr, who settled it and finished in the lower left corner for the 1-0 lead.

                            John Aldridge: I was delighted to see that diving little cheat finally sent home from

                            Brazil and Neymar departed the World Cup on Friday night after Belgium claimed a 2-1 win in their quarter-final clash - and John Aldridge was delighted to see the back of the PSG star.

                            The Brazilian attacker drew the ire of football fans around the world for his on-pitch antics, with his regular theatrics after getting fouled becoming tiresome very quickly for supporters.

                            Brazil entered the tournament as favourites but leave with their wait for a sixth World Cup crown still ongoing, and writing in his Sunday World column, Aldridge was heavily critical of Neymar once again.

                            "I was delighted to see Belgium beating Brazil in a thrilling quarter-final as it meant the diving little cheat that is Neymar was sent home in a game that continued the trend of brilliant and exciting matches at a wonderful World Cup," he said.

                            "I was delighted to see Neymar dumped on his ass once and for all by Belgium. What was Neymar up to at this World Cup? He is a great player with wondeful talents, but he spends most of the time in every game working out methods to cheat his way to winning free-kicks and penalties.

                            "This guy is a role model for millions of kids around the world and he has a great platform to promote a good image for the game, but he does precisely the opposite."

                              'I'd have gone somewhere else' - Paul Scholes makes surprise admission about final da

                              Paul Scholes has revealed he would have been prepared to play for another club if Alex Ferguson had rejected his attempts to come out of retirement with Manchester United in early 2012.

                              Scholes called time on his highly decorated United career in the summer of 2011, but decided he wanted to play again at the age of 37 and told beIN Sport about his fear of confronting Ferguson with his plan to play again.

                              "I finished at the wrong time and the manager said that to me, that I had another year in me at least and I just didn't feel that way at the time," reflected Scholes.

                              "We got to Christmas time and I was coaching the youth team and the first team was struggling. I think we had Fabio (Da Silva) and Phil Jones playing in central midfield in a game against Blackburn.

                              "I went and knocked on Mike Phealan's door, the assistant (manager), and I said I fancy coming back to play. I wanted to see where he thought the manager would go with it and if he said no, I have gone somewhere else to play because I needed to play.

                              "He said it was a great idea and the next day I was nervous knocking on the manager's door and I was there at half seven in the morning because I wanted to get it out of the way. He shook my hand straight away and said we'll get it sorted."

                              Scholes went on to suggest he should not have continued into the following season, as he recalled an encounter with Gareth Bale at Old Trafford in a game Tottenham won 3-2 as a signal that his time was up.

                              "The mistake I did make is I played for the rest of that season and I shouldn't have gone on then," he confirmed. "I remember a game against Tottenham third of fourth game of the next season and Gareth Bale running at me. That's game over! I was even too slow to kick him, that's the problem."

                              Scholes also gave an insight into his dream career that included eleven Premier League titles and two Champions League wins, as he admitted he has exceeded all of his expectations.

                              "Just to be a footballer was a dream. Even if I had played only one game for Man United, I would have been happy," he added.

                              "To play in a special youth team that bread winners, so many unbelievable footballers and to work for a manager that just wanted to win, it was incredible. It's impossible for that to happen.

                              "I played with some of the best players in the world who didn't get the credit they should have done and I look back sometimes and watch games from 10 15 years ago at how good United were and it was just a pleasure.

                              "When you are inside your career you don't enjoy it. You are more worried because you have to win. You don't realise how lucky you were to play with so many great players."
