Euro 2024 power rankings: a look at the 24 teams going to Germany
While France and England are among the favourites, Austria could spring a surpriseThis was not a vintage window for Didier Deschamps’ side with a home defeat against Germany followed up by a shaky 3-2 win against Chile in Marseille. The captain, Kylian Mbappé, had a difficult few days and the absence of Antoine Griezmann, who missed his first France games for seven years because of injury, was clearly felt. There were positives, however, with the 18-year-old Warren Zaïre-Emery having a good game against Germany and Randal Kolo Muani scoring and assisting against Chile. Deschamps made nine changes for the second game with William Saliba getting a rare start in Marseille, even though the coach had said beforehand that the Arsenal player “does things he doesn’t like”. Still the team to beat. Marcus Christenson Continue reading...

‘Every single work is a masterpiece’: the once-in-a-lifetime exhibition of the greatest Flemish drawings
A new show brings together historic sketches from Bruegel to Rubens and more, capturing fleeting snapshots of everyday 16th- and 17th-century lifeThe women gather in a circle, talking intensely and unselfconsciously, their attention passing from one animated face to another as the conversation darts around the group. They seem completely unaware, from a window above the courtyard where they’re chatting, the artist Jacques Jordaens is sketching them in quick red chalk and brown ink.It is 1659, Antwerp, and, according to Jordaens’ scribbled note at the bottom of the paper, these so-called “gossip aunts” are discussing local political “disturbances” – perhaps the recent strike of the painters’ guild. “It’s a snapshot of daily life that you don’t usually see,” says An Van Camp, the curator of Bruegel to Rubens: Great Flemish Drawings at Oxford’s Ashmolean Museum.

Reforming the draft to The Larry David Rule: NFL changes we’d like to see
The league is transforming kickoffs. But there are other tweaks to football that could improve the sport for players and fansThe NFL will look radically different next season. The league’s owners voted on Tuesday to approve a new kickoff rule originally adopted in the XFL.It is one of the most groundbreaking changes in league history. After slowly legislating the kickoff out of the sport, the league is embracing a new ‘hybrid’ approach that turns the kickoff into something approaching a traditional football play. No longer will kickoffs be passing moments, a chance for broadcasters to cram in a couple of commercial breaks. Continue reading...

Miriam Margolyes' Harry Potter Co-Star 'Didn't Like' Her Blunt Message For Films' Grown-Up Fans
Jessie Cave in 2021Former Harry Potter star Jessie Cave has admitted she doesn’t agree with Miriam Margolyes’ recent comments about the popular film series.Jessie played Lavender Brown in the final three Harry Potter movies, while Miriam appeared in the series as Hogwarts professor Pomona Sprout.Last month, the Bafta winner made an appearance on New Zealand’s 1News, during which she caused a stir for saying: “I worry about [grown-up] Harry Potter fans. They should be over that by now.“You know, I mean, it was 25 years ago, and it’s for children. I think it’s for children. But they get stuck in it.”Miriam added that as part of her work on the website Cameo, she gets requests for video messages from fans having “Harry Potter-themed weddings”, commenting: “Gosh, what’s their first night of fun going to be? I can’t even think about it.”Miriam Margolyes as Professor Sprout in the second Harry Potter filmAsked about Miriam’s remarks at Dream It Con over the weekend, Jessie admitted: “It’s such a shame that that happened.”She continued: “You know how she is — she’s just a bit funny. And I think she didn’t mean for it to be taken like that, I hope.”Jessie then added: “I really don’t like that she said that.”Back in 2020, Miriam explained in a Cameo video message: “I’m not [a Harry Potter fan]. I’m not against it, I’m just not interested.“I’ve never seen a film. I’ve never seen the books, I’ve never read them. I just pocket the money when it comes and I’m very grateful for it.”More recently, she claimed during her cover interview with British Vogue: “For me Harry Potter wasn’t important. I was very glad I got the part and I enjoyed being in it and meeting all the people, but it’s not Charles Dickens.”Since her 1News interview, Miriam doubled down on her Harry Potter claims again, telling Australia’s News Breakfast: “I just think that it’s for children. And if your balls have dropped, then it’s time to forget about it. You know, go on to other things.”READ MORE:Miriam Margolyes Is As Candid As Ever As She Shares Blunt Message For Adult Harry Potter FansMiriam Margolyes Gives Iconic Reason For Rejecting 500K Marvel RoleGraham Norton Makes Surprising Admission About His Outrageous Interviews With Miriam Margolyes
