Tuesday's briefing: Bellamy defiant after Wales loss as Scotland bounce back

England look to shrug off their struggle to sink minnows Andorra with head coach Thomas Tuchel aware there is plenty of room for improvement ahead of their clash with Senegal. Bellamy's pride in Lions ⏰ FT | 🇧🇪 4-3 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 An enthralling encounter comes to an end in Brussels. 💻 — Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Cymru) June 9, 2025 Craig Bellamy refused to be downhearted after tasting defeat for the first time as Wales boss after an extraordinary seven-goal thriller in Belgium. Wales clawed back from 3-0 down to draw level in a match blighted by lengthy VAR checks before Kevin De Bruyne broke the visitors' hearts by sealing a late 4-3 win for the hosts. The defeat meant Wales were knocked off the top of World Cup qualifying group J by North Macedonia, following their 1-0 win in Kazakhstan. But Bellamy said: 'There's a lot of life in this group and today I saw a lot of life in this team. We aren't going anywhere. 'I will have a couple of weeks now of recharging, but I'm beyond proud and really excited about the future.' Clarke's delight as Scots get back on track Che Adams was a hat-trick hero for Scotland in Liechtenstein (Steve Welsh/PA) Scotland head coach Steve Clarke was satisfied with the way his side bounced back from their 3-1 defeat to Iceland at Hampden Park as they strolled to a 4-0 friendly win in Liechtenstein. Having only scored once in his 19 previous internationals, Che Adams hit a hat-trick and George Adams grabbed his first international goal to restore a mood of optimism in the Scotland camp. 'Our players had a little bit of anger in the performance at the start of the game – they knew that they'd let themselves down in the previous match,' said Clarke. 'So, to start well and get the early goal makes it more comfortable and it's nice to build on that with another three goals. Teams maybe win here but not too many come and score four goals.' Tuchel wants England improvement Thomas Tuchel watched England labour to beat Andorra (Bradley Collyer/PA) Thomas Tuchel has conceded England still have plenty of improvements to make as they prepare to face Senegal in a friendly at Wembley. The new head coach was far from pleased with the way his side laboured to a 1-0 win against minnows Andorra in their World Cup qualifier at the weekend. Ahead of their clash with the African side, Tuchel said: 'We need to improve, for sure. We need to improve in connections, in support, in interactions in the group. 'I feel we are too isolated on the pitch. We have not clicked yet. I don't see it has clicked between the players. 'We haven't done that yet, but it's also not the moment to look only on the negative side. We have a lot of positives to take away in training and in the sessions I see a lot of it, and it will obviously take a little bit to translate it to the pitch.' Spurs close in on Frank Thomas Frank is set to become Tottenham's new manager (Bradley Collyer/PA) Tottenham are closing in on making Brentford boss Thomas Frank their next head coach, the PA news agency understands. Spurs sacked Ange Postecoglou on Friday, despite Europa League success, and quickly set their sights on Frank – who has gained admirers for his work over an impressive seven-year period at the west London club. After positive discussions over the weekend, there is a growing confidence that Frank – whose contract contains a release clause reported to be in the region of £10million – will be the man to replace Postecoglou. What's on today? England face Senegal in a Wembley friendly as Thomas Tuchel continues to survey his options for their continuing World Cup qualifying campaign. The Republic of Ireland are in friendly action in Luxembourg while Northern Ireland host Scotland's recent conquerors Iceland at Windsor Park.

Jess and Norma: Grandmother who had millions of fans on TikTok dies aged 91

A grandmother who found fame on TikTok for posting funny videos with her granddaughter has died aged 91. Norma died on 5 June, her family announced on social media on Monday. Her endearing and comedic videos with 32-year-old Jess went viral, with the duo attracting 2.7 million followers on TikTok. In one viral clip, which was viewed by more than 28 million people, Norma says "we're related" in a series of funny voices - mimicking a cow and a vampire - with both collapsing into fits of giggles. Another, viewed more than 15 million times, involves Jess playing a prank on her grandmother. In the video, Jess says she has the opportunity to win £10,000 - and all she has to do is say on video why she should win it. Jess proceeds to tell viewers a made-up tale about their family life, with Norma doubling over in laughter over the stories she came up with. Norma's family said they had lost "our rock" as they told followers about her death. "We are all truly devastated and our lives will never be the same," the family said. "We want you all to know that Nan fell to sleep peacefully, surrounded by all her family, she was full of love and had the most beautiful care." The family said the community Norma and Jess created online made the nonagenarian's "last years so incredibly special". "Her cup was full and in her own words she 'lived such a wonderful life'," they added.
