Krejcikova navigates tricky Wimbledon start to put supercomputers in their place
Barbora Krejcikova avoided the curse of the early Czech-out on Tuesday as she held off the hustle of rising Filipino star Alexandra Eala to progress to the second round at Wimbledon. The defending women's champion has seen her season blitzed by injury, and was predicted by Wimbledon's in-house supercomputers to lose here and echo her compatriot Marketa Vondruosava, who last year became the first women's champion to exit at the first round since 1994. After an opening set in which she was outrun and outpowered by the 20-year-old Eala, however, Krejcikova found her form and kept her cool in the heat of mid-afternoon to claim her place in the second round. Against a shimmering backdrop of supporters beating their fans under the centre court sun it was a battle between experience and enthusiasm, with the latter landing the first blow. Eala was distraught on losing in the final at Eastbourne last weekend, and looked determined to make an impression here as she battered Krejcikova early on with a series of punishing strokes off either side. The 29-year-old champion, who pulled out of Eastbourne with a thigh complaint, seemed to lack both the agility and the power to keep up and dropped consecutive service games on the way to losing the first set 6-3. A clean hold at the start of the second set gave the Czech a chance to catch her breath and a lucky forehand winner at 0-15 gave her a platform to build a break in the second game of the second set. She took the opportunity with both hands and soon swept to a 5-0 lead with both power and movement at striking odds to the action witnessed earlier in the contest. Such are the vicissitudes of this sport and as Krejcikova rose so Eala began to drop in her levels, the left-hander no longer able to deploy her power as reliably as she had. It was Eala making the errors, and Krejcikova finding her marks and the Czech broke Eala's opening service game to take what proved the vital lead in the match. As Eala tried and failed to fight her way back into the match her frustration began to become more visible. Krejcikova displayed her emotions just once, meanwhile, yelling as she sealed a second break to go 5-1 up in the final set. Having played just six matches in the year to this point, Krejcikova's body may not be at its most highly conditioned. Her mentality, however, is drum tight.

The trouble with underdog stories at the Club World Cup
What a beautiful tale … right? The full-time whistle brought those scenes we know well from the real World Cup. Players on their knees: the victors turning to the heavens, the losers sucked into the dirt. Simone Inzaghi looked a particularly happy chap just weeks on from his nadir, that Bigger Cup embarrassment with Inter against PSG. Manchester City, the European heavyweights, had just been defeated by his brave underdogs, Al-Hilal. Yes, those same longshots who two years ago tried to buy Kylian Mbappé from PSG for £259m, shortly after coming under the ownership of Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund. The PIF – which appears intent on clawing its mitts over sport – is the investment arm of a journalist-killing state and chaired by the big man himself, Mohammed bin Salman. The fund is also an official partner of Copa Gianni while a PIF subsidiary bought a $1bn stake in Dazn, the tournament broadcaster, earlier this year. They didn't get Mbappé but they still nabbed Neymar. Al-Hilal may have delivered a sporting upset – 'We knew we had to climb Mount Everest without oxygen and we were great,' proclaimed Inzaghi – but this isn't a plucky underdog story. And no, that doesn't make City a group of saints. It's finally summer time for Pep Guardiola, though a nagging feeling will follow, the question left to be answered on how these few weeks in the USA USA USA will impact his side next season/this season (the lines feel blurred with this tournament). Prior to the Al-Hilal match he had wondered out loud if his club will be 'destroyed' by the Copa Gianni when their regular commitments resume. An extra couple of weeks on the beach – the final is still another 12 days away – could end up being a decent consolation. Plenty of powerhouses remain, though they remain stuck on one side of the draw; PSG have Bayern in the quarters, with the winner potentially facing Real Madrid in the semi-finals. Chelsea supporters should perhaps allow themselves to believe; they must beat Palmeiras if they want to set up a possible semi-final clash with Al-Hilal. The gaudy wastefulness of a project that has turned Brighton into a de-facto academy against the pillar of a behemoth propaganda machine. Let the beautiful game commence. Join Beau Dure from 8pm BST for very hot MBM coverage of Real Madrid 3-1 Juventus in the last 16 of Copa Gianni. The incongruity of the situation escapes no one – except, of course, Gianni Infantino and his flatterers. From his ivory tower, which he tours around the world, the president shows no concern for the fate the international calendar reserves for top players. His [Copa Gianni] proves, to the point of absurdity, that it is urgent to stop this game of massacre' – France's professional footballers' union (UNFP) hits out at the Fifa overlord amid growing concern over fixture congestion and player welfare, including that from Fifpro, which has called on half-time breaks being extended to 20 minutes in extreme heat. If a tree falls in a forest, and no one is around, does it make a sound? If a football team loses in a competition, and no one is watching, is it a shock?' – Darren Leathley. From yesterday's full email edition, many thanks for sharing with us the tale of Dorking's Marc White and his dire attempt to recreate the Wheeltappers and Shunters Social Club (kids, ask your nan why that was even a thing). Can I just point out that due to the consequent ban, your caption on that photo of the guy clearly standing on a touchline shouldn't be 'he'll be here all week'. That's the one place he won't be for a bit' – Jon Millard. Re: this news story. 'Footage of three-a-side game shows humanoids struggling to kick the ball or stay upright.'

Complete the sequence: Rob Edwards, Ian Burchnall, Duncan Ferguson, David Horseman, Troy Deeney, Steve Cotterill … xxxx? The answer, of course, is Robbie Savage, who has just been appointed as the latest permanent manager of Forest Green Rovers. The National League side missed out on promotion back to the EFL last season and have poached the former Wales international from Macclesfield FC, who won the Northern Premier League under Savage, collecting 109 points and scoring 109 goals on the way to promotion to National League North. 'I feel I have an opportunity to develop a squad to create an attacking brand of football – an aggressive form of football to try and get Forest Green back into the EFL,' roared Savage, who will compete against compatriot Mark Hughes and his Carlisle United side in the fifth tier at the New Lawn. 'I want a fast, exciting style but the most important thing is to win games.' Fluminense are through to the Copa Gianni quarter-finals after dumping out Inter 2-0, courtesy of Germán Cano's early goal and a mighty strike from Hércules. 'I was thinking about Milan,' declared Thiago Silva, who used to play for the Rossoneri. 'I'm sure [their] fans will be happy about Inter's defeat and our victory.' As for the Bigger Cup runners-up, skipper Lautaro Martínez didn't hold back. 'I want to fight for the major titles. Anyone who wants to stay at Inter, fine, let's fight. But anyone who doesn't want to stay can leave,' he sniiffed. England's Beth Mead reckons the Lionesses are well prepared to cope with the heatwave that awaits them in Switzerland after flying out from a heatwave at home. 'We've trained really hard, the intensity has been great and our recovery strategies that we've put in place have been really good so – fingers crossed – it's prepared us as best as we can be for when we get there,' she cheered. Tammy Abrahams is swapping Roma for Beskitas. 'Hello Black Eagles, I'm coming for you. See you at the airport today,' he tooted. Jørgen Strand Larsen's loan at Wolves has become a permanent move from Celta Vigo. Hull City owner Acun Ilicali (six permanent managers and counting since taking over in January 2022) claims that Sky Sports will be following him next season. Asked what his expectations were for latest incumbent, Sergej Jakirovic, he replied: 'Top 10. I believe in myself and my staff. Top 10 and then we will see.' And new Wolfsburg boss Paul Simonis – nicknamed the 'Gouda Guardiola' – says he's a big fan of the real thing after arriving from Go Ahead Eagles. 'I really like … not because he looks like [me] … but I really like Pep Guardiola,' cooed Simonis. 'I was already bald before he was bald. What I like about these guys is how the players talk about them. If you take good care of them, they will pay you back.'
