United were later drawn to face League Two Grimsby in the pick of the Carabao Cup second-round ties. Spurs suffer Super Cup pain at hands of PSG Tottenham manager Thomas Frank, centre right, watched his new team lose UEFA Super Cup final on penalties (Adam Davy/PA) Tottenham endured penalty shoot-out pain in Thomas Frank's first match in charge as Paris St Germain overturned a two-goal deficit to claim the UEFA Super Cup. Set-piece goals from defenders Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero put Spurs on course for another trophy – only three months since Frank's predecessor Ange Postecoglou clinched Europa League glory in May. But Lee Kang-in pulled a goal back in the 85th minute before PSG substitute Goncalo Ramos headed home in the fourth minute of added time to secure a 2-2 draw and force spot-kicks. Tottenham were handed the initiative when Vitinha missed the Champions League holders' first penalty, only for Van de Ven and Mathys Tel to fail from 12 yards as PSG triumphed 3-2 in the shoot-out to claim the silverware. Rashford: Man Utd 'in no man's land' 🚨 Rashford Ep is Now LIVE! 🚨 🏴 The 2nd English Player At Barca👏 Getting Back To His Best 🤔 What Does Success Look Like?@GaryLineker & @MicahRichards is joined by @MarcusRashford in this exclusive interview ahead of his new season at Barcelona in the latest show below 👇 — The Rest Is Football (@RestIsFootball) August 13, 2025 Marcus Rashford described Manchester United as being in 'no man's land' as he claimed the transition under manager Ruben Amorim 'has not started yet'. England forward Rashford last month left his boyhood club for a season-long loan at Barcelona, having finished the 2024-25 campaign with Aston Villa after falling out of favour following Amorim's arrival. Speaking on The Rest Is Football podcast, the 27-year-old said: 'People say that we've been in a transition for years but to be in a transition you have to start a transition. The actual transition has not started yet. 'We've had that many different managers, different ideas and different strategies to win that you end up in no man's land.' No plans for Premier League match abroad – Masters Premier League chief executive officer Richard Masters (Nick Potts/PA) Premier League chief executive Richard Masters said there are no plans to play a top-flight match abroad. Italy's Serie A and Spain's LaLiga have unveiled plans to stage league fixtures in Australia and the United States respectively as those competitions seek greater worldwide exposure. Masters believes the Premier League has gone global by other means since the idea of a 39th match round abroad was first floated in 2008. 'There are billions of people who will be tuning in over the course of the next the next nine months to watch Premier League action, so we've achieved that objective by different means, that necessity has dissipated,' he said.

Baseball star carted off in tears after suffering heartbreaking injury in first game back after three months out
Cubs catcher Miguel Amaya suffered more heartbreak on Wednesday night as he was carted off the field - just eight innings into his return from injury. The Panamanian, 26, was playing his first game in three months after recovering from a left oblique strain. 'Thank God (I'm) healthy,' Amaya said on Tuesday. But at the top of the eighth in Chicago's game against Toronto on Wednesday, he took a brutal fall as he crossed first base. Amaya flew into the air and landed heavily on the ground. He stayed down and required immediate medical treatment. Chicago trainers eventually lifted Amaya on to a cart and he was driven off the field with a towel over his face. The 26-year-old was only activated from the injured list on Tuesday - having been sidelined since May 25 - but 24 hours later, Cubs manager Craig Counsell had more bad news. Miguel Amaya landed awkwardly on first base and was carted off the field. — Marquee Sports Network (@WatchMarquee) August 14, 2025 'You knew something was pretty seriously wrong pretty quickly,' Counsell said after the game. The manager revealed that X-rays did not show a fracture but Amaya's ankle is 'swollen up pretty good already.' Counsell added: 'It's an IL. It's bad luck, unfortunately, and we're going to miss him.' Rookie right-hander Cade Horton said of Amaya: 'Prayers to him. He's a special player, a great teammate... I hate to see what happened to him.' The third-year catcher has hit .281 with four home runs and 25 RBIs in 28 games. Amaya went 1-for-3 on Wednesday as Chicago earned a 4-1 win over the Blue Jays. Reese McGuire, who replaced him, and Carson Kelly are the other catchers on the roster.
