🥳 Scotland attacker bags first international goal against Liechtenstein
George Hirst was denied his first-ever international goal on Friday evening during Scotland's 3-1 defeat to Iceland with a glaring miss, but made no mistake when presented with another opportunity against Liechtenstein.
The Tartan Army already led the European minnows 2-0 at half time and Hirst added a third just minutes into the second half.

The Ipswich attacker was first to react when Adams headered into the six-yard box and applied a simple finish to get off the mark in a Scotland shirt.
Hirst has made just two starts for Scotland and will hope to extend his international tally in the coming years.

Simone Biles ‘incinerated her legacy' with trans athlete posts: Riley Gaines
Riley Gaines broke down the personal attack Simone Biles levied on her on social media and what it really meant for the Olympic gold medalist and one of the greatest gymnasts of all-time. Gaines dropped the latest episode of the 'Gaines for Girls' podcast on OutKick and recorded the show a few hours after Biles came after her on X. Gaines gave Biles her flowers as one of the best athletes to have ever performed in sports, but said the posts put a bad mark on her resume. Advertisement 'In just two tweets, Simone Biles basically tarnished her reputation to anyone with a shred of honesty, to anyone with a moral compass and to anyone with an inherent innate desire to protect women, to fight for equal opportunity for both men and women especially as it pertains to sports,' she said. 'The conclusion I'm drawing based on the response we have seen over the past 12-ish hours at this point on social media, she's basically incinerated her legacy in just two tweets.' Biles launched into an attack on Gaines on Friday as the former NCAA All-American swimmer reacted to a transgender athlete winning a state championship in Minnesota softball. 3 Simone Biles attends Netflix's 'Simone Biles Rising' FYC event at Hollywood Athletic Club on June 02, 2025 in Hollywood, California.

Getty Images Advertisement The Olympic gymnast called Gaines a 'bully' and said that 'no one in sports is safe with you around.' Gaines said during her podcast that she believed that Biles' post showed she may be finished competing in gymnastics with her apparent support of transgender athletes, taking a page out of Megan Rapinoe's playbook. Rapinoe said in 2023 she would support a transgender player on the US women's national team. She retired from the sport later that year. 'What she's done here is pull up the ladder behind her,' Gaines said of Biles. 'We've seen people like Megan Rapinoe do this. Simone Biles is just the latest where apparently she's done competing. Just like Megan Rapinoe did – waited until they were done competing to take a stance on this issue, which for the life of me I cannot understand. 3 Simone Biles of Team United States competes on the balance beam during the Artistic Gymnastics Women's All-Around Final on day six of the Olympic Games Paris 2024 at Bercy Arena on August 01, 2024 in Paris, France. Getty Images Advertisement 'Take me out of the equation. Again, I don't care about the personal attacks. I cannot for the life of me understand why Simone Biles, in the year 2025, would advocate for this.' Biles said she would welcome a debate or discussion to talk about the issue of transgender athletes in girls' and women's sports. Gaines has been at the forefront of championing fairness in women's sports since she tied with Lia Thomas in the 2022 NCAA Championships. 'I think she blindly advocated for this without actually thinking about the effects of what this would look like,' Gaines said. 'How no one would know Simone Biles if it weren't for women's gymnastics. … If her inclusive dream was a reality, she would have zero gold medals.'

There's only one Jordon Hudson confidant willing to talk about her — here's what he said
There have been many descriptors added to Jordon Hudson's name over the past 12 months as her relationship with Bill Belichick has come under intense scrutiny. For the lone Hudson confidant who has spoken publicly about the former college cheerleader, one label transcends new heights. 'I consider her a supernova,' celebrity hairstylist Dougie Freeman, who likened his one-time employee to the phenomenon described by NASA as the 'extremely bright, super powerful explosion of a star,' said in a new interview with The Athletic. Advertisement 5 One Jordon Hudson confidant is opening up to The Athletic about Bill Belichick's 24-year-old girlfriend. Getty Images 5 Bill Belichick's romance with Jordon Hudson became public in 2024. Getty Images for the American Museum of Natural History 'Our motto here at the salon is, 'Let us help you use what you've got to get what you want' … and maybe Jordon Hudson is a good example of that.' Advertisement Hudson, who shot to fame in the summer of 2024 when her romance with the 73-year-old Belichick became public, began working at Freeman's West End Salon & Spa in Provincetown, Mass., when she was still in high school. 5 Dougie Freeman worked with Jordon Hudson. Facebook/West End Salon and Spa Freeman believes the Massachusetts town, regarded as one of the most welcoming and friendly LGBTQ+ locales in the country, helped to broaden Hudson's horizons. 'Growing up in this town, she saw how alternative relationships work. They can work,' Freeman said. 'I think that validated it for her.' Advertisement Freeman is one of the few connected to Hudson who has opened up about the Miss Maine USA contestant, with The Athletic noting the 'dozen-plus friends of Hudson' whom they reached out to did not get back to the outlet. 5 Jordon Hudson's profile has continued to rise amid her relationship with Bill Belichick. WireImage 'She seems to be doing fine,' said Freeman, who 'last spoke to Hudson via a series of internet DMs,' per The Athletic. 'She said, 'I understand you're going to do an interview with the Washington Post.' And I said, 'I said a lot of nice things about you, I think you'll be pleased with it.' And I assume she was.' Advertisement Hudson has been by Belichick's side as he prepares for his first season coaching North Carolina's football team. 5 Bill Belichick with Jordon Hudson in March 2025. Getty Images Although there has been much speculation about Hudson's role in Chapel Hill — much of which began after a disastrous 'CBS Sunday Morning' appearance in April, when she punted a question about the origins of the Belichick relationship — the eight-time Super Bowl winner clarified her position in an ESPN interview last month. 'That's really off to the side, it's a personal relationship. She doesn't have anything to do with UNC football,' Belichick said. With the Tar Heels' season opener against TCU approaching on Sept. 1, all eyes remain on Belichick and Hudson — something Freeman cautioned as her star continues to rise. 'Fame comes with some barbs,' he said. 'And it doesn't always come with fortune.' Hudson and Belichick first crossed paths aboard a flight in 2021. They celebrated their four-year meet-iversary in February.
