England fans make early complaint about Women's World Cup Final commentary
England are facing Spain in the Women's World Cup Final in Australia today but fans were left complaining about the coverage within the first few minutes of the match. The Lionesses are looking to make history in Sydney but the BBC had to issue an early apology not long after kick-off. Many viewers picked up on the fact that the Spanish commentators, covering the match for their own country, were audible drowning out the BBC commentators Robyn Cowen and Rachel Brown-Finnis. "Spanish commentator so loud he's also on the BBC broadcast," One viewer said. Another added: "Somebody needs to tell the Spanish commentator to shut up. Why’s he shouting his f**king head off." A third wrote on Twitter/X: "Can do without having to listen to that Spanish commentator shouting in the background for 90 minutes." There was also an inevitable reference to the Simpsons and the famous scene where the show made a joke about football. The Spanish commentary was eventually faded out of the feed and Cowen issued an apology to anyone watching. At the time of writing, the score is currently 0-0 between England and Spain.

Jude Bellingham marks Real Madrid debut with goal in victory at Athletic Bilbao
England international Jude Bellingham scored on his LaLiga debut as Real Madrid began their league season with a 2-0 victory at Athletic Bilbao. Bellingham, who joined Real from Borussia Dortmund earlier this summer, scored his team’s second goal eight minutes before half-time. Rodrygo had opened the scoring nine minutes earlier, and it proved a dominant display by Real, with Bellingham at the heart of it. Saturday’s other two LaLiga games finished as draws, with Real Sociedad being held 1-1 at home by Girona and Real Mallorca claiming a point by the same scoreline at Las Palmas. Takefusa Kubo put Socieded in front after just five minutes at the Reale Arena, but Artem Dovbyk’s header in the 72nd minute secured a share of the spoils. Las Palmas went in front through Jonathan Viera’s 29th-minute penalty, but the home side could not hold on to that advantage and Antonio Raillo equalised in the second half. Paris St Germain saw their Ligue 1 campaign begin in frustrating fashion as they were held to a 0-0 draw by Lorient at Parc des Princes. Despite creating numerous chances, PSG could find no way through resilient opposition and will feel it was a case of two points dropped. Kylian Mbappe, Neymar and Marco Verratti, meanwhile, who have all been linked with moves away from Paris, were left out of the matchday squad by boss Luis Enrique. And Marseille claimed a comeback victory against Reims at Stade Velodrome, with Vitinha’s 73rd-minute goal securing a 2-1 win after Junya Ito had given Reims the lead and Azzedine Ounahi equalised.
