England vs New Zealand, 1st Test: New Zealand fight back on Day 1 after debutant Matthew Potts strikes for England
England debutant Matthew Potts took four wickets against New Zealand only for the hosts to collapse as well on the opening day of the first Test at Lord's on Thursday. The World Test champions were dismissed for 132 before England, in the first of this three-match series, slumped to 116-7 by stumps. Pre-match, there had been talk of England making a fresh start under new Test captain Ben Stokes and recently-appointed red-ball coach Brendon McCullum, the former New Zealand skipper.

NATIONS LEAGUE | ESPAÑA 1 - PORTUGAL 1 España se duerme en Sevilla
Era el inicio del viaje y como queda mucha carretera por delante habrá que tomarse el resultado con toda la cautela del mundo. España pinchó ante Portugal en el arranque de la Nations League y en lo que se antoja el primer paso hacia ese Mundial de Qatar que aguarda en otoño.

El Eibar logra una victoria fundamental para sus aspiraciones de ascenso. Un duro partido que desequilibró Aketxe con uno de los goles del año, pero que se complicó con la expulsión de Tejero.

Sabía que íbamos a hacer un buen partido y que nos íbamos a levantar. Conozco al equipo y la casta que tienen. Estoy contento, pero todavía no hemos hecho nada».
