Liverpool 1-1 Chelsea: Now Liverpool have a goal ruled out for offside, with the flag correctly going up at Cody Gakpo’s expense as he teed up Curtis Jones to nod home from close range. Replays show he had strayed offside but it was careless on his part. We’re approaching the hour at Anfield, where the tackles are flying in and an entertaining encounter could go either way …

Liverpool 1-1 Chelsea: Cole Palmer thought he had capitalised on a defensive mix-up between Virgil van Dijk and Giorgi Marmadashvili to fire Chelsea into a deserved lead at Anfield shortly after half-time, only for his effort to be ruled out because Marc Cucurella was a smidgen offside in the build-up. Liverpool are second best at Anfield but have got off the hook thanks to VAR. Scott Murray has the latest …

Cameron Norrie stays positive for Paris despite dismal loss to Thiago Agustín Tirante

  • British No 1 beaten in straight sets at Italian Open

  • ‘I can’t be in better mental and physical shape’

Cameron Norrie believes he is still well positioned for a strong performance at the French Open despite being shocked by his standard of play during Saturday’s frustrating 6-3, 7-5 loss to Thiago Agustín Tirante in the second round of the Italian Open on Friday.

Norrie, the British No 1, started the match with a slew of unforced errors, immediately falling 3-0 behind. Those tense early struggles set the tone for a difficult day against one of the most explosive players on the tour. Tirante’s massive first serve consistently scaled 140mph, peaking at 148mph, which the world No 69 backed up by dominating the baseline with his heavy forehand.

Indonesian rescuers retrieve body from Mount Dukono as search continues

Woman recovered after volcanic eruption on remote island, while operation to find two missing Singaporeans goes on

Rescuers have recovered the body of an Indonesian woman who was caught in a volcanic eruption on Mount Dukono on Indonesia’s remote island of Halmahera, officials have said.

Search operations continued on Saturday for the bodies of two Singaporeans. The dead hikers were among 20 who set out to scale the 1,355-metre (4,445ft) volcano in defiance of safety restrictions and became stranded when Dukono erupted early on Friday, spewing a thick ash column about 6 miles (10km) into the air.

Trump airport branding deal opens new route to profit for family

Florida agreement grants US president control of licensing and merchandising at renamed airport, analysts say

It was a week in which one prominent name in aviation, Spirit Airlines, disappeared, killed in the company’s own admission by high fuel prices resulting from Donald Trump’s war in Iran.

Within days, however, another moniker was already flying high in industry circles: the president’s own.

‘It’s about recognising our role in history’: Bradford exhibition to revisit live Somali display

At the city’s Great Exhibition of 1904, 57 Somali men, women and children cooked, weaved and danced for visitors

It was, the posters said, a rare chance to see a “little known but interesting people”: a live display of 57 Somali men, women and children who cooked, weaved and danced for the entertainment of hundreds of thousands of Edwardians who flocked to Yorkshire to see them.

More than 120 years later, this controversial – and, in its time, incredibly popular – show will be revisited in a new exhibition in Bradford that will put Britain’s colonial legacy under the spotlight.

Péter Magyar begint als premier van Hongarije

BOEDAPEST (ANP/RTR) - De pro-Europese conservatieveling Péter Magyar is geïnstalleerd als de nieuwe premier van Hongarije. Zijn partij Tisza bemachtigde bij de verkiezingen in april een ruime tweederdemeerderheid in het parlement.

De nationalistische Viktor Orbán was zestien jaar onafgebroken aan de macht. Onder zijn premierschap werden in Hongarije onder meer de onafhankelijkheid van de rechtspraak, de rechten van lhbti'ers en de persvrijheid ingeperkt.

Ook zette Orbán zich af tegen de Europese Unie, door bijvoorbeeld een lening aan Oekraïne te blokkeren. Brussel houdt nog miljarden euro's aan steunfondsen voor Hongarije bevroren. Het is aan Magyar om die vrij te spelen. Kiezers hopen ook dat Magyar de rechtsstaat kan herstellen en de corruptie in het land kan tegengaan. Hij heeft ze veranderingen beloofd.

Brussel en Kyiv zijn blij met de komst van een nieuwe premier. Zij denken dat Magyar zich constructiever zal opstellen dan Orbán, die banden onderhield met de Russische president Vladimir Poetin.
