The FACopyright: The FA
Notts County have been prevented from signing a goalkeeper on an emergency loan before Saturday's Women's FA Cup final against Chelsea.
Carly Telford (pictured) is Notts' only keeper eligible to face Chelsea and will be forced to start, despite only returning from a dislocated shoulder on Sunday.
Players are only eligible to feature at Wembley if they were registered for the sixth round of the competition on 12 April, meaning Danielle Hill and on-loan Siobhan Chamberlain are unavailable.
"Sometimes common sense has to kick in," said chief executive Luke Negus-Hill. "It could - touch wood it won't - end up with an outfield player being in goal."

Norwich City boss Alex Neil says striker Cameron Jerome and left-back Martin Olsson are making good progress as they recover from injuries.
Jerome, who was the Canaries' top scorer last season, has a foot problem while Olsson is on his way back to fitness after shoulder surgery.
"Cameron's doing straight-line running now, so it's just getting him twisting and turning and he should be fine," Neil told BBC Radio Norfolk.
"Martin's making great progress, so I think the next step for him is to start getting contact."
Left-armer Junaid, 25, is available to play in the One-Day Cup and also in the Championship if required.

Vietnam 1-8 (EIGHT) Man City
Full-time
And it's all over. Quyet's neat lob was the final piece of action, which was fitting given the effort Vietnam put in throughout.
The hosts might not have been in the same stratosphere skill-wise but you couldn't fault their workrate.
City will be happy with the performance and the result. They did what they had to against inferior opposition and looked sharp, passing the ball well throughout. And no one got injured. Job done.
GOAL: Vietnam 1-8 (EIGHT) Man City

Jeepers creepers, a goal for Vietnam.
Quyet is the man who scores and it's a nice finish too, dinking the ball over Willy Caballero from eight yards. Lovely stuff.

GOAL: Vietnam 0-7 Man City
Lopes (73 mins)
This is getting silly. Substitute Rony Lopes wriggles through the middle of the penalty area and lets fly with one of the weakest shot you'll see.
Despite the distinct lack of ferocity, the Vietnam keeper somehow allows the ball to wriggle under his body.
This may well prove to be City's easiest game of the entire season.
GOAL: Vietnam 0-6 Man City
Silva (65 mins)
Raheem Sterling, having a cracking game, sets up David Silva for City's sixth.
He threads a pass onto the Spaniard's boots inside the area and Silva finishes in delightful style, chipping the keeper from close-range.
Lovely goal.
It's Silva's last contribution, he's withdrawn straight after.
Just in case you've lost track, Sterling, Kolarov and Silva have two goals apiece.

Bacary Sagna concedes a free kick on the edge of the box. Kolarov - wearing the skipper's armband after Joe Hart's withdrawal - sprints over to the ref and screams in his face. Now that's commitment at 5-0 up.
Kolarov needn't have got his knickers in a twist, the free kick rebounded harmlessly off the City wall.

Kolarov (50 mins)
Aleksandar Kolarov blasts a spot kick past the keeper.
Raheem Sterling wanted to take it - he's on a hat-trick remember - but Kolarov over-ruled him and took the ball out of his hand. Now Kolarov's on a hat-trick too.
Bit harsh on Sterling as he was the chap who won the pen in the first place.

If I said there was a gulf in class here it would be an understatement on a par with Sir Alex Ferguson likes to chew gum a little.
It's no contest here. City have dominated, given all the time and space in the world to knock the ball around and create openings.
They've scored four times - including a brace for Sterling - but could have had double that. Training session stuff towards the end of the half.

By that I mean Joe Hart just got a touch of the ball, the big man saving a shot. The crowd go wild and little wonder - they've not exactly had much to cheer about so far.
But normal service is soon resumed as City pour forward again, Silva letting fly from distance but his shot just clearing the bar.

Rogers, 37, retired hurt on 49 in the second innings of the Lord's Test, saying he could see the stands move. He was hit on the helmet by a James Anderson bouncer.
But he underwent a full net session on Monday, facing balls from pace-trio Starc, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood.

Yep, Sterling is definitely fit. He's just scored again.
It's a great goal too,. Sterling starts a move, then latches on to a beautiful backheel by Iheanacho to finish it, shooting calmly past the keeper. This is easy peasy.

Vietnam 0-3 Man City
Pre-season friendly
Vietnam are ranked 143rd in the Fifa standings, which basically - at the risk of causing a diplomatic incident - means they're not the best.
It looks like that too as City score twice in the space of two minutes to essentially end the game as a contest.
Sterling's strike was a nice curling effort from the left edge of the penalty area. Then, with the Vietnamese defence appearing to operate a strict no-tackling policy, Silva headed against the crossbar before tapping in the rebound from his own effort.
Oh dear, this could be a rout. Actually, take the word 'could' out of that. It will be a rout.

Then he threw all of his toys out of the pram when he hit Fonte. Complete waste of money.

Daniel Aspel: Mitroglou to Fulham, surely? £12m for an injured guy who played three games, never scored, we got relegated, he went back on loan to his original club and scored a winner against Atletico Madrid. Total farce.
Chris Kelly: Pascal Cygan. At first looked like a rock solid addition to our defence, was actually the worst defender I've ever seen in an Arsenal shirt.

Nathan Critchlow: Roque Santa Cruz at City. Four years, 20 appearances, three goals. Always injured or farmed out on loan to gain fitness. After Blackburn form he was hugely underwhelming.

We'll have more on him shortly, plus the rest of the day's sporting news - including Real Madrid v Inter at 13:00 BST (with Gareth Bale likely to be involved) and a new face at Man United.
Welcome to Sportsday, first a glance at the papers...

Independent person to lead Fifa reform
Football
Fifa has said its reform taskforce will be chaired by an independent person from outside of football.
Fifa president Sepp Blatter announced plans last week to form an 11-person panel to review football's scandal-hit world governing body.
Domenico Scala had earlier said he would only lead the taskforce if he is guaranteed full independence.
The Swiss businessman is the already independent chair of Fifa's audit and compliance committee.
Boro loan Fabbrini from Watford
Football
Middlesbrough have signed midfielder Diego Fabbrini on a season-long loan from Premier League newcomers Watford.
Fabbrini has Championship experience with his parent club, as well as playing 17 games on loan at Millwall and Birmingham City last season.
Boro also hope to complete a deal to sign striker Christian Stuani from Espanyol this week.
Warrington's Westwood may miss semi-final
Rugby League
Warrington's Ben Westwood could miss Saturday's Challenge Cup semi-final against Hull KR because of suspension.
The 34-year-old forward has been accused of a Grade B shoulder charge on Luke Gale during in Sunday's 44-6 Super League win at Castleford and could be banned for up to two games on Tuesday.
Tigers half-back Gale was later withdrawn and taken to hospital for overnight observation.
Preston sign Bristol City's Cunningham
Football
Preston North End have signed Bristol City defender Greg Cunningham for an undisclosed fee on a two-year-deal.
The 24-year-old, who has been capped four times by the Republic of Ireland, began his career at Manchester City.
Cunningham becomes manager Simon Grayson's third signing of the summer, following the arrivals of Jermaine Beckford and Paul Gallagher.
Fined for ref comments
Rugby Union
Catalans Dragons chairman Bernard Guasch has been fined and warned by the Rugby Football League for his comments criticising the ref after his club's home defeat by Huddersfield earlier this month.
Guasch issued a statement saying: "Enough is enough! We have had another two points taken away from us today because of the scandalous decisions of the referees."
The Catalans owner was deemed to be in breach of the RFL's rules and has been fined £1,000 and warned about his future conduct.
Notts goalkeeper request blocked
Football
Notts County have been prevented from signing a goalkeeper on an emergency loan before Saturday's Women's FA Cup final against Chelsea.
Carly Telford (pictured) is Notts' only keeper eligible to face Chelsea and will be forced to start, despite only returning from a dislocated shoulder on Sunday.
Players are only eligible to feature at Wembley if they were registered for the sixth round of the competition on 12 April, meaning Danielle Hill and on-loan Siobhan Chamberlain are unavailable.
"Sometimes common sense has to kick in," said chief executive Luke Negus-Hill. "It could - touch wood it won't - end up with an outfield player being in goal."
Stoke sign Afellay
Football
Stoke sign Afellay
Football
Afellay is Stoke's eighth signing this summer following the arrivals of Phillip Wollscheid, Jakob Haugaard, Joselu, Marco van Ginkel, Glen Johnson, Shay Given and Moha.
Chief executive Tony Scholes said: "It's no secret that Ibrahim was wanted by a number of clubs and we are understandably delighted that he has chosen to join us.
"He's clearly excited about the prospect of playing in the Premier League and the fact that he knows so many players who are already at the club will no doubt help him settle into his new surroundings."
Stoke confirm Afellay signing
Football
We brought you this news earlier and Stoke have now confirmed they have signed former Barcelona winger Ibrahim Afellay on a two-year contract.
The Dutch international has flown to France to link-up with the Potters squad at their training camp in Evian
Get involved - transfer let-downs
Tweet us at #bbcsportsday
Shaun Wright-Phillips is on the move today, but fans from his last club won't remember his time there fondly. He makes it into our latest entries of disappointing transfers.
Will Crane: Has to be SWP at QPR, never looked confident and a shadow of his former self. One goal (but what a goal) in 67 games.
Steve Harr: Transfer let down... WHU & Mascherano. Couldn't oust Mullins in our starting XI but has since become an ever-present at Barcelona.
Peterwari Soberekon: Bebe will be disappointed he's not been mentioned yet. Worst signing in the Premiership. £7m for an unknown player.
Jerome and Olsson progressing - Neil
Football
Norwich City boss Alex Neil says striker Cameron Jerome and left-back Martin Olsson are making good progress as they recover from injuries.
Jerome, who was the Canaries' top scorer last season, has a foot problem while Olsson is on his way back to fitness after shoulder surgery.
"Cameron's doing straight-line running now, so it's just getting him twisting and turning and he should be fine," Neil told BBC Radio Norfolk.
"Martin's making great progress, so I think the next step for him is to start getting contact."
Middlesex sign Pakistan's Junaid
Cricket
Middlesex have signed Pakistan fast bowler Junaid Khan as a replacement overseas player for Joe Burns.
Left-armer Junaid, 25, is available to play in the One-Day Cup and also in the Championship if required.
He has played 22 Tests, 52 one-day internationals and nine Twenty20 games for his country.
Junaid could make his debut against Lancashire, the side he represented in the T20 Blast in 2014, in their One-Day Cup tie at Blackpool on Wednesday.
Australia win 3rd ODI
Women's Ashes
Australia have won the third ODI by 89 runs at Worcester.

Here's a name you may remember... Jose Luis Chilavert. The former Paraguay goalkeeper and part-time goal machine is 50 today. Here's another important number for you - 67. That's how many he put in the back of the net during his career. Remarkable.
FA aims to continue WSL expansion

Bashley sack boss after 40 days
Football
The season hasn't even started yet and we have had our first sacking.
A non-league manager has been sacked for "a run of poor pre-season results and lack of player signings".
Former Chelsea defender David Stride had been in charge of Southern League side Bashley for just 40 days.
"It's absolute codswallop. The club already had someone in mind to replace me, but waited two weeks before telling me," Stride told BBC Sport.
Chairman Tim Allan said: "We made a tough decision to change things around now rather than the possibility of having more upheaval during the season."
Messi, Neymar, Ronaldo... Muirhead?
Football
Dundee United teenager Robbie Muirhead is battling it out with superstars Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar for Uefa's goal of the season.
Muirhead's long-range strike for Scotland Under-19s against Norway is in the European governing body's top 10 for the 2014-15 campaign.
Arsenal's Aaron Ramsey is on the list for his volley against Galatasaray. And Erik Lamela of Tottenham is included for his "rabona" finish in the win over Asteras Tripolis.
Wright-Phillips signs for New York Red Bulls

Some facts about Shaun Wright-Phillips, who signed for New York Red Bulls earlier today (see 15:07).
Ayew signs for Villa
Football
Jordan Ayew is a very happy man indeed (see 15.28). Here's what he's got to say following the announcement of his move from French side Lorient to Aston Villa...
"I am the happiest man in the world," he said. "It's one of my greatest days in football.
"My dream was to play for a big team in England - and Aston Villa is undoubtedly one of the greats in English football.
"When I spoke to the coach [Tim Sherwood] I knew this was the place for me... it took 10 seconds to work out he was the right coach for me and Aston Villa was the right team for me."
Pienaar to miss start of season
Football
Everton midfielder Steven Pienaar will miss the start of the season because of a hamstring injury, boss Roberto Martinez has confirmed.
The midfielder sat out Sunday's game at Hearts after suffering the problem in training and has now returned to Finch Farm to be assessed and begin his rehabilitation.
The full extent of the injury is still unknown and Martinez said: "He's going to miss the start of the season, which is a real shame because Stevie worked with fantastic results and fantastic signs over the first three weeks or pre-season."
Amateur bowler takes 10-wicket haul
Cricket
An amateur bowler hoping to break into first-class cricket took all 10 wickets in an innings during a club match in Northamptonshire.
Joe Dawborn returned figures of 10-22 while playing for Peterborough Town in the Northants Premier League.
The 21-year-old also represents Northants' second team on a non-contract basis, and has had trials with both Middlesex and Leicestershire.
Win pleases Ronaldo
Football
Earlier today Real Madrid beat Inter Milan 3-0 in a friendly in China.
'Next stop Rio'
Swimming
We mentioned earlier today (13:30 BST) that Jack Burnell had qualified for the 2016 Olympics in Rio. Well, he has tweeted. And, quite rightly, is a little bit excited.
Player in intensive care after injury
Football
A footballer is in intensive care in a Cairo hospital after suffering serious injuries in a match.
Rudy Guelord Bhebey-Ndey, a 25-year-old striker for AC Leopards, was injured after a collision with the goalkeeper of Egyptian club Zamalek during a CAF Confederation Cup game.
"He was in a very bad condition when he arrived," neurosurgeon Salah Abdel-Khalek told an Egyptian radio station.
"The footballer had serious damage to his spinal column between the fifth and sixth vertebrae, a blow to the spinal cord, breathing difficulties and brain bleeding, but the surgery was successful.
"He will remain in intensive care for two days, where he is currently using a ventilator."
Wolves accept Wigan bid for Jacobs
Football
Wolves have accepted a bid from League One side Wigan for winger Michael Jacobs, Wanderers head coach Kenny Jackett has confirmed.
He told BBC WM: "The club have accepted an offer for him and we'll see how that progresses."

More of your disappointing transfers.
Karl Bristow: Has to be Karel Poborsky. Remember how excited I was when United signed him after his brilliance at Euro 96. He never recreated it.
Garry Brogden: Afonso Alves to Boro. Chased him for six months, paid twice what we originally offered and he got four goals in a relegation season.
Marc: Heskey for Villa, we were negotiating with Falcao and Benzema and got the the gentle giant, total "meh" moment.
Inniss moves from Palace on loan
Football
Vietnam 1-8 (EIGHT) Man City
Full-time
And it's all over. Quyet's neat lob was the final piece of action, which was fitting given the effort Vietnam put in throughout.
The hosts might not have been in the same stratosphere skill-wise but you couldn't fault their workrate.
City will be happy with the performance and the result. They did what they had to against inferior opposition and looked sharp, passing the ball well throughout. And no one got injured. Job done.
GOAL: Vietnam 1-8 (EIGHT) Man City
90 mins
Jeepers creepers, a goal for Vietnam.
Quyet is the man who scores and it's a nice finish too, dinking the ball over Willy Caballero from eight yards. Lovely stuff.
Westwood faces Challenge Cup ban
Rugby League
Warrington Wolves forward Ben Westwood could miss Saturday's Challenge Cup semi-final against Hull KR through suspension for an alleged grade B shoulder charge on Castleford's Luke Gale.
Tigers coach Daryl Powell called for retrospective action after it went unpunished at the time. Westwood will learn his fate on Tuesday evening when a panel will decide what - if any - sanction he should face.
Vietnam 0-8 (EIGHT) Man City
Pre-season friendly
Vietnam, in case you're wondering, drew 1-1 against North Korea in their last game.
Then again North Korea didn't have Raheem Sterling and David Silva up front.
At least those two are no longer on the pitch, with Manuel Pellegrini now changing his whole side to ensure everyone gets a run-out.
Three minutes to go, which is no doubt music to Vietnamese ears.
Football
Vietnam 0-8 (EIGHT) Manchester City
Some action pictures from Hanoi, via Manchester City's Twitter account.
Vietnam 0-8 (EIGHT) Man City
Pozo (77 mins)
Jose Angel Pozo, another sub, gets in on the act.
Another good finish from a tight angle, but more awful defending.
It's reminiscent of a primary school game where one team is full of big, powerful skilful lads and the other is, well - let's be kind here - not quite as good.
Vietnam's players are beginning to look a little demoralised. Can't think why.
On this day...
Olympics
2012: The London Olympic Games officially got under way with Danny Boyle's unforgettable 'Isles of Wonder' ceremony. We'd love to bring you the image of 'the Queen' jumping out of the helicopter but our search has come up dry. Instead, here's a man dressed as an angel on a flying bike. Magical stuff.
GOAL: Vietnam 0-7 Man City
Lopes (73 mins)
This is getting silly. Substitute Rony Lopes wriggles through the middle of the penalty area and lets fly with one of the weakest shot you'll see.
Despite the distinct lack of ferocity, the Vietnam keeper somehow allows the ball to wriggle under his body.
This may well prove to be City's easiest game of the entire season.
GOAL: Vietnam 0-6 Man City
Silva (65 mins)
Raheem Sterling, having a cracking game, sets up David Silva for City's sixth.
He threads a pass onto the Spaniard's boots inside the area and Silva finishes in delightful style, chipping the keeper from close-range.
Lovely goal.
It's Silva's last contribution, he's withdrawn straight after.
Just in case you've lost track, Sterling, Kolarov and Silva have two goals apiece.
Vietnam 0-5 Man City
Pre-season friendly
Bacary Sagna concedes a free kick on the edge of the box. Kolarov - wearing the skipper's armband after Joe Hart's withdrawal - sprints over to the ref and screams in his face. Now that's commitment at 5-0 up.
Kolarov needn't have got his knickers in a twist, the free kick rebounded harmlessly off the City wall.
The game's going through a quiet period here, hard for City to get too motivated given how easy things are. Half-an-hour to go.
Romero could feature on Wednesday
Football
Simon Stone
BBC Sport
"Goalkeeper Sergio Romero is in the US and will train with Manchester United ahead of Wednesday's game against Paris St-Germain in Chicago."
United announced the signing of Argentina international Romero earlier today.
Who is Jordan Ayew?
Football
As Jordan Ayew arrives at Villa Park, presumably to fill a gap left by Christian Benteke, here are some need-to-knows on the Ghanaian striker.
Ayew signs for Villa
Football
Confirmation of what we brought you earlier today as Jordan Ayew signs for Aston Villa from French side Lorient.
Villa were in the market for a striker after selling Belgian Christian Benteke to Liverpool for £32.5m.
The Midlanders, who also lost Fabian Delph to Manchester City, have signed Jordan Amavi, Idrissa Gueye, Scott Sinclair, Micah Richards and Mark Bunn.
GOAL: Vietnam 0-5 Man City
Kolarov (50 mins)
Aleksandar Kolarov blasts a spot kick past the keeper.
Raheem Sterling wanted to take it - he's on a hat-trick remember - but Kolarov over-ruled him and took the ball out of his hand. Now Kolarov's on a hat-trick too.
Bit harsh on Sterling as he was the chap who won the pen in the first place.
Women's Ashes - 3rd ODI
WICKET
England are making heavy weather of their ODI against Australia. Lauren Winfield is run out for a single that was as hopeful as some blue sky at New Road. But the heavy weather could be their saviour as the covers come on for a rain delay. Can they settle down if and when they come off again?
Find out with our live commentary and text updates here. That's 30-3 with England chasing 242.
Vietnam 0-4 Man City
Pre-season friendly
And we're back under way at the My Dinh National Stadium in Hanoi.
Will this half of football be closer and more keenly-fought? It's doubtful - Joe Hart didn't even get his gloves dirty in the first period - but you never know.
Bad news for Vietnam - Raheem Sterling and David Silva are still on the park. Willy Caballero is on for Hart, the latter presumably going off with boredom.
We'll bring you regular updates of what happens.

Some more of the transfers you wish had not happened.
Nathan: Massimo Taibi for Man Utd. Hugely talented keeper we signed for 4.5m, conceded five at Chelsea and THAT goal at Southampton (where the ball bobbled through his legs as he bent down to stop a shot).
Dan Rozzell: David James to Bristol City after 2010 World Cup lost 3-0 on debut and couldn't stop conceding goals and on big wages too.
Charles Tee: Luis Nani for me as a#mufc man, 41 goals, 52 assists in six years. Rubbish for £25m (2007) signing. Never quite became the next Cristiano Ronaldo.
Time to learn to drive
Formula 1
Max Verstappen will, after finishing fourth in the Hungarian Grand Prix ahead of some of the best drivers in the world, set his sights on passing his driving test.
The 17-year-old Toro Rosso driver is not yet old enough to take to the roads unattended in his native Belgium.
He turns 18 in September and will now use the four-week summer break from F1 to brush up on his road skills ahead of his driving test.
"I'm doing my lessons in the summer break and then will take my test around my birthday in September," said Verstappen.
Half time in Vietnam
Vietnam 0-4 Manchester City
The home fans may be watching Vietnam getting thrashed, but they are enjoying the experience if this tweet from Manchester City is anything to go by.
Vietnam 0-4 Man City
Half-time
If I said there was a gulf in class here it would be an understatement on a par with Sir Alex Ferguson likes to chew gum a little.
It's no contest here. City have dominated, given all the time and space in the world to knock the ball around and create openings.
They've scored four times - including a brace for Sterling - but could have had double that. Training session stuff towards the end of the half.
Better late than never
Golf
Australian golfer Jason Day says he is "over the moon" after winning the Canadian Open - a week after missing out at The Open.
Day - who failed with a crucial late putt to miss out on a play-off at St Andrews - won by a shot in Canada, edging out American Bubba Watson.
The Australian world number four said: "It's just a really good feeling because whenever you win an Open championship of any country you're doing something good.
"For it come after what happened last week, I'm just over the moon right now."

BBC Sport's Ian Cheeseman:
Full-time: Inter Milan 0-3 Real Madrid
Football
Jese, Raphael Varane and James Rodriguez give Real Madrid a relatively easy victory in China.
Vietnam 0-4 Man City
Pre-season friendly
Hang on, a minute, the fourth goal seems to have sparked Vietnam into life.
By that I mean Joe Hart just got a touch of the ball, the big man saving a shot. The crowd go wild and little wonder - they've not exactly had much to cheer about so far.
But normal service is soon resumed as City pour forward again, Silva letting fly from distance but his shot just clearing the bar.
Rogers fit after dizzy spells
Cricket
Australia batsman Chris Rogers is fit to play in the third Ashes Test after recovering from dizzy spells, according to team-mate Mitchell Starc.
Rogers, 37, retired hurt on 49 in the second innings of the Lord's Test, saying he could see the stands move. He was hit on the helmet by a James Anderson bouncer.
But he underwent a full net session on Monday, facing balls from pace-trio Starc, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood.
Starc admitted he did not give him any short-pitched deliveries, but added: "He seems to have come through pretty well. All reports are he is good to go."
Goal: Inter Milan 0-3 Real Madrid
Rodriguez (90 mins)
We just said that James Rodriguez had gone close with a free-kick, well the Colombia international has just scored a sensational goal with his second free-kick attempt.
He curls his shot into the top corner, leaving a despairing Samir Handanovic no chance.
Close: Inter Milan 0-2 Real Madrid
Football
James Rodriguez curls a free-kick around the wall and forces Inter Milan keeper Samir Handanovic into another diving save.
Just five minutes left in Guangzhou.
GOAL: Vietnam 0-4 Man City
Sterling (30 mins)
Yep, Sterling is definitely fit. He's just scored again.
It's a great goal too,. Sterling starts a move, then latches on to a beautiful backheel by Iheanacho to finish it, shooting calmly past the keeper. This is easy peasy.
Vietnam 0-3 Man City
Pre-season friendly
A worrying moment as Raheem Sterling collapses to the floor after being caught from behind.
After a couple of minutes of treatment, he gets up a little gingerly - then goes through a series of stretching exercises, the type of which you'd see at your local aerobics class.
It works though. He returns to the pitch and Manuel Pellegrini breathes a big sigh of relief.
Women's Ashes - 3rd ODI
WICKET
Oh dear. England are not doing themselves any favours early on. Taylor plays across the line and is comprehensively bowled by Perry, the ball hitting middle stump fairly high up. That's 10-2 with barely 20 minutes gone. England chasing 242 to win. Live commentary and text updates here.
Vietnam 0-3 Man City
Pre-season friendly
Vietnam are ranked 143rd in the Fifa standings, which basically - at the risk of causing a diplomatic incident - means they're not the best.
It looks like that too as City score twice in the space of two minutes to essentially end the game as a contest.
Sterling's strike was a nice curling effort from the left edge of the penalty area. Then, with the Vietnamese defence appearing to operate a strict no-tackling policy, Silva headed against the crossbar before tapping in the rebound from his own effort.
Oh dear, this could be a rout. Actually, take the word 'could' out of that. It will be a rout.
Inter Milan 0-2 Real Madrid
Football
Another water break in China with 13 minutes left.
There have been a raft of changes for both sides with James Rodriguez coming on for Real Madrid,
Since Madrid's second goal the game has petered out somewhat.
GOAL: Vietnam 0-3 Man City
Silva (21 mins)
And now David Silva gets in on the act. This could be a rout.
One in, one out at Watford
Football
A busy day at Watford. One player in, and one player out.
GOAL: Vietnam 0-2 Man City
Sterling (19 mins)
Raheem Sterling makes it 2-0 to City.
Brit special
Golf
Danny Willett won his third European Tour title, taking a one-shot victory over fellow Englishman Matt Fitzpatrick at the European Masters on Sunday.
In fact it was an all-English top three as Tyrrell Hatton finished two shots behind Willett on 15 under.
Women's Ashes - 3rd ODI
WICKET
Disastrous start for England after lunch, Charlotte Edwards edges the fourth ball of the match to the wicketkeeper to give Ellyse Perry an early wicket. Not a run on the board. Nervy stuff with England chasing 242 to win. Live commentary and text updates available here.
GOAL: Vietnam 0-1 Man City
Kolarov (11 mins)
First goal of the game and it's gone to the Blues.
Jesus Navas is taken out 30 yards from goal. Aleksandar Kolarov blasts the free kick around a rather flimsy looking Vietnamese wall and past rooted keeper Vinh Loi.
City deserve it, they've had the better of the early stages.

How England could do with a batting performance like that against Australia, when the third Ashes test begins on Wednesday.

You have high hopes that your latest signing is going to become a legend. Then soon after you can't wait for them to leave. Here are some more of your disappointing transfers.
Dave Miller: As a Southampton fan, it has to be Dani Osvaldo. Club-record fee, plenty of fanfare, and a seemingly classy player. In the end, aside from that beauty he scored against Man City, he never looked like he was going to rival Lambert for a spot in the starting XI. Then he threw all of his toys out of the pram when he hit Fonte. Complete waste of money.
Cameron Westwood: Without doubt, Michael Owen. Worst signing in the history of NUFC. Yes, even worse than Xisco.
Nathan Critchlow: Jo at Man City. Signed for a reported £19 million. Twenty-one league games. One goal. Scored more on loan than he did for us. Amazed to see him turning out for Brazil. Must be his identical twin.
Vietnam 0-0 Man City

Vietnam v Man City
Pre-season friendly
Guess what? It's still not started,
The players and the officials appear to have been given a bouquet of flowers - possibly rhododendrons, I'm not sure, my mother would know - and are now standing there holding them, looking slightly sheepish.
Now they're lining up around the centre circle. The game was supposed to start at 14:00 BST. 13 minutes later and no sign of a game of football breaking out any time soon.

'Greene can bounce back'
Athletics
Welsh Athletics national coach Scott Simpson insists Dai Greene still has a future despite another injury-affected season.
Greene, world 400m hurdles champion in 2011, has failed to get the qualifying time for this year's World Championship.
Simpson said: "His mentality and resilience are some of his greatest strengths. He's in a good place with good people around him and, if he can make some good decisions over the next 12 months, then we'll hopefully see him at another Olympics."

We've all seen our clubs make what appears to be a dream signing, only for them to be a complete disaster. Today we recognise those transfers that have gone wrong. Horribly wrong.
Daniel Aspel: Mitroglou to Fulham, surely? £12m for an injured guy who played three games, never scored, we got relegated, he went back on loan to his original club and scored a winner against Atletico Madrid. Total farce.
Chris Kelly: Pascal Cygan. At first looked like a rock solid addition to our defence, was actually the worst defender I've ever seen in an Arsenal shirt.
Nathan Critchlow: Roque Santa Cruz at City. Four years, 20 appearances, three goals. Always injured or farmed out on loan to gain fitness. After Blackburn form he was hugely underwhelming.

Given what he achieved over the weekend, it is about time we turned the spotlight on Chris Froome.
The 2013 champion beat Colombia's Nairo Quintana to the yellow jersey by 72 seconds with Spain's Alejandro Valverde third.
At times Froome was so dominant, it caused some to question whether the 30-year-old's performances were being enhanced by doping. He was subjected to abuse from spectators, claimed he had urine thrown at him on stage 14 and appeared to have twice been spat at in the last two stages before Paris.
But it didn't stop him from powering to victory and Froome's victory means a Briton - and Team Sky - have now won three of the last four of cycling's showpiece races.

One in at United then, but could there be one out too soon. And not just any 'one', but the record signing.
Angel Di Maria's proposed move to Paris St-Germain is "close", according to the French club's coach Laurent Blanc.
The Argentina midfielder has not joined United on their pre-season tour of America, and manager Louis van Gaal has said he "does not know why".
"There is a good possibility he could sign but there is nothing official," said Blanc. "We have to have patience a little longer. The outcome is very close."

De Gea to Madrid a "threat"
Football
Speaking about the keeper situation, United boss Louis van Gaal said: "We have to prepare our season with the threat that David De Gea is going to Real Madrid.
"Sergio Romero can fulfil that because we have to handle it very quickly if it happens."
If De Gea stays, Van Gaal said Romero could compete for a first-team place.
"You need always competition. When I see that a player is better than the player in the line-up he shall play the next match."
United in safe hands
Football
With apologies to a Mr C Froome, let's start not with cycling but with football because there is a new face at Old Trafford this morning.
Man United have snapped up Argentina goalkeeper Sergio Romero, mainly - it seems - as a result of the uncertainty over the future of David De Gea.
Romero, who signs a three-year deal, played in the 2014 World Cup final and will replace Spaniard Victor Valdes, who has been told he can leave.
De Gea is into his final year of his contract and is wanted by Real Madrid.

The Sun
The Sun's 'Gaalactico' splash says it all, really - Louis van Gaal's in for a mega-bucks signing. Turning to F1, the tabloid reports that Lewis Hamilton has fired back against accusations that he choked at yesterday's Hungarian Grand Prix.

The Mirror
Well I never, some football at last.
The Mirror has two leads on its back page, focusing on the futures of both England boss Roy Hodgson and Chelsea talisman John Terry.
Hodgson is reportedly perturbed by the lack of clarity over his time in the hot seat beyond Euro 2016 and wants talks over his contract. Meanwhile, Terry has made it clear he wants two more years at Chelsea and that leaving for another club - like former team-mate Petr Cech (to Arsenal) - will never be an option.
It also reports Louis van Gaal saying that despite a strong 2014-15, Ashley Young "is not a Neymar". What a confidence boost for the lad eh?

Well blow me, if it isn't that man Chris Froome again. Hogging the limelight a bit today isn't he? Mind you, he has just become a two-time Tour de France winner so fair enough I suppose. Froome, says The Guardian, has now joined the Tour legends.

The Times
Team Sky boss Dave Brailsford has gone on the offensive following his charge's victory at the Tour de France. The Times reports that he has accused Chris Froome's critics of being in a fantasy world and that they are "looking for the Loch Ness monster" by searching for evidence of doping.
Morning all
Starter for ten. Who's this?
Well, it's this chap of course.
Chris Froome, who has spent the last two weeks being heckled, spat at and dodging urine, all to win a cuddly toy.
Well done that man.
We'll have more on him shortly, plus the rest of the day's sporting news - including Real Madrid v Inter at 13:00 BST (with Gareth Bale likely to be involved) and a new face at Man United.
