'We're all on one page' Ten Hag insists job is safe after latest United debacle

United were in disarray from Brennan Johnson's third-minute opener, before Bruno Fernandes was sent off later in the first half. Dejan Kulesevksi and Dominic Solanke also scored for the visitors after the break.

This was the second 3-0 home league defeat in a row, following the reverse to Liverpool at the start of the month. United are in 12th place with seven points from six games, with a goal difference of -3. Ten Hag was asked if the executive, who are led by Sir Jim Ratcliffe, may decide a change of manager is needed.

Ainslie revels in underdog role as Ineos Britannia plot fightback

Twenty-four hours can be a long time on the water. When the sea state off Barcelona changed on Tuesday, the balance of the 37th America's Cup shifted with it. All of a sudden, Ineos Britannia, who were trailing Emirates Team New Zealand 4-0 in the best-of-13 series, were swept back into contention. The America's Cup is a competition for sailboat builders as well as sailors, and the subtle design differences between the two AC75 yachts gave the British team an advantage in the heavier weather. Soon enough, they had pulled the score back to 4-2.
