@andybrassell.bsky.socialReposted by @danwighton.bsky.socialThis week's @sport.theguardian.com Bundesliga column on what is a mountain to climb at Borussia Mönchengladbach for new coach Alexander Blessin, as evidenced by his debut derby defeat at Köln yesterday www.theguardian.com/football/202...
@mattbevan.bsky.socialReposted by @danwighton.bsky.socialMy cousin just snapped this. Joey Johns is in a similar state to all Knights fans right now (considering the merits of a tactical stress spew)
@danwighton.bsky.socialSpoke to Sabastian Sawe, the man who broke the marathon two-hour mark, in Berlin about records, doping and Tigst Assefa’s courage. And yep, he’s planning to run faster. www.france24.com/en/live-news...
@danwighton.bsky.socialJust spoke to Tigst Assefa's manager on the phone who confirmed she ran the last 2 kilometres of the Berlin Marathon yesterday without an Achilles after a tear. Madness. And still the third best time ever. Unbelievable. She's doing well after surgery. www.rfi.fr/en/sports/20...
@danwighton.bsky.social
@danwighton.bsky.socialwww.rfi.fr/en/sports/20... Incredible courage from Tigst Assefa, who ran the last few kilometres with an Achilles injury -- she missed the medal ceremony in hospital.
@danwighton.bsky.social'The New One'. Klopp played the hits as his Germany reign begins. My preview. www.france24.com/en/live-news...
@andybrassell.bsky.socialReposted by @danwighton.bsky.socialThis week's @sport.theguardian.com Bundesliga column on how Borussia Dortmund toughened up to go top in the early season table www.theguardian.com/football/202...
@danwighton.bsky.socialsports.yahoo.com/articles/nku... Spoke to Christopher Nkunku in Leipzig about his time at Chelsea and his return to the club.
@danwighton.bsky.socialIn a press conference which went more than 90 minutes, new Germany coach Jurgen Klopp spoke about the importance of the side off the pitch. My summary. www.france24.com/en/live-news...
@danwighton.bsky.socialuk.sports.yahoo.com/news/us-surv... Spain went so close to a major boilover, but the US were too good. My report from the semis in Berlin.
@danwighton.bsky.socialIt's that time of the year again when we think Dortmund look good and talk ourselves into it. It won't last long.

@danwighton.bsky.socialQuite like Spurs to identify the true culprit so swiftly.
@danwighton.bsky.socialwww.france24.com/en/live-news... Elversberg, a village with a population of just 13,000 and no train station, became the smallest in German league history to host a top-flight side this season. On Sunday, Bayern Munich come to town. My feature.
@danwighton.bsky.socialSpoke to Bastian Schweinsteiger about Bayern's Champions League hopes. My preview. www.france24.com/en/live-news...
@danwighton.bsky.sociali can count i swear
@danwighton.bsky.socialI was under the impression United have done that pretty well for over a decade.
@danwighton.bsky.socialAlmost a stunning boilover here in Berlin. With Italy leading for much of the second half, almost did something which hasn’t been done since 2006. More than a few boos for the Americans at fulltime too. Caitlin Clark with 1/10 shooting.
@danwighton.bsky.socialAccording to FIBA, the 2.20-metre tall Ziyu Zhang is the tallest woman to play at a major tournament ever. Can see why.
@danwighton.bsky.socialwww.france24.com/en/live-news... Nkunku, Diaby, Füllkrug. What's old is new again in the Bundesliga. My feature.
