It pains me that a figure like Lamine had to go through that. The image Spain has projected is not the one I know. It's a disgrace. Lamine didn't deserve what he went through.

AC Milan's concern over Adrien Rabiot's knee issue was alleviated when it was confirmed that the injury was less serious than initially feared, allowing him to focus on recovery.

Yes, he will do the same thing that he does on the pitch, he shows it in training every day. If they know how to pray? They better! We have great players too who we can perhaps spread out and not play 1 vs 1 because he is so decisive. We have the tool to try and counteract him.

Left-footed centre-backs are a rarer breed, and Raux-Yao is a colossus of a defender now entering his prime at the age of 26. Having established himself as the most dominant aerial force in Austrian football, the centre-back has caught attention for his passing ability, too.

Mohamed Amoura is one of the quickest players in the Bundesliga: impressive, given the transitional nature of the league. The Algerian is a cheat code against a high line: at 35km/h, there's no catching him in a foot race.

There is perhaps no nation on earth whose football is as paranoid as that of Tunisia, and with so little reason. They qualified for a third successive World Cup with ease and forced a draw in a friendly against Brazil in November, yet their football is infected with fear. To watch them play is to experience a dystopian world in which imagination has been outlawed.

At last, Morocco have arrived at the tournament they are hosting. For four games they had played scratchy, crabbed football. Finally, in a spiky, ill-tempered quarter-final, there was something more like the Morocco that reached the semi-final of the World Cup just over three years ago. If the game wasn't fluent, that was largely Cameroon's doing as they spoiled and sought treatment.

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

The 22-year-old has been one of the breakout stars in German football this season, scoring 12 goals in 17 games for second-tier high-fliers Elversberg before Christmas. That form earned him a 6.9m move to his hometown club Eintracht in late December, crowning a remarkable rise from the lower leagues to the top of the German game. Just a year ago, Ebnoutalib was playing in the fourth tier for FC Giessen, after a major setback in Italy had dashed his hopes of a professional career.

The 2004 champions were playing against 10 men for more than 90 minutes of a match that went to extra time in Casablanca, after Mali's Woyo Coulibaly was sent off early on. Tunisia, who have qualified for the 2026 World Cup, went ahead in the 88th minute, only to concede a penalty in the sixth minute of added time and spurn a lead in the shootout that followed.
