Italy Late Eder goal sends through to last 16

Euro 2016

Eder ended a great run by firing home in the 88th minute to move Italy clear at the top of Group E with six points from two matches.

Italy moved into the knockout stages of Euro 2016 after Eder scored two minutes from fulltime to secure a 1-0 win over Sweden in Toulouse on Friday.

Eder ended a great run by firing home in the 88th minute to move Italy clear at the top of Group E on six points after two matches following their 2-0 victory over Belgium in their opening encounter.

The result left Sweden in an uncomfortable position with one point after two games ahead of their final group clash against Belgium next week.

Sweden were well organised at the back but toothless in attack, with their danger man Zlatan Ibrahimovic looking a shadow of his brilliant best and hardly creating a chance.

Italy, who surprised many with their superb performance against a highly-fancied Belgium side, relied on their trademark, tight defence but rarely threatened up front until Marco Parolo hit the crossbar with a header shortly before Eder netted the winner.

Belgium await friendly invasion by Ireland

Euro 2016

Having, in the words of their coach Marc Wilmots, “lost a battle but not the war” Belgium present arms again for Saturday’s encounter with Ireland on what they consider to be home territory of Bordeaux.

The Red Devils have set up camp for the Euro 2016 campaign just outside the city, using the training headquarters of Girondins Bordeaux, the club for whom Wilmots once played.

He has come under unfriendly fire there following the 2-0 defeat by Italy in the opening group match but insisted this week there would be no change of an attacking philosophy based around the talents of players such as Eden Hazard, Kevin de Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku.

Unfortunately, the latter pair were badly out of sorts against the Italians, while defensive fallibility was evident, too, in the absence from the tournament of the injured Vincent Kompany and Nic Lombaerts.

De Bruyne and Hazard were both given extra time off this week after suffering minor knocks but are expected to be fit. Some Belgian critics would prefer to see their roles reversed, however, with Hazard playing as the number 10 behind the main striker and De Bruyne out wide.

For however much or little it counts, Belgium have history on their side in not having lost to the Irish for 50 years, which includes beating them by a single goal in the playoffs to win a place at the 1998 World Cup in France.

That gave them a game against Mexico in Bordeaux in which they wilted to a draw in heat that has hardly been a problem at this tournament.

If the Belgians are regarding this as a home fixture, however, they will be shaken by the strength in numbers of the Irish.

Green “army” or not, Ireland’s traditionally friendly followers are more likely to take on the opposition in a sing-song than a fight.

They have already been named the best supporters by one French social media site and tear gas should not be required.

After their team lost every game at Euro 2012 and failed to qualify for the last World Cup, the mood ahead of a difficult Group E programme was guarded, but in Paris on Monday only an own goal prevented victory in a 1-1 draw with Sweden. Manager Martin O’Neill said he was delighted with the performance.

Wideman Jon Walters, with an Achilles problem, is his main injury concern as the Irish seek a first victory at a major tournament since 2002.

Queen’s 2016: Andy Murray steers into quarters on the whole Briton conflict

Andy Murray beat kindred Briton Aljaz Bedene in straight sets and faces another comrade Kyle Edmund next.

Andy Murray continued track to assert a record fifth title at Queen's Club by beating kindred Briton Aljaz Bedene 6-3, 6-4 to achieve the quarterfinals on Thursday.

American John Isner let go 43 pros and held 10 match indicates yet fizzled overcome Gilles Muller of Luxembourg as he drooped to a 3-6, 7-6 (16), 7-6 (7) rout.

Murray confronted a break point in the opening amusement however then broke to lead 5-3 and served out the set. Murray kept up the weight in the second set, and regardless of neglecting to change over four break focuses to lead 1-0 and dropping his own particular serve subsequent to breaking for 2-1, a further break for 4-3 demonstrated definitive.

"I thought it was alright," said Murray of the match. "It was significantly more mobilizes than the principal match, so no doubt, it was entirely diverse. I have never played against him. I have not seen him play loads on grass, either. That is never simple."

Murray's next adversary will be another kinsman, Kyle Edmund, who got a walkover when Frenchman Paul-Henri Mathieu pulled back with a wrist harm.

Isner appeared to be set for triumph against Muller, holding six match focuses in the second set sudden death round before Muller leveled the match on his fifth set point. In the last set, the American held off five break focuses as the set moved to another sudden death round, however then neglected to gain by a further four match focuses.

The second-set sudden death round highlighted the longest singles primary draw sudden death round at Queen's Club subsequent to Goran Ivanisevic beat Greg Rusedski 4-6, 6-4, 7-6 (18) in the 1997 elimination rounds, and Muller is the principal player to win an ATP Tour match in the wake of sparing 10 match focuses following Rainer Schuettler beat Andreas Seppi in Kitzbuehel in 2004.

Third seeded Canadian Milos Raonic additionally progressed by vanquishing Czech Jiri Vesely 7-5, 7 (6), and Australian Bernard Tomic overcame Fernado Verdasco of Spain 6-7 (2), 6-4, 6-4. The match between 6th seeded Spaniard Roberto Bautista Agut and American Donald Young was suspended overnight because of downpour with Bautista Agut driving 6-4.

Caroline Wozniacki slip and slide out of Birmingham, Petra Kvitova

Petra Kvitova and Caroline Wozniacki both lost their second round games in the WTA tournament.

Petra Kvitova, the two-time Wimbledon champion who has been hoping to build her grass court momentum for a third tilt at the oldest Grand Slam title, instead became the latest big name to lose at the rain-hit Birmingham WTA tournament on Thursday.

Moving gingerly on the lush surface, Kvitova subsided to a 6-4 4-6 6-3 second round loss to Jelena Ostapenko, the world number 38. Erasing a 0-2 deficit in the decider visibly encouraged the 19-year-old Latvian, who pressed harder, hit flatter, and often played the big points better.

“It was difficult to put the pressure on her,” said Kvitova, who played with her right thigh strapped.

“When she dropped serve she became more dangerous. And I wasn’t moving very well today. At the beginning (of the grass court season) it is really difficult for the body. I don’t know that I did anything wrong. But at least I played two matches here, and I hope to get more at Eastbourne (next week).”

Neither player was helped by a slightly late start and a 40-minute interruption in the middle of the match, both caused by incessant showers which have blighted the tournament for four days.

Perhaps unsurprisingly it was the younger player who proved more resilient in dealing with it all.
The most crucial moments came immediately after Kvitova had broken serve to level at a set all, and then surged into a 2-0 lead in the decider.

She followed it with a poor game, failing to land her first serve frequently enough and then playing an even more disappointingly in the seventh game, delivering a double fault and dropping her serve to love.

She earned a break back point in the following game but was denied by a brilliant forehand from Ostapenko and after that the match ended swiftly.

“I’d beaten her before,” said Ostapenko, referring to a victory on hard courts in Doha in the first week of the year.

“So I thought I could do it again.”

She next plays Madison Keys, the top 20 American for a place in the semi-finals. Kvitova was followed to the exit door by Caroline Wozniacki, the former world number one, was who beaten 6-4 6-7 (5/7) 6-2 by Yanina Wickmayer, ranked down at 49 but a former finalist in Birmingham.

Wozniacki has also been struggling with injuries in recent weeks, and had moments when she appeared concerned not to aggravate them in a match that was interrupted three times by the weather.
Two other seeds, Angelique Kerber, the Australian Open champion, and Carla Suarez Navarro were also struggling when rain ended play early for the fourth day in a row.

Kvitova’s and Wozniacki’s exits followed those on earlier days of Agnieszka Radwanska, the top seed, of Belinda Bencic, the youngest world top 10 player, and Karolina Pliskova, the eighth-seeded Czech who won the title on the Nottingham grass last week.

Aamir Khan talks about Salman Khan, movie of Dangal and Sultan

Aamir Khan spoke about his fellow actor Salman Khan's body and fitness levels, with whom he has often been compared.

There is much talk about Aamir Khan’s fitness regime for his two looks in the upcoming film Dangal. The actor plays the role of wrestler Mahavir Singh Phogat in the biopic, and had to first gain weight and then lose it all to portray the different stages of Phogat’s life.

During a media interaction on the sets of Dangal in Ludhiana, Aamir spoke about his fellow actor Salman Khan’s body and fitness levels, with whom he has often been compared.

“I’ve always been a fan of Salman as an actor, and of his body as well. He has had a lean, muscular and cut-up body from the very beginning of his career. So, I’ve always been a fan of his body, and his fitness.

I don’t think my body is as good as his. For me, he is the ideal, and I try to come close to him,” said the PK actor.
When asked about Sultan, yet another wrestling film that’s due to release this Eid, Aamir said he was eagerly waiting to watch it as well, and the two films are very different.

He went on to draw comparisons between the two films, as well as differences. For one, we know we’re seeing Salman in a langot in Sultan, will the audiences be treated to a similar avatar from Aamir?

Pakistan Cricket Board hits back at Danish Kaneria over claims he was discriminated because he is a Hindu

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has hit back at spinner Danish Kaneria over his claim that he was not helped by the board to get a ban on his playing lifted because he is a Hindu. Kaneria, who is one of the most successful spinners in Pakistan history, was banned for life in 2012 by the England and Wales Cricket Board over his alleged role in spot-fixing in county cricket. The leg-spinner is yet to admit his guilt and has constantly proclaimed his innocence to the media and fans.

"We are very disappointed at Kaneria's statement. Because we didn't ban him he was banned by the England and Wales Cricket Board in the UK. And he was given all opportunity to appeal against the life ban. Being a member of the ICC the PCB is obliged to implement the decision of the ECB as well," said PCB'S media director Amjad Hussain Bhatti, as quoted by India today.

"We strongly condemn the anti-PCB statement. If he was discriminated against at any time because of his religion he would not have even played one match for Pakistan. Kaneria must not forget that he played 61 tests and 18 One Day Internationals for the country as a Hindu and things changed only after he was banned."

The 35-year-old was a regular in the Pakistan side for almost 10 years during which he took 261 wickets in 61 test matches and 15 wickets in 18 ODIs. Kaneria is only the second Hindu to represent Pakistan with his last appearance for the national team coming in 2010 when Pakistan toured England.

Jeff Goldblum on Independence Day: Resurgence – 'I think it moves the ball, it raises the bar'

Having waited two decades for a sequel to Roland Emmerich's Independence Day, fans now only have a week to wait until Resurgence is finally released in cinemas. It turns out that sci-fi buffs aren't the only ones chomping at the bit to see the film on the big screen.

Talking in an interview with Cinema Blend that was conducted late last year, star of both the original and the new instalment Jeff Goldblum explained how he was looking forward to watching the film with an audience because as "you can imagine, there's much spectacle" to be seen.

"You've asked the right person... because I do like to watch movies," he explained to the publication.

"I'm thinking of several scenes. There's more spectacle than I have seen in any... I think it moves the ball, it raises the bar, whatever metaphor I'm stupidly trying to think of, ahead. So it's going to be something that, even though you think you have seen everything before, you'll go, 'I never... That's bigger, and more than I thought!' So some of that. And I'll enjoy that."

It's not all about the action sequences and dazzling special effects – of which there seems to be an abundance – however, it's got some real heart too, according to Goldblum. "Roland is a person of soulful wisdom and humanity. Once again, he's very interested and passionate about creating characters that, for him, tell a story of loveliness and love, of comradeship and some very touching and sweet and funny things.

"He's got a very keen sense of humour. So I'm hoping that those moments will be delightful in those ways. And I can imagine, you know, watching it with the audience," he concluded, mimicking himself eating a tub of popcorn as he did so.

Independence Day: Resurgence takes place 20 years on from the 1996 original, which saw Goldblum and Will Smith teaming up to save the world from an alien invasion. This time, the extraterrestrials are back for some well-prepared revenge. While Goldblum reprises his role from the first film, sadly Smith isn't back. However, Bill Pullman does return as President Whitmore and sci-fi lovers will find a new worthy hero in the form of Hunger Games star Liam Hemsworth. It will reach UK cinemas on 23 June and US big screens the following day.

Barcelona target Mauricio Lemos flattered to understand that Real Madrid have joined race to sign him

UD Las Palmas centre-back Mauricio Lemos has welcome news that he's set to become the topic of a heavyweight summer transfer battle between metropolis and Real Madrid. The Uruguayan actress says he's flattered at the interest from the La Liga giants, however further he doesn't wish to assume an excessive amount of relating to the move till things ar nearer to sign-off.

The twenty year-old defender touched to UD Las Palmas on loan from Rubin urban center throughout the January transfer window, before the Canary Islanders activated a clause to secure his services on a permanent basis months later.

However his future at Las Palmas has been the topic of scrutiny since last month, once native publication Canarias7 disclosed metropolis had launched a bid price €4m ($5.7m) and add-ons to lure the defender to the Nou Camp.

Later, each the club's head, Toni Cruz, and president, Miguel Angel Ramirez, confirmed the news, however further that that they had turned down the metropolis bid because it was too removed from their own valuation of the player. Lemos's unleash clause is presently set at €30m.

Reports in metropolis have since claimed that Luis Enrique's aspect ar expected to extend their supply, however earlier on each Marca and AS rumored that they will face competition from Real Madrid to sign the player.

X-Men actor Evan Peters needs a Deadpool and Quicksilver crossover picture show

X-Men Apocalypse won't have earned  nice reviews from critics of the picture or met expectations at the box-office, however Evan Peters's Quicksilver was clearly a success among the audience.

The 29-year-old actor, WHO asterisked because the humorous  and quick mutant in each Apocalypse and Days Of Future Past might have some plans for his character, as he expressed his thoughts on a Quicksilver solo.

In associate interview with the Wrap, Peters same he would like to feature in an exceedingly Quicksilver standalone picture. However, the actor believes it might be even a lot of fun to team with associate equally comic character from Marvel Comics.

"I would really like to ascertain a Deadpool/Quicksilver picture, i feel that may be extremely fun," he disclosed.

While the concept appeared attention-grabbing, Peters thinks it may be associate arduous effort considering the resources and time needed to shoot the Quicksilver sequence within the picture. A minute-long featurette showing Quicksilver, that was discharged when Apocalypse hit theatres, took a month's labour and is proof enough of the actor's argument.

"Oh my god, i do not grasp. it might take 3 years to shoot, would not it?" same the actor WHO reprised his role as Peter Maximoff/ Quicksilver within the picture.

Nevertheless, Peters appeared interested, "Yeah i do not grasp, i might like to try this."

While the twentieth Century Fox studio hasn't created any announcement concerning the crossover, it might so be attention-grabbing for fans to ascertain Ryan Reynolds' Deadpool team with Quicksilver to pack a punch amid humorous  comebacks and snappy dialogues.

Meanwhile, Deadpool two is about to feature Cable, WHO may be a time-travelling information science soul, in keeping with a Screen Rant report. will the time-travelling facet solve the 2 characters' – Deadpool and Quicksilver – variedly-timed storylines?

Fans' best bet is to attend for the studio's more thoughts on the crossover.

Shrek 5: Should Dream Works continue the franchise or let 'happily ever after' be?

On 15 June there was an announcement that I didn't think, or rather had hoped, I would ever hear again: DreamWorks Animation are planning to release a fifth Shrek movie. Yet, here we are, and not only have the studio confirmed another movie is on the way, but they also want to make more follow-up films after it. Safe to say, I'm not too keen on the idea.

I say this not because I dislike the Shrek franchise. Far from it. When I was younger, the first two instalments were up there with my favourite films and I watched them tirelessly. I'm also not opposed to sequels in general – I actually thought Shrek 2 trumped the first film. But let's face it, Shrek The Third and Shrek Forever After were not as inspired in plot as they were in their titles.

When it was released in 2001, Shrek was a novel idea, mixing fairy tales together to create a unique story about, on the surface at least, the ogre getting the girl. If you really want to go into it though, it was pretty deep, with Shrek not only having to accept who he is and learning to open up to the idea of friends and romance, but also breaking free from expectations. Princess Fiona does the same at the end when she chooses to be with Shrek rather than dream of Prince Charming, remaining an ogre herself as well.

The second film was a little more light-hearted, presenting themes such as meeting your in-laws for the first time and maintaining that spark once the 'happily ever after' buzz fades away. But where it ever-so-slightly lacked in message, it made sure it made up for it with heaps of action and fun – and a wonderfully ingenious villain in the Fairy Godmother.

But it wasn't until Shrek The Third was released in 2007 that I truly appreciated how good the previous two were. The third instalment was silly and solely aimed at children, unlike the earlier ones that were full of jokes anyone of any age were bound to appreciate. It felt a little stale, a little too familiar and a little too overblown and garish. Having an excitable Justin Timberlake voice a young King Arthur is just one way to prove that this movie was out to irritate.

One scene from the forgettable film stands out in my memory – a chorus of frogs dramatically singing Live And Let Die – but even that wasn't enough to keep me entertained for long. It was also the first movie in the series not to have an out-and-out villain and that seemed to be a mistake.

Luckily, Shrek Forever After did have a villain, Rumpelstiltskin, making the film a slight improvement on #3. But still it remained forgettable, missing the wit and charm that came way before it.

Consistency in both style and quality have seemed to be a real issue with the Shrek films, arguably down to the fact that the directors haven't stayed the same throughout. Andrew Adamson co-helmed both the first and the second but departed before Shrek The Third was made, and his presence is sorely missed in the films that followed. It's easy to see why this could be the reason for the decline, given that Kung Fu Panda, which has managed to maintain its 'awesomeness' throughout the whole trilogy, has had Jennifer Yuh Nelson in charge of every instalment.

From a financial point of view, it's easy to see why DreamWorks are keen to revisit the grumpy green hero voiced by Mike Myers. Together, the films have made over $3bn worldwide at the box-office and there's no denying that bums will be in seats given the nostalgia surrounding the characters. If mine just so happens to be in one however, we hope they've upped their story game – and managed to conjure up a really dastardly villain too.

Australia vs South Africa, Tri-Series, 3rd ODI: Where to watch live, prediction, betting odds, possible XI and live streaming info

Australia take on South Africa in the third match of the Tri-Nation series at Providence Stadium, Guyana, on 7 June (Tuesday).

Match starts at 6pm BST/10.30pm IST. Live coverage of the game is available on Sky Sports 3 and Sky Sports 3 HD in the UK.

Overview

Australia and South Africa have been two of the more competitive teams in the world since the late 1990s. The world champions come into this clash after thrashing hosts West Indies by six wickets on 4 June and it was not the seamers but the spinners who were the wreckers on the turning surface in Providence, Guyana.

Adam Zampa, Nathan Lyon and Glenn Maxwell took seven wickets with Lyon who was dropped from the World T20 squad in particular looking dangerous. Apart from the helpful pitch, the spinners maintained an impeccable line and length. Expect the trio to trouble the South African batsmen on Tuesday.

David Warner, who is coming off an excellent IPL season, again showed why he should be considered one of the best batsmen in the world, leading Australia's chase with an unbeaten 55-run knock. Usman Khawaja aside, the rest of the batsmen struggled to cope with the spin.

The Proteas were blown away by a Sunil Narine special spell in the first game, with the wily spinner taking his career-best figures of 6/27. Though they lost that game, South Africa come into this clash knowing that they have one of the better batting attacks in the world and any line-up which features Quinton de Kock, Hashim Amla and AB de Villiers will be feared irrespective of the conditions.

The spinners, Imran Tahir and Aaron Phangiso, did their bit, but they were eventually limited by lack of runs on the board. J P Duminy might have more of a role to play considering that the three-spinner rule is proving to be a success on the turning tracks in Guyana.

Jamie Vardy boards plane for Euro 2016 as his club future hangs in the balance

Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy has boarded a plane for France ahead of Euro 2016. The 29-year-old striker finds himself in the midst of a transfer tussle between Liverpool, Arsenal and the Foxes.

Arsenal met Vardy's £29m release clause on Friday (3 June) and was thought to be set for a big-money move to the Emirates.

However, Liverpool are also interested in his services, while Leicester are apparently willing to offer him a new contract in order to retain their star striker.It has been widely reported that the Arsenal target would need to decide his future before heading to France with the rest of the England squad, with the pacey forward unlikely to be allowed to leave the team to complete the formalities of a deal. But after flying out to the European Championships, Vardy's future will remain under a cloud.

The Mirror report that England boss Hodgson could have granted him special dispensation to make up his mind. Meanwhile, the Arsenal target is set to begin training with the Three Lions squad in Chantilly, France, on Tuesday (7 June).

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger was widely criticised last season for his lack of activity during the summer transfer window, when the Gunners failed to sign a senior outfield player. By contrast, the club have already concluded a deal for Swiss star Granit Xhaka, while Arsenal also remain eager to sign Vardy.

EU referendum: Remain campaign wants to barter away UK's freedom and democracy says Boris Johnson

The official Brexit campaign has put a pro-democracy argument at the front and centre of its campaign, with just over a fortnight to go before the EU referendum on 23 June. Boris Johnson, one of the main spokesmen for the Vote Leave group, warned that a Remain vote result would result in the UK bartering away its freedom and democracy to Brussels in a bid to secure economic gains via membership of the 28-nation-bloc.

"It is a myth and a delusion to think that we can somehow gain greater prosperity by bartering away our freedom and our democracy. In fact, we can see at every stage how the loss of democratic control is turning into an economic disaster," the top Conservative claimed on 6 June."There is nowhere else that is engaged in anything like this experiment, of trying to fuse countries into a giant political entity; and in its centralising tendencies the European project is going against the tide of events and history.

"The risks of remaining in this over-centralising, over-regulating job-destroying machine are becoming more and more obvious, which is why I believe we are winning the arguments today.

"It is time to take back control, and speak for freedom in Britain and around the whole of the EU."

Johnson made the pro-Leave address alongside Justice Secretary Michael Gove, German-born Labour MP Gisela Stuart and John Longworth, the former director-general of the British Chamber of Commerce. The Vote Leave campaigners spoke at a shampoo factory in the West Midlands market town of Stratford-upon-Avon.

British Airways could be sued over wages and recognition by Hong Kong union

A union representing the Hong Kong cabin crew of British Airways (BA) is threatening to sue the airline in the UK. The union said legal action will be taken if talks with BA scheduled this month, over pay rises and union recognition, fail to materialise.

The union which goes by the name, BA Hong Kong International Cabin Crew Association, revealed that majority of the airline's crew has not been given a pay rise since 1998. Carol Ng Man-yee, general secretary at the union, said they were serious about taking the airline to court for alleged discrimination. "We have already sought legal advice and there is a huge chance we will win. We are not afraid," she added.The union said BA's Hong Kong-based crew were being discriminated against crews of other countries such as those in the UK, Japan and India, where the crews were given pay rises over the years. Ng Man-yee said the union had pressed the airline over the issue several times and in 2015 it had even demanded a 7% pay rise, according to the South China Morning Post.

Ng Man-yee said in response the management had said that their packages were too good. "But their packages are good as well. Why are they getting raises?" she argued.

A British Airways spokesman said: "We have carried out research that indicates that our cabin crew in Hong Kong receive a generous package that is above the market rate. Our permanent members of crew received an increase in pay earlier this year and are also entitled to a number of flying allowances the value of which has been increased over the years."

BA has crew strength of 100 in Hong Kong, of which 50 are permanent staff and the remaining contract staff. While the permanent staff is being paid more than HK$30,000 (£2,683, €3405, $3,862) per month, including flying allowances, the contract employees are paid about HK$20,000 including allowances, of which HK$5,840 is the monthly basic salary.

HSBC reshuffles investment banking arm in a bid to cut costs and make business 'more agile'

HSBC is understood to be in the process of reorganising its banking operations worldwide, in a bid to cut costs and ensure the business is "more agile".

In June last year, the FTSE 100-listed lender unveiled plans to reduce the size of its investment banking division by a third and reduce its global workforce by approximately 25% in an attempt to boost profitability.

According to an internal memo seen by Reuters, the bank is expected to cut dozens of senior jobs in its investment banking division, although it did not specify how many jobs would be slashed as part of the reshuffle.

Robin Phillips and Matthew Westerman, the joint chiefs of HSBC's global banking, said the changes will include establishing new corporate, financials and multinationals banking divisions, which will be headed by Philippe Henry.

"Our new structure will deliver the best outcome for our clients by bringing our country, sector and product teams closer together – and improve returns for our shareholders by improving our profitability and generating efficiencies," said Westerman and Phillips.

"The environment around us is changing, and we must adapt to ensure that we use our competitive strengths."

Westerman, who started at HSBC last month after leaving Goldman Sachs in February following a 16-year spell at the US bank, is just one of the high-profile figures involved in the reshuffle, which saw 15 senior bankers being let go earlier this month.

Last week, the lender hired Andre Cronje, the former chief operating officer at UBS investment bank, to cover the same role within HSBC' Global Banking and Markets branch. Meanwhile, HSBC confirmed Patrick George has been promoted to head of global markets for EMEA, a role he will take over on 1 July.

George will replace Niall Cameron, who will be moving on to cover the newly created role of head of corporate and institutional digital.

In the first quarter, HSBC's Global Banking and Markets division saw pre-tax profit plunge 30% year-on-year to $2.12bn (£1.46bn, €1.87bn).

Princess Diana: Iconic dresses go up for auction including tartan creation found in charity shop

In the midst of the deplorability of her inconvenient demise and unpropitious marriage to Prince Charles tormented with stories of embarrassment, Princess Diana still holds the legacy of a humanitarian and maybe much all the more broadly, a worldwide design symbol.

The Princess of Wales bloomed from a caterpillar into a butterfly before the country's eyes as the bashful 19-year-old nursery teacher that stood out as truly newsworthy for wearing a translucent skirt, uncovering the layout of her legs, to a Versace-wearing smooth socialite of the champagne-drinking style circuits.

Also, 19 years after her demise, Princess Di is as yet motivating the fashionistas of today as her unerring style sense impacts another era of ladies. A prospective closeout of her fashioner garments will include an excellent sequin evening-outfit in a mermaid turquoise blue shade, and is set to offer for over £100,000. It is by Catherine Walker, and it was one of her top choices having been shot wearing it on a few events.

Most significantly, she wowed in the floor-length Walker creation in 1986 for an affair at the Vienna Burgh Theater in Austria, and again in 1990 at the Diamond Ball facilitated with a sparkling choker accessory. It shows up just as the Duchess of Cambridge has taken a leaf out of her late relative book by reusing an outfit – just in the event that it is justified, despite all the trouble, of course.Another uncommon tartan coat dress by Emanuel B. Couture will likewise be available to be purchased to the most elevated bidder on 14 June, which the late princess wore whilst playing with her children Princes William and Harry – and it was found by chance in a philanthropy shop. Including larger than average lapels and a substantial plaid print, it is every last bit the 1980s "it" dress.

The pieces will probably offer for oodles of cash at the London sales management firm Kerry Taylor, and barker Taylor has high trusts in the sparkling turquoise plan. "It is not at all like whatever else in her 1980s closet - the stand out that was totally secured in sequins and is extremely stylish and figure-embracing hot dress," she cooed.

"It was a most loved dress since she wore it to film debuts and philanthropy openings. She wore it no less than three times that I know of, so it was something that she more likely than not drummed up a buzz in when she wore it," Taylor included.

The dress, secured at the waist highlights shoulder cushioning, and was produced using a bit of pre-sequinned fabric by Jakob Schlaepfer. It was a piece of a progression of outfits that Princess Di authorized in front of her Austrian visit. Diana unloaded it off with 79 of her dresses at Christie's in 1997, two months before she kicked the bucket – and that was the last time it was found openly. It was sold for £33,500 in those days, yet it will probably pile on a couple of more thousand pounds in London this month.

Javier Hernandez points the finger at Louis van Gaal for destroying his Manchester United dream

Javier Hernandez supposes he could have turned into a "star" at Manchester United in the event that it was not for Louis van Gaal. The Mexican striker tumbled down the pecking request under the Dutchman, who lent him to Real Madrid and afterward sold him for a reported expense of £7.3m ($10.5m) the accompanying season to Bayer Leverkusen.

The 28-year-old striker won the Premier League amid his first season at Old Trafford and supposes he could have gone ahead to wind up a star player for the Red Devils in the event that he had been given the open door.

"On the off chance that I'd had more risks at United or Real, I'd most likely have been 'the star' there also – we'll never know. I didn't have the chance," the ex-United striker said, by Sports. "I never had the opportunity to play 20 recreations in succession so individuals could say: 'He's a decent player who ought to stay' or 'He can't be the star – he's not a decent player.'"

A year ago, van Gaal conceded he may have sold Hernandez rashly. "I don't accept a lot in rivalry. I have confidence in trust and certainty," he said of Hernandez, who left United in 2015. "Possibly that isn't right yet I have done it all my life as a supervisor. I offer trust to the players."

Hernandez has been an immense accomplishment in Germany, scoring more than 20 objectives and winning the Bundesliga Player of the Month grant three times. His extraordinary structure has even seen him connected with a major cash move back to the Premier League, with Arsenal among those supposed to be keen on his administrations.

Samsung Galaxy X: Release date, price, specs, and features of the rumoured flexible smartphone

Not content with sitting high on the Android commercial center, a late report has recommended that the cell phone mammoth, Samsung, is preparing an incredible five leaders to concrete its unflinching predominance in 2017.

While the Samsung Galaxy S8, Galaxy S8 Edge, Galaxy Note 7 and Note 7 Edge are all attempted to be among the quintet, the gossip plant is firmly directing towards the fifth and last spot being taken by the Samsung Galaxy X – the aftereffect of the South Korean organization's tests with foldable tech.

This is what we know so far about the bendy wonder – code named Project Valley:

Samsung Galaxy X: Price 

Subtle elements on the conceivable retail cost for the Galaxy X are some place amongst rare and non-existent at present.

That being said, on the off chance that you do a touch of taught estimation it is conceivable to envision the rough approximation we'll be managing come discharge. With the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge as of now offering at £639 for the 32GB base model, the Galaxy X, wearing its swanky new plan and leap forward tech, will definitely brandish a higher sticker price than its bended kin.

Samsung Galaxy X: Release Date and Availability 

Right now we are screwed over thanks to an unclear 2017 window in light of early gossipy tidbits.

With the Galaxy S extend generally propelling in the spring, Samsung could make a big appearance the Galaxy X in the meantime anyway it appears to be more legitimate to sit tight for a calmer period and not weaken its potential effect.

What we may know however is the place precisely the Galaxy X will dispatch. A report from Sammobile in November 2015 recommended that a handset conveying the model number SM-G929F (generally credited to the Galaxy X) will arrive first in the accompanying markets:

• BTU – UK 
• CPW – UK (Carphone Warehouse) 
• DBT – Germany 
• ITV – Italy 
• KOR - South Korea 
• NEE – Nordic nations 
• XEF – France 
• XEO – Poland 
• XEU – UK/Ireland 

Outstanding by its nonattendance from the rundown is the fairly colossal US market, in spite of the fact that this could be a trial list spilled by Sammobile's sources and is likely subject to change.

Samsung Galaxy X: Design 

The most interesting part of the Galaxy X is the thing that precisely it will really look like in the "tissue". Following quite a while of cycles of the same extra large screen, rectangular gadgets, the possibility of a foldable, adaptable leader is a stimulating thought.

Samsung initially touted its foldable showcase tech at CES 2013 with its OLED Youm show boards, however the recommendation of a retail-prepared flexi-telephone didn't get until 2015 with reports of a shrouded interior task code named Project Valley.

Plan signs for the Project Valley gadget developed out of South Korea on 1 April 2016 as ETNews depicted the handset as "another idea item which can be a five-inch Smartphone and seven-inch tablet if opened," which proposes the Galaxy X could turn into the intelligent end-purpose of the "phablet" outline (for some point of view, the iPad Mini extent gloats a 7.9in screen).

A conflicting patent surfaced a month later on 31 May however which imagined a Galaxy-meets-flip-telephone outline in view of a pivoted structure calculate (a comparative patent configuration was flowed as far back as September 2015). While it surely looks somewhat peculiar, a minimal telephone with a fold-out touchscreen could increase some footing for those with little pockets – despite the fact that it is important that a patent does not ensure the configuration is really underway.

Samsung Galaxy X: Display 

Our first look at Samsung's most recent era of moving/collapsing shows came at the producer's display at SID Display Week 2016.

The underneath video from SlashGear was recorded at the expo in San Francisco and demonstrates a 5.7in 1080p 386ppi OLED screen winding by means of a mechanized arm. Measuring 0.3mm profound, reports from the show affirmed that the model did not offer touch abilities in any case.

Reports propose that the last form of the Galaxy X will truth be told highlight a higher spec screen with a 4K determination "jewel PenTile sub-pixel game plan". Samsung claims the IP for PenTile network show and has utilized the design as a part of the greater part of its late Super AMOLED-donning gadgets including the Galaxy S7 territory.

Samsung Galaxy X: Specs and Features 

While there are a lot of bits of gossip concerning the Galaxy X's screen, whatever is left of its conceivable specs are undetermined.

Samsung's customary TouchWiz interface will probably show up, while the 2017 dispatch calendar could bring about the telephone being keep running on the following adaptation of Android – as yet passing by the un-sweetie-fied moniker Android N.

Samsung could well stout for the up and coming era of Qualcomm processors – the Snapdragon 830 – to power its gadget, in spite of the fact that we'll need to sit tight for future holes before judging on the RAM and capacity limits, particularly considering that the Note 6 (or ought to that be Note 7?) has had such fiercely variable spec reports.

The primary inquiries however lie in how an adaptable gadget would handle the conventional elements we've gotten to be usual to. While bendable battery models and Samsung's own adaptable juice-packs for wearables propose propels in that specific office, how precisely a MicroSD opening, conceivable waterproofing abilities and even a camera module would fit on an impermanent versatile are yet to be seen.
