England weren't the only team in Group L to win their World Cup opener after raising their game in the second half. Ghana‚ the next opponents for Thomas Tuchel's side in Boston on Tuesday‚ shook off a cautious start against Panama to win in Toronto last week with a dramatic 95th-minute goal from Caleb Yirenkyi. No wonder new coach Carlos Queiroz went onto the pitch at the end to celebrate victory in only his second game in charge‚ just 70 days after Sir Alex Ferguson's former No 2 at Manchester United replaced Otto Addo on a four-month contract.

IAN LADYMAN AT OLD TRAFFORD: Former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has been taken to hospital from Old Trafford this afternoon after feeling unwell at the stadium. It is understood that the 84-year-old has been taken into medical care purely as a precaution and officials at the club are optimistic that he will soon be recuperating at home. Sir Alex - the most successful manager in the club's history - is a regular at United home and away matches and had travelled to Old Trafford today ahead of the big Premier League game between his club and their great rivals Liverpool. He is understood to have been taken to hospital more than an hour before kick-off.

McClaren was assistant to Erik ten Hag at United from mid-2022 until he departed at the end of the 2023-24 season. It was his second stint at the club‚ having previously held the position from 1999 to 2001 under Sir Alex Ferguson. United struggled for success under Ten Hag‚ but McClaren left off his own accord three months before the Dutchman was relieved of his duties. On the back of an illustrious career and CV that also saw him have an unsuccessful stint as England manager‚ McClaren was well respected by the players.

OLIVER HOLT: It is a feeling that approaches certainty. It is a feeling of pride in its team and an expectation that it will win. You could feel it Barcelona when Pep Guardiola was the manager there. You could feel it in Madrid in the days of Ronaldo and Benzema. You could feel it in Manchester when Sir Alex Ferguson 's side was the best in Europe.

CHRIS WHEELER AT OLD TRAFFORD: Another two points will do it for sure‚ but this felt like the night when Manchester United booked their place in next season's Champions League. Victory in a right ding-dong at Old Trafford mathematically ended Brentford's chances of catching Michael Carrick's team. Only Brighton and Bournemouth can stop them now‚ but it would take a collapse of Devon Loch proportions‚ to borrow one of Sir Alex Ferguson's favourite analogies.

Next month marks 10 years since Louis van Gaal was brutally sacked as Manchester United manager despite guiding the club to FA Cup glory. The Dutchman brought the Red Devils their first trophy in the post Sir Alex Ferguson era with a 2-1 victory over Crystal Palace after extra-time at Wembley. Van Gaal was a big believer in bringing young players through and he did that in his two years at Old Trafford‚ with 14 of those either coming through the youth or reserve ranks to make their first-team debuts.

Former Premier League forward Carlos Tevez has shown off his impressive mansion in a YouTube video after a career that saw him earn millions. The Argentine played for the likes of Manchester United and Manchester City in the Premier League‚ famously swapping the red half of Manchester for blue in 2009 before going on to mock Sir Alex Ferguson. Having also featured for West Ham‚ he retired from playing in 2021 and is now the head coach of Talleres in his native Argentina at the age of 42.

CHRIS WHEELER: Michael Owen has warned that the Manchester United hierarchy would be 'lynched' if they got rid of Michael Carrick at the end of the season and his replacement flopped at Old Trafford. Carrick has made a strong case to stay in charge after winning seven and drawing two of his first 10 games in charge to put United within touching distance of a Champions League place. Owen is 'astounded' that some people like Roy Keane and Gary Neville have reservations over his old team-mate landing the job on a permanent basis after a string of unsuccessful appointments since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in 2013.
