Jordan Pickford was England’s penalty-kick hero as they beat Switzerland on penalties to finish third in the Uefa Nations League. The Everton goalkeeper’s acrobatic save helped seal the win after the first 11 penalties in the shootout were scored – having stepped forward to hammer home England’s fifth with style. The Three Lions’ victory gave them a small measure of consolation after they lost their semi-final to the Netherlands and it was deserved after they created all the best opportunities in a predictably low-key affair. Harry Kane and Raheem Sterling hit the woodwork, Swiss keeper Yann Sommer saved superbly from…

The UK’s Labour Party has narrowly seen off a challenge from the anti-EU Brexit Party and held on to its seat in a vote in the eastern English city of Peterborough. Labour’s Lisa Forbes retained the constituency for Labour, beating Nigel Farage’s candidate Mike Greene by 683 votes.

The Brexit Party, launched only in April, swept to victory in the United Kingdom’s European Parliament election last month, riding a wave of anger over Prime Minister Theresa May’s failure to deliver Brexit on time.

Three Chinese warships sailed out of Sydney after an unannounced visit that came amid a tussle for influence between Australia and China in the Pacific. The show-of-force call by a frigate, supply ship and amphibious warfare vessel was planned but never announced by Canberra. The warships had arrived on the eve of the 30th anniversary of China’s bloody crackdown on pro-democracy protesters in and around Tiananmen Square on June 4, 1989. Ties between Australia and China hit a low last year when Canberra passed laws aimed at thwarting Chinese influence in domestic affairs and also over China’s assertiveness in the…
