Felt totally numb today. The tragic news about Diogo Jota and his brother, both taken far too young, has hit me so hard for someone I didn't know personally. May they both rest in peace.

The year is 2046. 61-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo scores his 270th international goal on his 430th cap to put Portugal ahead in their World Cup opener against Egypt, after England were held to a 0-0 draw by debutants Sri Lanka in the other game in the group!

Thank you Lloret de Mar for your hospitality. Always wanted to come here as mum and dad used to come here before I was born. Just the break I needed after a very intense third year at uni. Back to Blighty tomorrow and back to work Thursday. We go again 🙌
