When Everton’s dramatic late victory over Crystal Palace was confirmed by referee Michael Salisbury, the Toffees had just updated the player’s bio on their X account.

Three words were hidden beneath the club’s renowned badge: Grealish for England.

Under interim manager Lee Carsley, a 3-1 victory over Finland in Helsinki came almost a year after Jack Grealish last wore a Three Lions shirt.

After being cut out of Thomas Tuchel’s most recent squad for a friendly against Wales on Thursday, followed by a World Cup qualifier in Latvia on October 14, it will be a while before the 30-year-old has the chance to represent his country once more.

However, one thing is unmistakably obvious: Grealish will use his best efforts to sway his way into Tuchel’s World Cup plans for the upcoming summer.

After Dean Henderson had denied Beto from point blank range, Grealish scored the 93rd-minute winner to seal his team’s comeback victory after providing four assists in his first six Premier League starts for Everton.

Everton’s 98th minute and 20 second home Premier League victory came against Newcastle in March 2022, making it their latest home victory goal since March 2022.

Do you possess any knowledge of madness? Grealish stated in an interview with Sky Sports following the game.

In the 85th minute, I said to myself, “Come on Jack, go and score!” after the last games we’ve played here, we’ve been drawing. Imagine if you had already scored.

I made the mistake when I was playing for Aston Villa. I made the mistake against West Ham, but I was unsuccessful.

After making six consecutive Premier League starts for the first time in nearly two and a half years, Grealish’s final three games were against them on Sunday.

When Everton return to action after the international break on October 18, he will not be able to face his parent club Manchester City.

249 days until the World Cup begins. Will Grealish board an aircraft bound for England?

What do you know, exactly? After the Palace game, he said to BBC Radio 5 Live, “I don’t believe it’s as deep as everyone claims.

“You want to play for the national team, but people are doing well in my position,” you say. I’m doing well, too, but the players I picked last month did a lot of good in both games, which is fine with me.

I fully respect the manager’s decision, and I do that.

Grealish continued, “I’m focused on playing for Everton because they put their trust in me and believed in me, so I’m really enjoying it here.”

Wayne Rooney, a former England striker, claimed that Tuchel will be “heard by headaches” due to Grealish’s form at Everton.

Rooney, who has made 53 goals in 120 appearances for England, said, “All Jack can do is keep doing what he is doing, obviously getting a goal today.”

I’m certain that he will be there or somewhere in the summer if he continues to do that.

Tuchel insists that Grealish, who has 39 caps and four goals for his country, can still enter the World Cup in the summer.

The England manager stated on Friday that “there is always a way back into the camp.”

Jack is aware of his role in Everton’s success and that he is working toward becoming the best version of himself.

Since joining Manchester City on a season-long loan from the Premier League, Grealish has played 556 minutes, five goals, 17 chances, and 10 shots in his first seven Premier League games.

After their first victory since August 30, “Jack’s done great again,” said Everton manager David Moyes.

I’ve been urging him to score. He is “Johnny on the spot.”

Beto should have buried Iliman Ndiaye’s cross because it was incredible. However, Jack is already close enough to get the goal.

Round three leaderboard for the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship

–18 R MacIntyre (Sco), -14 T Hatton (Eng), -13 R Sterne (SA), J Parry (Eng)

Selected others: -12 S Jamieson (Sco), J Smith (Eng), -11 G Forrest (Sco), -10 B Koepka (US), T McKibbin (NI), T Clements (Eng), R Mansell (Eng)

Robert MacIntyre, a national hero, won the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship in testing conditions, becoming the first Scotsman to win the title in 20 years.

Only a week after helping Europe secure a dramatic Ryder Cup victory in New York, MacIntyre, 29, carded a third round of 66 to finish on 18 under par.

Play was halted on Saturday due to strong winds from Storm Amy, which caused the tournament to be split into 54 holes.

Following in the footsteps of Colin Montgomerie, who was the last Scotsman to triumph at the Alfred Dunhill in 2005, MacIntyre, who also won the Scottish Open last year at The Renaissance Club.

Tyrrell Hatton, a Ryder Cup team-mate of MacIntyre, finished second, four shots back of the Scot, in the seventh-under round on Sunday.

With four European Tour victories, world number nine MacIntyre, who won the Ryder Cup with one and a half points for Europe in Bethpage Black, is now the top player.

We’ll do our best, according to MacIntyre, but it’s brilliant that I’m not sure how I’m going to celebrate following the celebrations we had last Sunday.

It’s a lovely way to wrap up a successful week. This week, I’ve done everything in opposition to the book. I had 12 holes and only pitched up here on Wednesday.

I’ve consumed numerous takeaways, fish and chips, and other foods during this week’s bad diet.

“But things do happen occasionally when you least expect them to.”

With a birdie on the first hole, MacIntyre made a quick start to his final round, finishing at four under par.

The Scots continued to dominate the leaderboard after making a precise approach from the rough on the 13th, beating the 17th and missing the 18th to seal the victory.

Colombo hosted the ICC Women’s World Cup.

India 247 (50 overs): Deol 46 (65), Baig 4-69

Pakistan 159 (43 overs): Amin 81 (106), Goud 3-20

India defeated 88 runs to win.

With a respectable 88-run victory over Pakistan in Colombo, India continued their 100 percent success in the Women’s World Cup.

In a game in which many batters started but failed to capitalize, India increased to 247 with the top-scoring 46 and Richa Ghosh smashed an unbeaten 35 from 20 balls late in.

Pakistan’s final ball of the series was 4-69, and they still haven’t managed to get a first win.

Pakistan rallied for good after going 26-3 in the chase, with Natalia Pervaiz scoring 69 for the fourth wicket and Sidra Amin, who went on to record 81 from 105 balls after being dropped three times.

However, India persevered, winning the 43rd over with a score of 3-20, to defeat Pakistan for 159.

The most important discussion point was probably caused by a controversial run-out in Pakistan’s opening innings.

Goud struck the left-hander on the pad, and Deepti Sharma collected the loose ball and threw at the stumps as the Indian bowler appealed unsuccessfully for lbw.

She hit, but replays revealed that Muneeba had grounded her bat before the ball even reached the end zone, and third umpire Kerrin Klaaste’s “not out” decision appeared on the big screen in the ground.

The decision was revisited before the game even started, and it turned out that Muneeba had lifted her bat and was still standing out of her crease when the ball hit the stumps and dislodged the bails.

The third umpire changed the batter’s decision to “out” and, despite Pakistan’s protests, which saw captain Fatima Sana instruct her batter to stay put for a short while, Muneeba had to leave.

30.01 When he or she is on their toes.

30.1.1 A batter is deemed to be out of his or her rights if the popping crease in the middle of his or her person or bat does not exist.

Things should have been crystal clear right away in this game that things wouldn’t be simple.

It was surprising Sana and Harmanpreet Kaur not shake hands in a setting of political tensions, especially given recent precedents set by the men’s teams.

No one could have predicted Sana’s caller’s error and still being successful in the toss.

As Harmanpreet flicked the coin, the Pakistan skipper called out “tails,” but match officials Shandre Fritz misheard and said “heads is the call.”

The coin landed on heads as a result of the repeated words made by broadcaster and former Australia batter Mel Jones, who had won the toss.

Sana was able to intervene and confirm that Pakistan would bowl first because neither captain had raised any questions about it.

Between the toss conflict and the run-out debate, bugs dominated the match.

There was a brief stoppage in play in the 25th over as Harmanpreet raised the matter with the umpire, and flying insects were spotted swarming around the players’ heads throughout the entire India innings.

Later, she was let go, but the issue persisted, with Pakistani players attempting to disperse the flies with cans of bug spray and wafting towels.

Little did it help, and things only started to get worse until a man wearing a gas mask tried to fumigate the pitch.

A dramatic scene was created by large plumes of bug-busting spray spray scattered across the playing area, but it appeared to do little to stop the bugs in the interim.
