 Three matches into Euro 2024, you could probably make a good 45-minute compilation of Jude Bellingham’s highlights. Trouble is, they would all be from the same 45 minutes.In a column on these pages on the eve of the tournament, one of my colleagues warned not to expect the world of a young man who turned 21 on Saturday and who arrived in Germany surely feeling the mental and physical toll of an historic first season at Real Madrid, which only ended in the Champions League final at the start of this month.Others, including Gareth Southgate, beat the same drum...

As the bedraggled masses make their way home from Worthy Farm today, there has been a lot of talk about Glastonbury’s headliners this year. In the run-up to the festival, the feeling was that the three top acts on the Pyramid Stage – Dua Lipa, Coldplay, and SZA – were particularly weak selections. Though Dua pulled things back with a meticulously rehearsed pop mega-spectacular (her underwhelming third album Radical Optimism making more sense in the breezy context of Worthy Farm) Coldplay trawled out their slightly overdone formula of big hearty singalongs and light-up wristbands (along with an exceedingly weird moment...
