A day of sharp turns in sport saw Alexander Zverev bring Arthur Fery’s Wimbledon fairytale to a firm end, the German second seed sweeping past the British wildcard in straight sets to reach his first final at the All England Club. In football, Spain booked a World Cup semi-final against France thanks to Mikel Merino’s late intervention, beating Belgium 2-1 in Los Angeles after Fabián Ruiz had opened the scoring and the match seemed destined to drift. France’s own progress came with a darker aftermath off the pitch, as Morocco’s quarter-final exit sparked disorder on London’s Edgware Road, where riot police were deployed and arrests made. Away from competition, Liverpool face fresh upheaval: Michael Edwards is set to leave his role overseeing Fenway Sports Group’s football operations, ending another influential chapter in the club’s modern structure.
