However, the Proteas were disciplined in their line and length in the first hour of play and were deservedly rewarded for their efforts as Rory Burns mistimed a ball straight into the hands of Kagiso Rabada off the bowling of Anrich Nortje. Joe Denly soon followed and England were in a spot of bother at 158-3. England’s two main hopes, Joe Root and Stokes then joined each other at the crease and began steadying England’ ship....

Despite that inauspicious beginning, 2017 is shaping up to be a good year for Kaka and Orlando City. He has returned from his hamstring injury looking as dangerous as ever — as evidenced by his recent wonder-goal in Orlando’s draw with Sporting Kansas City — and the Lions look like they have the best team they’ve had since entering MLS two years ago. Kaka is having fun, and rather than thinking about retirement, he believes he has at least two more years to play....

The 18-year-old Finnish rookie scored his second goal of the night 2:36 into overtime to give the New York Rangers a 3-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday. “It’s getting better,” Kakko said. “I guess it’s always good when you score a couple of goals.” Adam Fox had a goal in regulation and set up Kakko’s winner as New York recovered after blowing a two-goal lead and improved to 5-1-1 in its last seven games....

Trump has upped the ante on his assaults on Biden’s character and record, as he trails the Democratic presidential candidate in the polls, but thus far this has not made a major dent on his ratings. According to YouGov’s tracker, Biden’s rating is 49.9 percent favorable compared to 47.1 not, a minor boost from recent weeks. Trump’s falls behind on both counts, with 42 percent favorable and 57.1 percent not, and Biden seemingly fairing better in the war of words between them....

Spurs went into the game needing to at least match Inter’s result at home to PSV – which finished 1-1 – and Lucas Moura’s late equaliser saw them do just that. They fell behind early on to Ousmane Dembele’s solo effort, but once they settled, Spurs were the better team on the day, crafting a host of chances. Spurs could even argue they did enough to win the game, though in the end the draw was enough and star striker Kane was elated....

A Ryan Shawcross own-goal broke the deadlock and Son Heung-min got in on the act with a fine second before Kane’s double moved him on to 50 goals for club and country in 2017. It marked an emphatic return to winning ways for Spurs, who had only taken two points from their past four Premier League matches. “That was what we needed, we had to get the first goal and we did that and that was it....

The 22-year-old midfielder contributed nine goals and 10 assists as Tottenham finished third in the Premier League in the 2017-18 season. And with the World Cup on the horizon, Kane is confident that his Spurs team-mate’s game-changing ability - as evidenced by his brace in a 3-1 win over Chelsea in April - can stand to benefit England in Russia. “Dele has scored goals, assisted goals and he’s a game-changer,” Kane told his club’s official website....

Tattoo lands Man Utd man in trouble Kane ended the season in red-hot form, scoring four goals in the 6-1 victory over Leicester City, prior to netting a hat-trick in the 7-1 thumping of Hull City on the final day. However, EA Sports chose to give in-forms to Sergio Aguero, who scored twice against Watford, Alexandre Lacazette, who netted a brace against Nice, and Marco Reus, who also scored twice for Borussia Dortmund against Werder Bremen....

Leicester City hero Vardy led the line for the Three Lions and opened the scoring in Tuesday’s 1-1 draw against Italy at Wembley. Kane is currently rehabilitating from an ankle injury and is set to return to action for Tottenham next month as the World Cup in Russia draws closer. Vardy has generally been seen as an understudy to the two-time Premier League Golden Boot winner but the fluid three-at-the-back formation employed by England boss Gareth Southgate during the international break has opened up the possibility of them playing together as a front two....

The English team was in danger of heading out of the competition after just four games when it went behind after just 61 seconds at Wembley Stadium. Instead, Kane’s goals — in the 78th and 89th minutes — gave Tottenham a glimmer of hope of a top-two finish in Group B with matches still to come at home to Inter Milan and away to already-qualified Barcelona. Tottenham is in third place, three points behind second-place Inter....

In what was a dour start to the game, neither side managed to get a foothold in the first half, although Weston McKennie and Paulo Dybala sustained injuries. Aaron Ramsey and Dejan Kulusevski entered the fray, but both men were guilty of missing gilt-edged chances right before half-time. Earlier, the visitors were reduced to ten men after Pedro Obiang’s yellow card for a dangerous challenge on Federico Chiesa was upgraded to a red following a VAR consulation....

Lazio President Claudio Lotito has remained open to the player’s sale, and PSG remains the likeliest destination for the Serbian. However, PSG sporting director Leonardo reportedly believed that €75 million would be enough to open negotiations between the two parties....
