    If you thought there would be uproar at England drawing against Poland on Wednesday night (which thankfully didn't happen), spare a thought for how Germany will be treated on Thursday.

    SOCCER: Is there anything better in sport than minnows beating one of the world's biggest teams and looking like they can't quite believe it afterwards?

    It was also a good night for raising awareness of Macedonia's name change to North Macedonia.

    SOCCER: *Clears throat*: STAT

    GOLF: The Masters starts in seven days, so let's begin the countdown by remembering this shot from Adam Scott back in 2010.

    Wait for it, wait for it…

    SOCCER: Has anyone mentioned the phrase 'spared England's blushes' yet? We're all clearly embarrassed by not winning 5-0 instead of 2-1 against a decent Poland side. (Nice finish by the way, Harry).

    SOCCER: Fun fact about Kieran Tierney's performance if you didn't know: He played as a centre-back against the Faroe Islands.

    SOCCER: Inter Milan have a new crest, but I'm not sure about this wording here. Anyone remember the Two Ronnies' sketch 'Swedish Made Simple?'

    SOCCER: Here's Inter's new badge anyway. They announced this on Wednesday morning but their social media team must have been busy - they posted 22 times after this yesterday; mostly pictures of players doing their best model poses in new merch.

    SOCCER: Pretty much.
