‌Things then nosedived spectacularly at Sunderland where he infamously endured a 1,370-day drought without winning a Premier League game in which he started. Following the game, the then 18-year-old said: “We’ve beaten Man City, Chelsea and now Man United. “Just to get on against United (Rodwell and fellow scorer Dan Gosling were both substitutes) was great, but to score and beat them was the icing on the cake. O’Keeffe wrote: “With a grim predictability born of winning 17 of the last 19 Premier League clashes at Goodison, United took the lead with 15 minutes gone. “Arteta slipped a ball to the teenager who carried it confidently, dummied Johnny Evans and beat Van de Sar with a neat finish that sent Goodison Park into raptures.”

Simon Harris said initial communication about it, in which almost 200 schools were told they could lose SNAs, was “botched”. It came after the National Council for Special Education told several schools they could lose part of their SNA allocation. Mr Moynihan also repeatedly refused to say if he expected any schools to lose SNAs. Mr Doherty accused Mr Moynihan of plunging families into panic and said: “Children with additional needs and their families are entitled to certainty, stability and respect. After initially saying the process would be done in “a number of weeks” and “as soon as possible", Mr Moynihan declined to give a specific date.

Scientists hope to detect early signs of ovarian cancer using a potentially ‘game-changing’ tampon in a new clinical trial. Researchers from University Hospital Southampton are recruiting 250 women with the ‘Angelina Jolie gene’, which significantly increases their risk of breast and ovarian cancer. David Constable-Phelps, a consultant gynaecological oncology surgeon and co-investigator for the study, said: ‘The ability to detect the earliest signs of ovarian cancer, with a relatively non-invasive test such as the Daye tampon, would be a complete game-changer for women with ovarian cancer. ‘Ovarian cancer commonly has non-specific symptoms in its early and late stages, so the tumour can spread to other organs silently. She added: ‘It could both help them reduce their risk of ovarian cancer development or pick it up in the earliest stages, when it is most treatable.’

Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior said he would take his players off the pitch if no action were to be taken in the event of racism during a game. Speaking in the aftermath of allegations made by Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior on Tuesday that he was racially abused by Benfica’s Gianluca Prestianni during a Champions League game, Rosenior said he would not allow a match to continue if he “categorically heard” racist abuse. He spent much of the time that the game was paused seated alone in the Real dugout. Whether teams should refuse to continue in incidences of racist abuse is a question which has been raised repeatedly in recent years. “If I categorically heard racism and nothing was done about it, I would take my team off the pitch.
