Perhaps this wasn’t the game for making proper judgments. Belgium were in the desperately awkward position of being the other team in the face of a great outpouring of Danish emotion, and for half the game they struggled in that role.

The US President attended a summit in Brussels on Tuesday, where he discussed ending a trade dispute between the bloc and the US, as well as the security threats posed by Russia. During an open session for the media, Mr Biden addressed his European partners but suddenly seemed to lose his way and started rambling incoherently.

In a statement on Monday, Trump named Pennsylvania GOP Sens. Jake Corman and David Argall. “Why is State Senator Jake Corman of Pennsylvania fighting so hard that there not be a Forensic Audit of the 2020 Presidential Election Scam?
