Stars collide
Wrexham co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney will take on former Premier League stars in a winner-takes-all seven-a-side tournament worth $1million (£800,000).
The Soccer Tournament is due to take place in North Carolina between May 31 and June 4, with 32 teams battling for the hefty prize.
A-listers Reynolds and McElhenney will represent Wrexham Red Dragons but are sure to have their work cut out against some of the former pros also lining up.
For example, Blade and Grass are made up of Stephen Ireland, Chris Eagles, Emile Heskey, Oumar Niasse, Geoff Cameron, Brek Shea and Keiren Westwood — who boast over 1,000 Premier League appearances between them.
Meanwhile, the American duo will face World Cup winner and Arsenal icon Cesc Fabregas in the group stage, with the Spaniard set to represent his current Italian Serie B side Como.
Wolves, West Ham and Borussia Dortmund have also entered teams, with other entrants ranging from a US Women line-up to YouTube-famous British outfit Hashtag United.
Time for change
Marc Skinner has backed his Manchester United players to end their rotten run against Chelsea in Sunday’s Women’s FA Cup Final.
Since their inception in 2018, United have never recorded a victory over the Blues in any competition with Emma Hayes’ side winning both Women’s Super League clashes this term.
But Skinner is convinced that his players can snap that miserable streak in this weekend’s Wembley showpiece.
The 40-year-old coach said: “This will be different.
“There’s no doubt in my mind that if you want to pick a favourite, then Chelsea should be put on that mantle because of the fact they have been here before and done this before.
“But the reality is we have a team of rebels that want to make sure that won’t be the fact.
“It’s a single game. It’s a single focus. On the day we’ll try to manage as best we can.”
Wish Granted
Grant McCann has returned to League Two club Doncaster for a second spell as boss.
McCann led Rovers to a sixth-placed finish in League One in the 2018-19 campaign before leaving the club to join Championship outfit Hull.
But after sacking Danny Schofield earlier this week, the Yorkshire-based club have moved quickly to bring the Northern Irishman back to the Keepmoat Stadium.
