Alex Greenwood is well enough to return home and is set to be checked out by Manchester City after sustaining a head injury while on England duty. England’s 3-2 Women’s Nations League loss in Belgium on Tuesday evening was compounded by Greenwood being carried off on a stretcher following an accidental clash of heads with Jassina Blom in the first half. Greenwood was “conscious and talking” afterwards, according to Lionesses boss Sarina Wiegman, who added: “I haven’t talked to the medical staff yet. She’s alright – when she’s walking, she’s alright.” City issued a further update on their defender, who received treatment for more than 10 minutes on the field before being taken off and replaced by Chelsea’s Jess Carter. A statement on City’s website on Wednesday morning said: “Alex Greenwood will return to the City Football Academy for further medical assessments after sustaining a head injury on international duty. “We can confirm she has been carefully monitored, is alert and well and will return home later today ahead of a review with our medical team.” England’s hopes of progressing in the competition suffered a blow following a second loss, with Belgium leapfrogging the Lionesses into second place in their group after a seesaw encounter in Leuven. Belgium took the lead through Laura de Neve but an England side missing several key players hit back through Lucy Bronze and Fran Kirby before a leveller from Tessa Wullaert, who then scored a penalty. Former England captain Faye White believes this will be a good test of the resolve of the Euro 2022 champions and Women’s World Cup finalists and called on them to be more clinical in front of goal. “I think after major tournaments in the past, England have always gone into really easy qualifying group games and this Nations League is a good test now because it’s higher quality opposition, almost like the knockouts or a group stage of a of a tournament,” White told BBC Radio 5 Live. “It’s dealing with all these different factors, plus (they had) two real key players still out, waiting for Beth Mead and Leah Williamson to come back. Lauren James wasn’t available either in the squad. “But we’re strong enough still to be able to get these games – when you make 18 chances but only put two away and still concede three, that’s the issue, isn’t it?” Read More ‘Bazball’ enters Collins English Dictionary as one of 10 words of the year Tiger Woods-designed course gives ‘a lot of options’ ahead of PGA Tour debut Golf, fish tanks, slippy socks and stray balls – freak injuries to cricket stars Nottingham Panthers invite all fans to gathering in honour of Adam Johnson San Antonio Spurs record dramatic upset against Phoenix Suns in dying seconds On this day in 2018: Simone Biles dominates in Doha despite kidney stone

Lil Nas X brought the shock factor with his Halloween costume this year, by dressing up as a used tampon, complete with giant model vagina to hang out of. The singer could be seen strutting in heels and a white costume drenched in red, while carrying a string. While many people loved that he'd thought outside the box, others were concerned he was capitalising off an experience he's never had to go through. 'I hope you had a bloody good time', one person joked in the comments. Click here to sign up for our newsletters.

Robbie Williams never snogged Gary Barlow, Jason Orange, Howard Donald or Mark Owen when he was in Take That in the 90s.

This year, celebrities treated Halloween as the second Met Gala, going above and beyond for their star-studded bashes. From Heidi Klum's impressive peacock look (complete with 10 Cirque du Soleil performers) to Kendall Jenner as Marilyn Monroe and her famed Kardashian sisters cosplaying as Bratz dolls, they all collectively won Halloween. Even Hailey Bieber seemingly made a tongue-in-cheek reference to Mean Girls after TikTokers cruelly called her the new Regina George following a clash with Selena Gomez earlier this year. Well now, attention has been turned to Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne who creatively dressed up as Kanye West and Bianca Censori with her infamous pillow outfit. Sharon's post to Instagram left followers in hysterics, with one person calling it "the greatest thing I've ever seen." "LMAO KANYE AND HIS WIFE GIRL BYE SLAY SHARON," another user added, while a third commented: "You guys are epic! Looking great, Sharon!" Meanwhile, some people were lost and did not quite understand the pop culture reference... For the blissfully unaware, Kanye and his rumoured wife made headlines over the summer during their trip across Italy. Many outfits turned heads for their risque nature – but one in particular, was Censori covering herself with a hotel pillow. The snaps sparked confusion and backlash online, with one writing: "How completely ridiculous these people are. Put on some clothes and then you won’t have to take a hotel room cushion out sightseeing with you - and you even get your arms free! Novel concept." Meanwhile, one person called their behaviour "unhinged," writing: "Kanye & Bianca Censori are unhinged. Someone ought to stage an intervention. Wearing a pillow? Him walking in socks?"

He didn’t seem weighed down by anything. He was in a really good place, which is why this seems so unfair.” Kauffman, Crane along with executive producer Bright also released a statement together after news broke of Perry's unexpected death. "We are shocked and deeply, deeply saddened by our beloved friend Matthew’s passing," they said. "He was a brilliant talent. It’s a cliche to say that an actor makes a role their own, but in Matthew’s case, there are no truer words. From the day we first heard him embody the role of Chandler Bing, there was no one else for us. "We will always cherish the joy, the light, the blinding intelligence he brought to every moment – not just to his work, but in life as well. He was always the funniest person in the room. More than that, he was the sweetest, with a giving and selfless heart. They concluded: "We send all of our love to his family and friends. This truly is The One Where Our Hearts Are Broken." Perry's fellow Friends castmates also released a joint tribute on Monday (October 30). “We are all so utterly devastated by the loss of Matthew. We were more than just cast mates. We are a family,” the sitcom stars wrote in a statement to People. “There is so much to say, but right now we’re going to take a moment to grieve and process this unfathomable loss,” they continued. “In time we will say more, as and when we are able. For now, our thoughts and our love are with Matty’s family, his friends, and everyone who loved him around the world.” How to join the indy100's free WhatsApp channel Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.
