England boss Sarina Wiegman left confused by journalist using amusing British turn of phrase
Sarina Wiegman was left confused by a journalist using a British turn of phrase as he asked a question ahead of England’s World Cup clash against Nigeria. “The cat is out of the bag now, with respect to Lauren James,” a reporter said, before he was interrupted by the Lionesses manager and asked to clarify what he meant. “I’m sorry, my English is not perfect,” Wiegman replied, sparking laughter from the room. After a standout performance against China in England’s final group game, James’s quality is a secret no longer - the cat certainly is out of the bag in that regard.

Dozens of people were dramatically rescued from choppy seas in the Mediterranean as they clung to a rocky reef on Sunday 6 August, after suspected migrant boats launched by smugglers from northern Africa shipwrecked in rough waters.

In a particularly risky operation, two helicopters battled strong winds to pluck people to safety, one by one, after they were stranded for nearly two days on a steep, rocky reef off the tiny Lampedusa island.
