This framed what had happened further north immediately before even more succinctly.Even if Borussia Dortmund’s meeting with RB Leipzig had the statute of a defining match of the early part of the Bundesliga season, with second facing third, on the ground expectations were more modest in North Rhine-Westphalia. Whether it was Niko Kovac quoting his fellow former Bayern manager Giovanni Trapattoni (“if you can’t win, you can’t lose,” he reflected at full-time) or his opposite number Ole Werner talking of his “still developing” side, it felt as if a 1-1 draw was just, leaving both parties partial...

4 w. ago My son is turning 18 – and I am inexplicably sad | Zoe Williams

He is now an adult, so I have no right to dictate the state of his hair or his choice of diet. But I hadn’t expected this to be such an emotional wrenchNot counting the many thousands of words I spent complaining about being pregnant, I wrote my first column about my son, T, 18 years ago today, when he was three hours old.
