Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Brazil opened the Confederations Cup with a comfortable 3-0 victory over Japan last night, goals from Neymar, Paulinho and Jo earning victory in Brasilia for the World Cup hosts.
Neymar showed why Barcelona paid £48m for his services last month with a magnificent volley from the edge of the area after Fred had chested down Marcelo’s cross.
The hosts dominated and added a second shortly after the interval, Paulinho, linked with a move to Tottenham, beating Eiji Kawashima. Former Manchester City striker Jo added a third in stoppage time. Mexico and Italy begin their Group A campaigns tonight, while Spain take on Uruguay in Group B in Recife.
