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.

It doesn't look good for Jack Butland who was stretchered off in Berlin moments before half-time. #SCFC#ENGhttps://t.co/B8bE2Q3ejb1aaf09c6-fc00-4705-a500-5839bf39be8e.jpg

One sub at the break. Jonathan Tah is on for Mats Hummels. It's as you were for England.

51 mins: Alli goes straight up the other end and rifles an effort at goal from 25 yards. It's struck well but Neuer gets down well and pushes the ball clear of the danger area.

That's not good enough from England. Khedira clips a cracking ball into the area and Cahill gets caught under it. Gomez doesn't need to be asked twice and directs his header back across goal past a helpless Forster.
