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.

Graeme Souness saw his new club, Galatasaray, go out of the Uefa Cup 4-2 on aggregate in the first round last night after they were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Sparta Prague.

Dean Saunders, who left Aston Villa to follow the former Liverpool manager to Turkey, gave his side a promising start with a goal after five minutes, but Pavel Nedved equalised 18 minutes later.

Red Star Belgrade, European Cup winners in 1991, also failed to progress beyond the first round in their first international competition since the end of the worldwide ban on Yugoslav teams in line with UN sanctions against Serbia. They drew 0-0 away in Switzerland against Neuchatel Xamax and were eliminated 1-0 on aggregate.
