The Week in Review: Sport
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.AT Headingley, Great Britain beat New Zealand at rugby league again, completing a 3-0 whitewash over the tourists; but three days later, at Galashiels, the union All Blacks thumped South of Scotland 84-5. Canada beat Wales in Cardiff the same day.
The big fight went to Evander Holyfield, who surprisingly beat Riddick Bowe by more than the thickness of a parachute to regain the IBF and WBA world heayweight titles.
The F1 season ended with Ayrton Senna beating the new world champion Alain Prost in Adelaide, Senna's last race for McLaren, Prost's last race.
In football, Eric Cantona treated us to the full range of his charms, scoring two goals in the Manchester derby before picking up a four-match European ban for losing his temper in Turkey. And Graham Taylor gave Blackburn's Stuart Ripley as his final answer to half of England's prayers in Bologna next Wednesday.
