Portugal and Spain is the headline match on Friday, and the rivalry, as well as recently events off the field, will make for a high octane affair. However, historically these two teams don't produce many goals: their four meetings at major tournaments have seen just four goals in total. So, we're going for a 1-0 Spain win here. What is the latest World Cup news? It's all change for England. Ashley Young looks like he has beaten Danny Rose to the starting spot at left wing-back in Gareth Southgate's England team to face Tunisia on Monday, while Jordan Henderson ho could now start ahead of Eric Dier in midfield. Harry Maguire also looks set to overtake Gary Cahill in England's three-man defence. Meanwhile, s major US broadcaster has apologised to viewers over Robbie Williams's one-finger salute. The former Take That singer marred what had been a vintage performance of his greatest hits during the World Cup's opening ceremony by showing his middle finger to the camera. Williams made the offensive gesture during his last song, Rock DJ, prompting viewers in the UK and abroad to complain. Kiran Manral wrote on Twitter: "Robbie Williams flipped the middle finger at an audience of billions. Now to sit down and explain to the offspring why he's not to do the same to even an audience of one."<doc-sep>
