The England football team have paid tribute to a teenager who died after collapsing at an FA Youth Cup game.

Dylan Rich suffered a suspected cardiac arrest in the match between West Bridgford Colts and Boston United in Nottinghamshire on 2 September.

The 17-year-old, who went to The West Bridgford School, died on Sunday.

On Wednesday night, ahead of their World Cup qualifier against Poland, the England players held up a shirt with 'For Dylan' printed on it.

The official England Twitter account posted a picture with the words "Rest in peace, Dylan Rich. Forever in our thoughts".

Dylan was playing in a football match at the West Bridgford Colts ground in Regatta Way when he fell ill.

East Midlands Ambulance Service said they received a call at 19:50 BST on Thursday. Dylan was treated with a defibrillator at the ground before paramedics arrived, and he was then taken to the Queen's Medical Centre.

9/11

  9/11’s Immigration Legacy By  JULIETA MARTINELLI , ALEJANDRA SALAZAR and  VICTORIA ESTRADA   SEP 10, 2021   HISTORY   IMMIGRATION   NEWS   PODCASTS   POLITICS September 11, 2001 was a paradigm shift. It is considered the deadliest terrorist attack in world history: nearly 3,000 people died and thousands more sustained lifelong injuries, depression, and PTSD. After the World Trade Center fell, a traumatized nation lived in terror of another attack, and amid the chaos, the United States set out to prioritize national safety above all. The 24-hour news cycle of the attacks focused endlessly on the identity of the terrorists: non-citizens who had been able to exploit “vulnerabilities” in the immigration system. In the eyes of the United States, “national safety” required an urgent revamp of the system—and the public agreed. People were willing to grant full control to government agencies under the guise that they’d keep Americans...

  Cryptocurrencies Bitcoin Falls to Lowest in Month as El Salvador Rollout Falters Bitcoin plunged as much as 17% to its lowest level in a month as El Salvador’s crypto rollout appeared to be faltering.  The largest cryptocurrency fell as low as $43,050 in New York Tuesday, tumbling more than 10% in the course of an hour, before recouping about half the losses.

NFL

  Tom Brady, Buccaneers get 2021 NFL season off to a fiery start TAMPA -- On the night the Tampa Bay Buccaneers inflated two silver Lombardi Trophies, unveiled a video featuring pirate ships, swords, fire, and players in the midst of it all, and followed it with a video of those same players proclaiming how happy they are that fans are back, the NFL's season opener managed to reward fans -- all fans -- on their long-awaited return to football. The smoke, the raucousness, the flag-waving, the noise. The resilience. The relentlessness. All of it was back, a reminder of what millions of fans around the country had missed seeing in person last season, and a promise for what both the Bucs and Cowboys could deliver in the new one. It seemed entirely fitting that fans here screamed for the come-from-behind field goal, which was kicked with seven seconds remaining in the 31-29 thriller before it had even cleared the plane of the 5-yard line. Bucs fans had waited a long time -- through a pa...
