Laszlo Nemeth, the England coach, has named a largely unchanged squad for England's penultimate European Championship semi-final round Group B game against Portugal at Newcastle Arena next Wednesday. The England attack will be spearheaded by ex-NBA duo Steve Bucknall and John Amaechi, as they look to pick up their second win of the competition.

Michael Jordan scored an NBA season-high 51 points, including two clutch jumpers in the final 67 seconds, as the Chicago Bulls continued their decade-long dominance of the New York Knicks with an 88-87 victory on Tuesday.
