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.

England have reached the quarter-finals of the World Cup after an impressive 3-0 win over Denmark.

All the English goals came in the first-half, with the first coming after just five minutes when Danish goalkeeper Thomas Sorenson fumbled a Rio Ferdinand header into the net, Michael Owen made it two after 22 minutes and Emile Heskey scored the third when he drove home a long-range shot just before half-time.

In the second-half England were happy to sit back on their lead and absorb the pressure. Although Denmark had some half-chances they never looked like getting back into the game.
