GOSSIP
On Tuesday, (a full day before the rest of the English-speaking media caught up) we told you how Germany’s Patrick Helmes was planning to honour the memory of his dead golden retriever Emmy with a goal against England. Thanks to a Terry/ Carson communication breakdown of epic proportions, the Bayern Leverkusen striker was able to “point to the sky with his index finger, look at the clouds and think about Emmy”.
Sadly for Helmes, he had little else to celebrate last night.
