Latest report from Trevor Davies

Trevor Davies updates us with his thoughts just before England's defeat by Germany...

Saturday's always our busiest day on the News of the World, but yesterday felt really full-on, preparing a paper to roar England on Sunday. All the excitement, anticipation and craziness is there in the paper. We start off in our news pages with a tribute to footballing gods and move on to the latest on players and fans before discovering the scientific formula for a perfect penalty on our third spread.

As well as helping to put the paper to bed, the Gadgits column made a contribution to all the world cuppery by finding out the result of the England v Germany game.

We asked the guys at Football Manager Live to feed in the likely team line-ups for today's game and they came up with a 3-1 win for England. Sounds far-fetched, but Football Manager is based on detailed stats, right down to which foot a player kicks with. So if I trusted anyone's match prediction it would be theirs. We managed to get a video of it on our site here http://tinyurl.com/2dcs6kr. We're off to a screening of the match at Brick Lane later. Here's hoping it will be as good as the Football Manager version…
