The Papers: 'You can do this' and 'Widdecombe suspect probed'

Published 2 minutes ago Image caption, Many of the papers preview the World Cup semi-finals match between England and Argentina, with millions across the UK expected to tune in for the showdown at 20:00 BST on Wednesday. "You can do this" is the Daily Mirror's pep-talk headline, embedding a photo of captain Harry Kane and star goal scorer Jude Bellingham, head to head, energetically revving each other up. England's former striker Sir Geoff Hurst, who scored a hat-trick to win the 1966 World Cup final, tells the paper "I think it's coming home", a pledge of confidence "from the hero of 1966 to the boys of 2026", the paper writes. Image caption, "It's in YOUR hands now, lads" is how the Sun addresses the England side. "Forty years after Diego Maradona punched the ball into the net to help Argentina sink the 3 Lions, Harry Kane's brave band of heroes face the old enemy again tonight," the paper says, adding: "You're so close now, boys." Image caption, "Roar them on!" cheers the Daily Express, as "Harry and Jude lead England team's bid to reach the World Cup final". Image caption, Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer "plans to fly out for World Cup final if the Three Lions win tonight", the Metro reports, accompanied by the strict warning: "Don't jinx it, Keir!" among fans who are "imploring" the outgoing leader not to go. "Let's face it, he's not had too much luck lately!" is the stinging verdict. Image caption, The Daily Star gives readers a laugh with a "photo exclusive" of a Lionel Messi look-alike, with the impersonator saying he "backs England" in the semi-finals on Wednesday. "3 Lion-els" quips the paper, imploring "don't try for us Argentina" in a playful spoof of the Evita lyrics. Image caption, Several papers lead with the latest developments in the investigation into the death of former Conservative minister turned Reform UK spokeswoman Ann Widdecombe. Topping with the police's latest line of inquiry, the Daily Mail writes the suspect "may have plotted to kill others, including Reform MPs". It quotes Andy Burnham, describing him as the "Prime Minister-in-waiting", who says: "politics has darkened in the last decade" and "said he was willing to order a 'serious review' into MPs' security". Image caption, "Police exploring if attack was part of wider plot," reports the Times, citing detectives who believe the suspect "may have targeted other MPs". A 28-year-old man from Rotherham is under arrest on "suspicion of murder", the paper says, before being "rearrested on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism". Image caption, "Police examine possible leftwing motive for Widdecombe murder" says the Guardian. Counter-terror investigators conclude it was a "targeted attack", the paper writes, and are looking at whether "hatred of Widdecombe's strong views, such as those on homosexuality, was a factor". Image caption, Widdecombe "gave TV interview 20 minutes before she was killed", the i Paper writes. Reform UK leader N
