Author: Agencies

ST PETERSBURG: Fabian Delph is flying back to Russia to rejoin England’s squad at the World Cup after taking time off to return home for the birth of his daughter. The 28-year-old missed the dramatic penalty shootout victory over Colombia on Tuesday night that sent England into the quarter-finals, having earlier been given permission by manager Gareth Southgate to attend the birth of his child. “I’ve just experienced the most amazing 24 hours,” Delph said in a social media post on Wednesday. “Watching my brothers come through a tough game both mentally and physically, I kicked every ball and felt every bit of emotion with the players, staff and fans.” At 07:52 Me my wife and 2 beautiful daughters welcomed their baby sister into the world… Back to Russia now.”
