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.

The world’s 32 best Fifa players have gathered in London to play for the chance to be crowned world champion at the 2019 Fifa eWorld Cup.

Alongside the trophy and bragging rights, the winner will also take home a $250,000 (£210,000) grand prize.

The tournament takes place over three days at the O2 in London, from 2-4 August, with 16 of the players on Playstation and 16 on Xbox. The best of each stream will meet in the final, for a two-legged match to decide the world champion.

Those taking part are the best of the best when it comes to Fifa, meaning any of the players has a legitimate chance of taking home the winner’s trophy.

MoAuba looks much less relaxed, much less in control than he did before.

Both players doing their best here, with some lovely chances. But none of them yet converted.

Half time at extra time. 15 minutes left to decide who gets the $75,000 and heads into the grand final.

Nicolas gets a free kick right on the edge of the box.

And he misses.

Andrew Griffin4 August 2019 16:57

Both players getting lots of nice chances here – and having them shut down. It's all getting very anxious.

Full time. Penalties!!

Andrew Griffin4 August 2019 16:58

Nicolas misses his first penalty!

Andrew Griffin4 August 2019 16:58

And so does MoAuba!

And so does Nicolas on his second go!
