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.

And then there were 12. Real Madrid may be the two biggest club in the world by most measures but they are out of the Champions League.

Worse than that, they're out of our Champions League power rankings, where we rate each of the remaining sides on their perceived chance of winning the big-eared trophy at Madrid's Wanda Metropolitano stadium in June.

So who goes where now? Tottenham are in the last eight after a convincing win over Borussia Dortmund while Ajax, memorably, qualified at the Bernabeu on Tuesday night.

Manchester United have flown up the rankings after that incredible comeback in Paris on Wednesday night.

So where are they in our final 12?
