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.After Chelsea beat Tottenham in the Capital One Cup final, there was the customary walk up the Wembley steps, lap of honour on the pitch and opening of champagne in the dressing room.
But one player clearly didn't like the bubbly that was on offer.
Star winger Eden Hazard may have helped the Blues to a 2-0 win, but there was no way he was going to be getting too inebriated in the changing room.
After taking a (very) large gulp from one of the celebratory bottles, Hazard, not impressed, screws up his face after swallowing.
He may have been saving himself for later, although Jose Mourinho said the players were only allowed to celebrate for 20 minutes.
"It's beautiful to be back at Wembley, but it will be 20 minutes of celebration, then back to training and we have a big game on Wednesday," said the manager.
