Belgium are through to the Euro 2020 quarter-finals after a narrow 1-0 win over Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal on Sunday.

A swerving strike from Thorgan Hazard just before half-time clinched the victory for Robert Martinez's side at the Estadio de La Cartuja in Seville.

Ronaldo suffered a disappointing end to a tournament that has seen him become the all-time European Championships top scorer.

The 36-year-old Juventus forward saw one first-half free-kick saved by Thibaut Courtois in the Belgium goal but remains on 109 international goals, equal with the record held by Iran's Ali Daei.

Belgium now face Italy in a mouth-watering clash on Friday while Portugal have seen their reign as European champions come to an end.

Liverpool attacker missed the target with two good opportunities for the Portuguese, while Raphael Guerreiro saw a late strike hit the post.

Changing visa rules

For decades the UAE has granted two and three year visas to foreign workers, tied to their current employer. Now that's changing.

Last year, the UAE cabinet also approved providing 10-year visas to foreigners with investments in the UAE of at least Dh10 million, if non-real estate assets account for at least 60 per cent of the total. Investors can bring their spouses and children into the country.

It also approved five-year residency to owners of UAE real estate worth at least 5 million dirhams.

The government also said that leading academics, medical doctors, scientists, engineers and star students would be eligible for similar long-term visas, without the need for financial investments in the country.

The first batch - 20 finalists for the Mohammed bin Rashid Medal for Scientific Distinction.- were awarded in January and more are expected to follow.

It's Monty Python's Crashing Rocket Circus

To the theme tune of the famous zany British comedy TV show, SpaceX has shown exactly what can go wrong when you try to land a rocket.

The two minute video posted on YouTube is a compilation of crashes and explosion as the company, created by billionaire Elon Musk, refined the technique of reusable space flight.

SpaceX is able to land its rockets on land  once they have completed the first stage of their mission, and is able to resuse them multiple times - a first for space flight.

But as the video, How Not to Land an Orbital Rocket Booster, demonstrates, it was a case if you fail, try and try again.
