UAE Team Emirates rider Tadej Pogacar began his much-anticipated defence of his Tour de France title this week.

And the while the Slovenian superstar safely made it through Day 1, the same could not be said of teammate Marc Hirschi who found himself in a huge pile up.

The Swiss was left in agony in a ditch on the side of the road after the crash that started when Team Jumbo Visma's Tony Martin collided with a fan who strayed on to the road.

Despite suffering a separated shoulder blade, Hirschi was still fit enough to start Stage 2 on Sunday. Saturday's opening stage was won by home rider Julian Alaphilippe.

Portugal's 2-2 draw with France also saw Cristiano Ronaldo score his 108th and 109th goals for his country, equalling Ali Daei's record set with Iran.
