Bobby Charlton, the Manchester United legend who was a key figure in England's 1966 World Cup victory, has died at the age of 86. Charlton won 106 caps for England and scored 49 international goals - records for his country at the time. During a 17-year first-team career with United he won three league titles, a European Cup and an FA Cup. Charlton's family said he "passed peacefully in the early hours of Saturday morning".

The public commemoration service to mark the death of Sir Bobby Charlton was a global event. You knew that by the number of TV crews present, both at Manchester Cathedral and Old Trafford. It was also evident in the stature of some of the people who turned up, which included Prince William, England manager Gareth Southgate and Aleksander Ceferin, president of European football's governing body Uefa.
