Ched Evans, Clayton McDonald go on trial for rape

Footballers Ched Evans and Clayton McDonald have gone on trial for the alleged rape of a drunk woman at a Premier Inn near Rhyl in May of last year.

Caernarfon Crown Court heard earlier today that both players admitted to having sex with the 19-year-old, described as too drunk to consent.

It is further alleged that an associate of the duo filmed the incident on a mobile phone.

However, Sheffield United striker Evans and Port Vale defender McDonald have denied the charge.

The trial is expected to continue into next week.
