The Prime Minister has walked back controversial comments made during a podcast interview last week. Anthony Albanese says he "unequivocally" apologises for his answer to a question about pop star Kylie Minogue. Meanwhile, fury has erupted at the World Cup after FIFA lifted a ban on a US striker. The decision followed a phone call from Donald Trump, sparking outrage across the tournament. Overnight in Sydney, a driver wreaked havoc through the CBD after police tried to pull him over. The chase left a motorbike rider injured, and he wasn't the only casualty. And finally, in Melbourne's inner east, a convenience store has been destroyed after arsonists rammed and torched the building. Investigators are now working to determine who was behind the attack. | *Subscribe and 🔔: http://9Soci.al/KM6e50GjSK9* *Get more breaking news at 9News.com.au: http://9Soci.al/iyCO50GjSK6* FOLLOW 9News Australia ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/9News/ ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/9NewsAUS ► Ins
