england need to come out and get the three points, not disastrous if they don't, we really want england to be getting the points tonight. we have touched on england's‘s draw, usa beaten by ireland, almost a surprise and they will be desperate for points this evening. usa will come on out guns blazing. they will be ready for that game and then only to be just as ready and start hard and be just as ready and start hard and be ready for the usa coming out hard. if they can do that, england are ready to put their press on the game and be patient and build up the play and that they are game onto the usa. i am wondering if they can still hear as! another goal in the last couple of minutes. england, short corners, plenty in the opening game but couldn't make them count. nine corners and only scoring one and from a second phase was not a great ratio. if england are going to go deep in this tournament they need to do much better than that anyway, and tonight, the corners need to be filing well to get a result and hopefully, they will have been working on and training of the last couple of days

yes, some extremely dedicated england fa ns some extremely dedicated england fans that we've been meeting over the past couple of days, they are pretty pleased that they make that investment because this was, for a lot of people, they did not think england will get this far and as soon as they were sitting on their sofas or the pub watching england progress and perform, a lot of them started scrabbling to get tickets, spending a small fortune to get it and to experience the moment. the moment i think has been well worth it. they have been saying a huge jubilant crowd here, at the stadium himself, extremely pleased with the performance and this morning, in samara, ithink performance and this morning, in samara, i think it is fair to say that the bleary eyes and saw heads as the celebrations went on well into the night. amongst those england fans, there was one of rather unusual person, an man who bore a striking resemblance to perhaps the most popular person among england fans.|j perhaps the most popular person among england fans. i few people have been telling me over the years, finally g

much of england and wales, though, dry and sunday. locally hot in places, maybe 28, 20 nine celsius in the south—east. on sunday it is a similar picture. easier, with more cloud from northern ireland and western scotland. with outbreaks of rain, could see a few showers pushing into wales, north—west england. but elsewhere, across most of england and eastern wales, hot day to come. we could see one or two locations in the south—east reaching 30 or 31 celsius. so, for the end of the week it looks that we will see an increase of showers and thunderstorms for a time, and then it starts to hot up as we had on into the weekend. —— head on. i'm sharanjit leyl with bbc world news. our top story. croatia has beaten england 2—1 in the world cup semifinal. they are now through to the final where they'll play france in moscow on sunday. this is the moment croatia scored the winning second goal. earlier on, england scored in the fifth minute and led for more than an houruntil croatia equalised. rescue workers are searching for 70 peopl

i do think that england although played against belgium in the first group hasn't had that true test yet whereas colombia you know we've had two somewhat you know major test japan losing and then poland so i think we have that better preparation in terms of game play but it's going to be a very very close game and i think set pieces will be a key factor both sides you know england side and colombia side as we've had scored two or three goals on set pieces with getting enough so i'm going with a long get to one thousand straws for joining. my the best team win. the accounting firms the banks the rating agencies the government and the central bank it's called a racket the u.k. profits from it and some way that's how the aristocracy keeps going and that's not going to stop. donald trump will soon visit europe has a very busy agenda and it's unclear what kind of reception people get topping his i ten or where he will be trade relations nato and russia never before has an american president been expected with so much apprehension. that i would have learned how to another man not out of lo

something i tweeted after the result was england are out but england are back. england are back, carried on the shoulders of the manager, gareth southgate, who was in such pain 22 yea rs southgate, who was in such pain 22 years ago when he missed a penalty in the european championship. but it is also about a different group of young guys, a lot of them from yorkshire, we keep being told, in the north of england, not going around flashy and divorced from the fans, and people want to project themselves onto that sense of a new, different, more inclusive kind of england. i don't know how long it will last as we try and negotiate racks that but it was a great divergent from relations with the european union, problems with the economy, the arrival of president trump, and we live the dream for a while. sport has a brilliant way of tearing up the script. that is why the agony is so painful, but it can be exhilarating. lets share some twea ks — — be exhilarating. lets share some tweaks —— let us share some tweaks we had from our viewers. sport is global, is the

england win! victory. euphoria. but england's success has posed many a dilemma. these two are getting married this afternoon near great yarmouth. they have decided to also showed the match to guess rather than ignore it. hopefully it will be a conversation starter instead of people sitting on their phones and hiding away the blue we hope we win or it might be miserable. us series a lot, it is coming home. it is coming home. london. we barbecue is being readied, this meat has been selling fast. sausages and burgers. we will win the football 2—1 come on, england. the british beer and pub association believes £24 million will be pumped into the economy. this woman has never sold so many flags so quickly. everything has gone and we had to reorderfrom suppliers to be a good year. as soon as they score, you hear a screen, looking through the window. a nation prepares. temperatures are high. so why the hopes and expectations. the market, bbc news. —— tim muffett. our moscow correspondent, sarah rainsford, is in samara where the match takes place. it is great talk

england will feel they can go all the way. about 6000 england fans in the capital. they will be making their way, about ten spots on the metro. they will figure out how they get to samara and tickets are that quarterfinal on saturday against sweden and if you look at how this world cup is panning out, gareth southgate's team knew that getting past: there would be tough. they made it tough for themselves but they are too fairly easy teams away from reaching a world cup final. the swedes first and then what would be russia or croatia who play in that other quarterfinal. if you look at the other half of the draw, it is so tough. the favourite form is going tough. the favourite form is going to come from outside, france against uruguay on friday and we have brazil against belgium. brazil probably growing into this tournament but england, after getting out ofjail free, really, after being so deflated and getting pushed to extra time and pushed to the dreaded penalties. they will feel that they are world beaters and they have this momentum behind them and the belief they

i do think that england although played against belgium in the first group hasn't had that true test yet whereas colombia you know we've had to somewhat you know major test japan losing and then poland so i think we have that better preparation in terms of game play but it's going to be a very very close game and i think set pieces will be a key factor both sides you know england side and colombia side as we've had scored two or three goals on set pieces and getting enough so i'm going with a long get to one thousand straws for joining me by the best team win. no. effort to see i played golf. not that i'm going to learn how not that i'm not out of luck though the other not out of them out of the money that eliminated at a time i. guess was a good time to. try to move there i don't know mom. little bit of little not why not. stop for a chant and the old people we believe just a little bit here. a. lot of my kids i don't want them up as i don't have a lot of them on. a little more than having a little accuser is a lot of money and i'm a little like a might be older looking at the behin

england are living the dream. the nation is behind them. they are now just two wins away from something barely thinkable but now a reality. thanks, david. standing between england and a place in the world cup final is croatia after they knocked out hosts russia on penalties. it finished 2—2 after extra time in sochi with russia grabbing a late equaliser. it all started so well for russia, taking the lead through this cracker from dennis cheryshev. croatia equalised, and then took the lead in extra time. before russia equalised in the last few minutes. that was croatia going to— one up. penalties then, and it was down to ivan rakitic to score the final spot kick that takes croatia through to their first world cup semifinal since 1998. loads of reaction from the players on social media. jesse lingard's been very active online during the world cup. after the colombia win in the last 16, he posted a picture of himself on the phone telling his mum that he'll be staying in russia a while longer. and after the win over sweden, he shared this v

england fans, here we go. has has your time loves. england fans, here we go. has has yourtime in loves. england fans, here we go. has has your time in russia been? # football's coming home! which spun into some england fans. how was it? it felt good to be among england fans. there weren't enough this year. walking near red square, we then bump into some colombian fans, and so they then throw on their own colombia shirts. you don't get this sort of dancing with the english fans. you get salsa, merengue. having brought both england and colombia shirts, whoever wins, they will have the white shirt to wear the next day. ashley john—ba ptiste reporting there from moscow. time for a look at the weather with ben rich. plenty will be watching the match on big screens, looking for a glorious evening for it. that is the way to do it because things look very pleasa nt do it because things look very pleasant if you like warmth and sunshine as we go into the evening across sunshine as we go into the evening a cross m ost sunshine as we go into the evening across most par

how will england prepare for it? the student —— the same as they do for any other team, they do their homework, they will set up in training and play how they would play but they will have their tactics audit. a lot has been made about the england short corner routines and the fact that they're not going to plan. why are they so important? there a chance to get a set piece, when you have any numerical advantage towards the goal. it is a big thing for hockey to try to win multi—corners and the stats have suggested that by getting penalty corners you should be looking for a one in three conversion ratio. england are struggling with that as our other nations this tournament and we will be looking to improve on those stats. what is going wrong for england? it isjust not quite clicking, only by margins butjust looking for those final connections. england were one of the favourites coming into the tournament, they're not hitting top gear yet, is that down to the nerves? i think it is a slow burner, every game they ha

i do think that england although played against belgium in the first group hasn't had that true test yet whereas colombia you know we've had two somewhat you know major test japan losing and then poland so i think we have that better preparation in terms of game play but it's going to be a very very close game and i think set pieces will be a key factor both sides you know england side and colombia side as we've had scored two or three goals on set pieces with getting enough so i'm going with a long get to one thousand straws for joining me by the best team win. they gave us national camera. roughly once they showed some new play you for the. future uncool videos during the world cup and someone with the broccoli strung out . lying down more on string i don't really don't t.v. in twenty forty you know bloody revolution two to clear the demonstrations going from being relatively peaceful political protests to be increasingly violent revolution is always spontaneous or is it still war here i mean your list with video at three in the. school in the middle of the former ukrainian preside

the midlands northern england. eastern scotland holding onto some brightness but western scotland, northern ireland more in the way of cloud, this is how it will look in moscow, we suspect. diving underneath the clouds to find the stadium, you can see some afternoon showers, which will tend to fizzle away by the time the match begins and we will see some clear spells to figure through to full—time. during this evening and tonight, it is a mixture of clear spells and patchy cloud, still potentially one or two showers, more cloud generally for northern ireland and scotland, still the odd spot of rain, temperatures not falling far, 13 to 17 degrees. into tomorrow, pretty mixed fare across scotland, particularly the northern half. more in the way of cloud, the odd spot of rain still limping slowly eastwards, quite a loss of cloud through northern ireland. sunny spells, but that could spawn some showers, some heavy ones across south—west scotland. the showers become if anything more widespread. they will still be hi

england's dream is over. the team arrived here in russia more than a month ago with little expectation resting on their shoulders, but made it to the night's semifinal carrying a nation's dream with them. in the end, it wasn't to be. that is all from us. in moscow we will leave you tonight, with a look back on england'sjourney... music: don't let me down by the chainsmokers # i need you, i need you, i need you right now # yeah, i need you right now # so don't let me, don't let me, don't let me down # i think i'm losing my mind now # it's in my head, darling i hope # that you'll be here, when i need you the most # so don't let me, don't let me, don't let me down # don't let me down # oh, i think i'm losing my mind now, yeah, yeah, yeah # i need you, i need you, i need you right now # yeah, i need you right now # so don't let me, don't let me, don't let me down # i think i'm losing my mind now # don't let me down hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm olly foster. live in moscow. this is sportsday and the world cu

that culture of openness has re—established a connection between england fans, the media and the england team. gareth southgate has managed at the under 21 level, so there is a continuity with the players in the senior team and it has been a perfect storm that has come together at the right time because this is the most open world cup ever to win and there will be a new name on the trophy this season. there is every expectation it could possibly be england and they will have owned it. they will have done a superbjob. have owned it. they will have done a superb job. darren lewis, thank you. staying with the world cup. more than 22 years after it was first released, it's back... #is # is coming home. # is coming home. # it's coming home. # it's coming home. # football is coming home. footall anthem three lions has topped the charts following england's quarter final win against sweden. the track, by comedians frank skinner and david baddiel with the lightning seeds, was first released to accompany euro 96 which was held in england. three lions climbed a huge 32 places in the vodafone big to

england beat sweden 2—0. in the other game, the hosts — russia — went out to croatia a—3 in a penalty shoot—out. england will play croatia on wednesday. the other semi—final will pit france against belgium. north korea has announced that it may abandon plans to give up its nuclear technology if the united states continues to demand unilateral denuclearisation by pyongyang. a government spokesman said the stance taken by us negotiators was gangster—like. he said both sides should take steps at the same time. the 12 boys trapped in a flooded cave system in thailand have sent handwritten letters to their families, to reassure them that they are well. their football coach, who is with them, also sent a note apologising to their parents. the team were cut off when exploring the cave two weeks ago. as the first week of wimbledon draws to a close, britain's number one, kyle edmund, has been knocked out.

it's a story repeated across england. subsidy is cut, fares rise, passenger numbers fall, routes become uneconomic. thousands of services have been reduced or scrapped, with devastating consequences for many people on low incomes. the cost and unreliability of public transport has changed the thinking of the groups which calculate the minimum income standard used by government to set the living wage. back in 2008, a single person was allotted £13.50 a week for bus fares. now, they're deemed to need £24 for bus fares, £3 towards the occasional rail trip, and £10 a week for taxis. you've been listening to the groups as they decide what people should have as a basic minimum. what were they saying about transport? tra nsport‘s absolutely key. people are still saying public transport is how you would meet the majority of your needs asa minimum. however, that's becoming more and more difficult and the shortfall between what you need and what you are able to get at with a bus pass is growing, so people are having to supple

england savoured victory in moscow last week. now they're back in town and determined to stick around for sunday's final. # world in motion... # it's now 28 years since new order's world cup anthem, world in motion. back in 1990, croatia didn't even exist as a country. it's an entire generation since gazza's tears, lineker‘s worry and england's defeat to west germany. it's even longer, though, since england got their hands on the prize. it's 52 years since england last won the world cup. it's still gleaming, as are the current team's hopes. gareth southgate wants his players to make their own history

england, uk. 0h! where you come from? england, uk. oh! wow! you could see the water there is the boys and their coach we re there is the boys and their coach were perched on the shelf, effectively. as we've just heard, the first voice the 12 young thai footballers and their coach heard after nine days trapped in caves was that of british diverjohn volanthen. he was with fellow brit rick stanton. they'd been called in by the thai authorities along with another british caving expert, robert harper. the trio arrived in thailand three days after the football team went missing. they're among more than a thousand people involved in the operation, from all over the world. a short while ago, i spoke to our correspondent at the scene, howard johnson, about how despite the jubilation at finding the boys and their coach, it is only the beginning of this huge rescue operation. it's a huge task ahead. what we're seeing this morning is the thai navy divers down there, working with the army, working with the huge international team, including these two briti

commentator: england win! england comfortably sealing their biggest victory for years and with it their first semi—finalfor a generation. gareth southgate becoming just the third manager of his country to achieve such a feat. i can't speak highly enough of the whole squad and the whole group of staff because it is so united and their level of work has been great and their commitment to each other. you don't get through with just 11 players. i hope everyone enjoys tonight because not very often, as we know, that it's happened. we're enjoying it, i know the fans here are enjoying it. fans back home, i'm sure, will see us on video tonight and be enjoying it, so, we just gotta keep doing what we're doing and make the country proud. england's fans have grown used to disappointment at major tournaments but not here, not today and not with this remarkable young team ensuring their journey in russia continues. southgate's been manager from the 21's so a lot of the players have known him for a long time so they have

in england these days. a few people have been telling me over the years and then finally, mr southgate, or gareth, has got into this new position where he's just delighting the whole country. i thought, "well, why not wear the waistcoat and the tie and have a bit of fun?" i was going to say, you are working the look. it is an extremely popular look. apparently these waistcoats are really taking off. yeah, they are selling. i mean, i had to go to a few different branches of that particular department store to go and find one but yeah, i mean, he's got a new sartorial elegance, who would have thought? you don't have the message embroidered just yet but tell me about the team, the performance. are you fancying england's chances now, your team perhaps to bring the trophy? well after that iceland game, when we lost a couple of years ago, who would have thought we would be in this position? he's managed to turn it around and the country is going bonkers for it and he's doing some wonderful things, isn't he? he's

it's not that england team, it is that england team, the 1966 world cup winning england team. the slight it could have been taken yesterday but that's the picture. i love our frans in his tracksuit with his lace up frans in his tracksuit with his lace up boots on that look like they weigha up boots on that look like they weigh a ton. i think that's my favourite picture in the papers —— alf ramsey. if anyone is confused about how to handle tonight, what the words are for all the songs, the mirrorare very the words are for all the songs, the mirror are very kindly printed the lyrics. the lyrics are very complicated, aren't they? for anyone who is confused, the lyrics are there. is there any business news? 30 million people will be watching tonight, so thatis people will be watching tonight, so that is a lot of people, a lot of attention, sponsorship, advertising, all that kind of stuff. supermarkets have said if england wins at aldi, lidl and iceland they are going to close early. this is an interesting one. a slightly more negative note to end on, but it puts all of the m&s

the england fa ns against england fans but the england fans are big on dreams. they are optimistic about this team and about england's chances. the first time england's chances. the first time england hope to get to a quarterfinal in 12 years, but talking to the fans you get the impression that they not only hope but do think england can do it. talking to the colombian fans, they are very optimistic as well about their chances. there is a lot riding on this for both sides and it is the colombians who have been loudest but i have seen england france —— england flags across the country, from gillingham to leeds and wolverhampton, and they are all hoping england can live up to this expectation. thank you, sarah rainsford. all eyes tonight will be on england's captain harry kane — the tottenham striker is already the leading goal—scorer at the tournament. he's come a long way since his days at school in essex. andy swiss has been to chingford to hear how kane is inspiring a new generation of young fans. skipper, scorer, superstar. and it is in from harry kan

i know will be rooting for england! so donald trump could've gone to brussels and said look what i have achieved, i have got everyone to increase their spending, which he has, by being tough on nato members but instead had this extraordinary spectacle of the american president effectively saying what good is this alliance? he has perfected i think the art of the insult, not the art of the deal and his diplomacy is by humiliation, i think it is important to tell european allies who have not done enough, not meeting your obligation and we need this organisation, it remains vital. but instead he publicly demean the various leaders of the nato alliance, undercutting it and the only person to cheer about this is vladimir putin. i'm sure he's raking up vladimir putin. i'm sure he's raking up in the vodka today as we speak because he has had the goal of undermining the eu, undermining nato, coming back onto the playing field as a leader. he is now in syria and trying to bring russian influence back. he wants to reconstitute th
