plus is also an england record. as far as the rest of the world is concerned only five batsmen in history have scored more runs in their careers than alastair cook — and he could even move up a place with a couple of big scores in the final test of the series against india at the oval. and it's cook's massive knocks at key points in england history that make him stand out. the essex batsman announced himself as a 21—year—old on england's tour of india in 2006 when he scored 104 not out on his debut, the start of an formidable opening partnership for england with andrew strauss. the 2010/11 ashes series will perhaps go down as cook's finest. it's still england's only series win in australia over the last 30 years — cook scored more than 700 runs in the series. and his highest career test score was in helping england to an innings victory over india in 2011. they are sporting memories built on patience and for england that makes him so difficult to replace. i think he's a dying breed, sadly, the test player th

england's time has come. their knockout tie against columbia is under half an hour away, we'll be live at the stadium shortly. we have played in a certain style here. we have to continue that on balance that with making good decisions. sweden are waiting in the quarterfinals for the winners of tonight's match, that's after they beat the swiss. i'm holly hamilton, live from day two of wimbledon. where we've had the best of british asjohanna konta dug deep to claim victory in her opening match. and the men's british number one is also through — kyle edmund advancing to the second round with an impressive start to his wimbledon campaign. good evening — welcome to moscow. what drama we have seen over the round of 16, france 4, argentina 3, those penalty shootouts on sunday, russia beating spain, belgium's comeback and now what will england/colombia deliver here in the capital? the last tie in the round. up to 6,000 england fans are in the city, around 3,000 officially with tickets — will tonight be the nigh

of 150 plus, also an england record. as far as the rest of the world is concerned, only five have scored more runs than alistair cook and he could move up another place with a couple of big scores in the final test of the series against india at the oval. and it is cook's massive knocks at key points in england history that make him stand out, the essex man brought into the team at 21 on the tour of india brought into the team at 21 on the tourof india in brought into the team at 21 on the tour of india in 2006 when he scored 104 not out on debut and at the start of a formidable opening partnership for england with andrew strauss at the top of the order. the 2010-11 strauss at the top of the order. the 2010—11 ashes series will go down as cook's greatest, england's only series win in australia over the course of the last 30 years and cook scored 700 runs in that series, and his highest career test school was in england's massive win over india in 2011 at edgbaston, these are sporting memories that have been built on pa

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

it couldn't be clearerfor england. set the scene for us. it couldn't be clearer for england. it is a winner ta kes all clearer for england. it is a winner takes all at wembley later. victory for england would see them reach the semifinals of the nation ‘s league, a chance to challenge the silverware in portugal next summer. defeat means they would be relegated to the second tier of the competition. inaudible in light of the progress they have made in this competition following that semifinal defeat to croatia last summer. it provided them with an opportunity to test themselves against some of the wild's best, as witnessed with that impressive victory against spain. gareth southgate has made some tactical changes and is provided some of the younger players he's brought into the squad a chance to challenge themselves... solely for the quality of the line tojohn watson at wembley. —— sorry. some of britain's biggest companies are urging the government to honour a promise to give mental health in the workplace the same status as physical health. executives from 50 companies

england well on top then, and the former england international lydia greenway told my colleague mike bushell that she's been impressed with the way that england have kep their focus. credit to them as well because they have already won the series and for them to go out and just show that the ruthlessness and going on for the whitewash i think is really pleasing to see and everybody has chipped in as well which i think is really promising for this team. jennings reminded us all how important fielding can be, it can turn a match. that sharpness is incredible. it is. i'm not sure it is one of those positions which people are lining up to do but the thing is that he been such a good job now and i think he has made his own. some of those catches as much as when you watch it on the tv you might think they look simple, they are really tough. must also pay tribute to an amazing best ever test figure for adil rashid. i think the conditions there suit the spinners, a bit slower and take a lot a turn. you still have to control that he has in the variation at the right time sort of led to him pi

i do not think there has been any expectation on england for a time, i'io expectation on england for a time, 110 one expectation on england for a time, no one expected us to win it. having said that we expected to beat iceland in the last european championships, but we have to do better and that should not be difficult. ijust better and that should not be difficult. i just want better and that should not be difficult. ijust want to see the players enjoying it, they may never again play in a world cup so enjoy it and if they do not win, then at least if you go home saying you know what, we tried, we gave everything and that as i ink what the english fans want. i think gareth has made all the right decisions and done everything in a sensible way. it has been cool and calm the way he had to leave out wayne rooney, the way he named his squad quickly the way he has named his formation so as said everything is going really well in preparation for top now it is over to the games and we know that that can change but let's keep our fingers crossed that at least we can have something to shout

come on, england. the british beer and pub association believes £24 million will be pumped into the economy. this man has never sold so many flags so quickly. this year, everything has gone and we had to reorder from suppliers. it'll be a good year. a pub down the road showing the game? as soon as they score, you hear a scream, i'll be looking through the window. a nation prepares. temperatures are high. so, too, are hopes and expectations. tim muffett, bbc news. a nation prepares. our moscow correspondent, sarah rainsford, is in samara where the match takes place. you are on the beach. you said you wa nted you are on the beach. you said you wanted to see more of samara. we have taken it to the beach. this is a river, not the ocean. inflows through here. this is the spot where locals and football fans have gotten ready for the match by enjoying themselves. this is where the fans have in enjoying the sunshine and the other speciality, the local beer. there is a famous rare. people are going through and

but england have enough. the country's expected to come to a standstill as millions of people watch the game in pubs and on big screens up and down the country. the boys trapped in a cave in thailand write letters telling their parents they are strong and not to worry. police investigating the poisoning of a couple in wiltshire warn the operation will take months to complete. and coming up... join me and a panel of guests on dateline london, we will be discussing that meeting on brexit and we look ahead to donald trump was mac uk visit. —— donald trump was mac uk visit. —— donald trump's uk visit. hello, a very good morning to you. welcome to bbc news. theresa may has warned her cabinet that she'll no longer tolerate public dissent over brexit following their collective agreement to back her plan for britain's future relationship with the eu. it follows a marathon 12 hour meeting of the cabinet at chequers yesterday, where mrs may told ministers it was their ‘duty‘ to agree a blueprint for brexit.

the rest of england and for wales, with low— pressure england and for wales, with low—pressure close by, will have some showers from time to time. would be quite heavy with the freshening southeasterly wind as well. today we have had quite a big range of temperatures. tomorrow we are alla range of temperatures. tomorrow we are all a bit closer together. and now their day in scotland. the little bit cooler though, the further south you are. this is bbc news. our latest headlines: home secretary amber rudd has chaired a meeting of the government's cobra committee and says police have identified more than 200 witnesses in the investigation into the poisoning of a former russian spy and his daughter. this investigation is focused on making sure that we keep people safe asa making sure that we keep people safe as a priority. that is what the cobra meeting was about. and also making sure we collect all cobra meeting was about. and also making sure we collect all the evidence, so when it comes to attribution, we will be absolutely clear where it should lead. no more changes to exams and a r

are discussing tonight england's dominance in the pool. — might it has been a great night for england's swimmers. hannah miley was bidding to become the first scottish woman to become the first scottish woman to win three consecutive gold medals in the same event but aimee willmott would have none of it. miley was leading for most of the 400 women's individual medley final but the englishwoman moved up a gear to take her first international gold. commentator: aimee willmott is going to win. gold for england. goodness me, that's incredible. i did not see that coming. what a fantastic second 100 metres. just believe that this could be time, maybe. wejust swum the race, i am sure it was a battle between me and hannah and the crowd loved it. it's so nice to finally get a gold medal. another scottish defending champion was favoured the men's 200 metres final. ross set the fastest time in qualifying but was also eclipsed as james wilby of england finished first. australia got the first two places in the men's 400 metres freestyle, james gulliver england got bronze behind mike horton and jack

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

two changes for england. scotla nd afternoon. two changes for england. scotland making six after being overrun on that opening weekend as they take on france. i am delighted to say we are joined by two world cup winners this evening. thanks very much indeed to you both. very impressive from wales. yes, and expected, i think. very impressive from wales. yes, and expected, ithink. scotland very impressive from wales. yes, and expected, i think. scotland will be disappointed. i think it will be a big game tomorrow. and leigh halfpenny as well impressive. he was instrumental to that success which of course has been built on the scarlets team. ten of those scarlets players forming the bedrock of this welsh team. i think he has been criticised of rate for not showing the attacking side of his game but going back to scarlets, he has really got back in the groove and it is great to see him scoring tries. george north is back on the bench for wales. he will bring experience to that welsh team as well. yes, massively. he scored a try against ha rlequins massively.

midlands and southern england. the showers and thunderstorms capable of bringing half a month's worth of rain in an hour so the risk of localised flooding away from the showers, it will feel warmer. you're watching beyond 100 days. donald trump is on his way to blenheim palace for a gala dinner with the prime minister — hours after attacking her brexit plan. not perhaps the most ausipicious start to a two day visit that will test the special relationship. the president arrived in london at lunchtime — and went straight to the us ambassador‘s residence in central london. despite plans for mass protests he says he's confident of a warm reception. the protests but i believe the people in the uk, they like me a lot. he'll shortly be on his way here, to blenheim palace. also on the programme

we are but england's base. they are backin we are but england's base. they are back in training and the focus switches to sweden. a major incident is declared in amesbury. two people are critically ill after being exposed to an unknown substance. police are searching the home of a nurse who's being held

and england expects. and gerryjackson is in newcastle for us where england fans are watching at the big screen. it is hot in nizhny novgorod, how hot is it in newcastle? well, they're saying around 23 degrees. i wouldn't be surprised if it is hotter here. if an england goal goes in here, 1800 will erupt withjoe. this is what they have waited four yea rs this is what they have waited four years for. when the fans gathered for the national anthem, they all stood up and all sang. i have never seen anything like it outside a stadium. they have all paid for a ticket to watch this game and england expects. what is, when you have been talking to the fan, they're optimistic, but what kind of scoreline are they expect something well, remember, these are england fa ns m ost well, remember, these are england fans most of them are wearing england shirts. they know that we didn't get beyond the group stage in the last world cup and we got knocked out of euro 2016 by iceland. but this is not the day to dwell on things

doesn't these two england players because eddie jones doesn't take these two england players because eddiejones doesn't take any rubbish? eddie jones is on a brief to win the world cup next year. it could start with danny cipriani, eddiejones would not have liked to see one of his plays with his picture all over the front pages. however, if eddie jones picture all over the front pages. however, if eddiejones feels danny cipriani's form means he will improve the england team in november and that he is the number—1 fly half, he will pick him for november. he at least has the chance to perform on the pitch. ashton doesn't have that opportunity. he needed to hit the ground running on his return from france. so too only to be available in october with two challenge cup games before the n series, he's up against it. i am struggling to see how can force his way in. thank you very much, chris. we are moving on to cricket now. england have madejust one change to the side who lost so spectacularly to india in the third test — they've recalled batsmanjames vince as cover forjohnny bairstow

but this england team is very new, marcus ratchford was eight last time they won an england match in 2006. —— last time they won and knockout match. you can see today they are very chilled ahead of this game, and they spoke about writing their own history, leaving those failures behind. let's have a look at the stadium. 43,000 seats. 3000 england fa ns stadium. 43,000 seats. 3000 england fans here tonight officially, but with up to 6000 expected in moscow, and they will find themselves outnumbered by the very loud colombian fans who are hoping to get to their second consecutive quarterfinal at the world cup. natalie, thank you forjoining us. from moscow. here are today's fixtures. sweden will play switzerland and the other last 16 tie, then england against colombia at 7pm, with full commentary on five live. both british number one's are wimbledon today. it has been great forjoanna contact. she has made the start she wanted to against the russian earlier today. it just start she wanted to against the russian earlier today. itjust ended a few minutes ago. but she did not make it ea

it should turn to rain across north—west england, wales on south—west england. the best of the weather on saturday into the afternoon in scotla nd saturday into the afternoon in scotland as the rain clears, we should see sunny spells. not quite as cold, 7—10d, but i'm sure under the rain and wind it's not going to feel great. the rain clears again, toa feel great. the rain clears again, to a north—westerly, driving further snow showers for the second half of the weekend. some of these could settle at lower levels. it really does look as though we're heading for quite a wintry flavour to the weekend. the cold theme continues with rain and snow and gales at times. hello. you're watching afternoon live. today at 4... interest rates on hold but a warning from the bank of england that rise are coming. but how fast? in a gradual process but somewhat earlier and somewhat to a greater extent then we had thought in november. higher council tax bills on the way in most of england, as local authorities struggle to make ends meet. stranded in hospital corridors. new fig

and ashwin, 68—1 for england. you rememberjoe route the captain of england saying yesterday he felt 100 for alistair cook was written in the stars and that is how he started his england career, with 100 against india. early days and seems up 100 against india. early days and seems up for it as we speak here. joe wilson live at the oval. what a story would be if he can do that. mo farah will be going for a fifth win in the great north run on sunday. now dedicated solely to road racing, the four—time olympic champion believes the race in newcastle will act as ideal preparation for next months chicago marathon. i feel good. ifeel good. training has been going pretty well. i have been in arizona training hard with my coach gary and things are going well enough. for me it is just things are going well enough. for me it isjust going things are going well enough. for me it is just going to be tough, things are going well enough. for me it isjust going to be tough, as well as testing myself to see what i am, and asking

and former england defender lindsey johnson who played for england 43 times. before that gareth southgate has said that england — the country as opposed to the team — has been a bit lost with its identity recently and this team, is the best representation of modern england. most have plied their trade in smaller clubs, and more than half of the squad are from in and around the manchester area. here‘s chi chi izundu. gareth southgate has dubbed them the most diverse team england has ever taken to a world cup. 13 of the 23 members of the england squad actually come from within 50 miles of manchester city centre so it‘s no wonder that pride in this area is particularly high. if you‘re good, you‘re good. if you‘re not good, you‘re not good. so it doesn‘t matter whether you‘re white, black, green, it doesn‘t matter, we are all human beings. social media's got something to do with it as well because all these players have active twitter accounts and stuff and they playjokes on each other and you feel like you're a bit closer to them. rashford c

the balance in the final test between england and india has tipped firmly england's way... india closed day two at the oval — 174—6 — trailing by 158 runs and crucially — their captain virat kholi is out... ben stokes got kholi but two of the other indian wickets were taken byjames anderson — taking his test tally to 561 — just two off the all time record as a fast bowler. patrick gearey reports on another fascinating day's play between these two sides. saturday morning in south london, england in an oval—shaped hole. here is the man to dig them out of it, jos buttler, batting on his birthday, guiding england from below 200 to above 300 with care and increasing flair. in the end, he made 89, more even than alastair cook yesterday. the buttler outscoring the master as england finished on 332. stirring stuff. nowjoe root asked his bowlers to carry the charge. stuart broad went into the breach and into the pads. shikhar dhawan, lbw for three. now india under pressure. kl rahul released a valve. the batsman who's struggled for runs this series decided there was li

if i was in england's position i would have wanted him to play. once again today stokes looked relaxed. posing for photos with the fans, but he knows come tomorrow all eyes will be on his cricketing comeback. andy swiss, bbc news. well, ben stokes will have a new team—mate at durham for next season, another man who has recently been accused of bringing the game into disrepute. cameron bancroft is coming to england. joe lynskey can tell us more. hugh, thank you, yes. these are the images you will remember from six months ago. the brightest star is breaking down in a press conference. they're the images that will stay with australian cricket fans for a lifetime. all because of the ball—tampering scandal which happened in a match against south africa in march. the man who carried out the act of putting sandpaper on the ball was cameron bancroft — the youngest of the three was given a nine—month ban, three months less than the other two senior players who were deemed to have instigated the plot. well, today durham announced they were prepared

the next time england play it'll count... but who will start their first world cup match against tunisia? we find out which decisions might be keeping gareth southgate up at night. well, future england teams will benefit from a winter break after the premier league agrees to put one in place from the 2019—2020 season onwards. just one win away from french open title number 11. rafael nadal has never lost a semi final at roland garros. and juan martin del potro couldn't stop him today either. and how much have you missed him? tyson fury, with his camouflage pants and heavyweight strength, gets ready to return to the ring. hello and welcome to sportsday, i'm hugh ferris. welcome to sportsday. thanks forjoining us. so the warm ups are done and dusted. the next we'll see of england is at the world cup. and if you were gareth southgate, i wonder if your mind was changed by an impressive win over costa rica. rashford or sterling up front? cahill or maguire in defence? butland or pickford in goal? just some of the decisions that m

northwest england probably staying mainly dry across scotland and the east of england. look at these temperatures, this is what you expect by day at this time of the year. a very mild night as we go into thursday. but thursday's going to be a transition day, we have not one but two fronts working their way across england. patches of early—morning rain in south—west england. behind it, some sunshine for a time. more rain arriving into south—west england, wales, northern ireland, western scotland. it will eventually push its way up into the midlands and north—west england. ahead of this, we've still got some warmth across east anglia, south—east england. 21 or 22 celsius here. starting to see something cooler further west. then some very turbulent weather potentially on friday. a deep area of low pressure, tightly packed isoba rs, so gales and heavy rain. we've got multiple heavy warnings in place at the moment. that will be pushing its way across the uk, bringing heavy rain into western scotland, northern ireland, wales and south—west england. still very wind

memories for england of 1998. it might not quite be as straightforward 20 years on, because colombia are very dangerous, a very talented team with some very good players. we can go live now to our correspondent david ornstein, who is in repino, where england are based for the tournament. it looks glorious with the waves lapping on the rocks behind you. it will be interesting if the mood in the camp will be different now they have lost the game. that's right, mike. welcome back to repino, on the gulf of finland. england's race is close to hear, and they arrived back about 4am this morning local time, 2am in the uk. today there will be no training session. they willjust be recuperating at the team hotel. they will train properly on saturday and sunday. a light session on monday morning before flying over the moscow and that game, of course, on tuesday. it will be interesting to see how england get on. it is potentially the tougher opposition that they could have faced in the last 16, but potentially a smoother route

england beat croatia at wembley. joe root wants england to "set the trend" after a first series win in sri lanka in 17 years. and novak djokovic is bidding for a record—equalling sixth title at the atp finals in london. hello and welcome to sportsday. thanks forjoining us. they left it late but england got their revenge on the team that knocked them out of the world cup. gareth southgate‘s men were a goal down to croatia at wembley and looking like being relegated from the elite group of the nations league, but two goals from jesse lingard and harry kane in the final 12 minutes of the match saw them win 2—1, and with it book their place in next year's finals. john watson was watching the drama unfold at wembley. john — a great comeback from england. yeah, what a comeback indeed, as you say. it was clear at the start of the day what england had to do a commoner permutations they had, england had to win to book their place in the semifinals in portugal next summer. blues and they would have been relegated into

matches england were out. their fans should not get too carried away or excited just yet. it is only a start, it was just a poor panama side they demolished today, of course. there will be harder challenges and future, not least a good belgian side. the outcome of that match will determine who gareth southgate's side meets in the knockout stages. the footballing world have sat up and taken notice of that performance, and england should not fear anybody right now. new measures to tackle child obesity in england have been announced by the government, including plans to ban shops displaying unhealthy snacks at the checkout and tighter restrictions on television advertising. the health secretary says the cost of obesity is too great to ignore — but campaigners say the new proposals don't go far enough. here's our health editor hugh pym. looking after the health of future generations. that is the aim of the government's plan. this class is run bya government's plan. this class is run by a healthy lifestyle initia

the number of england fa ns just england. the number of england fans has been growing but there are fa ns fans has been growing but there are fans from russia, who have painted the english flag on their faces, plenty of sweden supporters here as well. the swedish supporters are optimistic about this game, they know they are the underdogs to some extent but they are hopeful that they could be the ones that bring they could be the ones that bring the trophy home. english fans are telling me the opposite, convinced that england can make it happen today. the fans here have come from bristol. you say you have been following england through this tournament but flying back and forwards. you must really want to see england succeed? definitely, it has cost a fortune but hopefully it will be worth it in the end. how has the atmosphere been? it has been quiet today, the quite so far for england fans. but i imagine as soon as we get in there and the band starts going it will be amazing. you have made it as far as the quarterfinal support

that is what england had done. the england team are heading to colombo this evening and next odi is on tuesday, remains to be seen if we will need our umbrellas for that one as well. i bet they will. england winning that series. we will say a nice warm studio. also coming up in the programme... —— state and a nice warm studio. after a little bit of time out jadejones has her sights set on another olympic gold in tokyo. thing here in england, it is kind of reminded me why i used to win. —— reminding me. rugby union now and danny cipriani rounded off a bad week by getting sent off during gloucester‘s champions cup defeat against munster at thomond park. he was left out of the england squad a couple of days ago, and his high tackle meant his teamates had to play for over half the match with 14 men. with all the details and some of the days other results in europe, here's clare thornton. despite the warm irish hospitality, thomond park has proven to be one of the least welcoming grinds for positing sides in e

england's captain has been a shining star so far england's captain has been a shining starso far in england's captain has been a shining star so far in russia and against columbia in the last 16, harry kane was to live is worth once again. the feisty ill tempered match saw the referee repeatedly going into his pocket for the yellow card. england dominated and after the break, harry kane's work rate saw him own penalty, wrestled down by carlos sanchez. he stepped up to slot his sixth goal. it was a lead that was kept largely comfortable. it remained 1—1 after extra time so it was another last 16 penalty shootout. when colombian carlos backer had his spots saved byjordan pickford, it was left to eric dier to win on penalties. sweet dreams are made of this. the first world cup quarterfinalfor 2a are made of this. the first world cup quarterfinal for 2h years. an untidy tie in st petersburg saw a decisive blow mid— rate through the second half. a 1—0 win over switzerland means they look forward to the last date for the first time since 1994 and that meeting with england. sweden is celebrati

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

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

what he made of england? it is two extremely tough tools over the winter they have just had. tough tools over the winter they havejust had. any tough tools over the winter they have just had. any ashes series is was difficult, and especially in their backyard, it was good to be challenging. it was quite a tough winterfor challenging. it was quite a tough winter for them, challenging. it was quite a tough winterfor them, but challenging. it was quite a tough winter for them, but looking forward to the home season now, england have had quite a strong home series for a few years now, so hopefully they can continue doing that. the sport of kings is a lavish time, but which one actually deserves it? prince william is the president of the football association, prince harry loves rug by, football association, prince harry loves rugby, and the of wales has a punch on for apollo, and the queen herself loves horse racing. but the a nswer herself loves horse racing. but the answer is real tennis. what exactly is it? tom

well, england arrived home at their baysin well, england arrived home at their bays in the early hours of this morning. they are near st petersburg and they have that victory against tunisia in the bag. they left it late and it took to later in the game for a fresh impetus to come in, marcus rashford coming off michael the bench to provide it. are sports editor has been talking to him. england returning to their repino training base this morning, their world cup campaign up and running. they may have left it late but harry kane's dramatic stoppage time header in volgograd last night secured a first opening—match victory at the tournament since 2006. substitute marcus rashford had helped regain the initiative for england when he came on in the second half. and today the manchester united striker told me just how much the result meant. it's unbelievable and i think when you score, there's nothing that really matches scoring a late winner. i think the fans all can sense that and we definitely sense that on the pitch. england were back training today, knowing that a win against panama in

david 0rnstein is at the england team camp. it should be all calm, with that time between matches, gareth southgate's dislocated shoulder, and we'll get onto the leaked team sheet, but the fa also having to deal with this investigation after the offensive behaviour after what seems to be some of their fans around that tunisia game. a video emerged in the aftermath of that game, allegedly emanating from a volgograd bar. that was the host city of that match. it was of a small number of england supporters making a fancy chance, idlib salutes and anti—semitic wording. —— nazi salutes. the fa released a statement from a spokesperson today strongly condemning the actions of the people in these videos, describing it as disgraceful conduct that doesn't represent the values of the majority of england supporters supporting the tea m of england supporters supporting the team in russia. they also said they and the uk police are investigating. of course, the in russia, orfans can be identified by fan id, needed to enter the country, s

because england goalkeeper jordan pickford with any longer because england goalkeeperjordan pickford with a heroic save that meant it all went down to eric dier, the tottenham hotspur midfielder with england's last penalty. both sides had missed one coming he kept his nerve, stepped up, and as you can see, he made no mistake with a decisive penalty. england winning 4—3 on penalties after the game ended after extra time 1—1. england had to dig so extra time 1—1. england had to dig so deep having conceded a last—gasp equaliser by colombia. they had all the momentum. it felt like a home match for colombia with very few england fancier. tonight, as we said earlier, we discovered how much metal this young england team had. it was hard to assess them coming into this match. they had won their first two games against pretty average opposition in tunisia and panama, but it was a weakened team against belgium. this was the first real challenge for the front—line players who had plenty of rest, were injury free. they thought they had enoughin injury free. they thought they had enough

at least england of what it wants so. the good news for belgium is that whatever happens in the match between them they shouldn't have too much trouble the other side's in group g. two countries who have never made it past the group stage at a world cup in fact have never even qualified for a world cup of. a like goal from roman torres against costa rica in the final qualifier secured panama's place at their maiden world. it was a huge moment for the nation finally qualifying for the world cup the eleventh attempt that goes into perspective but since then their preparations have been going well. they lost two recent friendlies against denmark in switzerland conceding seven and scoring. anything can happen in football but panama winning again at russia twenty eight would be a giant achievement and the same could be said that you know. the country might be set for its fifth appearance at a world cup but the team has only once in twelve games. it is very first world cup match against mexico way back in one thousand nine hund

england's new—look defence gave them a helping hand. england had their chances. david de gea's save stopped a sure—fire equaliser. but excitement soon gave way to concern. a horrible clash turning luke shaw's first england start in three years into a night to forget. he is ok but in the nine minutes added for the injury, england thought they had the equaliser. danny welbeck! inexplicably, the referee ruled it out for a foul. but as controversy raged, the fact remains, england still can't beat the big boys. summer flings don't mean a thing if the romance doesn't continue. england have now lost three consecutive matches for the first time in 30 years. reality check time. natalie pirks, bbc news, wembley. northern ireland's nations league campaign also started with defeat to bosnia—herzegovina. despite dominating for most of the match at windsor park, they fell behind in the first half, haris duljevic the scorer. bosnia then scored again, before a late consoloation from substitute will grigg but it stayed 2—1 and northern ireland are bottom of their group. —

a big win for england, jo? england was like world cup campaign continues after a comfortable victory here in front of another sell—out cloud described, they found themselves having to win this last crossover to reject, or they would have gone home. sophie brey settled the nerves early on with her first goal of the world cup, her initial effort was well saved, but she made sure from the second attempt. england look to build on that lead, and well chances came, it looked like it would be the same old story that could make them count. but time ticking away, korea went for broke, sacrificing their keeper for an extra outfield player anna anna came close to paying off. then came the counterattack, housley with a finish to finally put the result out of sight, and round off england's best performance of the world cup so far. great performance for england tonight, celebrations will not last long as up on thursday, in the quarterfinals, the defending champions the netherlands come up. they've scored 60 —— 26 goals

how are the england tea m arrived at last. how are the england team doing in terms of settling in? very well, victoria. good morning. happy world cup day. over the next month we will see 32 teams battle it out in the biggest sporting tournament in the world. the likes of lionel messi and cristiano ronaldo are on show and despite england taking one of their youngest ever squads to a world cup, there is a lot of optimism around gareth southgate's side as they edge towards their opening match on monday. the england squad trained at their base in repino for the first time yesterday — an open session watched by the media and around 400 local schoolchildren as well as fans. the small village becoming a hive of activity upon england's arrival but there are questions over how much there will be for the players to do in the village. so far they have no complaints. we've got a nice little basketball net set up. we have a golf simulator. we have got uno cards. we all play a lot of uno. general cards, ping—pong is, at snooker. we are spoiled. we have got everything. there is no reason to b

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

it is a situation england will be concerned about. kohli kept going and although he was offered a chance in the nervous 90s, went to a century, his fourth slowest in his career which shows how he has adapted to the pace of the game. he's an amazing form. eventually chris woakes got him in an lbw. then they had to score runs as quickly as they could to get the india lead up above 500 and that would really worry england. then he had to pick his moment and decide when he wanted to declare which he did at 20 to six which gave england a nasty session in the evening to get through. that was a difficult situation for them to get through. jennings and cook at the crease. england 23 for no wicket after that declaration at the close and that is at least something for them to cling to what they are right up against it in this match. the bit more about that because what hope if any can england take from the current situation? it's difficult. at least we have got through that session, that will be a plus. no opening batsmen monster go out there wi
