successful predecessor as british number one considers the right time to bow out. hello again. jude bellingham scored the first goal of england's last world cup campaign. and he's done the same for his country at euro 202a. between the two, the 20—year—old real madrid midfielder has become one of the most celebrated players on the planet, and he proved crucial once again, giving england a 1—0 win over serbia. our sports editor dan roan was watching in gelsenkirchen. lunchtime in gelsenkirchen and england fans already making themselves heard as they flocked full of euros confidence.

we're going to win it. it's coming home. it has to be our year. this year we say it for time. we're just really excited to be here. can't wait. can't wait to get in that ground. it's our time. it's coming home. among the chants was one referencing germany's wartime past, which the authorities have urged fans not to sing. later, more unsavoury scenes ahead of a match deemed high risk by the authorities. following reports of scuffles, the local police saying there had been an altercation between fans from england and serbia in the city, with seven serbians arrested. but for most supporters, the mood was one of excitement about a team seen by many as tournament favourites. here in germany's industrial heartland. the real work about to begin for england to prove they could finally deliver. among the host of world class stars that england now possess, none shines brighter thanjude bellingham. england's golden boy.

and after a stellar season with real madrid, the 20—year—old carried on where he left off, providing england with the perfect start. the manager unable to contain his excitement, england seemed in control, but serbia have threats of their own. alexander mitrovic proved a handful during his time in the premier league, and the striker almost got the better of the english defence. but the underdogs were growing into the match. england living dangerously. the favourites were struggling for momentum. the manager turned to jarrod bowen, who quickly made an impression crossing perfectly for harry kane. it's off the bar. but the captain, who'd had a subdued performance, was denied brilliantly by predrag reykjavik. serbia may be ranked 33rd in the world, but here they were matching a lacklustre england. 0h, great save, jordan pickford. dusan vlahovic, his fierce shot, forcing jordan pickford into action. but england held on.

they may have had a winning start to their campaign here, and with sterner tests ahead, they'll need to improve if they're to justify their billing as genuine contenders. dan roan, bbc news gelsenkirchen. so the one goal was enough for england, and while manager gareth southgate insisted more will come as the tournament progresses, the player who provided that goal in gelsenkirchen admitted that after a stellar season with la liga and champions league winners real madrid, it's a lot of fun being jude bellingham right now. i just enjoy playing football when it comes to each and every game. i take it as a single game as opposed to looking too far into the future. i realise that in every game i feel like i can make an impact. ifeel like i can decide games, but that happens on any given game instead of looking too far into the future. and the truth is that i really enjoy playing football. so when i go out there, i play with the fearlessness because i love doing it so much. it's a release for me and yes, my favourite thing to do in the world. so when i play out,

it's not much of a job. it feels like a pleasure. england are clear at the top of group c after the other game provided the first draw of euro 2024, with slovenia and denmark finishing 1—1 in stuttgart. the first goal of the game was a significant one for cristian erikson in his first match at the tournament since collapsing on the pitch during a game nearly exactly three years ago because of a cardiac arrest. slovenia's equaliser 13 minutes from time came from erikjanza. his shot slightly deflected. denmark meet england in their next game in a repeat of the euro 2020 semi—final. the netherlands made a winning start by beating poland — but onlyjust coming from a goal down to win 2—1 in hamburg. substitute wout weghorst scoring the winner eight minutes from time with his first touch of the match. scotland head coach steve clarke says he's had to "kick a couple of backsides" and "give a couple of cuddles" after his side's humbling 5—1 defeat to hosts germany in the opening game of the tournament on friday. their attention has now turned

to their second match on wednesday against switzerland. jane dougall�*s with the team. it was a very honest steve clarke that we heard from earlier. he was very critical of himself, saying that he got it wrong against germany. he also said that he knew what he had got wrong. he said that it was his job as manager to turn up to front up to the media and to answer all of our questions, which he did do. he said that there were no excuses after that very heavy defeat to germany and that he was still tidying up loose ends after a very bad night. when you lose a game 5—1, you have to take all the criticism that comes. you have to respond. the good thing for me is, been in this position before, it's a roller—coaster of emotions. they understand they've let everybody down. they're disappointed. but they know they have to be ready and up for the next game because that's the nature of being involved in football. clark said that he had listened to a few of the players whose

opinions that he valued about what they could change for the rest of the tournament. he also said that he was dealing with the players in very different ways, and that he had spoken to them all individually. one of those players, of course, is ryan porteous, who was given a straight red card after his dangerous challenge on ilkay gundogan, which of course, led to a penalty against scotland. we know what went wrong. i spoke to the players about what i feel was wrong from my side. kicking a couple of backsides. giving a couple of cuddles. you said not to be too tough on ryan porteous. he will probably be the toughest on himself. how do you manage that? he was one of my cuddles. basically that's it. he was one of the ones that speak to officer explaining the situation. it doesn't look good. it's not a good look. ryan didn't want to make that challenge. he wanted to stop a goal. so you just have a little chat with him. he's very down, as you would expect. scotland's next match is against switzerland

on wednesday. clark said that granit xhaka was probably one of their best players, their captain, their leader, and he said that he was one to watch for wednesday. he also described switzerland as a team that could survive in tournaments, but he said that he hoped that scotland would get it right against them on wednesday and that switzerland would be the disappointed team. he also said that they have to get four points over the next two matches, and they do if they want to have a good chance of staying in this tournament. i asked clark if he would be watching england against serbia. he said he might catch the second half, but that he would be supporting gareth and his boys. bryson dechambeau has won the us open, byjust a single shot from rory mcilroy. his final round of 71 was enough to claim the title at pinehurst in north carolina. the american won this tournament in 2020 and this is his second major title.

the final round had a host of twists and turns with mcilroy on a 2—shot lead missing a short putt for par on the 18th that would have taken it to a plyaoff. dechambeau sunk his own to finish on six under par. britain's jack draper has won his first atp tour title after beating the former wimbledon runner up matteo berrettinni in the final of the stuttgart open. draper had already secured his place as the new british number one and beat a two—time winner of this tournament fighting back from a set down. draper had lost his first two tour finals in his career but this win moves him up to number 32 in the world and into a potential seeded position for wimbledon which starts in a couple of weeks. katie boulter won the wta event in nottingham for a second year running. the british number one had to overcome a one set deficit to even make the final on sunday, but after her victory over compatriot emma raducanu she then did the same against karolina pliskova to win the trophy. having missed out on that final, it's also been revealed that emma raducanu's turned down

the chance to play for great britain at this summer's olympics in paris. given her injury issues raducanu said she thought it was "not necessary" to put her body through switching surfaces. however two—time gold—medallist andy murray will compete for team gb at roland garros. i've had amazing experiences and memories from wimbledon, but also, you know, being part of british olympic, british olympic teams. and to get the chance to be involved in a fifth one, you know, as you know, is a reason to stay motivated and continue playing. pakistan have ended their t20 world cup campaign with a win, albeit not a particularly mood—changing one. they beat ireland, with both having been eliminated at the group stage. ireland were 3—4 at one stage having been put into bat in florida. shaheen shah afridi took three wickets and after having a wobble on their way to chasing down 107 to win the bowler struck two crucial sixes late in the game with the bat as he and captain babar azam helped pakistan to a three—wicket win.

you can get all the latest sports news at from the bbc sport app, orfrom our website — that's bbc.com/sport. you can get reaction to the growth and it euros tournament three days into the tournament. that's it from sportsday. thank you for watching. goodbye. hello. sunday was a day of contrasts. we had some warmer weather than we've had for nearly two weeks where the sun shone — 22 degrees in southern areas — that's average, but a cool 12 degrees under that band of cloud and rain. now, that band of cloud and rain is all associated with this area of low pressure, which has been around since friday. thursday, friday, infact, it's sinking southwards — the band of rain — as the low pressure starts to pull away. so we will find that it turns a little lighter, the rain, as it drifts

its way southwards, but still a few heavy bursts on it, a lot of cloud and some mistiness over the hills. to the north of that, a few showers, but quite cool forjune and cool in southern areas. first thing might be a little bit of dawn mist, but some sunshine. now, gradually through the day, that band of rain will sink southwards and start to break up. so allowing some drier, brighter weather, but could be the focal point for some of the heavy showers, rumbles the of thunder, and there will be quite a cluster of showers following on behind to scotland, northern ireland. but in contrast to sunday, temperatures will get to around about 17 or 18, and still pretty warm further south. and those sorts of temperatures around about the average. it's not promised to dry — there'll still be a good scattering of heavy showers around — but at least with the strong june sunshine in between, we are seeing temperatures or realising temperatures where they should be for the time of year. but a subtle change to the northerly again across the northern half of the uk through sunday night and into — sorry — through monday night and into tuesday. and so it will be again a tad on the cool side tuesday morning. but we're watching developments also in the south.

later monday and into tuesday, this could brush, certainly cloud if not rain across the channel islands into the south of england. but this ridge of high pressure through the week should keep many places drier than they have been for a while and allow some more sunshine, so it'll feel warmer. but you can see the potential for the blanket of cloud across southern areas, possibly some rain. showers still with us, particularly in central and northern areas, one or two heavy ones as well on that northerly breeze. so it could actually be a bit cooler on tuesday again for northern scotland, but again, not too bad — temperatures getting to around the average for the time of year. and that's the way it's set to stay for the rest of the week, but certainly not promising it dry. there'll be some showers around and that risk of rain both for the north and the far south. so you can, as ever, stay up to date on the website. but it does look a little drier and a little warmer as we go through this week.
