france are up and running at euro 2024 — thanks in part, to this unfortunate own goal. tennis stars aryna sabalenka and ons jabeur become the latest players to say they won't be competing at the paris olympics. and bangladesh complete the line—up for the t20 cricket world cup�*s super 8s — after victory over nepal. (pres) let's start at the european football championship. france have made a winning start, after beating austria 1—0 in dusseldorf in group d. but as patrick geary reports, they needed a bit of luck along the way. the bigger the star, the bigger the close—up. the focus is always on kylian mbappe. as a global icon, the france captain's

every move is watched. it's another thing trying to keep up with him. austria escaped but they have the capacity to do more than survive. the austrians have been on good form and here for christoph baumgartner, a great chance. commentator: and maignan did his job superbly. _ a sliding doors moment because in a blink, the match moved on. mbappe moved on, mesmerisingly. commentator: it's an own goal. france have taken the lead. typical, magical. a conjuring trick that made poor max wober the stooge. it is easy to take mbappe for granted, so when he got away here, everyone knew what would happen next. until somehow it didn't. commentator: and misses. goodness me! so for didier deschamps, this was not yet comfortable and for mbappe, less so. his nose felt the force of trying to score a second. eventually he went off. that would be their last problem though. les bleus are on their way.

this was not spectacular but for this much fancied france, it is a start. patrick gearey, bbc news. well france captain kylian mbappe came off towards the end of the match, after suffering a suspected broken nose. he collided with austria defender kevin danso whilst trying to win a header— and left the pitch covered in blood. manager didier deschamps says he's "not doing well" and described the injury as "very worrying". france will hope it does not keep him out of action for too long with two more group games still to go. long with two more group games still to go. there's been a huge upset in group e, where slovakia beat belgium 1—0 in frankfurt. belgium began the stronger, but against the run of play ivan shranz capitalised on a mistake from jeremy doku after 7 minutes. belgium's all—time record goal scorer romelu lukaku was then to have 2 goals ruled out by var, the second when a handball was detected in the build up. a losing start then for belgium boss domenico tedesco,

who refuses to blame doku for his error. the mistake was my cat, of course it hurts. it hurts for him, it hurts for me, for the team, because he is not deserving about. but it's part of the game, you know? football, you would not score any goals without errors. it's part of the game and it happens. also slovakia did many errors tonight. that's why we had to score. it's no problem. we speak now probably little bit more about this error because it was decisive of a goal. there was also a surprise in the opening match of the day as romania beat ukraine 3—0. nicoliah stanchu put romania 1—0 up, with this brilliant strike on the half hour mark. razvan marin and denis dragus were also on the scoresheet. romania had failed to win their opening game in any of their previous five

appearances at the euros — so plenty to celebrate for the team and their fans. well on display in munich — where that match took place — are damaged seats from ukraine's sonyachny stadium in khakiv. the stadium was destroyed by russian troops following their invasion of ukraine in 2022. the damaged stand, built for euro 2012, was presented in the city centre by former ukraine striker andriy shevchenko. following on from emma raducanu's decision not to play at the olympics this summer, world number three aryna sabalenka and two—time wimbledon finalist ons jabeur have also both announced they wont be playing in paris. sabalenka, from belarus, says there's too much tennis in her schedule. she retained her australian open title injanuary, but lost in the french open quarter—finals. athletes from russia and belarus who qualify for the games, can only compete as neutrals in paris, following russia's invasion of ukraine. meanwhile, world number 10 jabeur says she has concerns over how her body would adapt to the clay surface being used at the olympics. she's currently playing

on the grass and will then compete on hard courts at the us open. jabeur has previously represented tunisia at the 2012 and 2016 olympics and the covid—delayed tokyo games in 2021. cameron norrie�*s disappointing form continues, after a first round defeat on the grass at queens. at the 2012 and 2016 olympics and the covid—delayed tokyo games in 2021. cameron norrie�*s disappointing form continues, after a first round defeat on the grass at queens. he went down in 3 sets to canada's milos raonic. norrie, who was replaced as british number1 on monday byjack draper, had 2 match points of his own in the third set tie breaker. but, raonic came through 11 points to 9. the former wimbledon finalist, who's only played four tournaments this year, served 47 aces in the win — a new atp record in 3 set matches. i got lucky to get through. obviously this serve helped me a lot today. it's good to be back playing out here in queen's.

i think it's been 5—6 years since i played here last time, so for me, to be able to enjoy these type of moments, even though they aren't always fun going through them at the moment, it's the things that's most exciting about competing to be back on court. meanwhile, andy murray is predicting that jack draper could go on to become a future world number one — after he won his first atp tour title beating the former wimbledon finalist matteo berretini, to lift the trophy at the stuttgart open. he's now the highest ranked british player, just outside the top 30 and will begin his campaign at queens on tuesday. just the way they play is what i'm most proud of and yet, even though it's not too long to reset it, i've put the play tomorrow but coming year and feeling confident in a list of things as well, definitely means a lot

to me and i'll remember coming in and to be good to get the title last week and yet, i'm in such a different place mentally, physically and my tennis is very different. and rory mcilroy says he'll take a few weeks away from golf "to process everything" after his gut—wrenching final round to bryson dechambeu in the us open. the northern irishman missed two short putts in the closing stages to see a first major title in 10 years slip away. he posted on social media.

here's former european golfer graeme storm. he was so, so close to getting that fifth major and we know how much she striving to get that fifth major all that he'd done, he missed those two pots in 500 attempts over the season, so his putting has been really strong of late but it's let him down at that crucial moment. it's no longer in our conversation about the masters and that's a well—worn conversation. it is now very much can he win any major and it's been a decade since he won his last. he he's going to win, but rory on his a—game is really, really difficult to beat. and when he's playing like he was playing at pinehurst, which you have to remember, the golf course was really difficult, really difficult to hit the greens. next minute it's in the native

area and found it difficult to get up and down or even make his partner. so it's always difficult to win a major and it's always going to be on the back of his mind, no matter how well he is playing, if he is not in a good vein of form when he's gone into a tournaments, he will definitely win at least one, too, may be multiple more majors. after two weeks of action, the line—up for the super 8s at the men's t20 cricket world cup is now complete. both the hosts are through — that's the united states and west indies, along with india, england, australia, afghanistan, south africa and joining them — bangladesh. that's after they beat nepal by 21 runs. nepal gave it good go, but ultimately fell short in their chase of 107. it would have been their first win over a test—playing nation. shakib al—hasan with the final wicket. the result also ended the netherlands' slim hopes of qualification, they were beaten by sri lanka. thatis that is pretty much it from the world of sports.

let's take a look through the english channel, there is that rain perilously close to kent and east sussex. a bit of wet weather possible here. should clear away during the afternoon. sunday spells for wales up towards east anglia. variable cloud as we move across into northern ireland. but a bit more brightness here than in recent days. still fairly cloudy for scotland with that northerly wind bringing a few rain showers, but they will be fairly light and patchy as they clear through the day. one or two sharp showers for southern scotland, and north—east england down the pennines as well. some sunshine to the south of that lifting temperatures to about 21—22 in the warmer spots. typically looking at the mid to high teens for most, coolerjust 12 or 13 across the northern half of scotland. moving into the middle of the week into wednesday, this ridge of high pressure moves its way in and squeezing the weather fronts away. so most of us having a fine, dry day on wednesday with some longer spells of sunshine, maybe some cloud bubbling up through the day so not looking at wall—to—wall blue sky. a bit of a cool breeze blowing for wast anglia and the far south—east end it will also

cloud over with a few sparks of rain for the, spots of rain in the far north—west. again, coolerfor the north and north west of scotland. 12-14. most of us, 17—21 celsius. so more typical for the time of year. strong sunshine as well this time of year. thursday, still a lot of dry weather, could be some showers close to the south—east of england once again, low pressure not too far away across the near continent. perhaps a bit more cloud in rain in the far north—west of scotland. in between, a fair amount of dry weather, 18—22 celsius. a touch colder than that for the northern isles in the western isles as well. most of us dry, through into friday but more of a chance of a bit more unsettled weather initially in the north—west and then perhaps a little bit more widely some spells of rain as we head on into saturday. bye for now.
