jersey on day one of the tour de france. also coming up on sportsday, india on top of the world. max verstappen will be on pole once again as red bull look for victory in their home austrian grand prix. italy have been beaten 2—0 by switzerland. we have the report. after the calculations of the group stage, the rays moved along. it is now lose and go home and, fatally,

they won the world cup in berlin in 2006 but title defences have not been as easy. switzer meant a dad to take on the holders. this was a first half where they hit their stride. they had not beaten italy in more than 30 years. now they had swiss hope overflowing. italy had not yet been convincing now there are signs of decline were being exposed. switzerland 2—0 and it was also straightforward. they shot off the post was italy's only opening. the team won the last euros were fading out. the team won the last euros were fading out-—

ignore external advice and be assured and what you are doing. now, equally, we've had some players who have come in and had a big impact upon the bench in our substitutions and all of the matches have had a big impact. and we are mindful that people are pushing for places in this competition. we need that strength in depth. the squad are barry together. they are training well. that is pushing the starting team that has been in place but also the other players have to be ready. tomorrow you might need five or six changes. it is over half the team now. so that is really, really important and, fries, it is important and, fries, it is important that when players come on they perform as the guys did the other night. the they perform as the guys did the other night-— they perform as the guys did the other night. they perform as the guys did the other niuht. u, , ., .,, ., h, ., other night. the captain was also at that ress other night. the captain was also at that press conference _ other night. the captain was also at that press conference alongside - that press conference alongside gareth southgate. he scored six goals in his past six knockout matches for england. he says he is

dip and so could he get place in the starting 11? southgate has so far resisted demands for wholesale change. but one thing is for sure, the fans out here in germany would love to see a slightly more positive approach from england. the word boring has been bandied around by the fans an awful lot over the past couple of weeks, i can tell you now. earlier on today i spoke to the former england international and he told me how he thinks england should play. told me how he thinks england should -la . told me how he thinks england should play. there may be one or two. i think gordon _ play. there may be one or two. i think gordon might _ play. there may be one or two. i think gordon might be _ play. there may be one or two. i think gordon might be one, - play. there may be one or two. i | think gordon might be one, even though— think gordon might be one, even though he — think gordon might be one, even though he has fell off his bike. that— though he has fell off his bike. that is— though he has fell off his bike. that is fine. he seems to be ok. and maybe _ that is fine. he seems to be ok. and maybe palmer, i don't know. i think he is _ maybe palmer, i don't know. i think he is celebrating his birthday yesterday or today, i'm not quite chop _ yesterday or today, i'm not quite chop it _ yesterday or today, i'm not quite chop it up — yesterday or today, i'm not quite chop it up congratulations to him for his— chop it up congratulations to him for his new— chop it up congratulations to him for his new baby, which is great. he is back— for his new baby, which is great. he is back in_ for his new baby, which is great. he is back in camp. i think maybe a couple _ is back in camp. i think maybe a couple of— is back in camp. i think maybe a couple of changes. i don't mine will change _ couple of changes. i don't mine will change. maybe a winger or two. said that is the

this match but they have already come in ways, exceeded the expectations of their home fans. they have nothing to lose and can sometimes be a dangerous thing. the house germany will bid to reach the quarterfinals in around 20 minutes orso quarterfinals in around 20 minutes or so when they take on denmark. the danes famously beat the germans dragon zero in 1992 to win the european championship for the first and only time. bedside are unbeaten so far in this tournament. aha, 11th and only time. bedside are unbeaten so far in this tournament.— so far in this tournament. a lot has been said about _ so far in this tournament. a lot has been said about 92, _ so far in this tournament. a lot has been said about 92, especially - so far in this tournament. a lot has been said about 92, especially in l been said about 92, especially in denmark— been said about 92, especially in denmark put part of growing up that you learn _ denmark put part of growing up that you learn about that. particular summon — you learn about that. particular summer. the big story back then was denmark— summer. the big story back then was denmark was quite an outsider. i'm not even _ denmark was quite an outsider. i'm not even qualified for the tournament. so we have. ithink not even qualified for the tournament. so we have. i think we have _ tournament. so we have. i think we have a _ tournament. so we have. i think we have a good — tournament. so we have. i think we have a good team but there is no doubt. _ have a good team but there is no doubt. for— have a good team but there is no doubt, for anything special to happen. _ doubt, for anything special to happen, we would have to be a bit of an upset. _ happen, we would have to be a bit of an uset. , ., ., happen, we would have to be a bit of an uset. , ., ., . an upset. does not matter if you are the host team _ an upset. does not matter if you are the host team are _ an upset. does not matter if you are the host team are not, _ an upset. does not matter if you are the host team are not, the - the host team are not, the expedition _ the host team are not, the expedition of— the host team are not, the expedition of fans - the host team are not, the expedition of fans will- the host team are not, the . expedition of fans will always the host team are not, the - expedition of fans will always be the same — expedition of fans will always be the same and _ expedition of fans will always be the same and they— expedition of fans will always be the same and they will- expedition of fans will always be the same and they will always i

have never won a global tournament and that drought would not end now. but for a country where cricket is not so much a sport but a religion, india had ascended to the highest of heights. ben croucher, bbc news. cycling's biggest race of the year is under way. for the first time in its history the tour de france started in italy. the opening stage ended with a frenchman in yellow, as roman barday pulled off a remarkable victory. but there was concern for britain's mark cavendish who struggled in the heat. nick parrott reports. the ceremonial start in florence was serene but, with a temperature above 30 degrees, it was sweltering even before racing had properly began. mark cavendish said this would be the hardest start he had ever done. he needed help at the first of seven climbs and was sick on the descent. he finished inside the cut—off time and will be hoping his ordeal does

not affect his bid to claim the outright record for stage wins. cavendish is one of the record 11 british riders taking part but none are expected to challenge for overall victory. the defending champion is back on his bike despite not having raced isn't a serious crash in april. slovenia's rider is likely to be the dane's main rival. the rest of the peloton on could not keep up. the frenchman left them behind with more than 30 to go and, with the help of his dutch team—mate, he held them off to claim the reader's yellowjersey for the first time in his career. manchester united have confirmed that the keeper will leave the club. she joined that the keeper will leave the club. shejoined united in 2019 and made 125 appearances. the dutch moto gp

sprint race got off to a bad start for the six time champion. the dutch motogp sprint race at assen got off to a bad start for six time champion marc marquez, as the spaniard crashed out on just the second lap. italy's defending champion francesco bagnaia lead from pole, going on to beat championship leader jorge marteen and his fellow spaniard maverick vinales. stage 13 of rally poland was an unlucky one for elvin evans. damage to the right rear tyre on his toyota cost the briton almost nine seconds. it saw him drop to third overall. his team mate kaller rovanpera is leading. the rally ends tomorrow. max verstappen has increased his lead in the formula one drivers championship after winning the sprint race at the austrian grand prix. the dutchman started from pole at the red bull ring, but briefly lost his lead to mclaren's lando norris. once the world champion got back in front though he stayed there, going on to claim his third sprint race victory of the season. australian 0scar piastri finished second ahead of his mclaren team mate norris.

verstappen kept his foot hard on the gas for qualifying a few hours later, taking his eighth pole position of the season. he was almost half a second quicker than norris, whose fellow briton george russell will line up third for mercedes for tomorrow's grand prix. it has been a while that we actually have been on pole. so it is great. it is a great feeling. the team is working really hard, you know, to try to make the car more competitive. and i think this is a great statement, and hopefully we can of course also show that tomorrow in the race. good qualifying. i think as much as we could do today. max, like you said, was in a league of his own. much quicker than what we had so i am happy. tricky conditions. it felt more difficult than yesterday. a lot closer so more difficult to get a laps in and to kinda perfect at elapse but it was good enough and i_ will take it. now a number of athletes can secure their place on the team gb olympic team this weekend,

at the uk athletics championships in manchester, a top two finish with an olympic qualifying standard guarantees a place. 0ne athlete who's booked her spot in paris is daryll neita, who eased into the 100m final in manchester, she'll head to the games in great form having finished second in the 200m at the recent european championships in rome, as she looks to add to her tokyo and rio 0lympic bronze medals. i have watched you for a number of years, but there was something different this year put up your look supremely confident — and rightly so because you are performing. thank you so much that i am feeling very good and it feels amazing to compete in front of a home crowd today in manchester, and i'm just excited for the season. doubling up here and paris as well? you are strong? i am strong. preparations are going very well and it isjust building steps towards the main games and i am really excited. keely hodgkinson has already secured her spot for paris in the 800m, but this weekend she's

trying her luck in the 400m. she eased into tomorrow's final with a comfortable second place finish behind nicole yeargin. 1500m world champion and olympic bronze medallist josh kerr looks in good form, he qualified in third place in the 800m behind ben pattison and max burgin. katarina johnson thompson took part in the javelin despite pulling out of the european championships in rome earlier this month with a minor leg injury. she threw 42.38 metres, which is almost a metre and a half below her pb. she will also compete in one abide at the 200 metres highjump on sunday as she prepares for paris. taylor fritz has won a record third men's singles title at eastbourne beating max purcell of australia in straight sets in the final. the pair had only met once before, with fritz winning in basle, and this afternoon he soon took the first set 6—4. the world number 13 cruised

through the next set 6—3, finishing with a little help from the technology. the american didn't drop a set all week and looks in great form ahead of wimbledon which begins on monday. i had ihad an i had an injury at the french open and i am still, i still feel that i'm kind of recovering from it and just at the corners moving not as fast as i think i could but, you know, that is why i am here playing on grass. it is something i can i guess make work on grass as long as i'm serving well. i definitely say this might be the best time in serving on grass. daria kasatkina saw off a spirited effort from leylah fernandez to become the women's champion. the russian sixth seed won in straight sets to secure her seventh tour title in one hour and 50 minutes, it's her first on grass. for kasatkina it made up for losing last year's final. i was just trying to treated not as

experiential area so if you are lucky enough to that first group of people to get your ticket or you are waiting to get into the ground is lighter on the day we've got an area where you can relax a bit. there is food and drink and a big screen. some of our partners are doing fun things that people can participate in in that space. he still had the opportunity to stand on line if you want to do that and i suspect some people will be quite committed to standing in line but there is the opportunityjust to relax a bit during that period of time so we hope that what that will do is encourage people to continue to queue and just really enhance their experience while they are doing it. and the reason you wanted to increase the capacity on the hill because you think that, in recent years, some people have been left disappointed by not being able to access it? and this year there is going to be so much attention on marry potentially last march here. at certain points in the championship however big our hell is we would always be challenged for space and we are always looking at different ways in which we can improve that experience and has been

voted the area, we felt there was a real opportunity to use that space better. it is probably a great example of where we are always looking at the small details because we believe there is kind of amendments they can make a big difference, we should be continually looking for. not a significant change and many people may well not notice it but we think it will help to improve the guest experience. abshd to improve the guest experience. and of course the geopolitical situation at the moment is complex. given the context to the championships yet again, could you talk as though a little bit about security and your briefings with players and the experience for them? in the mechanic more generally we recognise that we are all operating now in a much more complicated world and there are different challenges presented to as. in different challenges presented to as. . different challenges presented to as. , ., , . , different challenges presented to as. , . , ., as. in terms of security for the championships _ as. in terms of security for the championships it _ as. in terms of security for the championships it is _ as. in terms of security for the championships it is the - as. in terms of security for the championships it is the same l as. in terms of security for the - championships it is the same every year. year round we are working with the metropolitan police and other agencies to think about the risks and threats that are out there and put in place development measures each year. probably were not going to those in detail but i'm very
