6:47 pm
big of a deal as it might seem for the event djokovic is significant older than taylor fritz. it is prudent to acknowledge that recovery times are different as the body gets older. novak djokovic, the ultimate athlete for the if anyone is going to be in tip top shape and recovering when it comes to that sort of stuff that will be him. straight set wins for him today look really good taylor fritz, we phoned and said, how it realistic to come back? he is a you can do it, you can do it for the observed the rest of the men's locker room was nnnooo, just take it off and give us a chance for the love having you. thank you so much for come back to meet later. we will talk more tennis towards the end of the program. let's head back the bbc sport center. thank you. from wimbledon to the euros where we'll know the line up for the quarter finals in the next few hours. austria against turkey is the final

6:49 pm
to make matters worse, he missed a penalty in extra time that could have sealed victory and was inconsolable afterwards. he redeemed himself in the shootout as portugal progressed. earlier i spoke with journalist andy brassell — about the impact he's having on the portugal team. the fact is portugal means everything to him. more than anything else perhaps in his career. we saw in 2016 when he wasn't a big part of that because the tackle put them out of the final in paris after less than an hour. but when portugal got it over the line it had nothing to do with him. it meant everything to do with him. it meant everything to him. again, we saw in this game in frankfurt, even after all his trophies and all his goals it still means everything to him. when is on the field, would _ means everything to him. when is on the field, would be _ means everything to him. when is on the field, would be a _ means everything to him. when is on the field, would be a help— means everything to him. when is on the field, would be a help or - the field, would be a help or hindrance to the team when you put it in those terms of euro 2016? it’s it in those terms of euro 2016? it's really hard — it in those terms of euro 2016? it�*s really hard to have a high—profile player who you know is a brilliant

player who you know is a brilliant player for your team player who you know is a brilliant playerfor your team but player who you know is a brilliant player for your team but who can't really keep a lid on it. at the moments i thought. you have to think maybe the leadership and the team from somewhere else for that maybe it's a quiet source, maybe it's from bernardo silver but it's certainly something that roberto martinez has to manage is it really shown that inclination to want to manage them just yet. inclination to want to manage them 'ust et. ~ ., ., inclination to want to manage them 'ust et. a . ., , inclination to want to manage them 'ust et. . ., , ., just yet. what are the people of portu . al just yet. what are the people of portugal thinking _ just yet. what are the people of portugal thinking about - just yet. what are the people of portugal thinking about what i just yet. what are the people of i portugal thinking about what they saw last night and how trinaldo reacted? , ., saw last night and how trinaldo reacted? , . , ., reacted? there is an understanding that he's no — reacted? there is an understanding that he's no longer— reacted? there is an understanding that he's no longer at _ reacted? there is an understanding that he's no longer at superman. . reacted? there is an understanding l that he's no longer at superman. the guy who can put portugal on his back and carry on to glory. on the other hand is someone who is loved and indulged. where's people don't expect them to be the captioned offensive solution to portugal this time there is a sense of, as part of the cristiano drama. where he may be chris singh criticised for it, if you look at the way it's looked at in portugal there is a sense of, oh its in portugal there is a sense of, oh it'sjust in portugal there is a sense of, oh its just cristiano.

meanwhile, at another major football tournament — the copa america — the hosts, the usa, are still trying to come to terms with an embarassing early exit. their 1—0 defeat to uruguay meant the usa finished third in their group — while uruguay go through as group winners. a humilating night for the usa — who are set to host the world cup in 2026. let's have a quick look at some of the other stories making the headlines today. manchester united women have signed former arsenal defender dominiquejanssen on a three—year contract, with the option of a further season. janssen was a free agent after leaving german club wolfsburg this summer. chelsea have signed midfielder kiernan dewsbury—hall from leicester city for 30 million pounds. he's signed a six yer deal and becomes chelsea's fourth signing of the summer. and tottenham have also spent thirty million pounds on a midfielder — bringing in archie gray from leeds united. defenderjoe rodon has moved in the opposite direction in a deal worth about £10m. we've heard from brighton's new manager today. fabian hurzeler is the new man

at the amex stadium — replacing roberto de zerbi. atjust 31 years old, he's the youngest premier league manager ever — but has already had success in the dugout — leading st pauli to promotion to germany's top division last season. big topic for that i always say that on the young man but i'm not a young coach. so i was able to gain a lot of experience in different areas. of course i don't have experience in the premier league. i think there's always a start. tadej pogacar has taken control of the tour de france on stage four — which started in italy, crossed into the french alps and climbed the col du galibier. pogacar putjonas vingegaard under serious pressure. the defending champion hasn't raced since breaking multiple bones in a crash in april, the slovenian rode away towards the top of the galibier and took an eight—second time bonus and then raced down the other side of the mountain, to claim his 12th stage win. pogacar now leads

6:54 pm
a new challenge. i didn't ever start a second sport with the aim to win a gold medal. ijust fancied a new challenge and knew i wanted to put myself in the mix to go to another paralympics. it was never a certainty, absolutely. i was coming into a very established team and absolutely didn't take that for granted. just feel incredibly fortunate that i've been it able to extend my career i went for turkey and after paris it isa it is a real privilege. its job done it is a real privilege. its 'ob done for the novel i it is a real privilege. its 'ob done for the novel they i it is a real privilege. its 'ob done for the novel they beat i it is a real privilege. its job done for the novel they beat to make | it is a real privilege. its job done l for the novel they beat to make it to the last in the euros with up more on the bbc website. to the last in the euros with up more on that's all from here at the bbc sport centre, but let's head back to wimbledon — and join chetan — as the action continues at sw19. it certainly does. i can't quite remember a day quite as busy with so much going on the anti—murray nooses use part of that. hope to see them the doubles with his brotherjamie katie boulter winning in the last

hello there. these were not the sort of skies you'd expect to see at this time of the year, and the weather pattern isn't changing much through the rest of the week. the westerly wind could strengthen, it will bring in some further rain at times and keep it cool for this time of the year. now, what's changed from a couple of weeks ago when we had temperatures of 30 degrees? well, the position of the jet stream back then the jet was to the north of the uk. we sucked in all that heat and humidity, but what's happening now and through the rest of the week is the jet stream is further south. we're on the colder side of the jet, and those temperatures are going to be a lot lower, and the jet is going to steer in more cloud from the atlantic. this is where our weather is coming from. already had some heavier rain in western scotland, and that thickening cloud will bring more rain into scotland, into northern ireland, and that rain will gradually push its way southwards
6:58 pm
and eastwards into most of england and wales. and with a lot of cloud around overnight, it's going to keep the temperatures generally ten or 11 degrees. it may briefly get a little cooler in eastern parts of scotland, but that rain from overnight will soon clear away early tomorrow morning, leaving a lot of cloud, some pockets of light rain or drizzle, and then we'll get some sunshine after the rain in northern ireland and in scotland in the afternoon with some showers. some late sunshine for wales and western england as the rain clears later. but for much of the day wales and the south west could be rather dull and misty, and the afternoon temperatures on wednesday very similar to what we had today. now the weather fronts should be moving away fairly quickly, taking most of the rain away, but with low pressure to the north. we're going to have some stronger winds on thursday, and those winds will be strongest across the northern half of the uk, where we'll see some showers, frequent showers, heavy showers in scotland with some thunder generally as you head further south a better chance of staying dry, maybe some welcome sunshine around as well, just giving the temperatures a boost by a degree or two, but still cool for this time of the year.
6:59 pm
and as we move into friday, we could see another set of weather fronts, an area of low pressure coming in to bring some rain into england and wales this time, that then moves away. but this cool and unsettled theme continues notjust through the rest of this week, but into the weekend as well, where we'll see some sunshine at times. but there'll also be some showers as well.
