for a record—extending eighth time, taking the title after a dramatic late collapse by china. it came on the final apparatus when weide su fell from the horizontal bar, handing japan's olympic individual champion, daiki hashimoto, the chance to overtake their rivals for the gold. china's final competitor couldn't make up the gap and japan win back the gold they last won in rio. romanian teenager david popovic won a thrilling 200 metres freestyle final, just two hundredths of a second separated popovic and second—placed matt richards of britain, who claimed the silver from lane one. less than a tenth separated all the medal—winners, with america's luke hobson taking the bronze, while earlier summer mcintosh took the title in the women's 400 metres medley, dominating in a race that was much less close. now, it could have been theirfinal meeting in a singles match after 60 during their careers, but novak djokovic knocked rafael nadal out of the olympic tennis tournament.

nadal says he'll decide on his future plans after the games after losing in straight sets to a man ranked 159 places higher than the spaniard, who won 1a french open titles at this venue. nadal is still in the doubles in paris with carlos alcaraz. it was a great experience, but on sporting a bit disappointed, but a good game. it sporting a bit disappointed, but a good game-— sporting a bit disappointed, but a ood ame. . , ., good game. it was incredible, and ma be the good game. it was incredible, and maybe the last — good game. it was incredible, and maybe the last one, _ good game. it was incredible, and maybe the last one, the _ good game. it was incredible, and maybe the last one, the last - good game. it was incredible, and | maybe the last one, the last battle for those _ maybe the last one, the last battle for those two unbelievable players. i'm glad _ for those two unbelievable players. i'm glad we were able to watch the game, _ i'm glad we were able to watch the game, it_ i'm glad we were able to watch the game, it was— i'm glad we were able to watch the game, it was amazing to _ i'm glad we were able to watch the game, it was amazing to be - i'm glad we were able to watch the game, it was amazing to be there. | i'm glad we were able to watch the i game, it was amazing to be there. it game, it was amazing to be there. it was game, it was amazing to be there. was wonderful, wonderful for us game, it was amazing to be there.- was wonderful, wonderful for us and especially the children, because they did not have the occasion to see these players much.

few gold medals in paris will be won in such dramatic fashion as tom pidcock�*s in the cross country mountain biking. the british rider started the race as favourite to retain the gold he won in tokyo and was leading the way until a puncture disrupted his plans it sent pidcock down to ninth place and a0 seconds behind the leaders. but he recovered, battling his way back through the field. then came the head—to—head with france's victor koretzky but, with just a few metres to go on the near 90—minute race, pidcock passed koretzy to take the title again. i know how fast victor is on the last laps like this, especially with the home crowd, he would not have been feeling his legs and you 15,000 people cheering your name, but i knew if i could stay close, i could come around near the finish, i would have a chance, and he made a mistake on a descent, so i managed to come past. great britain's first gold of the paris 0lympics also involved a retained title in team eventing. tokyo 2020 champions laura collett and tom mcewan joined by world number one ros canter sealed victory in the final showjumping

stage at versailles. host nation france took the silver with japan claiming bronze. german michaeljung won his fourth olympic gold medal in the three—day competition combining dressage, cross—country and showjumping. jung, riding on chipmunk, finished ahead of australia's christopher burton and laura collett of britain. it wasjung's third individual 0lympics win after london 2012 and rio 2016. the most popular winner of the day could well have been by frenchman nicolas gestin, who was certainly the most convincing one. the single canoe slalom is often won by hundredths of a second, but gestin beat his rivals by more than five seconds, obliterating the field to claim his first 0lympic title. adam burgess of britain was second, winning silver after finishing fourth in tokyo. away from the olympics, manchester united hope to make a final decision on a new stadium by the end of the calendar year. united co—owner sirjim ratcliffe wants to build a wembley of the north and has put together

a task force to assess the feasibility of a 100,000 seater venue as part of a £2 billion redevelopment. and that's all the sport for now. it's amazing what you get into during the olympics, i've been watching the horses all day. and from salford we shall pass the torch to paris. with much more on day three of the games, here is maryam moshiri. i thought you were about to say talking about horses, over to mariam. i don't know these days, christian, i don't know what to expect from the context,. let's bring you a bit of what's not quite sport but very 0lympics themed. let's take you to the paris 0lympic cauldron. i want to take you here because it's an interesting story, this cauldron, you must know because you watch the opening ceremony, was

lit at the end of that amazing sermon he as celine dion took to the stage on the eiffel tower. you can see tonnes of people with their phone —— forms out, but they have one or bought or applied for one of 10,000 tickets which you can get here in paris. i think they are sold out no, but there is talk of getting a few more slots in, and the tickets to go and see the cauldron as it is on the ground and then every evening at sunset, and it sunset now, the cauldron rises majestically up to the 60 feet or so above the paris skyline, and it's absolutely gorgeous, stays there all night and sinks back down again in the day and then visitors can come and come and visit. so those are live pictures of all those people lucky enough to get all those people lucky enough to get a glimpse of that beautiful cauldron as it is lifted up into the air. i think that organisers of the paris of the pics are considering making it a permanent fixture, such is its

popularity. it's 9.36 pm local time in paris — the games continue their path on the third day of the tournament — excitement, nerves, last minute victories and unexpected loses — as my huw from salford just said. one of those moments many people at home have probably enjoyed is the silver medal for the diving dual team — tom daley and noah williams. these are the fifth games for daley, who have won four more medals in previous games: one gold and one bronze in tokyo, one bronze in rio and another bronze in london. earlier, i spoke to them and this was their reaction. we are both over the moon. it is been really special to be up to dive in front of a crowd again because tokyo was such a different 0lympics, tokyo was such a different olympics, and for me to be able to dive in front of my kids and my husband and holy family and friends, it was emotionalfor me to holy family and friends, it was emotional for me to step out in the practice before the competition and see them all their because that was my goal for me this year, to get to the other pics, because i taken two years off and decided to come back,

and i wanted this ought to be worth it, to see them there i know how much love and support i have. the result of the competition was going to be irrelevant to me but i'm glad we came away with silver. 50 to be irrelevant to me but i'm glad we came away with silver. so happy first meadow- _ we came away with silver. so happy first meadow. so _ we came away with silver. so happy first meadow. so i _ we came away with silver. so happy first meadow. so i can _ we came away with silver. so happy first meadow. so i can convey - we came away with silver. so happy| first meadow. so i can convey much. i literally— first meadow. so i can convey much. i literally feel i did the best i could, — i literally feel i did the best i could, and to do the best you can and, _ could, and to do the best you can and. with— could, and to do the best you can and, with the middle, i don't have complaints. — and, with the middle, i don't have complaints, i sat my family there, the support was and seen many because — the support was and seen many because of this guy but it was a special— because of this guy but it was a special moment. it because of this guy but it was a special moment.— because of this guy but it was a special moment. it was fun to speak to tom and — special moment. it was fun to speak to tom and know— special moment. it was fun to speak to tom and know and _ special moment. it was fun to speak to tom and know and you _ special moment. it was fun to speak to tom and know and you get - special moment. it was fun to speak to tom and know and you get the i to tom and know and you get the sense that they are so just elated and relieved that at least this part for noah is over, he has the individual events. as the sun sets here — north of paris, one of the powerhouses of olympic competition begin their quest for gold tonight. in lille, the usa women's team is taking onjapan in theirfirst match of the tournament. the americans have finished on top of the olympic podium at every games since 1984 —

and in paris, they're going for their eighth straight olympic gold. so the question is — can anyone challenge them? let's speak now to cheryl raye stout, chicago sports reporter. lovely to talk to you, thank you for joining us here. let me ask you first of all. are the americans going to do it once more, is team usa going to win the women's basketball as they always do? if i was a betting person, i would say yes. they are a dominant team, from top to bottom, and that's the way they have been built.— they have been built. why? why do they have been built. why? why do the americans _ they have been built. why? why do the americans dominate _ they have been built. why? why do the americans dominate the - they have been built. why? why do the americans dominate the sport i the americans dominate the sport so much at at olympic level? the wnba has really straightened _ much at at olympic level? the wnba has really straightened itself - much at at olympic level? the wnba has really straightened itself and - has really straightened itself and there don't see many teams internationally like they are in the united states in as far as what they

in what appears to have been a deeply unfair election, riddled with irregularities, venezuelan's authoritarian president, nicolas maduro,

appears to have survived again. the result is being challenged. at least nine latin american countries have requested an emergency meeting of the organisation of american states. the opposition says the count was fraudulent, with more upheaval predicted. with 80 % of the ballot counted, the national electoral council, which is full of mr maduro allies, declared him the winner with 51% of the vote. ahead of the opposition candidate, edmundo gonzalez who was given 44%. the polling ahead of the vote had put mr gonzalez substantially ahead. but because officials at many voting centres refuse to hand over paper copies of the vote tallies, the opposition has no way to challenge it. at least not yet. the us secretary of state antony blinken said he has "serious concerns" the result does not reflect the will of the venezuelan people". the eu's top diplomat, josep borrell, has called for "full tra nsparency". president maduro is unlikely to meet their demands. translation: which country

in the world, after receiving l 930 criminal sanctions, after having suffered what we have suffered, dares to call elections? we call them. they were carried out in an exemplary manner, and i can say before the people of venezuela, and before the world, i am nicolas. here are pictures i have been nicking up in the last five minutes these coming in from caracas, you can see protests and pictures of some people walking across the bridge bridges into caracas and pictures of burning tires as well. this looks like a rally of people on motorbikes in the city centre. joining us now is venezuelan opposition figure alejandro pena esclusa, a former presidential candidate who was jailed by hugo chavez, and now lives in exile. welcome to the programme. and this is the key point right now. challenging the results and recovering the tallies, that is

they have been robbed and the publisher knows that maduro was defeated in a huge process, so nobody likes him any more. he has created a humanitarian crisis. the 3rd of april position in venezuela had to flee of the country, so he is not giving any solutions, and everybody knows he robbed the elections, so people in venezuela are in the streets, and they are going to continue to be in the streets, and i believe that also, more international practice will start to coming, so the of international resistance and national resistance will make it impossible for it maduro to stay in power much longer. irate impossible for it maduro to stay in power much longer.— impossible for it maduro to stay in power much longer. we have seen revious power much longer. we have seen previous uprisings _ power much longer. we have seen previous uprisings like _ power much longer. we have seen previous uprisings like this - power much longer. we have seen previous uprisings like this that i previous uprisings like this that have been put down, why would this be different? for

is the only way to survive, so that is why the people are against the regime, and it does not make any sense that in that critical situation, maduro would obtain 51% of the vote. that is impossible, nonsense. of the vote. that is impossible, nonsense-— of the vote. that is impossible, nonsense. ,, ., , . ., , nonsense. the united states clearly has a stake — nonsense. the united states clearly has a stake in _ nonsense. the united states clearly has a stake in this, _ nonsense. the united states clearly has a stake in this, you _ nonsense. the united states clearly has a stake in this, you said - nonsense. the united states clearly has a stake in this, you said many i has a stake in this, you said many people have left the country, nearly 1 million have crossed the border into the united states are now living in the united states, so how should the white house respond? if you respond in a very strong minor, and say it was fraud, it should demand maduro to accept his defeat, because there are two matters involved in the security... national security of the united states. first, much more venezuelans would leave if my duress stays in power, which i think he will not, millions will go, millions will escape, and many will go to the united states,

and second, maduro is the mean ally of russia and iran in the continent, so he is using our territory to bring russian weapons and troops, and a and weapons to use venezuela, our territory, to threaten not only the united states but the western hemisphere, so it is a matter of security and defence of the united states to make sure that the will of the publishing is respected. that is all we ask. people voted against maduro so he much ago, he cannot rob the election and nothing can happen. mr gonzales was the one was allowed to run in this election, so many politicians and talents outside the country, you have lived in exile for many years, if things were to change, does venezuela have the means and talents to really become a

and yet the accounts that are emerging are truly horrifice. 11 million people forced from their homes. 19 million children unable to attend school. 26 million "food insecure,". a report published today, from human rights watch accuses both warring parties of raping women and girls as young as nine in the capital khartoum and the cities of 0mdurman and bahri. there are harrowing accounts of mothers trying to defend their daughters from attacks by armed men. the country is being torn apart by forces loyal to two former allies — abdel fattah al—burhan, who is the top commander of the sudanese military, and mohamed hamdan dagalo, otherwise known hemedti, the chief of the paramilitary rapid support forces. their antescendants were the janjaweed militia that reaked untold misery on non—arabs in darfur in 2003. joining us now is united nation population fund's sudan representative, argentina matavel piccin.

eastern areas of england. a weak weather front could bring an odd shower, really, to parts of scotland and northern ireland, although many places will probably stay dry. temperatures by the end of the night, down to around 12 to 15 degrees for most. 0n into tuesday's forecast, more of the same, really, for england and wales, the heat really building. looks like being the hottest day of this week. for northern ireland and scotland, a bit of patchy cloud, a few isolated showers across the far north possible, but most places will stay dry and fine. with temperatures getting well into the 20s here, it should feel quite pleasant. but a hot day for england and wales. top temperatures up to 32 degrees in london. the significance of that is the current highest temperature of the year so far is 31.9, so we're going to be there or thereabouts on tuesday for the hottest day of the year so far. for wednesday, again, a lot of dry weather, could be an odd isolated shower around, but for most, it's another fine day with warm spells of sunshine, hot weather continuing across parts of england in particular — temperatures 30 degrees or so in london. but then we see a change to thundery weather conditions on into thursday.

now, the amount of rain we're going to get from these thunderstorms on thursday is going to vary a lot from place to place. some places might not get very much, but others could see the best part of a month's worth of rain over the space of a few hours, and so there is the threat of seeing some flash flooding. we are going to firm up on the areas most likely to see that over the next few days. temperatures still well above average, but starting to come down a little bit. and then for friday and the weekend, this area of low pressure starts to influence the weather from the atlantic. now, around that, it will be quite windy across the north—west with plenty of showers. in the south, there's a question mark as to how much rain we eventually see. bye for now.
