>> welcome to the news hour. coming up in the next 60 minutes. a first look at isil fighters in the syrian town of kobane as turkish pour in reinforcements to take it over. and we're live in the capitol of pyongyang with details. and w hundreds of thousands are

forced from their homes in campaign violence in nigeria. >> the biggest suppor sport will continue in january despite officials calling to postpone in because of the ebola outbreak. >> so kurdish forces engage in a desperate battle in kobane, saying isil is sending in reinforcements. the fighters are pouring heavy tanks into the border. and it's been overrun again despite coalition airstrikes. isil continues to push further into can kobane from the south and east, where there is severe fighting. we have more pictures, and in the back ground and haze you can

see kobane movements with tanks going on the occur tissue side. now stevie decker has been in on the turkish syrian border. >> with just a couple of hundred meters away from the border with kobane, that is the eastern side of the town which is being held by isil. we're hearing military activity. there has been that--those sounds throughout the last couple of days when isil managed to get inside kobane especially on the eastern and southern side. what we are a he hearing from kurdish fighters that the front line has not really moved because this is such an guerrilla warfare. it's street by street that they push forward and then they're pushed back. we don't have a clear indication of how the front line is moving inside, but you can hear it from many advantage points where you can see the smoke rising, you can hear the arms fired and strong words from the u.n.

special envoy to syria urging turkey to open its borders to kurds who will go and help the fight. of course isil can resupply itself. it has access. when you talk geography and it will bring in more men. kobane has been surrounded from the east, from the south, and from the west for a very long time and of course the northern border is turkey. >> well, kurdish forces defending kobane has buried two of their members with isil fighters around 500 people. mostly ethnic kurds who fled the violence, they gathered to pay their respects. 500 have died from the john slot, and forced 200,000 to flee into the border into turkey. iraq is calling for help on the western province of anbar. we go to erbil in northern iraq. >> reporter: isil continues to control major urban centers now

iraqi officials are worried that the province of anbar could fall to isil within days. they're appealing for help. if that province helps it would be a set back for the government because airstrikes have not been able to stop this group. it is strategic why it borders request area, isil has an open supply line in both countries and borders the iraqi capitol. that really has been the target of isil for some time now. these airstrikes really not changing much on the ground yet here in the north kurdish forces have been able to recapture some territory but the battle lines have not shifted. now they've melted with the population in major urban centers. >> meanwhile in iraq isil is responsible for another mass killing. a cameraman was among 13 people shot dead according to media watchdog. he was targeted because he

refused to work for the group. religious minority have suffered at the hands of isil fighters. in august thousands of yazidis were forced to seek refugee on mount sinjar without food or water, now some of the young girls in the community are shedding light on the abuse they've faced at the hands of isil including slavery and forced marriage. >> those who didn't want to get married were married by force. whether they became a muslim or not. they insisted on marries us even offer to go live together then get married. >> they have forced hundreds of thousands of people to seek refugee in neighboring countries. the united nations is warning there has been a big rise of child marriages among refugees. girls as young as 13 are having children with men more than twice their age. we have reports now from zarqa.

>> reporter: she was 13 when she got married right after the war began. she's now 16 with a child of her own. the war forced her parents to marry her off to her cousin to make sure that someone would look after her. she was forced to drop out of school in the ninth grade. i invite any young girl to take education. i had my son so young. i didn't know what to do with him. when he cried and when he got sick, i had no clue. >> she was timid in the interview because her mother-in-law and husband were there. but in private she told me that pregnancy was an excruciating experience for her. there has been a sharp rise of child marriages between the ages of 15 to 17 among syrian refugees in jordan. if that's not enough the study also shows that half of these child marriages were to men who

were ten or more years older. ngos are concerned that marriage could leave young girls in abusive and exploitive situations. that's why they have designed programs aimed at child marriages and help those who mr. already married cope with challenges. 17 and divorced after a three-year abusive marriage. >> so many of us were crammed into a small space, and my ex-husband was violent. he would beat me and scream at me all the time. >> some syrian families find early marriage favorable for economic and safety reasons. early pregnancies have higher risks of complications and miscarriages. that's why aid agencies are looking to raise awareness.

>> we're looking at a generation of girls who will lose their future. their education is lost. they no longer going to school after being married. the cycle of poverty is transmitted from a generation to another. >> although early marriages have long been an accepted practice in syria it appears the war has encouraged them even more. and in the process shattered the dreams of many young syrian girls. >> three yemeni soldiers have been killed in an explosion to the east of the country. the blast occurred in the district shaban where three soldiers were killed. charged with inciting violence and killing protesters outside of the presidential palace in 2012. that i want took place seven months before the coup that

toppled him from trial. the trial has been adjourned until sunday. the yazidi member of the freedom and justice party has been sentenced to 15 years in prison. the preacher received a similar sentence. they were both accused of torturing a lawyer during the revolution in 2011. they are already serving long sentences after being convicted of frying to kill --trying to kill a policeman in the overthrow o of president morsi. >> after a three-week delay universities in egypt where are now open. outside this campus in cairo new gates have been built. and in an unprecedented move a

private security firm has been giving the job of guarding a number of universities. anyone who enters the campus is searched. but what is alarming activists say is the extra powers given to dean's of the ministries of higher education. they include the immediate dismissal of students and their professors if any of them participate in protest. egyptian media reported on other restrictions. this up in headline says final dismissal for students who consult president al sisi. while another reads universities rely on students to monitor and report rioters. the government is eagle for end protests. it passed new laws last year that banned protests without prior approval. since july 2013 supporters of the deposed president mohamed

morsi held protests demanding his return and an end to the military coup. president al sisi became president, but they continue to hold demonstrations on and off campus. students who attend egypt universities have a history of political activityism and that's why it could be hard to contain them. >> al jazeera continues to demand the release of its three journalists imprisoned in egypt. mohamed fahmy, bader mohammed, and peter greste have now been detained for 287 days, and falsely accused of aiding the outlawed muslim brotherhood. fahmy wa and greste was sentenced to seven years. bader mohammed was sentenced an extra three years because of a

spent pul bullet in his possession that he picked up from a protest. >> we'll see in india's football can compete in a country where cricket can king. >> the north korean state media says that high level talks are all but canceled. activists send around 200,000 pamphlets into north korea on friday. both sides traded fire across the heavily militarized border. we are joined live to the capitol of pyongyang. it has been the anniversary of the founding of the workers party, and celebrations have been taking place. >> well, yes, it's been a week of celebrations here in pyongyang and all around the country with people taking

flowers to their leaders. the founder of this republic kim sunkim jong-il. we have not seen parades this year. we were told that the big celebrations are expected for the next year for the 70's anniversary of the workers par party. >> and there has been no sign of north korea's leader kim jong-un. what is being said there? >> well, that is correct. it's been over a month since people here and all over the world they've seen leader kim tm jong-un, but people here are telling us that they know that their leader has been seen walking with a liverpool, that he can be sick, but they also tell us that he is a human being, he has a right to be sick, and they hope he'll be back on the scene really soon.

they know he's working behind the scenes, he's there for him. they miss him very much and they hope he'll be there soon. there have been rumors going around about what is happening here about pyongyang being shut down. one thing we do know, that we've been able to see we as journalists were allowed in the country. we've been moving around the city with different guides. and everything here in pyongyang seems normal. >> what is said about these balloons crossing the border from the south. there was gunfire traded and then these talks aren't taking place. >> well, what we're hearing here is that state media is reporting that until now the talks, the high-level talks that were supposed to take place on late october and november are right now on how would. they're saying that what seoul is doing, launching balloons

with leaflets is an act of aggression in this country. we've been talking to people and the issue of reunification is very much on people's minds he here. the maps here are showing the korean peninsula as one country. but people here are telling us as on as the united states remains in south korea there is not a possibility for peace here. >> reporting from pyongyang in north korea. >> the global ebola outbreak cannot be controlled out a massive international response according to united nations special envoy for ebola. more than 4,000 people have died in the outbreak. the majorities has been in west africa. the who said that 2,316 people have died in liberia, the

country worst effected. sierra leone ebola has killed 930 people in guinea where the outbreak began 778 people have died and eight have been killed in nigeria. well, aid agencies in sierra leone says the international community needs to invest far more money in fighting the ebola outbreak. sierra leone does not have the resources to treat of the ebola patients. on average there is one doctor for every 50,000 people. >> this is an ebola treatment center in western free town. it cares for people who have tested positive for the disease. though suspected of incubating the virus are set within the walls. those with full-blown disease are treated behind steel fences. >> at this moment there is a nurse's staff in one tent where they're providing one patient, and there is always another

person outside the activities that we're doing in the risk area. >> in this outbreak many of the people treating patients have themselves become infected from accidental contamination. that's something that the healthcare workers here take very seriously. >> and the treatment center you have to be careful. it's a risky job for the cleaners, the nurses and doctors. it's not easy to do the work inside. you have to take your time and take all the precautions. >> trying to contain the outbreak is especially hard for sierra leone. it is home to 6 million people. 75% of them live in poverty. the government spend $205 per person per year on health. and there are only 12 120 doctors. the other problem is disposing of the bodies of the victims.

they're highly contagious. and where to put the bodies every day bodies with layout in the open for some time. >> we use gloves, we use protective equipment, boots, chlorine. it's very risky. and it's a voluntary job to save our country. >> but if the people organizing the treatment center are correct, that on its own may not be enough. dominick cane, al jazeera. >> the unite--united states is set to begin screening passengers for ebola. they'll use thermal sensors from five airports. >> the government in cameroon says 27 hostages who were

captured earlier in the year have been freed. the group includes ten chinese nationals who have been taken to the town. the wife of cameroon's deputy prime minister was also released. she was abducted by the armed group in july. inside nigeria five years of violence in the northeast forced hundreds of thousands of people from their homes. once a refugee for victims of unrest. it's now a battleground for security forces. >> chaos and anger. this is the life led by thousands of people displaced by boko haram fighters in northern nigeria. and these are lucky to have a roof over their heads and occasional streets like second-hand items and food. family of five have lived a comfortable life, but she said that her world came crashing

down last year when boko haram fighters killed her husband. this camp is her third home in less than a year. >> after my husband was killed nothing mattered. we had a happy family, a home, and businesses. everything is gone now except the children. i try to help them, but i just don't have the strength to do this any more. >> she is one of hundreds of thousands of displaced people. this is one of the newest camps set up to cope with the rising number displaced in the northeast. it is home to over 500,000 people displaced because of boko haram. there are up to 6 million people forced from their homes in nigeria. >> they are struggling but the government said the displaced are being taken care of.

>> some of the displaced feel differently. john and eight members of his family fled to cameroon in january after boko haram attacked their town five times. three orvilleages he sought refuge i was also targeted. he has found a home 200 kilometers away from his last refuge. >> after being displaced four times we're afraid that boko haram will find us here. what help except what the church gives us and our health is suffering. >> reporter: the government is struggling to cope with displaced people. as they try to take back areas seized by boko haram fighters the feeling here is that the worst is about to come.

al jazeera, northeastern niger nigeria. >> flash floods have swamped these secrets in northern italy. the water dumped a meter of mud sending parked cars crashing in to run another. residents were left without electricity. more rain is on the way. and to this weather now what is the latest on those storms hitting asia. >> china is looking good but other side not quite. you see this massive cloud which is a typhoon heading to the main eye a lands of japan. we're looking at sunday into monday night before it makes its way through. the sustained winds of 150 kilometers, not quite as intense as it was. the equivalent of a storm at the moment. but it's moving ever so slowly and as it does so it will make

its way across japan. really over the next couple of days. the winds will continue to weaken, the rain will continue to intensify. you can see as we go on through sunday the wet and windy weather will make its way across and takes it's way further north. this is only monday. we're still in the southern half. it will be use before that system makes its way through. over the next two and a half three days some of these areas could easily see 300 millimeters of rain and that could lead to life-threatening mudslides as well. a little further westward we're concerned with our system making it's way across india. at the moment it's sustained 205 kilometers per hour. again we're looking at flash floods and damaging winds, nick. >> thank you very much, indeed. on to brazil where the largest cities are suffering it's worst

drought. conditions are so bad that vehicles dumped deep underwater have turned up on the shore. they're asking for help from the government. >> it's very sad to see it here like this. you see everybody here going bankrupt. not to mention the concern for the lack of water supply in the sao paolo supply. this is nature. >> we've never seen the water reach this level. i'm 31 years old, i've never seen the water so low. even the population is scared because no one has seen the water go this low. >> let's go to more from latin america. >> reporter: a bolivian naval vessel proudly flies it's colors

as it sets off parole not in an ocean but yes a lake. at more than 4,000 meters above sea level the world's highest navigatible lake. having it's navy relegated to this body of water is a humiliation endured by bolivia since 1979 when it lost its coast line to neighboring chile in the war of the pacific. at the naval base sailors learn the basics so whe. in the capitol we visit a school where patriotism class is underway. >> when the chilean ride they told him to surrender, and what did our hero answer? >> let your grandmother surrender. >> as you can see from a very early age these children are

taught that chile took away bolivia's rightful access to the sea, and when they grad rate the boys will have to do their obligatory service and there they will march around the lake, they will chant i want to bathe in the blood of chile ans, a want to belate in their sorrow. this is a wound that refuses to heal. after decades of frustrated attempt to resolve the corridor to the pacific. they have gone to the court of justice in the haig. using his speech before the united nations to make his case. his aggressive approach has angered neighboring chile but reaped dividends at home for

elections. >> easy the leader of that consensus. it brings him a lot of support in that country. >> a country that views the president's efforts as a national priority as it's children sing of their dream for a deep blue sea for bolivia. al jazeera, lapas. >> still to come on al jazeera we're live in haiti. can the funeral of a country's former leader lay to rest its troubling legacy. plus the weekend of protest is underway in missouri after another fatal shooting. we have sport coming up in 20 minutes or so. the kansas city royals first postseason in 29 years keeps getting better. we'll have all that next.

>> welcome back, you're watching al jazeera. here are our top stories. the u.s.-led coalition launched ten airstrikes in the last 4 hours in the support of kurdish fighters. former president mohamed morsi appeared on court

saturday. his trial was adjourned until sunday. >> north korean state media said that high level talks with the south have been canceled after pyongyang leaflets launched leaflets from across the border. both sides traded fire on friday. the united nations special envoy to libya is hoping to resolve the political crisis that has plagued the country for months. they say they're making gains in bengahzi. there has been more violence in that city as they have wrestled for control. here is that report. >> reporter: chanting to the overthrow of parliament, the one that sits in the easterncy of tibrok. there have been representatives and no government. these protesters in bengahzi oppose any foreign intervention and support libya's dawn an

alliance of conservative group that controls most of the country, including the capitol of tripoli. bengahzi has been a battleground for months. a car bomb killed one person. it's not clear who was the target. no single group is in charge here, but the terrorist group has made gains. >> we regret this internal survive that people of libya are dealing with. they dragged them in, and it has only caused them loss and tragedy. >> despite that claim the number of fighters appear to be growing. this video posted on the internet appears to show a stronghold. no support of the islamic state of iraq and lavant, which controls much of iraq and part of syria.

>> his cabinet space and legitimacy is being challenged in the supreme court. it's a stand off between elected politicians and those who claim to be defending the revolution drags on. the people of libya continue to suffer. al jazeera. >> let's take this on. we're joined in london by lecturer of the islam world. welcome to the program, sir. you've talked of isis in iraq and in syria, what's your sense of this talk of growing support you have libya? >> there seem to be indications that the is is making a leap from syria and iraq into north africa, there is another islamic

group who have explicitly pledged allegiance to i.s. with the parliament recently having sought refuge in the eastern parts of libya, they're now being chased by islamist movements. this is now becoming a security concern for neighboring egypt as islamic movements shift east wards. >> is there any coordination between the desperate groups in iraq and libya? >> that is very difficult to ascertain and establish especially in a fluid situation like this, and it has been the same with other movements like al-qaeda. given the role of media in particular social media in this time and age there is not always a need for coordination, and it is difficult often to

distinguish coordinated or orchestrated actions from simple copy catting. >> what possible interventions can take place to resolve the situation taking place? >> well of course egypt has vital interest in creating some stability in neighboring libya. the al sisi government would rather focus on getting egypt's economy back on track rather than constantly dealing with domestic or international security issues. an international coalition has become embroiled once again in libya while very busy in syria and iraq with not very concrete or clear gains being made there. i imagine there will be quite some reluctance internationally getting involved in yet another

hornet's nest. >> it's not just there. libya, syria, iraq, yemen, it is a very dangerous time. >> it is, indeed, a very insecure and destabilizing time. for egypt there is not only the western border with libya to worry about, there is also this famous black hole called the sinai desert where you have it being operational, and there is conceivably a possibility that i.s. after it switches its attention from the northern borders of syria, turkey and iraq, south wards to countries like jordan, possibly israel, that would bring them dangerously close to the sinai desert as well. >> thank you for your time. thank you very much, indeed. >> you're welcome. >> king phillippe has sworn in a new center right government under the government. s the second time in a row that

the dutch-speaking nationalist party has allowed a french-spe french-speaker lead the linguistically divided country. >> talks have been scheduled for friday but the hong kong government said that they would not be productive. in the u.s. town of ferguson, missouri. people are demanding justice for an unarmed teenager michael brown. he was shot dead by police in august. there have been days of unrest. we have more now from ferguson. >> this is the culmination of the first night of a weekend of protests. capitalized by the killing of michael brown, the black,

unarmed teenager in august by a police officer. they're hoping that thousands will gather on saturday and hope it all to end with a massive acted oact of protest disobedience. young black teenagers are killed at a rate 20 times higher than their white peers as a study revealed. there are seminars on race, economics, in a bid to understand and mobilize w mobilize the anger we saw on the streets in august. >> germany has been encouraged to boost it's spending when it comes to fixing things like roads and schools, they think it could help the european economy get going again.

nick spicer explains from berlin. >> there is a bumpy ride ahead. just ask one of the truckers who cross europe year round. he said that germany is full of potholes and half-finished repairs. >> in france the roads are so smooth and you can put a cup of coffee on the dash while driving. the roads are just perfect. >> in the capitol of berlin one in five bridges needs fixing. the main train station is only 12 years old but it needs work, too. high speed trains must slow down because support beams have loose screws. but if you listen to the government talk it's all under control and there is no need to go into deficit to keep things going. >> we'll invest $6.5 billion in roads, tracks, and waterways in this legislative period. $1.3billion already in this

coming year. >> that's not enough. the german government may see it's budget as prudent and an example to its neighbors running deficits, but the international monetary fund and the european central bank both say germany should be spending more, especially on infrastructure. they say that would help kick start european economies in the doldrums. even advisers counseling the government should be doing more if only for this country's sake. >> reporter: they say that germany is not doing as well as many think. >> simply to keep the value of the infrastructure up, see the gaps and in particular the area of public infrastructure. >> it has decided to switch to renewable energy in 2050 but it

lacks the power to make that work. nick spicer, al jazeera. berlin. >> the funeral of jean-claude duvalier, known as baby doc, died of a heart attack a week ago. human rights groups say that duvalier is responsible for the torture and death of thousands of people. we report now from port-au-prince on his controversial legacy. >> port-au-prince's grand cemetery. human remains lay scattered and coffins desecrated, and little remains of what was once a grand memorial. >> trouble broiled up in haiti as duvalier refused to step down. >> but papa doc duvalier's rule pitched haiti into chaos.

some hoped it would end when he died and made his son jean-claude duvalier president for life. but under baby doc, as he became known, little changed. after 15 years in power he was exiled in 1986 only to return 25 years later welcomed by many and invited to official events by haiti's current president. jean-claude duvalier's former lawyer said that baby doc is greatly misunderstood and did much for haiti. >> people get poorer here after duvalier leave. in days of insecurity, we didn't know these words when duvalier was in power. >> but like his father baby doc used his power to "pres oppress

opponents. >> i lived most my youth in terror to the point where i got to the home and i was talking to my father and mother in whisper. because duvalier has an incredible network of spies. >> the duvalier's led haiti for almost 30 years and at great costs. continues of thousands were tortured and killed while both father and son led lavish lifestyles. but they remain divisive characters. some feel loss, and many more are simply too young to remember. >> both duvalier's died free men, and for many victims that is an injustice. his grave now lace vandalized and empty, some say is a proper epitaph for a man who did so much harm. >> the funeral is actually under

way now? >> reporter: it has started. it's not a state funeral. it's just a funeral for family and friends. we have seen powerful people turn up, former generals. no one from the government. but you can hear people singing rousing hymns. many supporters here, including his partner and his son, who is a current aide in the government, but he remains a divisive character here. we arrived the day it was announcedthe day after it was announced that he died from a heart attack. many people said that life under jean-claude duvalier was better, there was more respect to each other. there was no security, of course, but it depends on who you talk to. if you talk to the victims of

the duvalier regime, they feel cheated by his death. he was facing charges when he got back here in 2011. that court case all ground to a halt. but today at least at this church it's all about remembering the former president. we know there are possibly some other protests going on in port-au-prince. >> he was notorious in life and given those divisions that you described you wonder how he will be remembered by history. >> well, really, the thing you have to remember about haiti at the home is that third of the population is below the age of 15. many more are in their 20s and simply don't remember the rule of jean-claude duvalier. he left in exile in 1986. he lived in paris for 25 years and reportedly with money he stole from the haitian government. he does remain a divisive character. we've met plenty of his victims over the past few days who feel cheated that they didn't see

justice and that he died a free man. many are looking for prosecution posthumously. >> reporting from port-au-prince in haiti. the qualifying of the inaugural russian grand prix.

>> let's move on to sport. >> thank you very much. organizers in africa say that they will not postpone it because of the spread of ebola.

their decision comes despite morocco making an official request. it seems that some of the worst affected nations could qualify for the event which will attract 8,000 fans when it was held last year. they will meet in november to discuss their concerns. well, a statement released by the confederation of african football said that they have registered the request to state there are no changes of schedule of the competitions and events. caf has applied precautionary principles and taking in account the "world health organization" and various medical experts. well, food across the continent has been badly affected by the ebola outbreak over recent months. in july liberia stopped all football to stop the spread of the virus.

in sierra leone, the team refused entry to seychelles. in nigeria they've struggled to find neutral vaughns t venues to host their home games. i spoke with gary smith who explains how caf would come to their decision. >> we have three matches to go for some of the countries at the moment. the tournament is in january. what are you going to do? are you going to sto to tell them to stop playing? neutral countries can always be found. but for the tournament proper, let's host the tournament and make sure that the numbers coming in are screened for precautionary measures. that's all they're going to say.

i seriously doubt that tournament will be postponed. >> given morocco's stance to host the tournament, guinea will play ghana in casa plan can. and sierra leone will play cameroon and they were forced to restrict their delegation to 40 people including players. the team claim to be being treated by pariahs, and now hotel staff and journalists have said away from them. they have tried to reassure the fans. >> at the medical level we're very well informed. we know what was done to protect players, the team and it's environment. for me it's very, very important to be careful. >> now the nation known for its love of cricket but on sunday india will launch a brand new football competition the indian super league. eight franchise also compete in

the three-month tournament. the clubs are owned by bollywood stars, investors and cricketers including one of the all-time indian greats sachin and sourav ganguly. former france arsenal football footballer. while mumbai city has signed up nicolas anelka. >> this is a rare sight in india. in mumbai, a city of 18 million

people this is the only dedicated football field. but these kids might have a head start in becoming the next big thing. the indian super league is set to begin featuring up five international football players in each team. those behind the league say high television ratings for the world cup and various european leagues proof that indian fans want football. >> a lot of football players coming in to india. >> many of the international players, including world cup winners, are no longer in their prime, but the head of the league say they will help in creating an appeal for the sport in india. >> ultimately obviously that's what the aim is, to make it stronger. i think we have to start at the bottom of the pyramid. that's where we want the clubs and franchisees to concentrate on the grassroots. that's what we were lacking.

>> football isn't that popular here in india as it is in the rest of the world. but as a new league starts up it not only has to compete against other sports for attention but also for money. >> cricket dominates sports from india. from a young age all the way to professional levels. to counter that and whip up excitement the indian super league has sought the help of bollywood to help draw fans and funds. >> this brand expert said that the excitement of international players will only last for so long and creating local champions is one of three important steps to the league's success. >> the fans start consuming the sport, playing it, and not but not least, sponsors. if these three things happen, i think it will sustain it. >> the these kids are training to be india's football stars of tomorrow. and if the new league scores

with fans they may have a popular venue to show off their skills. al jazeera, mumbai. >> well, earlier i spoke with the editor of indian football fever pitch. he side while he expects the new league to be a success more could have been done in the past to make football more popular. >> football, as you know, is a very popular sport. we hav--it's a very discrete game in the country, and the fan following has helped immense. but the point is the population is not getting the football. here is the main gap, while the

states or capitol or other reasons whic. they're trying to bring spectate tours football. they've done very well, and they'll bank on it, so this is ultimately a good move from a business point of view. >> the united states all-time leading goalscorer has played his last in national football match. landon donovan was the captain in the 158th and final appearance. he played a part in the usa's only goal in the 1-1 draw with ecuador. he will continue to play in major league soccer until the end of the season. >> i put a lot in to this game

over many years, and tonight feels like it was all worth it. so i'm very grateful. >> former spain star officially on the books of the new mls club new york city fc. but they won't be playing their first game until next march. the 32-year-old has been shipped off to their sister club until the end of the year. he scored on his debut in their season opener. that finished 1-1. the a-league club was prosecut purchased earlier this year. formula one at the russia grand prix in sochi.
