back the streets. >> and i'll have all your sports - including australian cricketer phil hughes still critically ill after being hit by a bouncer in sheffield shield game. doctors have just given an update on his position. we'll have the latest in sydney. >> we begin this newshour in the united states, where there has been another night of angry protests in ferguson, missouri. it follows a grand jury decision not to bring criminal charges against a white police officer for shooting a black teenager. anger is spread from coast to coast with people coming on to the streets from new york to los angeles. [ chanting ] >> reporter: the anger boiled over in dozens of cities across the united states. this crowd in the capital washington d.c. is condemning a jury's decision not to indict a

white police officer who killed an unarmed black teenager in ferguson in august. the sentiment was echoed across the country. most protests were peaceful, like this in times square. in missouri, people turned violence. the center of the riots. people threw everything they could at the police headquarters. the rioters targeted the cars, hundreds of the members were called in to maintain order. >> the police described the unlawful assembly. >> there has been cases of looting, cars set on fire, and people fighting in the street. there has been calls for calm by the family of the dead teenager, michael brown. despite the u.s. president repeating the calls, there has been more violence. >> i have no sympathy at all for destroying your own communities.

but for the over all majority that feel frustration and pain, bus they get a sense that some are not scene as worthy as others... >> this is the man at the center of protests, officer darren wilson. maintaining that he shot michael brown when the teen charged at him. the teenager's family said brown was killed by a disproportionate amount of force. >> i used my door to push back. as i looked back at him, purges start flying. >> he flew the first punch. >> yes. >> it hit me in the left side of my face. i reached out the window of my right hand to grab onto the forearm. i'm no longer trap. when i felt it, i felt the immense power, and it was like a 5-year-old. that's how big this man was. demonstrators accused the police of deep-rooted discrimination

against african-americans and minorities. they are calling for the protests to end peacefully and bring about change. that's what many of the people hope to achieve let's get an update from the situation in ferguson, and speak to daniel lak. there were more protests, but calmer on tuesday night. >> yes. not nearly the scenes that happened on monday in the hours after the grand jury announcement. i guess various reasons for that. the hot blood, the spontaneity. people may have been expecting it. as it came it was a slap in the face. tonight it's colder than it was on monday, and it will probably snow and have freezing rain. it may enter into it. the 2000 national guards, lots

of police, it was a big presence on the police. put all that together and you have a calmer night. police were happy. >> we heard from darren wilsonment the police officer at the center of the controversy. what has been the reaction to the comment? >> i would say grave disappointment. activists they entered on local media. they spoke to michael brown's friend. a person with him at the time that darren wilson shot him. he said that they totally disagreed with the officer's version of event, it was a he said, she said situation. most people we spoke to said they would have liked to have heard some expression of

remorse, reyet, that a life had been ended. they heard self justification. i'm not going to say it inflames things, we saw a calmer night than monday. certainly it disappointed those aware of the comments. >> while the u.s. president obama called for calm as protests continue around the nation, patty culhane reports. >> reporter: for 34 years hannah has done this. feed the people of her community. she says it's been getting harder. >> it's true. the middle class don't have anything. and they are constantly every month taking people, downsizing them. deleting them from the welfare role. >> it's not just the images.

statistically across the country the community continues to struggle even drawing president obama's time in office. it's still over 12%, and increasing numbers, 41% of whites, 41% of blacks feel that race relations are bad. it's a dramatic increase from six years ago when the first african-american president seemed to indicate a change in race relations. as presidents say in the past was not a race for victory. frustrations that we have seen are not about a particular incident, they have deep roots in many communities of colour, and have a sense that the laws are not used uniformly.

it's not just made up. >> reporter: he's promising a renewed push to help the african-american community. he gooefs will get better, even if he stands in line. >> i'm hopeful and willing for that note. i see it. i see the future. >> like generations before her, she hopes it will be different, if not for her, for her son. >> in other world news - in iraq, there has been an attack by quil fighters on the mosul dam. the site is held by the kurdish troops but has been the scene of intense fighting. let's get the latest. imran khan, the battle for the mosul dam quite intense. what are you hearing about what is happening? >> what we have been told in the last few moments from a kurdish military source from the peshawar, that this was a major

attack on the dam. beginning around 11:00pm, where two i.s.i.l. bombers attacked the craig berube forces and i.s.i.l. fighters moving in closer to the dam. there are varying figures on how i.s.i.l. fighters are involved, anything between 240 i.s.i.l. fighters. they moved in to the dam. the kurdish peshawar forces fought back, and 40 minutes into the fight coalition air strikes came in hitting i.s.i.l. position, beating i.s.i.l. back. and that is the sum of what had happened. that took five or six hours at least with the news coming to us in the morning when first light broke. mosul dam is crucial. where iraq's life line effectively is. if you control them, you control the waters into much of iraq.

it's important. it was taken over by i.s.i.l. when it swept through iraq, kurdish forces took it back from i.s.i.l. around august. there has been clashes in and around, nothing of the seize in the last 24 hours. >> imran khan with the latest there from baghdad. >> in syria. government air strikes killed 95 people. the bombing targeted the city of raqqa, the main stronghold of i.s.i.l. activists say many of the victims were civilians. >> reporter: this is what it looks like inside raqqa after the northern syrian city was hit by a series of air strikes. cars set alike, buildings destroyed. as people pick through the charred remains of their homes, they must be wandering where it will end. they targeted busy markets.

other public buildings, including the museum and the mosque were hit. activists say many of the victims were women and children. it has been targeted by the u.s.-led coalition, and forces loyal to bashar al-assad's regime. syrian government air strikes have increased since u.s. forces started attacking i.s.i.l. positions in september. >> what we see was the impression that he is working in coordination with the international coalition, which is something that leaves the syrian people thinking that they are alone with a dictator, against the russian coalition, it doesn't do anything to stop him, and i.s.i.l., which is another foreign entity that came and devastated the syrian people. >> the people, the situation, is getting detroit.

one tweeted in the morning, bashar al-assad air strikes, on the ground i.s.i.s. kills you. >> the bashar al-assad regime launched 1500 air strikes across syria. in raqqa, volunteers collect the bodies of the dead bracing for more attacks. this is the reality of life in rafah while there's a renewed diplomatic effort to revive the police process, this time from russia, the foreign minister is in sochi for talks with the russian counterpart. zeina khodr, the russians trying to revive the peace process. what are they hoping to achieve. >> there were talks in geneva. they failed. now the russians are hoping to find a political settlement. they have been holding meetings,

with opposition members, with the former head of the syrian national coalition. what russia wants to do, they are aware that the international community wants a settle: they are worried that maybe the war would widen, they are trying to take advantage of this, so that no outside settlement would be imposed. what is this initiative about. it's about forming a national unity government. it have powers, they'll draft a constitution and be multiparty elections, parliamentary and presidential elections. we are back to square one. in this initiative. bashar al-assad with le allowed to contest the vote. >> not accepted by the west end. what about the bashar al-assad government.

are they open to a unity decision. >> they are close. even before, they arrived to moscow. he made the position clear. they do not see eye to eye. he said we will not be pressured or persuaded to accept anything we do not see. the syrian government feels that they do not compromise, they are the upper hand on the ground. the moderate rebels have been weakened not just by government attacks, but other groups. there's almost no opposition on the ground. what the government is hoping is that the international coalition will see them, the partners and the fight against i.s.i.l. now, let's go to yemen, where there has been an attack on the main oil pipeline halting the flow of the export terminal.

it was on a trch the pipe in the oil field in the plov jips, to the capital. there has been a stand off. the sunnis believe the houthis are trying to gain more territory, and the houthis want to stop al qaeda from gaining control of the site. egypt says it's finished clearing a buffer zone along the border. 802 houses were demolished. the creation of a buffer zone is port of the government's efforts to stop trucks being trafficked across the border al jazeera demands the release of our three journalists. peter greste, mohamed fadel fahmy and baher mohamed were gaoled on false charges of helping the outlawed muslim brotherhood. they are appealing against their convictions. there is more ahead on the al

jazeera newshour. we will continue to follow the latest on the shooting of an unarmed black teenager, and whether the justice system is fatally flawed. >> and live to democratic republic of congo, to a hospital set up to treat rape victims. >> in sport. we have a story coming up later about lionel messi. it looks like the end for hong kong's protest movement. at least in its present form. hundreds of police have taken part in the main site. leaders have been arrested. rob mcbride has more from hong kong. for many a rude awakening. declaring that this was the day

they have to move out. r ujs da, our confrontation with student leaders who complain of excessive police force. i believe it will cause support for the students. >> a few minutes later he was under arrest again, one of the first to be grabbed when police cleared the barricade, pushing demonstrators back. >> because the force of the police is too strong for us. we have no weapons. >> reporter: the police tactic at the moment seems to be to advance a few meters, and remove whatever obstacles are there, and arresting everywhere who obstructs them. they are moving the demonstrators back to a smaller and smaller area. >> the protest camp has been the site of some of the worst confrontations, especially between protesters and local people. many applauded the actions.

>> are you happy? >> yes. >> even among the supporters of the campaign for democracy, they have been growing satisfaction. after two months of occupying roads with no apparent success much >> reporter: is this the end of the movement? >> no, absolutely not. it's only the beginning. >> the occupation of other sites continues, but the demands for democracy go unheeded. the symbol looks battered well let's speak to joseph challenge, a political scientist at the university of hong kong. what do you think is happening there. tents have come down, is this the end of the movement, occupy central in other groups, have they lost their battle, basically. >> not exactly. i think hong kong people want democracy. at the same time the organizers.

the political parties have to take into consideration the rising resentment on the part of the ordinary people against the disturbances and inconveniences caused by the occupation campaign. there's a need to respond to the dissatisfaction and maintain support and the momentum of the campaign. this is difficult. you have divisions among the protesters. >> you say hong kong people want democracy. have the demonstrations that have been going on since september, have they achieved anything at all. will we see a softer stance from beijing, when it comes to the politics of hong kong or has it hardened the resolve. the pro-democracy groups and the

people of hong kong do not accept concessions from beijing in the foreseeable future. that made the campaign difficult. it's certainly difficult to maintain without concrete achievement in the foreseeable future. the divisions within the movement, some protesters, specially the young people. they want to hang on, no achievements have been made. on the other hand, the other groups, especially the political parties, they want to retreat so as to maintain popular support. >> the young people showed a lot of determination in the last few months. what are their grievances and hopes for the future. >> they are certainly - they are ready to sacrifice.

they are also suffering from various types of grievances relating to social injustice, such assist declining mobility, opportunities, limited job prospects. extreme difficulty, and yet they want to show the world and beijing that they didn't want hong kong to be reduced to another big city in mainland china. they want to show the spirit of hong kong. >> thank you so much. it's good to hear your thoughts. >> let's get on update. steph, we are going to brazil. >> it's a city we were talking about the drought it had had, and the rains had started. if we take a look at the satellite. we can see the cloud stretching

across brazil and it had been given downpours. sao paulo is one of the cities hit. they can just about make it through the streets as can the cyclist here. later in the evening as the rains got worse and the floodings got worse these people were not going anywhere and the commute home was a nightmare. as we head through the next few days, there'll be more rain. this is the climate chart. this is what you expect every month, what you expect. you can see generally we expect drier periods around april through september, and the rains begin to pick up. we are in the beginning of the wetter season. we are expecting a lot of heavy rain over the next few months. we need the rain. we are in the worst drought for 80 years, and one rain event is

not going to help matters. what we can do with is a summer time that is wet. over the next few days we'll see a lot of heavy downpours. nudging eastwards over the next few days. >> thank you very much indeed. >> burial workers? sierra leone have been sacked after dumping bodies in the streets in a pay dispute. they said they haven't been paid an extra fee for handling ebola bodies. the risk of infection is high during burial. it killed more than 5,000 in guinea and liberia. >> staying with africa, a doctor from the democratic republic of congo is to be honoured for his work with victims of sexual assault. he will be awarded the freedom of thought. he runs a hart in the city of kabul in the easement. let's go live. where they are standing by.

tell us about where you are. about what this means to the people there? >> that's right. there's a heavy rain storm going on. we are in a shelter in the grounds of the hospital. it's a unique place. there's nowhere in the world that treated more women for injuries sustained during rape and gang rape. they tweeted over 30,000 in 1990. it was in '96 when uganda and rwanda invaded congo. instability and rape have been big problems. they are arriving here every day. we spoke to some of them. let's look at the story now. >> reporter: this woman was going to collect crops from the farm. her hip was injured so badly she couldn't walk.

we changed her name and covered her face. >> after they were done with me, they raped my mother-in-law with sticks. we fought hard, and today it ached a lot. >> reporter: she's three months pregnant. one of the attackers is the father. now she can walk again. we spoke to her in the grounds of the hospital in the democratic republic of congo. it's founded and run by a ginoocologist. through his work he's become a leading expert on treating women. the women in this ward are recovering from surgery, many suffering severe and permanent injuries. the people working here say it's busier while the area is more heated. this is one of the few areas they can get this kind of treatment. thousands of women here are in need. how the decades raped by

soldiers and civilians is widespread. they learnt how to treat survivors, but he said something needs to be done to stop the perpetrators. >> he perceived many victims of violence. enough is enough. the government needs to provide security and the international community needs to help, to end this once and for all. the european union has awarded him for his work. that goes behind medical treatment. they have learnt to make hand crafts for money and get counselling too. those rejected by their husbands stay. singing hymns lift the mood. at least here they get the help they need and a chance to rebuild their lives.

with me is the women's rights activist who works with survivors, here at the hospital. firstly, why is sexual violence so common in the conflict here. can you help explain the reason that people commit acts of sexual violence here? if you could answer the question, explain why it is that sexual violence is common in eastern congo's conflict. >> this situation of dfc, regarding the armed conflict, has been the most - the fifth cause of sexual violence in dfc regarding the difference, foreign groups, who are in dfc and, of course, there are local

militias. but we have noticed that many cases of sexual violence have been committed by foreign and groups, coming from neighbouring countries such as rwanda, gar undera and barruedy. that is why we think. this is the -- that's why the question should not be let on and regarding the great lakes region, they have to focus on that. >> let me stop you and ask what role other countries beyond the region have in trying to bring sexual violence to an end. >> let's say he's gone beyond the dfc borders regarding the different actors. that's why the great lakes

region has protected that question with much effort and we see how this can bring piece, and on the other hand, we have the international community which has to focus on the question because, you know, if there is no peace in gfc there cannot be peace in the region. let me stop you there. >> back to you in the studio there. >> okay. thank you so much. mehabubnagar reporting live from the east of the democratic republic of congo there is plenty more ahead on the al jazeera newshour. including the home grown threat for sweeping anti-terrorism with powers over activities. new evidence that eating too

much cancer. details coming up. in sport, while the latest on the n.b.a., and all the action is coming up. back after the

welcome back. you're watching the newshour on al jazeera. a reminder of the top stories. syria and rafah have been targeted in air strikes, as the

syrian foreign minister is holding talks with a russian counterpart. they are close allies. >> police in hong kong dismantled barricades, pulling down tents and clearing protesters. demonstrators blocked it since late september. >> and our top story - dozens of people have been arrested following a second night of protests in ferguson, missouri. there has been demonstrations following a grand jury decision not to indict police officer darren wilson, who shot and killed unarmed black teenager michael brown in august. he said he did his job right there are protests in 30 cities from new york to los angeles, baltimore to boston. people came out on the streets to vent their anger. the pictures are from oat land in california. where protesters face off with police. there were looting, and roads

were blocked. this is the scene in the capital. the crowd crew to 1,000 in the town down area. it is a professor of law and an expert in civil litigation. she is the founder of the civil rights and restorative project, and north-eastern university. he says that the legal process was one-sided. >> this is a complete miscarriage of justice. it adds salt to the wound. michael brown's death back in august. it was once famously said by a judge that any prosecutor worth his salt would indict a ham sandwich. the prosecutor went into the process with a few that the grand jury would cover for him. that is - does seem to be what transpired. this is an unusual proceeding to take this kind of a case to a

grand jury, and to lay out the defense in this manner. if you think about what the - that the tables have been turned. it's been michael brown who was before the grand jury, and who was explaining that this was all a consequence of defense. there's no way in the world that he would not have been indicted and turned over to a full trial, and both sides would have had their attorneys and put forward the trials on both side and would have determined the result. in this case there was clearly probable cause to indict. evidence to the effect that the police officer overstepped and - in a very, very serious way, that could be criminal. in, yet, the security was allowed to hear this side.

essentially without any push back from those that may take a different view of his testimony. >> columbian rebels cleared two soldiers. a general and two others are being held by the f.a.r.c. . >> germany's chancellor angela merkel accused russia of trampling on international law. angela merkel has been at the forefront, telling the parliament that patience will be need the. >> let's go live to nick spicer. strong language from angela merkel. tell us what she's had to say? >> she said that it was time for russia to stop the director indirect involvement in the fighting in donetsk and luhansk, because russia denies troops in

eastern ukraine. n.a.t.o., and the united states and european countries think that that is the case. over the past few weeks, it's safe to say they have run out of patience, going by comments published in the german press. she confronted others, notably australia and italy, running into denials of the reality on the ground as germany sees it and dodges. germany has been critical. pushing for sanctions and dialogue with russia, looking for an off ramp. angela merkel fighting with vladimir putin three dozen times. nick spicer reporting live from berlin. now a picture making the rounds on social media. a plane processed to the runway,

frozen to the runway. minus 22 celsius, minus 52. those are passengers asked to give it a push. the u.k.'s government is facing an unprecedented number of terrorists. threats preventing 40 major parts since 2005. we have more from london. >> reporter: here it seems is one of the new front lines in the british government's campaign against people and newspapers called home grown terrorist. university campuses says the governments are not only to stop extremists, they'll have to prove it too. and the government will hold them to their word. >> when the security agency tells us the threat is more dangerous than before, we should take notice.

after careful analysis and thorough preparation where we can tighten the laws and tougher the powers and capabilities. many universities say they are doing their duty, particularly if the alternative issues are denied. >> what we don't have is genuine difficult debate to go underground. having it in the open it keeps it safe. it can be regulated, looked into. people can feed back into the members of staff. >> what gives you life is jihad. >> the government things the time is right. specifically because is number of british men have gone off to fight i.s.i.l. in iraq. the new rooms won't allow them to come back home. the incident in london n which a soldier was hacked to death. the government says it wants

better access to internet providers. this week the government suggested the attack might have been prevented if powers are existed. >> in the end the bill is placed directly on to the community. local authorities to answer directly to the government. in its fight against terrorism. many people send it as a good thing, a form of national service. to others it's a direct assault on the civil liberties. >> this government and the previous government are attempting to use the law, the criminal law and other laws as a blunt instrument to manage the muslim community, to manage their views, their ideas, their education. in fact, every aspect. if possible it's a crude way of redefining the religion. >> with a few exceptions people known to security - every muslim

organization in the u.k. condemned i.s.i.l. the underlying suggestions is that the government is unconvinced that the muslims can convince themselves the united nations has called on all sides in libya not to undermine the political process a special representative told al jazeera he was concerned about the use of force on the streets of the main cities. dominic kane reports. >> this is the effect of the fighting in benghazi. the once busy streets are battle ground. these are the districts in the north of the city. for the past month, the libya group fought general khalifa haftar for control. the spokesman insists he has the upper hand. >> all of you fighting in benghazi, the residents and the nationalist use.

they were the first to fight the terrorists. the situation is good. we are taking control. >> it is disputed. in recent days libya's fighters attacked bases around the city's airport. a target that is of importance to both sides. it's a similar story. this week the forces bombed tripoli's second airport. the airport is in the hands of forces that support the general national congress. a supreme court ruling left the government of the g.n.c. as the only legitimate one in libya. >> the national salvation government that has always been the peace. now we are threatening to embrace the policy of war and armed confrontation. the united nations expressed concern about the air strikes against the airport.

>> it's a step in the wrong direction. a near step against the political dialogue, and once against the united nations would like to call all libyans, and those who are using force not to do anything to undermine the political process. >> but with rival groups fighting in the streets, the u.n.'s perfect political process seems a long way off in pakistan two health workers have been killed and two others injured on an attack in baluchize stan. workers are trying to vaccinate 2 million children. pakistan is one of three countries. thousands of pakistanis fled to afghanistan's province trying to escape the ongoing pakistani army. families are living in makeshift

camps in areas with mines and iuds, as the winter sets in the conditions. they tolerate. they stack mud brings against the tent. they have little else to protect their family against the cold thanks to the afghanistan border. we are trying to protect ourselves. aid arrived. it's not our turn yet. we'll have to wait. there's one of tens of thousands who have fled fighting in the pakistani military. >> they had little choice but to break the border. there is a risk of attacks by the afghan taliban. as winter comes, basic protection against the elements is a serious concern. >> some people don't have tents. we get 200 kilos of wood.

it's not enough for 10 days. this winter lasts three months. >> this is one of the schools in the camp, the corrigated iron roof and a car pit. they have been warned about another hidden danger. land mines. when the snow comes, finding and removing the explosive devices will be more difficult. there are many anti-tang and anti-land mines in the area. these are the fighters the pakistan military is targetting. after months of peace efforts between islamabad and pakistani taliban the military launched an offensive. hundreds of thousands were forced to attack the area. there are security concerns among aid agencies.

>> there has been a form of explosives. it seems clear that we have been able to continue the operations, that there is a strong link to the communities. we are trying to reach as many people as possible. the snows are expected in the next few weeks. they'll be representing a fraction of those. >> the u.n. says 7.5 million people are in need. including those vulnerable to violence and food insecurity. 200,000 fled across the border. it's the latest refugee crisis in a country experiencing four decades of continuous conflict. >> still ahead in sport. sergio to the rescue in the

champion's league.

welcome back, a report from the world health organization, saying that obesity is the course of half a million new cases each year. in 20123.6% of patients developed cancer because of her high body mass index. global leaders show that it is more common in developed countries. it is the most affected region. where 23% of cases after

overwait. equating to 100,000 people a year. >> let's talk now. one of the studies lead authors, via skype. thank you for bean on al jazeera. explain to us the link between high body mass index and cancer. why is that being obese or overweighed is a risk of cancer. >> so, first of all, this link is not new. it's been known for a while. we knew for a while that obesity can cause cancer. the underlying mechanism differs. if we take breast cancer, we know that hor mopes that are produced, it can lead to cancer development. >> are they particular types of cancers more prevalent among

overweight and obese people. >> absolutely. we know, for example cancer of the womb, colon cancer. cancer of the pancreas and a couple of others. >> we talked about some of the regions, where in the world do you find the highest rate of cancer related links to obesity and being over weight. >> the most affected region was north america. 111 cases in 2012. we saw a hybrid country. such as where in africa. such as in latin american counties and in the middle east. and for example, in saudi arabia, or juniored yn, where we found one in 10 cancers is associated with obesity.

>> what then do you think is the solution to dealing with this type of cancer. obviously you can tell people to be careful about their weight and so on. is it going to work. is it sufficient? >> so it bears w.h.o. recommendations recording the reduction of overweight and obesity, and maintaining healthy diet, meaning limiting the intake of fats and sugar and high consumption of food and vegetables and engaging in regular activities is the key components. but then, of course, we need action on the societal level, meaning we need political commitment to enable people to follow those recommendations. we hope people hear the recommendations. thank you all right.

time to catch up on the sport. >> thank you very much. australian cricketer phil hughes remains in a critically ill condition in hospital after being struck by a ball during a domestic sheffield shield game. he collapsed whilst hit by a bouncer when batting for south australia at the new south wales cricket ground. he had emergency surgery at a sydney hospital to relieve pressure. wednesday he had scans, he remains in an induced coma. >> philip's condition is unchanged and he remains critical. if there are any further developments we'll let you know immediately. thank you. >> well also on wednesday some of hughes' australian team-mates met at cricket new south wales headquarters in sydney, where they received counselling and support following tuesday's event. reporter andrew thomas has the

latest. >> reporter: the sydney hospital where philip hughes has been treated has been giving updates on his condition. each time it is the same. hughes remains critical in an induced coma. it's not necessarily the bad news. regular scans have been done to check his brain. it could be the results before those are public. australian cricket captain michael clarke has been to visit hues. the south australian cricket team hughes was playing for returned from sydney to his base in adelaide. those are offered counselling as is the new south wales flare who bowled the ball. a few details emerged of where the ball hit hughes. it seems it found the one spot. just below the ear. the manufacture of that helmet said they've updated it. but that it's impossible to

offer full protection and still ensure the flexibility that means a batsman can bat. >> pakistan's batsmen make a solid start in the third test match. after winning the toss. it hit a century, remaining not out. pakistan 186 for three in the first innings, leading the 3-match series 1-0. another game, another record for lionel messi. he has become the champion's league highest all-time scorer after his hat-trick. luis suarez got things going for barca, with his first goal for his new club, and then came the record breaker, taking him past the 71 goals, and he went on to score a couple more as barca finished 4-0 winners. >> they topped the champion's league goal-scoring chance.

he played 91. it's not too much a goal a game. the spaniard needs 142 appearances to reach the goal mark. >> they moved after their success. cristiano ronaldo is currently in third place. the portuguese forward would take to the field for his club. four goals short of lionel messi. that figure does not include a goal in the mann united round. cristiano ronaldo played 16 times more in the competition for the two clubs. well some of the other games - manchester city hailed sergia agero as a special player, after scoring a hat-trick. he scored the first of three with a first-half penalty.
