we will be able to see change. >> gripping. inspiring. entertaining. talk to al jazeera. tomorrow, 6:30 eastern. only on al jazeera america. >> announcer: this is al jazeera. hello, welcome to the newshour, i'm martine dennis in doha. these are the top stories - houthi rebels push further south towards the president's stronghold. libyan peace talks on the verge of collapse as fighting rages for control of the capital. a warning that indonesia's

growing population is demographing time bomb. >> in sport, one of the six nations closest finishes. in ireland - retaining the northern hemisphere's biggest title for the first time in 70 years. we start this newshour in yemen where houthi rebels have taken over the airport in tiaz the third largest city. they fired gunshots in the air to disperse anti-houthi rally. the fighters are pushing for the capital. the president is trying to hold on to power. witnesses say anti-aircraft guns have opened fire at an unidentified plane that was plying over president abd-rabbu mansour hadi's compound. the united states has given this

as an explanation for pulling out their forces: these yemenis have no idea who is running their country right now. they say they are sure of one thing. houthi rebels from the north seen entering the city of tiaz are not welcome. >> they want to drag us into war, and we refuse. with every hour war appears to be getting closer. the houthis reportedly have taken the airport. they are fighting for the right of all yemenis. they are heading towards aden where the ousted president fled to after being held prisoner for weeks by the houthis.

>> i stress the following - firstly, the evacuation of all armed militias from the military secondly the withdrawal of all gunmen from the city and other cities. the united states shut down its embassy and now is pulling troops out of an air base in the south. this makes all the troops a limited number of troops specifically to take on the war or a fight against al qaeda in the peninsula. they don't want the forces caught. friday's attack gave us a glimpse of what that could mean for ordinary people in the arab world's poorest country. yemen is a country where many feel unsafe. there hasn't been this kind of chaos in its recent history

meanwhile, senior military commanders in the gulf region have been holding urgent meetings in saudi arabia. members of the kingdom's royal family gathered with other g.c.c. leaders to voice support for abd-rabbu mansour hadi as the legitimate leader of yemen. they warned of conflicts for regional and global security and stability. >> let's talk to a political analyst and also the editor-in-chief of the yemen post. he joins us from the capital sanaa. what exactly do you think is a houthi strategy now. we know that they are moving south, they have taken tiaz the third largest city. are they heading towards aden. >> that's the reason they entered tiaz in the first place. it is strategic. number one. instead of the houthis attacking

through the air from sanaa to aden, they can attack aiden through tees which is minutes away. it's very strat edge ike. before the air strikes take 30-40 minutes to reach aden. this is the houthis, and a quicker reaction when it wants to attack in a specific location in aden. so the escalation by the houthis is dramatic and shows they are serious and i expect the air strikes to continue over the next couple of days after the houthis have control of the airport as well as the intelligence headquarters in tiaz. >> so what - how are you describing - in yemen - what the houthis are currently involved in. are you describing this has a power grab or is it a coup in the making. >> this is both. a power grab in the making and they are trying to ensure that

no one stands in the way. they know that saudi arabia - they only have iran. they are confident that the international airline will go in slow steps, which will allow them to control the area controlled now in a quick pace. like tiaz the houthis have been trying to enter for months now. they entered within hours because they know mr abd-rabbu mansour hadi cannot react quickly and send forces to tiaz to ensure they do not grab it. the houthis are reacting quickly and know that the u.n. security council will not react quickly and do not want more attacks against them to take place in sanaa. like what happened when 150 civilians were killed. they want to take the war, the clashes outside sanaa. >> sounds like a dangerous moment indeed. it's not been stable in yemen for months.

this sounds to be a particularly dangerous and tense moment. >> it is and we expect it to get more dangerous and intense, especially in areas where abd-rabbu mansour hadi was controlling the anti-muslim areas. siz saw tens of thousands. they do not care who is injured and who is killed. they want to ensure that they are in control of these provinces under abd-rabbu mansour hadi's control. they lost hundreds of fighters. they are continuing the march. they have tens of thousands of manpower on the ground. they do not count numbers when it comes to clashes, they come to clashes. >> thank you for bringing us up to date for worrying developments in yemen. >> now to libya, where hopes are

bringing down agreements are looking unlikely. peace talks are on the verge of collapse. on the ground there has been fierce fighting in and around tripoli. hashem ahelbarra reports from the moroccan capital. >> libya's rival factions are divided, unable to reach a compromises. as delegations try to stitch together the deal. fighting has been flaring up in libya. forces loyal to general khalifa haftar on the offensive to recapture the capital tripoli. the attack was propelled by forces loyal. one of the senior commanders were killed. the united nations envoy brokering the talk. it's a military operation.

precisely in a decisive moment of the talks, now a reaction as strong as it was in the past. this is not only military activity which is on the situation in libya, and preventing the unionists in libya. we condemn in the strongest terms the eyes of the representatives of the government fighting in the capital. >> the g.n.c. top military demander gave orders to defend the capital and it is safe. >> the dell face for the government in tobruk insists a deal is possible. our biggest concern is to stop violence and air strikes. there are those that want to undermine, it attempts to

disrupt and we hope to achieve. after talks and months of fighting libya is divided in the east. there is a government backed by national community. in the west a government reinstated by the supreme court. talks have been overshadowed by libya. undermining chances of a political pollution. that could lead to a full-blown civil war. >> the tunisian government released footage from the attack on wednesday. it chose the government entering the museum carrying out the assault. the tunisian official said they received weapons training at a camp controlled by i.s.i.l. prosecutors detained 20 people. two gen men were killed by security. the tunisian president said a

third attacker is on the run. meanwhile, a neighbour of one of the two gunmen identified as being involved had been speaking. she expressed her shock. >> translation: he wasn't poor. he was educated. how did extremists manage to reach educate people. before we were saying people that were hungry without work. he wasn't starving or with need. what pushed him to do that? >> a group calling itself the hacking division of i.s.i.l. posted names, addresses and photographs of run dreads of u.s. personal online. it received a call for fighters based in america. we have more from washington d.c. this is a group that is calling itself the islamic state hacking division. the group has not been verified we don't know where the source is. they have identified 100

military personnel, their names, in some cases their ranks and their addresses. they are doing it to encourage so-called lone-wolf sympathizers to kill these people - i'll read a quote "kill them in their own lands, stab them as they walk their own feet", it's concerning. islamic state hacking group said they hacked military sites to get the information. defense department believes much of that information, names and addresses, were available on social media. some of these people were in newspaper articles. incidentally, many of the 100 personnel are said to have been involved in air campaigns in iraq syria and yemen. this is something concerning officials. all the families involved have been contacted by the authorities and military personal in the u.s. minded to be careful of the footprint on

social media, making sure the buttons are connected. >> there's a lot more to come on the al jazeera newshour including find out why so many women die during pregnancy or child birth in lesotho and we report from france on the end result of what is called a cosmic coincidence. >> and in sport, find out in novak djokovic can stay on course to defend his title in indian wells. the afghan president ashraf ghani is on his way to the united states for his first visit since taking office. he is expected to discuss the pace of the u.s. troop withdrawals. while most foreign troops have already pulled out. the size of the afghanistan army is at its level for four years. we have this report from

jalalabad. >> reporter: soldiers are getting ready for a highway patrol. first up a lesson in using an american-made machine-gun. the men tell us they prefer russian weapons. this one they say, sometimes jams. >> over the last five years the number of troops at the base near jalalabad increased fourfold. and just as well. the taliban operates in many parts of eastern afghanistan's country side. still, the new base commander says the problems is not troops it's weapons. >> lack of air support, intelligence balloons and drones have affected the operations a lot of we should have an air force to destroy the enemy's bases. we are week in having long range weapons. these days the war has been modernized so we need modern weapons. >> even the food budget has been

cut. there was no meat for lunch. instead, rice, spinach. while most foreign troops pulled out, afghanistan's army is at its lowest level for four years. desertion, lack of recruitment and cat utilities are taking a -- casualties are taking a toll. last year numbers dropped to 8.5% to over 169,000. >> the latest found that u.s. military leaders overstatement the strength of afghan security forces thinking there were more police and troops than there are. that makes it difficult to judge the african government's ability to service the country. 13,000 were killed last year. for poor afghans, it's the only job they can find.

mohammed has to support 13 children. he gets home saying it's just as well he's single. >> their provinces were left for a long tomb. they get bored for nine or 10 months, or a year. when they get a holiday, going back for the military wondering if they get a game. that's why they don't come back. every morning, soldiers sweep the stretch of road for improvised devices. saying if they had night vision goggles or jammers, they could do a better job protecting people. taliban fighters are a few kilometres away. the challenge is holding them back. it's one afghanistan is now facing on its own nigeria's presidential

election is less than a week away. security in the north-east dominated the campaign. there's still many other issues that nim earians want addressed. including chronic shortages. we have this report from the biggest city lagos. >> the water vendors, the men that formed the backbone of the cities and formal water supply. >> on a good day the water company supplies 945 million litres of water. and that is where the water vendors come in. to fill a void and supply the rest of the population. >> it's a hectic job and a demand for water. it pays well. >> the estimates are far from happy. the housewife.

she said it cut wart on the vendors. >> i feel bad. i feel very very bad. it will work up for us. it's easy for us. >> reporter: another group cashing in on the water is the number of water treatment and bottling plants. these factories produce 1.5 million of water. there's not a fight. with at least 1,500 people moving from other parts of the country. it's expected to hit 10 million in five years. the demand for water by 2020 is expected to rise by a billion litres a day. it can't afford the cost of

improving and expanding the demands. >> we put in place a master plan to develop a large water scheme to support a water city. to execute a master plan we are investing a water plan of $3.5 billion. that's an investment that the state government cannot fund. the legos people are looking for private investors, without them they'll struggle for good safe drinking water all right. live now to our correspondent in the nigerian capital. we have less than a week to go until the actual election. tell us more about the campaigns of each of the major parties.

>> on 14 january all 14 presidential candidates signed a peace accord in the capital abuja promising to runs issues based campaigns, focussing on issues like how to tackle insecurity the unemployment crisis with electricity and promised to avoid stoking ethnic tribal and militia. the two candidates jonathan goodluck, the incumbent and the main opposition leader the general, stuck broadly to that. some supporters have been accused of inciting violence. 50 people have died. there is a feeling on the whole that the campaigns have gone okay and how far, many people feel that the candidates the

main candidates have not focused on issues on the issues i mentioned. the focus for both according to many people has been attacking the opposition. a lot has been said by the ruling party, the people's democratic party. how he - he is accused of participating in extrajudicial killings. on the opposite side the they accused jonathan goodluck of monumental disruption leaving the county in a parlous economic state. little detail on how both the can't dates who win -- candidates who win, why. >> negative campaigning seems to be the order of the day, doesn't

it yooefon. the tide seems to be turning in favour of the ruling party. of course, jonathan goodluck the president. how far is he likely to benefit from an improved landscape when people go to the polls next saturday. >> the information we are getting from military sources, if it's correct, there has been a massive turn around. the recapture of towns under boko haram. >> it has to be said. this does look good for president jonathan goodluck. we might have called that it took place. the military said he's the commander in chief. they tried to quell the crisis. now the precedent speak to him. talking about taking four weeks.

he gave another interview to a broad caster. within two weeks the crisis - they would pretty much be sold. >> it looks good for him. the opposition says it's politically motivated. the reasons it's been a step up is because the president has been worried about losing the election. it's too little too late. more than a million has been displaced. 13,000 killed. and boko haram has been executing the campaign of terror in the north-east. >> thank you for now yvonne ndege. she will be leading the coverage of the elections in nigeria next week now, from one of africa's biggest countries to one of the smallest. it has one of the highest rates of maternal mortality. the number of women dying has increased over the past decade.

as erica wood reports, a new clinic is trying to change that. >> three-quarters live in rural mountainous regions like this. for most people here there's no electricity, and running on the roads where they exist are bad. some have horses to get around. at nine months pregnant. they had to walk to get to the center. >> it takes a long time. it took me three hours to walk here. >> she's arrived at the clinic early. so she can give birth with medical care around her. it's a facility covered. >> translation: for the delivery of my two other babies they were at home. i had my contractions. >> reporter: the option of

staying at a clinic before childbirth is not available knerp. 40% of the women gives birth at home. >> translation: times women need to have a caesarian, but if she's unable to come to the health center. she would die. >> reporter: wep in every two women in lesotho die from childbirth, and one in every five do not make it to their fifth birthday. one contributing fact is aides in adult, and the other is lack of access to health care. africa's mountain kingdom with good reason. it's one thing for a heavily pregnant woman. come winter time is thick with snow. women have been educated. so many of the deaths are preventible. >> during the term when we

examine the ladies here when they come we can identify the problems in time. and then refer them to the hospital if they have to go to the hospital. >> this woman is excited to be having her third child and feels more relaxed. she doesn't represent the majority and lesotho is one of the most dangerous places in the world to be a pregnant mother time for the weather and it's been raining cats and dogs in doha hasn't it? >> we've had a thunder storm. they are all getting excited. you'll have to excuse us. this is an arid desert subtropical desert. we don't get rain very often. we had a wet day in december back in december and in january. but that's been about it. here we are looking at a decent

amount of rain coming down. earlier on yesterday the clouds are building up. if you look at the satellite, there's more coming across the central part of saudi arabia. through to qatar and driving in this morning to take pictures of a puddle. it's a bit like the u.k. where you don't get snow. when it occurs it causes problems. the same thing applies. there's not the drainage to cope with the heavy rainfall. there's a risk of flash flooding. there's the line of rain which is going to develop as we move through during monday across the mountains of saudi arabia. and heavy showers pushing in towards yemen. here in qatar. yes, there's a rask around. brisk around. monday and tuesday strong winds. in the following couple of days there might be dust. across the region changing

weather taking place at the moment. >> thank you. let's continue with the theme of national phenomena. thousands gathered along the coastline to witness the tide a culmination of factors that could be a once in a lift effect. kim vinnell explains. >> bewitching by night. a magical silhouette cut. the waters surrounding this monastery is joining the crowds. as the sun rose higher, so too, did the sea. braced against the cold thousands watched as the rocky i let was cut off. >> we saw the land not more than 20 minutes ago. everything is covered. it's rising quickly. >> those that came early enough witnessed a surge from above. those who missed the cut off had to wrestle to take in the 10th

century abby. it's a cosmic coincidence of sorts. thanks to the eclipse on friday and the super moon which is when the moon comes closer to earth than normal. together they pulled the ocean some 14 meters in and up. in a tidal surge that will not be seen again for another 18 years. just as impressive was the unusually low tide. the receding waters revealing vast sand backs and a truly emissive experience. it's quite a site. a bit tough for the feet. >> while the giant tide met expectations for many scientists say it didn't meet the peak they hoped. pictures will have to suffer ice as the next peak tide is not due until 2033. >> still to come on the programme - we tell you about a

miracle road in south korea, attracting thousands of visitors. plus... >> i'm simon mcgregor-wood, i'm inside a pigeon building center where some birth have been bought by chinese pigeon fanciers. >> india's sport - they can tighten their grip on a title with a win against their biggest rivals. andy with the details in a short while.

hello again. i'm martine dennis. these are the top stories. shi'a houthi rebels have taken over the airports in tiaz and other parts of the city. the fighters are pushing southwards in the direction of aden, where president abd-rabbu mansour hadi is trying to hold on to power. libyan peace talks held in morocco appear to be on the verge of collapse. fierce fighting rages between militias vying for control. a top military commander loyal to the government is among the dead. now more on our top story, that of the situation in yemen. the u.n. security council is due to meet in urgent session later on sunday. al jazeera managed to get hold of a draft of the statement expected to be considered by the security council and it assess the u.n. security council

condemns the deadly houthi attacks, and adds the houthis are undermining the political transition in yemen and threatens its security and denounces a refusal to withdraw from government areas. robert mcfadden described what the u.n. security council could do to prevent yemen's dissent. >> god bless the u.n. security council and the good people of yemen. many years i spend. it tears my heart out. with the event of yesterday, that headlines a horrible ingredient into a situation that's been terrible up to this point. the debt is purely purely to stir the sectarian nature of what is going on right now.

where you have innocent people in a mosque associated with a sect. still, this is something where yemen has been dissolving from where things were not sectarian. it's more powerful. going head long into a sectarian nature of the fight. what the security council can do to do all it can to support and influence some form of cessation of the hostilities by the main actors being the houthi. and the sect. and finding some form of where ali and those loyal to him fit in, as well as the fourth rail here. the southern movement. and part of who might negotiate the actor.

the u.s. secretary of state has been playing down reports of divisions between the united states and france. john kerry met his european counter-parts as he was on his way --. here is the diplomatic editor. >> with a framework deal with iran. u.s. secretary of state john kerry meeting his counterports. there has been reports that the french foreign minister wants to take a harsher line and it's been reported that at one point he called the team urging them not to allow recessions. before he reached switzerland, there was no division.

>> this is and remains a p5+1 negotiation. with iran. i emphasise we are united in our goal our approach our resolve and our determination to ensure that iran's programme is entirely peaceful. the european union continues to play a role in facilitating the talks. >> in iran it's the biggest holiday of the year. on national television the president said a deal was within reach. >> god willing at the end of negotiations we'll reach a deal and understanding benefitting all nations - iran the region and the world. >> in the city the supreme leader spoke to a large crowd raising a sticking point. >> negotiations with the u.s.

around the nuclear issue. everyone should be aware of this. we do not negotiate with the united states on regional issues. they are the opposite of iranian objectives. >> john kerrry is expected and the clock is ticking. that deadline is counter productive and added that a deal had to have concrete guarantees. >> president obama said it would be hard to find a path towards peace. the words coming after binyamin netanyahu said a two state solution wouldn't happen while in office. >> we believe a two-state

solution was the only way for long-term security. and i indicated to him that given the statement prior to the elections, it will be hard to find a path where people are seriously believing the negotiations are possible let's go live to my correspondent imtiaz tyab in west jerusalem. has the process begun in tiaz. >> well they are a few hours away from the meeting. they won the most seats in the march 17th protections. they'll meet with the president, ruben. after the meetings he will invite one of them to begin a

fairly lengthy process in building a coalition government. none of the leaders, including prime minister binyamin netanyahu secured an outright majority of 61 seats. binyamin netanyahu - a coalition will need to be built. he'll be looking to the far right. if the last election is any indication of how long this might take. it was a few days days before the six weeks, that binyamin netanyahu was able to perform a government. they are quite a distance away before seeing the 34th government. saying that it's not insignificant. isaac herzog will meet with the president and the leader of the joint lists, odey. he and the joint lists is a

party or grouping of the israeli palestinian parties who join forces for the first time. they managed to secure a healthy number of seats. they say that they will deal with the opposition. >> imtiaz tyab will keep us up to date with the developments coming out of the israel as they start the process of building new government. an independent inquiry said guards may have traded drugs for sex. the facility of nir u is where refugees are sent for processing. they are criticized for years for poor conditions. the australian government ordered an inquiry after allegations of sexual and physical assaults occurred. the report says it was aware of

three allegations of rape including one against a minor. and looked at claims that staff members of save the children encouraged refugees to self harm or exaggerate abuse allegations. the report found no support for those claims. >> matt tinklier is director of public affairs for save the children and he said the report vindicates save the children. >> what happened is they allege that the claims of self harm and abuse may have been fabricated by the staff as a means of furthering an agenda. reports found that that was not the case. there was a litany of evidence. allegations of rape occurring in nauru. the staff don't need to make up those things. pleasingly for us it vindicated our position and the actions of our staff.

that they are there to help asylum seekers. ultimately the only true safeguard to prevent the incident is to end the prolonged detention. this is an environment occurring long-term harm. failing that there needs to be greater transparency in the government operations in nauru. there's a secrecy that pervades the operations at nauru, and that, in our view is at the heart of those problems. there needs to be independent oversight and the government needs to move away from that process that is causing significant harm to people to indonesia which is facing a serious population crisis. demographic experts say parts of the country are overpopulated and the government wars that living conditions will deteriorate if a number of people continues to grow. this report from jakarta.

>> reporter: population experts call it a crisis. too many people living on too little land with too little resources. many are added to the world population. indonesia has around 250 million. in 2050 it has around 400 million, and could have the third largest population in china and india. >> we can't back off. this is not only a threat to our country or our people but to all of us including the country surrounding us. if our population grows so fast. there's a moment where living conditions are under threat. they face shortages. what will people eat. >> in an effort to stop the boom the government reintroduced the family planning programme that was successful 30 years ago at

encouraging families not to have more than six children. that is the average per family. many have more. doctors working for the family planning board fail to use birth control. >> i don't want to use birth control because i'm against it. i believe it's up to god to decide health children to have. despite offering free birth control and regular visits of mobile clinics, the family planning board is fighting an upheel battle especially when it comes to religion. >> the men are worried about vasectomies. we'll use religion to convince them. if we can't persuade them we'll come back and bring a religious teacher who explains that religion is not against it. >> not many are aware of looming danger. a population of explosion

hampering quality of life. experts warn if nothing is done quickly to reduce population basic needs will be at risk. >> family planning workers are trying their best to explain the urgency of birth control. they don't have many staff or budgets. many do not know the program economists. >> we see the government is not focused on controlling government growth. we had a minister for population and family planning. now, it's up to the people to determine how many children they have. the government hardly interferes. >> demographic experts urge the government to tackle the crisis and assign more money and man power. 30 years ago indonesia was recognised as having one of the

best family planning programs. many say there needs to be improvements, and fast now, on the island of jindo in south korea a festival celebrating a natural phenomenon is under way. low tides this time of years causes a strip of land to emerge creating a temporary pathway to a neighbouring island. the event attracts thousands. rob mcbride was among them. >> as the sea recedes people start to move forward from the shore line. cautiously at first, and then finding themselves on a strip of land stretching from the main jindo island to the smaller modo 3km away. and then the fun starts. collecting whatever unlucky creatures were left stranded by the departing tide.

>> i just found it now. it's an octopus. >> the story goes that a family left behind their grandmother when chased by the island by tigers. the grandmother prayed to be reunited and the seas parted creating a path across the seabed that the family used to come back for her. the legend was born. playing on both the natural phenomenon and local folklore the community created a festival around the event that grows in popularity. >> we are getting more and more international tourists and hope one day it will be a major event representing the whole of korea. >> it translates from the korean as a miracle. half an hour ago the stretch of see bed was below the water. half an hour from now it will be

submerged once more. all the more reason to enjoy it while it lasts. >> for the son and children - this is the first time they have come. >> it's amazing. showing it to the children is good for them. >> as quickly as they departed the waters returned. this time the people receding. back to dry land until the next time. andy will be here in a little while. he'll tell you why it's been a rough day for world number one in florida.

now, pigeon racing is becoming popular, and the rich in china are becoming fans spending a lot of money on the new hobby. simon mcgregor-wood reports from belgium, where there are some of

the best racing pigeons. >> reporter: in this box is nick larks a long-distance star. a pigeon national champion sold to a chinese billionaire. >> this was the most expensive pigeon in the whole season. it's the most expensive season sold since may 2013. he was sold for $244,000 euro. niklas and hundreds lived here at pigeon paradise. an exclusive breeding center. 23 million worth of racing pigeons were sold from here mostly to china. this is where the champions breed. the chinese fans - that means they are buying the best. courtesy of competeition. >> it's snobbery. they have good quality pigeons

in china but do not trust chinese, they prefer to buy from belgium. >> reporter: 420 birds are on the way from china, value 911,000. it's a long way from when pigeon racing was a hobby, using the homing instincts. racing started. pigeons released hundreds of kilometres from home. owners waiting for them to come back all for a few hundred dollars. >> what transformed a cottage industry is a huge popularity of pigeon racing in china. millions changing hands in racing and gambling. according to some with the money has come treatment and cruelty. thousands died. elsewhere there's doping

extortion and bird death. >> the whole principle of pigeon racing is to send birds hundred of miles from their homes, mates, babies and whether they'll make it back alive. birds are well treated. as you see they spread their wings. it's hard not to be taken in. the connection between humans and birds trying to come home. the question really is is it a sport. probably. >> is it. >> i don't know. >> icon aside. >> world number one novak djokovic plays roger federer. novak djokovic beating andy murray for a sixth straight time. the champion requiring 88 minutes. novak djokovic on course to win one of the biggest titles outside of the grand slams for a

fourth time. roger federer beat canada's milos raonic to set up the final. it will be the 38th career meeting between novak djokovic and roger federer, and a repeat of last year's final. for a fifth title at indian wells. it's been 229 elclassico meeting. later comes another one. >> barcelona hosting real madrid and barcelona with the favourites. 17 wins in the last 18 games. four points clear of "real money". they'll arrive better rested. they have not played since last sunday. >> there'll be 10 games to go before the end of the season. many of them complicated. both for us and the rest of the feels in the competition. i think it's important but not a

decisive game. in the indian champion's league a win for hull puts them ahead. one of four teams ahead of relegation. they have been held to a draw in four of the last six games. >> we are there, strong confident. and we believe in our capacity to stay there until the last match. >> it's not just the game that affects the top and bottom. all three. everton travel to q p.r. heading for relegation. both aiming for a stop finish. and champion's league qualification. liverpool the only team beaten. >> we arrive to the game. manchester united coming off the

back of a good performance. we are very confident and look to take the confidence that we've shown into this game, and hopefully continue with that momentum. >> defending m.l.s. champions, galaxy led to a 1-0 draw. a great goal from benigno aquino. aquino. -- robbie keane giving them the lead. houston are a point behind in fourth the northern hemisphere's biggest international rugby tournament could hardly have a closer finish. ireland's 40-10 win over scotland. back to back titles for the first time since 1949. glnd win. england - the winners falling
