win, but needs 76% of seats to take control of the parliament, a role that aung san suu kyi is not allowed to hold. the army domestic hates politics. the military backed union needs 35% to form a majority. that's because 2a 5% of the seats are actually reserved for the military. also activityists say up to 400 people may have brenn unable to vote. a day at the polling station in yangon. >> reporter: the end of historic day here. the end of polling for this general election. it seems to have gone very smoothly. there have been no reports of any kind of violence, no reports today on polling day or accusati accusations of inconsistencies from both local and international organisations had

fanned out across the country. so far there have been no mention of any kind of wrongdoing or any suspicious activities at these 40,000 polling centres across the country. the nld, the opposition party, headquarters here, people started to gather after the sun set a couple of hours after polling closed to show their support for aung san suu kyi. they gathered and were told to go home and wait for the results. looking at the day unfolded. >> reporter: before day break and before polling stations are opened, voters were patiently waiting their turn to vote for government they want. >> it is for the next generation, time for a real change. that's what we're hoping for. hopefully that will bring good changes. >> this day, we can make a change for the future, for the brighter future for our country. >> reporter: for nearly 50 years a military government rules this

country until handing over power four years ago. since then the union solidarity and development matter consisting of former military officers has been in charge. the woman seen by many as most able to bring shake to myanmar is opposition leader aung san suu kyi. she was still under house arrest at the last general election. the process considered fraudulent by the international community. this election is different. the main opposition party, the national league for democracy is taking part. international observers have been allowed into the country >> it is a first for myanmar to invite international observation. we think this is very positive because it increases the transparency of the process and other observers are doing the work and we hope that this transparency will be displaced throughout the counting process, throughout the announcement of the results. >> reporter: there are allegations of error in the voter list and irregularities in advance voting. there was no poleing in several

townships and hundreds of villages because of the security concerned following fighting between ethnic armies and government soldiers. identity card holders were voted in the last election aren't allowed to this time. the move affects more than april hill i don't know rohinga. whatever the outcome of sunday's vote, the military will still play a part in government because the constitution guarantees a quarter seats if parliament, but that didn't seem to matter. at least not on this day and not to those who voted. polling has closed after an anticipated election. the first held by a civil gefilte. despite the flaws, this is seen as a step forward for the democracy as we've been hearing, many of the human rights issues in myanmar relate to minorities and

some have not been able to vote. at a camp for displaced people. >> reporter: there is no celebration in myanmar's developing democracy here. in these camps there are around 100,000 people, most of them are rohinga muslims who are mostly viewed as illegal immigrants despite the fact that most of them have been here for generations. their rights have been stripped away. they used to be able to vote in elections. not this time. that right has also been taken away by the government. >> translation: i was hoping to be able to vote, but now i can't. our lives are so difficult right now. >> translation: i'm very sad that i can't vote, but i hope that after the election the rohinga people will be recognised. that's my one wish >> reporter: just a few kilometres away outside these camps people have been able to vote as normal. one of the leading candidates for the main buddhist party in

the state isn't offering much hope for the people here. >> translation: we have a citizenship law and we can live with those, but we can't live were new comers. >> reporter: the people here say they have some hope in the normal of aung san suu kyi, but so far she has refused to speak out in support of them more on this, to new york, a south-east asia political risk analyst. thank you for joining us. first of all, from what you've seen and heard, what do you make of theys elections and are you worried about - these elections, do you have any concerns about the impending result and do you describe it will be respected. >> -- do you think it will be respected. >> sure. i think that the signals thus far suggest that the election was broadly conducted in a free and fair manner. there are, of course, a great number of irregularities across the country. many of these are related to the logistical challenge of bringing

35 million people to vote for the first time in some number of years. so i think that while there are challenges that took place, the important thing is that there wasn't coordinated malfeasance or an effort to tip the scales in favor of one party depends the other. we're likely to see the results accepted both inside the country obviously, there are dozens of parties up for the election, but this very much been seen as rival between the two parties. many members of just the rohinga but other minorities have not been represented. how do you think any future government deal with that? how could any be representative for myanmar if they want to be? >> i think that it's important to remember that many of the parties that participated in this election were, in fact, ethnic nationalitys, political parties. there is some degree of

representation. it isn't holistic by any means and there are challenges with parties being disenfranchised in this vote. i said the key focus moving forward is probably going to be on the nld and the u.s. dp because they're likely to convene the largest colonel ignoress in the-- coalitions in the parliament ahead of choosing the president. on the nld's side, depending on what sort of numbers they have in their favor, which could be between 35 to 45%, the u.s. dp is going to have a smaller proportion, but they may caucas effectively with the military black of 2 ah% of seats which would put in them in relatively running neck and neck. then it will become a question of how they can recruit or bring ethnic parties into their coalition when choosing a president and that is going to give ethnic nationalitys voices

in the key making process that happens next by 1530 we should start getting some idea on monday what the results will be. assuming that the nld as well as people presume, what do you make of aung san suu kyi's future role. she can't be president because she has two children that are half british, so even if the nld does win, there will be another president, but how key do you think her future role will be within the new government? >> i think in terms of her role directly in government, of course, that's going to depend on whether she is able to stand for position like the speaker of parliament, and whenever she has a formal role in that sense, but certainly i think there's no question that she is going to remain an absolutely integral, the cornerstone of the national league for democracy. in addition to, obviously, her institutional power as the

chairperson of the party, she is also an enormously influential individual and people, i think, defer to her and look to her for policy direction. moving forward, at this stage we haven't seen a great deal of policies specifics articulated really on either side. this was a campaign that was won based on large part on the personal characteristics of the people competing in these. she will have a big role to play in terms of shaping policies in parliament very interesting to see what the future results will be. thank you for that. still to come including civilians are confirmed dead in yemen in the latest attack. was the metrojet crash in sinai

means for the tourist's ailing economy. the final with novak djokovic. there have been three separate attacks in the occupied west bank. at least one person is dead. a palestinian shot by israeli police after driving into a froup of people. a palestinian woman was shot and wounded by a security guard after she tried to stab him. shia was seen pulling a knife from her handbag and lunging at the guard. this is the latest incident in a wave have van't attack in september. israeli soldier who was critically injured on wednesday has died. it brings the death toll from the recent violence to 77

palestinians and 10 israelis killed. >> reporter: two of the incidents took place around the northern city in the occupied west bank. one of them that was caught on camera, the woman that tried to stab an israeli security officer, that was a change to a pattern that was seen here over the last few weeks that most of the incidents, some of them disputed, of course, palestinian witne witnesses, some people say it's not as israeli narrative goes, but they have haven't taken place around hebron. it shows how unpredictable these attacks are. the president is on his way to meet with barack obama. we know that the israeli prime minister has a plan to try and

ease tensions in the west bank and in gaza, lifting check points, perhaps easing the restrictions on movement, but i think very difficult to see how that's going to translate to the tensions on the ground that remain very real. many people will tell you palestinians, it stems from many factors, also a complete hopelessness in a scene at the end of this occupation and certainly we have heard from the white house in the last few days that a two state solution, that a solution to the tensions, to the long ongoing crisis here, the occupation, will not happen under the president see of obama the president is on the way to the united stakes to have a chat with president obama. he hopes to make process in securing a new military aid package for his country.

>> translation: the conversation with the president will centre on recent events in the middle east, including in syria. possible progress with the palestinians are at least stablising the weighs with them and, of course, strengsdzenning security of the state of israel, something the united states is always committed to with the state of israel being preserved in the face of a changing middle east and forces straight to washington. relations between these people have been soured since he opened an open deal in congress. they were pretty diesy before as well. what kind of atmosphere is there going to be there for thea rival of the israeli p.m.? >> reporter: well, you notice that in that statement by p.m. natanhau there is no issue with the deal with eye rehabilitation. the source of the lingering bad blood between the white house

and him is that deal and, in particular, things such as the appointment just last week by netannahu by an adviser referred to anti sematism in the motive of the president. that joined rejoinder yesterday from advice president joe bydon. he told a jewish audience here in florida that that kind of talk could not be tolerated. so you can see that there is still a lot of - an atmosphere here of uneasiness despite the fact that the business at hand really is the first negotiations over the pending deal to increase military aid to israel. the israelis are asking for three pillion a year right now to a commitment of as much as

five billion over the next 10 years. that will be the focus of the conversation at the white house except then, of course, the media is democrat natured by the violence that we have seen unfold, more than usual in the west bank and jerusalem over the past five or six weeks. the u.s. hasn't really made any headway with the israelis when it becomes to securing a two state solution, getting them to stop settlement expansion. considering this is obama's last year in office, does anyone hold any expectation that there could be anything done at all regarding the two state solution or settlement expansion? >> just today the israeli - rather, the u.s. am was on door to israel-- ambassador says there's no kind of peace deal, as you put it, over any kind of comprehensive deal in the remainder of the obama tenure, but the question here is whether they can actually offset or prevent the further

deterioration of the situation, not only on the ground in terms of the violence day-to-day, but also the increasing desperation of the palestinian authority making increased more threats that they will abandon the palestinian authority altogether, throw away the oslo accords and leave it to the israeli for occupation, which they don't want to see because that will only exacerbate their isolation in the world, on the world stage with the latest from washington dc. thank you. nine people have been killed in bujumbura. seven bodies were found lying on the floor. two others who managed escape died later in hospital. vines has escalated in recent months after a contested election which has caused many to three. searches have been carried out after a presidential deadline to

hand in illegal weapons ran out. at least 200 people have been killed in the recent unrest in burundi and tens of thousands have left of the country. the violence began in april with widespread protests after the president said that he would seek third term in office. he went on to win elections in july, but the result was contested by opposition groups. he set a deadline of midnight saturday for people to hand in illegal firearms or be considered enemys of the nation as a part of a plan to disarm the population. opposition leaders say that this could be used as an excuse to kill his opponents. burundi security minister says in spite of the new measures on weapons, normal life in the country can go on. >> translation: there's a new technique that will support the process of forced disarmament of civilians. the new technique enables us to get the weapons held illegal,

whether they're being carried or hidden somewhere. this operation will take as long as it takes, but the only thing is that there were rumors that made civilians flee going to yemen where more than 50 people have been killed in the past two days as fighting flared up in many areas. rebels have launched the major offensive in the south recapturing several vimages. without immediate sought from the coalition, they may lose more ground. >> reporter: fighters hold ground in the southern city in the province. government troops have retreated. outgunned and outnumbered they are waiting for reinforcements. >> translation: they are still capable of sending fighters and ammunition to the front line. >> reporter: seven months after the start of the air strikes,

fighters are far from defeated. they've attacked an saudi military post in a bordertown. they're fighting to control the military. as the fighting continues across yemen, more civilians are continuing to die, including family members when their car was attacked on a busy road. >> translation: a few rockets fell on the city. a boy and a dpirl and their father were killed. the mother survived, but she is in serious condition. >> reporter: local activists blame the forces loyal to former president. the continuing fighting threat ens to june mine efforts to get yemen's warring factions to agree on a cease fire and have

talks a leading figure in the yemen general congress has died. he was considered one of the country's most experienced politicians. he served as p.m. first in the yemen arab republic during the 80s and later in the unified state from 1998 to 2001. the 81 year old was flown to germany from vashe to continue with his treatment but died in hospital. a member of the team investigating the metrojet scratch has advised that they're certain that the noise heard in the last second was an explosion from a bomb. the plop came down in the sinai last weekend. a group affiliated with i.s.i.l. said it caused the crash. thiefs of russian tourists are being eau evacuated from sharm

el-sheikh. a memorial service has been held in st petersburg where most of the victims came from. >> reporter: 224 chimes for 224 lives ended suddenly and violently. the somber sound of the bell was held here. according to russian orthodox tradition, a memorial to the dead is held on the ninth day. that means it's more than a week since the plane was dedestroyed over sinai and we're still waiting for a conclusive explanation of how and why. western governments think it was probably a bomb. i.s.i.l. says it destroyed the plane as a revenge for russia's air campaign in syria. russians have a variety of views. >> translation: we can only judge by what we're being told.

if you want to know what i think, if it was i.s.i.l., i think that theory has a right to exist. >> translation: i think it is the plane that is to playbill. it's a technical error. >> translation: there have been many versions. from what we were officially told, i'm inclined to think it was an explosive on board. >> reporter: the kremlin says eau shouldn't jump to conclusions but its decision making tells a different story. all flights to egypt were suspended on friday and eau evacuated tourists started arriving back in their home country this weekend. even if an i.s.i.l. bomb is proven to be what destroyed the jet, don't expect a domestic back lash against russia's current foreign policy. putin's time in power has been marked by several deadly attacks an tragedies. general response is to grieve and then move on. if anything, look for a hardening of attitudes, more support for russia's bombing in

syria. >> reporter: sorrow is often followed by anger, but modern governments can be good at shaping public opinion for their own uses and the kremlin is better than most the metrojet crash a week ago is going to deal yet another severe blow to egypt's tourism sfri, an industry which contributes significant revenue to the country. paul brennan has more. >> reporter: this month should have been the start of egypt's peak tourism season. instead, the loss of more than 220 lives in an expected airline bombing is shaping up to a financial disaster as we as a human tragedy. russian and british tourists are the backbone of the egyptian market, but both countries have imposed travel bans and several other countries have followed suit. >> immediately the russian market which is about three million people a year, i think, will be very, very hard hit, and, of course, an awful lot of

holiday makers from bit an, germany andity lee are going to be worried about the message. >> reporter: tourism makes up nearly 15% of egypt's economy. around 12% of egyptians work in the tourism sector. recent years have been tough. in 2010 egypt saw 14.7 million tourists, but in 2014 that had fallen to 9.the million. tourism revenue peaked at 12.8 billion dollars in 2008. 2015 is unlikely to exceed $7 billion. russian tourists who booked for egypt are being offered alternative holidays in turkish resorts. >> translation: tourist agencies will, of course, suffer big losses because they can't sell egypt any more and they will have to invest in the alternative. egypt is losing business. the situation is very difficult.

>> reporter: 2015 was supposed to be a turning point for the egyptian tourism industry. this past week should have seen the launch of a $68 million global pr campaign, a three year deal to promote egypt in 27 global markets. instead the campaign has opinion shelved. the launch events cancelled. >> in these cases, the situation 99% of the time is very safe and very enjoyable and there's no sense of any security issue, but people's perceptions change and for a tour operator who prints a brochure and is on line, they say it's not worth it. >> reporter: egyptian tourism has faced big setbacks in the last few months. visitor numbers fell 60%. last year a bomb on a bus killed

two south koreans an an egyptian. earlier this year the air force bombed a place of tourists. jets into sharm el-sheikh could resume as early as friday. the cancellations an lost revenue will impact for months. recovering from the reputational damage on egypt will take longer. these tourists may never return much more to come on the news hour including a hero's home coming, but the battle is far from over. from the economy to the refugee crisis voters in croatia has their say on how the country has fared since joining the e.u. nearly 40,000 people take part in activities. more in sport.

>> tough that the country gave up on me. >> look at the trauma... every day is torture. >> this is our home. >> nobody should have to live like this. >> we made a promise to these heroes... this is one promise americans need to keep. reminder now of the top stories on al jazeera.

voting has passed smoothly in what has been billed as myanmar's freest election ever. aung san suu kyi is expected to win most of the votes. a palestinian woman has been shot and wounded by a security guard in the latest wave of violent attacks in the west bank. in burundi people have been killed in the capital bujumbura. greek fishermen have helped rescue stranded refugees on the island of lesbos. the greek coast guarda appealed to the fishermen to rescue people who were stranded after their boat engine failed. volunteers helped them and gave them emergency blankets. volunteers have been joining greek authorities to help with the influx of refugees and the rescue effort. the hundreds of thousands of refugees who have arrived on the greek islands so far this year

have change how the islands look and do business. new shops and restaurants are popping up to cater for the refugees' needs. not everyone on the island is happy with the changes. >> reporter: a scene full of contradictions, juxtaposing money against misery. >> many businesses that were about to close down are now being kepta live. >> reporter: refugees line-up to pay what little money they have to local businessmen and women who have learned to afflimate. the sandwiches may be simple, but menus can now be found in many languages. catering to crisis has left a bad taste in the mouth says of even some of those benefit fisting from it. like maria, while happy to be

making some extra cash from selling cards, she also feels conflicted. >> translation: everybody takes advantage of them, the poor people. i don't think there is one single business that doesn't benefit. in the past there was nothing here. it was just an empty street. that sums it up. now it is like a street party. >> reporter: in the capital, one new restaurant isn't just offering up menus in arabic, it's serving up middle eastern cuisine too. it promises a taste of the homeland they fled. owner insists his endeavour is good for both residents and refugees. >> translation: we should adopt and accept these people and support them in any possible way. there is a difference between profiting from doing honest and hard work and exploitation. a have >> reporter: a short walk down

the street, comfort is in short supply as nourishment. >> the prices of the shops are very high, yes. when you go to the shops, you will find it is very crowded. >> reporter: this man tells me he feels as though some local businesses are trading off their suffering. most of the refugees we poke with now sleeping here in this parking lot told us that for them prices aren't an issue. they don't have enough money to go buy food at a grocery store or eat at a restaurant. many say the money they brought with them is now close to running out. still, even at this hour, surely one of their darkest, they choose to see some light. >> we have difficulties on the island, but we find kindness in the people. that's what makes us feel happier because we cannot find this kindness in our countries.

i don't know what to say. i don't know. >> reporter: as the economy on lesbos changes, people change with it. this may look like simple supply and demand, but for now the only thing you can see clearly is a surplus of despair > many of the immigrants who land in greece then go through europe and try to make their way to northern europe. they pass through countries such as croatia. in croatia parliamentary elections were held there. both the rule party and opposition appear be neck and neck. it's the first election since joining in 2013. the president has been accused as being ineffectual on the refugee crisis. first of all, we are getting

some preliminary results. tell us what it is looking like. >> reporter: yes. up until now 14% of all the votes from all the polling stations have been counted by the electoral commission. we will continue on counting the votes. so far we have this incomplete preliminary results and they say that 63 seats go to centre right position of coalition, 52 seats go to centre left ruling coalition and the rest to this new political party called the bridge of independence list. the complete official count of this election results will be known sometime during tomorrow. the exit polls this evening shows this a neck and neck race between the two main coalitions in croatia and they will have to seek the ought support from this

third political strength, this new party, only three years old, for the formation of government obviously, the refugee crisis has been a huge issue during this election and how the country deals with it. how could the country deals with it change depending on who manages the former government? >> reporter: it's this coalition that is in government now stays for another four year mandate, then they will have this humane approach that they were trying to implement throughout these months. if the centre rights opposition coalition comes and wins this election, then they will enforce a stricter rules on the borders. they will not allow migrants and refugees to come through so-called green borders, but will allow entrance into croatia

only you through legal official crossing. this will be a huge question for whoever wins this election indeed. thank you. serbia says two staff have been kidnapped on an attack on the serbian's convoy. the hostages have been named, a communications officer and a driver. the prime minister says he hopes to achieve a positive outcome in the next 48 hours. donald trump has once again hit out at his fellow candidate ben carson. he was reacting to news that carson may have embellished parts of his life story as well as his theory that the egyptian pyramids were built to hold grain. >> he wrote it. i didn't. he is going to have to explain a lot of things away. the scholarship situation, the

dinner, the pyramids. pyramids are a solid structure, essentially, for an area for the pharoah. you don't put grain in a pyramid hay also made a different kind of media appearance this weekend. >> donald. oaf brought you the check yeah. he was the guest host of the saturday night live comedy program. it's the second time the businessman has hosted the show after his first appearance in 2004. not everyone liked the protestors marched on the n.b.c. studios in new york. he as angered mine ought groups from comments he made. more from a professor in washington. thank you for joining us here. let's start with ben carson

because we have seen him be attacked by guests in an indirect way by donald trump, but a lot of people will say he has caused some himself because there is question marks over his biography. how damaged do you think ben carson is right now? >> i think there is damage, but not especially to his own base of support. he has a base mostly among christians. a lot of them may agree with him on some of the things he said, but he is also using this as an opportunity to attack what he calls the secular progressive movement which the christians regard as their enemy and especially the media. he says the media are out to get him. this is an ancient theme in the united states. they often prosper by attacking the media donald trump, who is not the media, highlighted comments that ben carson made about pathological behaviour. so in this particular case, do you think trump is to blame, do

you think it was a step too far or do you think there are question marks now over ben carson? >> well, you're right. trump is not a media but he is a competitor and people recognise that. he goes around the country in the campaign talking about what i call not supposed tos. he said things you're not supposed to say. many times they're true and he is saying a lot of insulting things to his competitor, mr carson. trump gets away with it. trump is a celebrity. that's what his appearance on that television show was about. he has a following. the question is for both trump and carson, they have a base of support, but can they get any votes beyond that base. that's becoming very doubtful so finally, do you think that carson is, was, ever was a real threat to donald trump? >> well, they're both threats to each other because they both appear to appeal to a lot of angry republicans.

different kind of anger. trump appeals to immigrants and carson appeals to the religious. they're competing for the same votes. it's really a contest between them and also with the republican establishment which does not believe that either of these men is likely to be elected president it is a very interesting contest. thank you for that. much more to come after the break including barcellona. >> the world robot owe olympic here where more than 3000 of the world's smartest minds have come together to battle robot supremecy.

troops from chan have returned home to a hero's welcome after fighting. the battle against the armed group is far from over with aid agencies warning of people being forced out of their homes. >> reporter: government leaders in chard are calling it a great return. they're coming home after fighting. the mission conclude was historic. it not only stopped the advance of the enemy but it gave us an

opportunity to support the pt. >> reporter: supporters of the military have welcomed the government decision. >> translation: the military mission is almost gone. we feel happy and we came to port them and thanking for accomplishing the mission. government leaders say the mission is not over and they've handed control to the force. five thousand soldiers were sent to support the forces. they remain a threat. in june a five nation multi nation joint task force of nearly nine thousand troops was formed. troops from the countries are expected to be more effective. chad has also been killed and injured in the offences. thousands have been killed and tens of thousands forced from their homes.

the u.n. is warning about the displacement of more people. attacks have become less frequent but haven't stopped in neighbouring nigeria. >> translation: i was very afraid of the anybody who has seen horrible things must be afraid. ic no longer go hunting because i might get killed in the forest. we have to rely on farming and we only farm around the house so in case we see them coming, we can quickly defend ourselves or run to safety. >> reporter: fear remains in places where they have been pushed back. for now in the capital, that fear seems to have been replaced buy triumph the governor of a brazil an state where two dams have burst at a major mine it says it's unlikely that 28 missing people will be founda live.

a village was flooded killing two people. >> translation: we are resuming searches in all areas that are likely to have victims. in the worse hit town, we are stepping up searches for all those missing who were working at the mine of this tragic accident sir francis has confirmed a leak of documents. he was speaking after two people were arrested after sharing information with journalists. he said it would not get in the way of vatican reforms. for the sports. >> reporter: the motogp season has come to a dramatic conclusion. jorge lorenzo won to get the third world title. >> reporter: world champion marc marquez was about to officially relinquish his crown to someone else. while 26 riders, only two men in

the pack, really mattered. both of them racing for the same team, jorge lorenzo seven points behind valentino rossi and was forced to start this grand prix from the back of the grid. rossi needed at least a second place finish to get the title. the italian showed his determination from the start. at the end of the first lap he gained 11 places and was up to four not long after. lorenzo just a day earlier set a new lap record on the circuit dominated from start to finish to take the flag. his delight was a third motogp crown was on display for all the world to see. >> i tried to go as fast as possible. moving so much, the bike, i just keep my concentration and pray to finish the race. >> reporter: a season comes to an end, lorenzo celebrating a third title since 2010. >> reporter: too football now.

ma drinked has suffered under their new coach. a brilliant over head kick was given, that's why he was feeling his shoulder there. the match was turned around and a goal was pulled back. he ran out to three two winners. next up, barcelona. a three point advantage after a convincing win earlier. a couple of goalsed a pent giving them a three nil victory. the pair have scored a remarkable 16 goals between them in their last six games. other results, a two one victory to be eighth place. a third with a one nil sporting. man city have managed to hang on to their head.

aston villa, certainly an encouraging performance under their new boss. >> yes. i mean, i clinch it against such a good team and players. it means that we should be a little bit more confidence, confidence sorry, next time. that what we were looking for probably the player we're looking for that for a long time. it was a good occasion to do it. >> of course, i'm disappointed about the result, but i have nothing to complain about our team because we play very well in 90 minutes. it's not easy when you try and you have 60 metres, you are behind you free, but i think firstly they couldn't create a chance. we dominated the game and we are unwill being lucky with options that we had. >> reporter: arsenal are level

on points with city after drawing one one against tottenham. many fans leaving before the defeat. >> we are responsible. we are responsible that nobody can leave a stadium a minute before the last whistles because everything can happen. that's what we have to, but what we have to show and we didn't. things are like they are. >> reporter: the democratic republic of congo has been crowned the best football club in africa. they beat the team in the league final, four one. it's a fifth title, but it also means they qualify for the fifa club on 10 december. knead beat andy murray in the final. he served taking the opening set
