>> hello, i'm barbara serra. this is the news hour live from london. thank you for joining us. coming up in the next 60 minutes. political survival as brazil's biggest party leads the governing coalition. hostages escape on an egypt airplane that was hijacked in cypress. the hijacker gave himself up. we explore the deep divisions in the belgium capital.

and an israeli soldier shoots in an incident. we meet with the man who filmed the incident. >> details in sports coming up later in the program. >> brazilian president dilma rousseff has reportedly canceled the trip to a nuclear summit in washington. rousseff's government was dealt a major blow when the country's largest party quit. earlier her tourism minister resigned becoming the first prominent member of the

coalition party to step down. rousseff is embroiled in corruption allegations and accusations she manipulated economic information all of which she denied. for more i'm joined by gabriel elizondo in brasilia. dilma rousseff has been fighting against corruption allegations for a long time, but this is really a huge blow to the coalition and her political future. >> it really is. you can't overstate it enough. the party was one of rousseff's strongest allies unquestionably for many years, even dating back to her predecessor lula da silva. even a month ago or even weeks ago it would be unthinkable to consider they will breakaway from her government. things have gotten so bad now they have done just that. what this means is that her

choice choice--her chances of overcoming impeach is very slight. just in a week and a half-two weeks the vote will go to full congress to see if impeachment should proceed. even if the party pulled away from the government the vote was going to be very tight. they're literally counting votes. it was going to be a very narrow vote with this party pulling out of her coalition. a party with 69 lawmakers and congress, it's almost certain that she is going to have a very difficult time overcoming impeachment. it is a major blow to her and it shakes up the political landscape here in brazil and throws this country into deeper political crisis. and it was just 24 hours ago. >> they made it clear that she was going to fight the impeachment process to the end, whatever that may be.

so what reason does she and her supporters give for her not standing down in light of everything that is happening right now. >> well, barbara, dilma rousseff and her supporters rightly point out she hats not been convicted of any crime. even the accusations against letteher by brazil, they have more allegations pending against her. is she bravely points out she has not been convicted of any crime. number two, she points out she was elected president of the country just a year and a half ago by 51 million brazilians in free and fair elections. and the impeachment process is not even completed yet, so why should she resign.

those are the three key reasons they give and her supporters say this is a coup by the opposition. they say the opposition is pushing impeachment and then just trying to figure out what the reasons are later. the opposition clearly sees it differently. they say this is not a coup. they're going through all the proper legal and constitutional avenues. to pursue a legitimate impeachment against her president that is really facing a very, very difficult people you she's wildly unpopular here, and the economy is sinking by the day. so two very different views of where things stand in brazil right now. i can tell you that the bottom line is that dilma rousseff's chancing chances of staving off impeachment in congress just got a high hill to climb after this major party decided to break

from her. >> gabriel elizondo, thank you. authorities are poised to charge a man who hijacked a plane supposedly to deliver a letter to his ex-wife. it reported an international emergency and sentence stand off on the tarmac. >> passengers and crew headed to safety after hours of captivity. he's images were the first indication that this hostage crisis was reaching its end. then the man itself named a 59-year-old egyptian taken into custody around his stomach something white, possibly a suicide-bomb belt that authorities now say that was a

fake. >> no explosives were found. not on the suspect or anything else. >> the egyptian authorities released this authority to show the suspect going through security a at alexandria number he threatened a crew and demanded that the plane be diverted to cypress. for hours they negotiated with the hijacker and they focused on the personal rather than the political. this is being treated not as an act of terrorism but a criminal act and he'll be indicted on criminal charges. part of the investigation will focus on the contents of the letter that he threw from the

plane and was recovered from the tarmac of the airport. that letter was written to his wife. when he was asked if this was all over a woman. there is always a woman, he said. the hijacker asked for female prisoners to be released. >> at some point he demanded to meet with the e.u. representative and he demanded to depart from the airport and head to another destination. he raise nod specific demands. by mid afternoon the airport had been reopened and the egypt plane would take freed passengers to cairo. the ordeal over and everything well under way. the fake belt went undetected. the captain and crew had to assume that a real one got through. harry fawcett.

>> i felt that he would either bomb the plane, or he just demand that we land at sea. i had several scenarios on my mind trying to figure out what could happen and i was trying to make peace with it. >> i was horrified. >> maybe after a while everyone noticed that we should land. and i noticed that we had the sea. usually when you go to cairo you don't pass. somebody imagined it could be

that. one of the cam crews went to the passengers and collected all the passports. they just said that they had a problem and kind say anything more and they just needed passports. 45 minutes later one of the cabin crew members said that we had been hijacked. they didn't say where we were headed. that was it. >> the government has given protesters to leave a sit in on the capital streets they have been there since sunday. their supporters after killing a punjab governor after they

called for reform. 5,000 enforcers are on stand by around the protesters. we have this update. >> the interior minister said that thousands of policemen who have been employed and they were told they would not use any weapons that they would overpower the crowd and disperse the particular sitting in front of parliament on weapons. now the minister also saying that the media will be invited to witness how the government is going to disperse this crowd. now despite attempts by two clerics by the government side to try to convince the crowd they have not been successful. it is very important to see in what way the government is going

to take this protesters out. we have been told is a initially when the protesters came into islamabad on sunday they numbered in thousands. however, since then it has trickled down to just a few hundred people and it's not going to be an impossible task for the government to remove these people. but the interior minister also saying that they were cautious primarily because of the fact that they were using human shields old people as well as women. it's going to be very important to see what way the government is going to be able to result this crisis. >> staying in pakistan. the police have arrested over 200 people since sunday's park bombing in lahore, which killed 73 people. the arrests come as they have a military crackdown as prime minister sharif promises to

stamp out such attacks. the attacker said that he was targeting christians, but most of the victims were muslims. the bomb went off in a children's area. people in lahore have been calling for security to improve. >> something must be done for this. some solid steps must be taken. like terrorists should be the fitting answer. they should be caught. we're being terrorized. this was a sad incident. how awful is it that people come in were killed. >> well, we're joined in washington, d.c. the director of the institute of peace. thank you for joining us here on al jazeera. we're just hearing that since the attack of easter sunday in lahore the police in pakistan have arrested 200 people and questioned more than 5,000. this to me would indicate that

they obviously have a lot of suspicious about such activities in the area and perhaps didn't act on it sooner. what did those numbers suggest to you? >> i think that's absolutely right. you know, the conversation in pakistan's heart land, this conversation was something in punjab that needs to be done to root out the hotbed of extremism in southern punjab where this bomber hails from. this has been going on for years. this ising in new. the intelligence agency. the law enforcement have lead. they know where the areas are. they have said that they have geotagged as many 15,000 where they feel there may be a problem. all of this is known, the hesitant is really political. the ruler party right now is based out of punjab. they have a lot of support

there. they don't want backlash. they have a major operation going on in the triba areas of pakistan. there are a number of factors that would hold them back and people have known for a long time that the area of punjab is seriously problematic. >> do you see the events of sunday as a game changer, 73 people have died, but we all know that a lot more people than that have died due to these sorts of attacks in pakistan. >> look, i mean, i think this is not about laws. the laws exist. the laws have been revised. you remember the horrific attack on the public school in peshewar where they killed hundreds of children. they came in with counter

terrorism. all of that is in place. this is not about legislation. this is about political will and resolve. this is about smart strategy to root out terrorists without creating a major backlash within the pakistan which would be disastrous. this demands real policy, real action, and not talk. >> just link us to another story we've been following in pakistan. that is that sit in by supporters of the killer, who was hanged after killing a punjab governor after the latter one called for reforms and blasphemy laws. i'm not saying that the two are directly linked, but they have been described as a key moment in a long battle in what they call religious extremism. even the government accused the protesters there attempting to frustrate the government's drive against terrorism. would you link the two events

not so much as obviously anyone organizing the attacks in lahore, but more about the general fight that the government has on its hands right now? >> i think that's correct. there is no direct link in terms of terrorism. but quite frankly the ultimate solution to this problem does not lie to fighting. it lies in changing mind sets. when it comes to mind sets, the gentleman who blew himself up in lahore was going on an ideology that was identical to the sympathyers and those who stood up to say that he did the right thing. you cannot deal with these people who are sitting there in the same way, of course, because they are not terrorists in that sense. but the largest place is exactly the same. the challenge is much bigger than just targeting terrorists. the it has done fairy well to

prevent a lot of terrorist attacks, the number of attacks have gone down since four or five years ago. but the mindset, the intolerance that very much remains and that's really the root cause and the factory and the supply chain which needs to be checked if pakistan is going to bring sustainable peace to its people. >> live for us in washington, d.c. the director of south asia programs. sir, thank you so much for sharing your views with us. >> we have loots more coming up in this hour of news including presidential hopeful donald trump's campaign manager is charged with assaulting a journalist. missing millions, how large amounts of stolen u.s. currency has ended up in the philippines. and in sports fans and players pay tribute to the victims of the brussels bombings in an international friendly in suppor portugal.

>> the death toll in the brussels attacks have now been revised down to 32. authorities in belgium say that the moves made after thorough clarification. the area linked to attacks has been attracting attention from around the world. we go to the brussels suburb of monthl molenbeek. >> the neighbor of molenbeek is under scrutiny. it has intensified since the bombings of brussels a week ago. the focus is on a small group of radicalized young men. but some belgiums are starting to regard the whole muslim community can hostility. >> it's sad it has come to this. i saw the post yesterday that

said let's expel terrorists. when they say the islamists they really mean all muslims, and it's wrong to make such generalizations. >> we'll be here to defend otherwise and--ourselves and there will be trouble here. >> brussels had a foretaste of trouble on sunday. a few hundred extreme right-wing protesters marched to the square that has become a memorial to the victims of the attacks. their banner was anti-isil, but their chaptering was against immigrants in general. a stand off followed which police used water canons. spreading fear and mistrus mistrust is one of the objectives behind these attacks. isil wants to drive a wedge in communities across europe and

create a confrontation between muslim and non-muslim. >> belgium members of parliament have been debating security. it's calling for tough new controls on belgium citizens who happen to be muslim. >> they have to make a choice, or they reject sharia. they reject, and we want an official declaration. if they don't want to sign this declaration then they have to be expelled out of our country and out of europe. >> all of which stands in stark contrast to the message of peace and unity to the shrine of the victims. these attacks have been the test of democracy and and that challenge, and it's not over. >> let's go to iraq now where the prime minister hyder al abadi has met with

parliament. the new cabinet is aimed to fight corruption. >> any prime minister cannot work and succeed in serving the country without common understanding with the house of representatives. buts wills with the political blocks. therefore, it is not wise to present a cabinet list. doing this will defeat the purpose of cabinet reshuffle. hence the house of representatives should clearly outline what it is demanding from the prime minister. are they demanding reshuffle or are they demanding ministers from outside of the blocks and sectarianism. >> speaking earlier, we have more on this. wsir, thank you so much for joining us on al jazeera.

we just heard from the iraqi prime minister. just to put it in context he was asked on monday, now they'll meet in thursday. so three days. is he really asking for clarification, or is it his way of buying time, and if so do you think it will be successful? >> well, first of all he made the speech today saying that they will take two hours. it was a very disappointing speech because he does not actually make a road map of what he's going to do. the problem is that he has a very critical point in the political process inside iraq. the parliaments made a success in exceeding in his opportunity to meet on thu thursday.

he must take advantage of all his assistance, especially the international ones, the head of the international bank, the head of the islamic development bank, went to baghdad at saturday and said clearly that--the problems that we have until now that it is not exactly what is road map. in his speech he was very weak in front of the iraqis, in front of the political parties, and in front of those who have been striking against him and in front of the militia and in front of all these issues that it is major ones in iraq. that is security, the economy crisis and the-- >> we're having problems with the line to baghdad. i'm just going to try again.

i'm hoping that you can still hear me. the skype line is a little unstable. but let's persevere. what i would like to expound from you what you think is going to happen come thursday, the deadline comes for this new government. very influential cleric. he's not going to back down. he doesn't have that many representatives in parliament. not necessarily enough to overthrow al abadi. and if he is replaced, will he be replaced with someone who can deal with the problems that you have outlined? >> in the end we need a person with a road map, barbara. we have so many crisis in so many sectors. that means if al abadi didn't go in a way that you're going to solve all these problems in one cabinet in thursday, he will be

definitely have difficult moments that at the end maybe he will be replaced. and maybe this is the intention of the political blocs. then the political blocs get advantage of his weakness. we need him to do something in a way that it will not destroy political process in iraq. >> well, it will be very interesting days in iraq. for the moment director of the house of iraqi expertise foundation in baghdad, sir, thank you. now the campaign manager of republican presidential hopeful donald trump has been arrested and charged over an incident where he allegedly grabbed the female reporter. he has been charged with simple battery for intentionally grabbing and bruising journalist michelle fields. it happened at an campaign event

march 8th. for this alan fisher joins me live from washington. tell me more about this, and also more about the campaign manager himself. >> well, the police released a video that came from the trump property where this event was being held at the beginning of the month. it's hard to see exactly what happened, but at one point you can see the reporter following donald trump out of the room as reporters tend to do at the end of news conferences, trying to ask another question. then she's moved back she said with some force. and it appears that the hand that is pulling her back is donald trump's campaign manager. now, within hours she tweeted pictures of bruises she had on her arm. she said these were inflicted by the campaign manager. he said immediately afterwards that the reporter was delusional and they had never met. she reported the incident to the police. the police investigated and they have decided to charge him with

misdemeanor assault. well, in florida the bar is pretty low. if you lay your hands on someone else without consent you can be charged with misdemeanor assault. he is a former new hampshire police officer. he has never been in trouble with the police before. he's not looking for a lengthy jail sentence, the max is a year in prison. it's not as if he's going to be looking at a jail term. he'll end up getting probation but he denies the charges and he said he's looking forward to his day in court. >> something else grabbing the headlines, we're finally getting more details from the donald trump camp on what his foreign policy would be if he were to become president. what do we know about that? >> well, really again it's to the broad brush strokes. donald trump said the first thing he would like to do on the first day in office but he

doesn't know what the second and third thing would be. he would like to stop all imports from saudi arabia and that would put more pressure on them to do something more about isil. he said that what we would do is take hold of the oil in the middle east. when it was pointed out that that would take a lot of people and a lot of money and a lot of time, he said we'll just bomb the oil region in middle east. he also said things like when it comes to iran can you believe from the iran deal they get all these billions of dollars and they haven't spent any money with american firms. when it was pointed out that american firms are still under embargo from dealing with iran, he obviously just changed the subject. people are concern thad donald trump has an idea of what he would like to do, but he doesn't quite understand the geopolitics of it. he sees his foreign policies in

binary terms, he sees it in awith a that when america wins something else loses, and if america loses somebody else has won. >> alan fisher with the latest for us. thank you. still ahead on al jazeera. rehabilitation not incarceration. why the u.s. president is using his final months in office to explore new ways to tackle prescription drug addiction. hopes dashed, why tunisians still face unemployment five years on from the arab spring. and a cricket coach begs forgiveness from the country's fans after the twenty20 exit. details coming up in sport.

>> al jazeera america, proud to give voice to the voiceless. >> we are creating a class of adults exposed to mediocre education. >> there's bad people out there in these sports. >> we call chicago "chiraq" because we have more killers than iraq. >> in order to save my children, i had to try to save everyone else's. >> i had to encourage them... to tell them, there's a better way. >> i have to do my one hundred percent best so i don't end up in a place like this again. >> you have kids here who've killed someone? >> yes we do. >> my homie got shot five times. >> have you ever seen anybody get shot? >> highlighting threats to children around the world. >> it's very difficult for us. we don't have clothes, we don't have food. >> in terms of child labor, myanmar is ranked one of the worst in the world. >> do you make anything that ends up in walmart? >> yes. >> this is where a lot of america's clothes come from, and it's a reality many companies don't want us to see.

>> shelee, how old are you? >> 12 years old. >> shelee, do you go to school? >> i used to. >> the shells exploded right in the middle of the room. you have to remember that this was a school and the blackboard still has a lesson plan on it. >> this is imagery and scars impacting scores of children across gaza. >> pernilla ironside and unicef sponsor therapy for children who have lost a parent or a home. 10 year old ibrahim nasser lost both. thanks to the exercises, ibrahim can look forward. >> can you tell me what you want to be when you grow up? >> a doctor. >> why do you want to be a doctor? >> to heal the wounded. >> al jazeera america - proud to tell your stories. >> welcome back. a reminder of the top stories on al jazeera. the brazilian president dilma rousseff has just been dealt a

blow. a man hijacked an egypt airplane, all passengers were free from harm while the hijacker was arrested after giving himself up. pakistan's government has given supporters of executed killer. >> demonstrators shouted we love you. the soldier wases shown shooting a palestinian in the head in footage that has sparked condemnation around the world.

>> we're taken through the sequence of events that was captured on camera. it comes moments after two palestinians were shot after stabbing an israeli soldier. one was killed instantly. another is injured and is laying on the ground. fast forward and a second soldier appears to be speaking to a settler. he then makes his way to a colleague. they appear to have a conversation. the soldier cocks his weapon, and in five seconds later he shot him in the head, instantly killing him. >> i was taken surprise by the shooting. it was most violent. >> his home has been fire bombed. it's now being fixed. his are front door has been shot out. every member of his family has been harassed.

he said documenting life under israeli occupation in hebron is what it's about. >> i hope this video will reduce the cope of violence from the israelis towards the palestinians. i hope the israelis will do wisely in punishing the soldier. >> she said the soldiers are here. the soldier asks about our car parked outside and does not want us to be here. he tells us if we do not leave we will be arrested. it seems since the video was published the army doesn't want anybody here. the soldier is being investigated for murder, which is rare and led to an outcry of the israeli society who hold the army in high regard.

>> it has been called immoral and unjust. >> after healthcare and gun laws, the obama administration is using his last months in office to tackle opioid addiction. he spoke of treatment and rehabilitation rather than incarceration. for more on this one, we go to patty culhane in washington, d.c. patty, the president has made it a focus, but so far he has not solved the problem. >> no, especially if you look at the statistics, barbara, it's pretty overwhelming. since 2000, the number of opioid-related deaths have increased 200%. people overdosing on vicodin, oxycodone, and heroin. so now the president is takin taking what could seem to be minor steps. one thing he's doing is right

now there is a medicine that doctors can give heroin addicts to help with withdraw, but by law they're only allowed to see 100 patients at a time. the president will increase that to 200. the president is looking at a syringe swapping program, and going to medical schools discussing there is a danger of overprescribing pain pills. the country needs to start seeing this as a medical problem and not a criminal one. >> part of what has made it previously difficult to do over the criminal justice system has to do with the fact that the populations effected in the past were viewed as or stereotypically identified as poor minority, and as a consequence the thinking was it is often a character flaw in

those individuals who live in those communities, and it's not our problem they're just being locked up. and i think that-- [applause] >> so patty, is it lack of funding for the addicts themselves? >> it's a stark statistic. i was reading through some of the research. there is one study that said they estimate there is 2.3 million americans addicted to some sort of opioid. if they all chose to go into treatment today there would be a million of them who simply would have nowhere to go. we heard one doctor on the stage tell the story from baltimore. she said a woman came in to her repeatedly saying i want to seek treatment. the doctor found her a treatment center, but the delay was three weeks. the patient went home, was brought back a few hours later. she had overdosed from heroin. the doctor could not save her, and she decide in the e.r.

that's one of the many stories that you hear. this is one of the very rare areas of washington that might have some bipartisan support. i can't say that of any other topic, just to show you how widespread of an issue this is. republicans and democrats have gotten on board. the president has asked for $1 billion to increase the number of treatment center beds available. a bill to do that has passed the u.s. senate, and believe it or not it looks like to pass the u.s. house. washington might coming together to do something about this issue because it is such a growing epidemic. >> patty culhane with the latest from d.c. thank you. the mother of an italian student who was killed in egypt has said that he was so badly beaten that only the tip of his nose was recognizable. the body was found in february, nine days after he disappeared. his mother said items found in the house of a gang the egyptian government said had killed the student did not belong to julio.

>> i won't tell you what they did. on that face i saw evil. but more at that moment i thought of all the evil of the world had been poured on to him. why? why was all the evil poured on to him? on that face, which had bece so little, maybe the only thing i could recognize him, the only one was the tip of his nose. >> syrian officials say that they removed 150 bombs planted by the islamic state in iraq and the levant in palmyra's ancient arc local site. syria's head of antiquities and hue see yum say that a technical team had a returned to damascus after spending two days in the historic town but said they couldn't reach several areas because hundreds of mines were left. the troops captured the town from isil on sunday. police and refugees have

clashed at the greek border at macedonia. groups threw rocks at riot police as protests intensified after thousands ignored instructions from the government to move to organized shelters. the protesters have blocked freight rail tracks for the past eight days while demanding that the border reopen. let's go to yemen where the u.n.'s children fund says children are bearing the brunt of the civil war with six killed or injured every single day. in a new report it says that in the past year 934 children have been killed in more than 1300 injured. the 848 documented cases of soldiers with children as young as ten were being forced to fight. it's estimated that 10 million kids required humanitarian aid and the cases of severe acute malnutrition where the body starts to waste away have risen

from 160 from a year ago to double that, 320,000 now. well, the unicef representative said that the problem will not be solved until the conflict ends. >> the challenge is that the number of people who need assistance is so big it is not possible for one humanitarian organization to solve this. what will solve this is for the conflict to end. children have been blown up, injured in bombing. they're terrified. they're suffering because of the impact on the health system. weest made 1200 children will have died because of that. >> the trial of seven alleged somali pirates has started in paris. they're accused of hijacking a french yacht, killing it's owner and imprisoning his wife. the men are accused of taking

control of the yacht after it left the port city of aden. they killed the owner and kept his wife captive for 48 hours. the trial will focus on the role that the pirates played in the death, an. >> some good news how, the "world health organization" has announced the ebola virus is no longer a problem. they wilthey have suggested that bans on the countries of travel and trade in liberia and sierra leone.

>> when news of a candle involving the illegal sales of vaccines in china first broke, people here were worried and angry. the case revived concerns over food and drug safety. something that long has been an issue in china. now police say that the vaccines were all made by licensed producers. but because they're not stored properly the effectiveness may have been compromised. to reassure a parent, health officials in china and the "world health organization" issued statements saying that the vaccines are unlikely to caused a verse toxic events. the "world health organization" said that the greater danger is in parents losing confidence in immune nations and there by declining to have their children vaccinated. it says this case has exposed weaknesses in the supply system in china's vaccines.

>> the vaccines in the private sector need to be managed, stored, distributed and used with recognized standards. >> there are vaccines in china ar are inherently safe, but the sales regulations need to be tightened. >> al jazeera has. >> listening to the state of emergency in rakine state.

>> historical and crucial moments. outgoing president same thing said in a statement that the situation in rakine no longer poses a threat. the situation heat up in 2012 during a conflict between buddhist from r akhine and muslimust rohingya. thousands left myanmar and ended up in thailand, malaysia and indonesia. rohingya muslims here in myanmar are stateless. they have no rights and they have no treatment of movement. lifting the state of emergency right now one day before handing over power makes many wonder if the military is not only willing to hand over the presidency but willing to hand over a very crucial and sensitive problem to the next problem.

aung san suu kyi herself has not revealed how she's going to resolve one of the big problems here in this country. >> a hear something under way in manila to determine how millions of dollars stolen from the u.s. reserve ended up in the philippines. we have reports now from ma fill la. >> philippines say this man has all the answers. >> i've been accused of many things, i'm here now to tell the truth. >> kim wong is a chinese natural raised in the philippines. he sat in front of politicians to explain himself. investigators believe kim knows how millions of dollars were stolen from the bangladeshi government account in new york. he said he had no idea who was behind the subur cyber theft

but admits to handling the money once it reached the philippines. >> it all began last month when hackers tried to steal $1 billion. they managed to break the protocols of the federal reserve bank in new york. they stole $81 million and investigators say $21 million of that could be traced to kim. the stolen money was wired to the commercial bank the rcbc in the philippines. it was then transferred to various casinos. it shows how the it may have left the banking industry open to money laundering. they say that banks and wire transfer companies are not at liberty to disclose details without a court order.

>> they have launched an inquiry into how it's security failed. it's governor has resigned. the rcbc bank has changed internal procedures. they know this is a complicated financial scandal that covers three continents and say they don't have all the answers yet. the philippines are not the biggest economy in the asia pacific but it has seen steady growth and increased foreign investment in recent years and the authorities would like that to to continue. cases like this could damage the reputation of the philippines and give cause for potential investors to reconsider their future plans. >> well, sport is coming up next on al jazeera. we're going to have the latest from the masters where players are fighting for a quarterfinal

place.

>> a moment of violence marked the start of france's international friendly. they would take the lead. they will extend their lead shortly before getting the

visitors on the score sheet in the second half. but france would score from three kicks to make it 3-1. they would keep the pressure on the hosts and france would grab one more to grab a 4-2 win. fans and players pastry butte to the victims of the brussels bombings last week. brussels in a friendly, but that game moved to the portuguese city for security reasons. portugal planning to win this behalf, 2-1. there was quite a busy need of football across europe. greece ended a two-goal lead to lose to ice lan. and the world champions germany with rainers against italy. in africa first confirm team has now been confirmed.

they would secure a place in continental tournament with the 2-0 win over cape verdi. the nigeria has been locked out of qualifying. egypt on the verge of tickets of 2017. lie beer are a hosting matches have given their fans something to smile about taking top spot with group eight. going 1-1 against sudan. and aaron champions on top of the world cup quo filing group they would reach the 2018 finals in russia.

the socceroos taking on jordan. jordan thrashed 8-0, and it became a reality check for that team. the socceroos would win 5-1, and organizebly the goal of the night. they would take the third and final place of asian qualifying. and in japan they scored five goals against syria. the first was a goal in which the keeper managed to punch the ball into the face of his only defender. quite bizarre. goals and plenty of them across asia. saudi arabia continue to lead the way in group a during 1-1.

there were wins for china and iraq. the palestine put seven past. and the latest from the masters where they would secure a quarter final place. also through to the last eight, going through three sets, 6-4, 3-6, and 7-5 the score. new zealand will take on india, one team that did not make it, pakistan, they won one game and lost three others.
