ah, our new series follows football is from 6 countries hoping to make it to catch us 2022. and at some point that i had to choose between football and my studies, this episode meets 3 young men from morocco, striving to make that childhood dreams come true. my, you know, my cup abilities and i know where i want to reach the world cup dream. morocco on al jazeera. there was a time to be direct. there is a growing realization that rights can be taken away in this country to cut through the rhetoric. how can we resist this narrative and ha, dangerous, and demand the truth? join me markham, on hill, for up front on al jazeera. ah, this is al jazeera ah,

hello, i'm tom mccrae. this is the news. how alive from dar ha, coming up in the next 60 minutes. russian missiles target ukraine's power grid triggering blackouts as far as neighboring moldova, 2 explosions during morning rush hour wished jerusalem kill one person, and injure at least 18 others. families and indonesia bury the dead after monday's powerful earthquake. the kills more than 270 people. and whist. java also are hundreds of workers protest against delayed wages at the world's largest. i phone factory in china and in the world cops, japan pull off a surprise when against for time champions, germany. ah,

we begin this, use our in ukraine where russian missiles have targeted the nation's power grid, large parts of the country and now without electricity as winter sets in, this has affected the avery, even the neighboring, moldova, where half of the nation has been plunged into darkness. and in ukraine's capital cave officials say at least 3 people were killed when russian is strikes, targeted a residential building. well worry challenge joins us now live from cavan. obviously these are widespread attacks. can just bring us up to date with our how affected key visit tonight? well 1st of all, i'm just going to step aside so you can see that skyline behind me, it's almost complete darkness business as barely a light on in any building. the few that do have lights on. well, they're lucky enough like the one that we're in at to have a diesel generator as back up looking down. that street level, no lights on, on the streets,

the only lights the. the headlights and the tail lights are of the cars. it's the result of the latest round of missile strikes are on targets across the whole of the country. it is an extensive role. cool. i'll go through the list of cities at the moment they have no or little power here where i am khaki of denise pro la viv creevy, rig rib near lutes, michel, i of a desa sumi pulse harbor manor crowds mounted ski and jet amir. you can see from that list that these strikes have effected huge parts of this very, very large country. we know that it is also impacted a neighboring country mold over the deputy prime minister there is said that half of moldova is without power as well. there is no running water at the moment in here, this capital city of some, 2000000 people to of the nuclear power stations down in the south of the country. they've been taken off the grid as well because of the strikes they're running,

an emergency or protection at the moment. this is the latest in several rounds of similar waves of missile strikes, basically designed to cripple ukraine's power infrastructure to plunge the country into darkness. they began on october the 10th, and there may well be more to come in, rory, it's still just her power infrastructure that is being targeted. is it residential buildings? they're also being had as that. right? yes, that's right. so the, the, the current death soul that we understand from the latest route of miss ald strikes is that for many more people injured and earlier on in the day over nights there was a horrible incident down in this apparition region just outside the city of parisha . where a maternity unit was hit by a rocket fire and a newborn baby, just been alive. hertford, for 2 days out in the well for 2 days, was killed

a mother, understandably, in a deep state of shock. 2 of the doctors from that hospital were, were severely injured and they all had to be dug out by the rescuers. now, this comes on a day where the european parliament has voted to declare that russia is a state sponsor of terrorism. and it is exactly these sorts of things that ukrainians are pointing to and saying, look, yes, of course, russia is a terrorist state. the look at what it's doing now. it's not quite as clear cut as that when it comes to the targeting of power infrastructure, because international law actually says that, you know, if that power infrastructure is being used by the military, then it's not necessarily classes, just a civilian targets. but if the russians feel that they are breaking the will of ukraine breaking the will of the military break in the will of civilians by the source of attacks. well, at the moment i have to say, speaking to ukrainians,

there's no evidence of that is actually happening. a cavalry challenge and keep thank you. a police in israel say to coordinated attacks, killed a teenager, and injured at least 18 people in west jerusalem. it follows weeks of tensions between israeli forces and palestinians after nightly raids in the occupied west bank. helen fisher reports from wisc jerusalem. this is the 1st explosion, silent on video, but deadly. at least one person killed at a jerusalem bus station, 14 others injured is really police believe a bag containing explosives was left at the scene and detonated from some distance by mobil 4 and a short time later across the city in the suburb of remote. a 2nd explosion, this time explosives packed into a motorbike, the metal guardrail taking most of the blast, absorbing nails and bolts wrapped around it to cause maximum casualties. police

believe these were coordinated attacks. it's been years since there's been attacks like these on the transport system in jerusalem. a very dangerous development, say government and security officials. israel security minister visited both scenes for an update, and as he left, he spoke to al jazeera very, eh, difficult. if i may say terrorist attack to terrorist attack, there's no question that the, the, that there was a synchronization between them where they was want, or ish, or several terrorists. we don't know yet, but i'm sure that we will find them. we'll catch them dead or alive, it might, may take days or weeks, but we will catch them. both areas are blanketed by security cameras. footage is no being reviewed. even the smallest detail is being scanned for close the explosions follow months of tensions in the occupied west bank between israelis and palestinians. and echo a series of attacks on the transport system between 2002005 security patrols on

buses have now been stepped up, the palestinian group, hamas speaking from garza praised the attacks, but stopped short of seeing it was behind them. the man expected to be appointed that the new security minister in the next cabinet ultra nationalist, politician, it m r, been given called for a hard line against those behind the attack. as it's of league vote with you. we have to strike price for this terrorism. i say clearly, we need to back up our soldiers and our policeman and return to attack the killing and scrub those responsible leg brought with you about the buses were soon back running as normal. but the feeling in the city after the twin attacks is anything but alan fisher al jazeera west jerusalem. well in spring in l, just here as senior political analyst, my one, the shower, thank you very much for joining us. this comes after weeks of tension between israeli forces and palestinians after not the rights in the occupied with bank. do

you think that this is now a tipping point into even greater escalation of violence? well, i would say it's, it's just, it's yet another tipping point, right? because they've been, we've been seeing so many of these stripping points that we could easily categorize the situation as a state of violence, meaning for some 50 plus years now, right. you've been going on. most of it, of course, happens in the occupied territories. and sometimes it's kind of spilled over into israel as palestinians take actions against israelis. sometimes a soldier, sometimes israeli civilians. but the situation has been going on and the violence has persisted. the last few days we've seen stabbings. we've seen shootings. i certainly have seen israeli incursions invasions destroying of houses, even of a schooling recently. but what we're seeing today in particular, what is new, what is new z? if i may say so today is that we have

a qualitatively different kind of an attack. it is well organized, it's well, it planned, it happen, simeon dangerously in 2 different places. and now we're at the end of the day. and the israeli security officers promise that we will find the terrorists and we're going to capture them or kill them. remains to be seen. so this is the kind of an attack that is scared of most when there is read, a planning has gone into it. it's not just a vengeful attack. it's not just kind of a lone wolf attack. it's very well organized. yeah, obviously yahoo has just been re elected, helping a test. do you think this will be for him? especially even before he takes the office officially? i think that any our, his government are going to take advantage of this. i'm not going to say that they are happy about it and probably they are not, i mean, per se, for the death of israelis or the, the injury. but clearly, politically speaking,

i think they're cynical enough to be taking advantage of this. we're going forward in order to besiege the occupied territories even more than before. and as we've heard from probably a potential new minister, the new government, mr. here that we're probably going to see more assassinations off palestinian leaders probably more incursions. and again, as you know, commended probably the minute is really maybe that is going to be taking even tougher actions against the proceedings of best possible at all to go even tougher . what, what is totally ridiculous about the situation is that we've heard these statements over years and years over decades as if there is a security solution to the problem in israel, palestine, if anything, this kind of an operation tells us is that these really security measures over the last few weeks and months have not worked and the new government might take even

tougher measures. but the palestinians, some 7000000 of them, will continue to resist the occupation in whatever means some of them legitimate. some of them not so legitimate. so you see, this is spiraling further into further finance. you imagine from this point on there are 3 ingredients. why this will really explode? one the end of any political horizon with the america administration, bishop cleaning his hands of this thing. there is no political horizon and a new israeli government that is committed to annexations illegal annexations expanding the settlements and further cracking down on the palestinians. and 3rd, there is no serious unified palestinian leadership. hence, a lot of young people in palestine are taking matters with their hands. some of them organized within the camps and the refugee camps. some of them, as we see today, the connections in israel proper. okay, thank you so much for your time. this now and the shower,

our senior political analyst. thank you. la meeting between east african leaders and, and golden president, joel lorenzo has ended in luanda. it was aimed at stopping the bloodshed by him $23.00 fighters in the eastern democratic republic of congo. we're going to go live to malcolm with in goma, and can you explain what's come out of the meeting? will run the president who was in that room is widely understood to back the $23.00 group, although it denies it. rwanda sent to foreign minister instead. congos president felix just to katie was the actual mcadam president, who can you ask about that as with the mediator? so all right, and so president of the people are going to be wondering if the lack of government attending the what we're going to be presidential level of talks is going to be a reflection of one was rwanda's commitment to them. but they published

a communique cooling on the street to see via by the end of friday, 48 hours from now. they said it should withdraw from the territory that taken it should be saw and had them selves over to the congo leads armed forces. and the communique also said that the displace people, the un says, is now nearly 300000 people displaced by these recent advantage. of m 23. they should go home within 7 days and these things meant to be a free cut to the continuation of a peace process in kenya's capital nairobi waiting to see we've contacted them 23 waiting to find out their response. and crucially, people here are going to be waiting to see if indeed m 23 does cease fire when they were being cool. threat to do so before they haven't. and campaign is here. say, it's any with substantial diplomatic and military pressure on rwanda. that that

will actually happen. okay, thank you. that is malcolm with for us and gamma in indonesia, communities and mourning the loss of their loved ones after mondays, earthquake and whist. java funerals are taking place for some of the victims. officials say 271 people were killed and thousands were injured. heavy ryan's have been slowing down the rescue teams in the challenger district where a landslide buried an entire village. but the, if it's pied off for one family when 5 year old as car was pulled alive from the rubble, he'd been watching tv in his bedroom when the earthquake struck. his mother and one other person were killed in the house. his grandfather and brother also survived. jessica washington has more on the search and rescue operation. well, i'm here to get now, which is a subs district of ginger. this is one of the areas that was affected by landslides,

which followed the earthquake. you can see some of the houses behind me damaged but more significantly, the damage that has been done to the houses that you can no longer see because of the land slide. in this area, there were some 25 houses. and what we've heard from speaking through the head of this community is that around 36 people, missing 5 bodies have been found so far. but there are also concerns, not only for the residents that is immediate area, but also the people who passed by. it's hard to picture it in this stage as, as it looks right now. but this is a busy residential area. and also many people pass through this road on their way to school, on their way to work into their concerns for the people who may have just been passing by. when this landside hit. and right now you can see quite quite a flurry of activity here as rescue is try to find some of the bodies of, of the missing people. this is an area where basically what we've heard from speaking with community authorities that the houses here were pushed down when the

land slide hit. basically many of sending many of them down towards the river, a distance of about 50 meters. and also you can see scattered throughout this, the soil just put the symbols of daily life, children's toys, teddy bears, clothing and, and things like dinner plates, somehow on damaged and looking, as they would have done, despite all this devastation that surrounds us. officials in turkey or say they have had nearly 500 kurdish targets in northern syria since sunday to key is presidents reach of tape. edwin has told parliament that he is more determined than ever to secure the southern border. the defense ministry says at least 250 members of the kurdish forces have been killed. the strikes follow last week's bombing in istanbul for which to key it blames the kurdish outlawed group. the p k. k. anchor says it's targeting bases and syria belonging to the kurdish group, y p g,

enter it from sin jar to syria. so some of the experts say that is the primary of the operation. the primary goal of the operation is to finish. what is also about to end in, in northern iraq to kia, has been conducting these operations against the kick in northern iraq after they failed to attempt it since 2016. but also they are a softening. they are targets through those a campaigns. but at the end of the day, a turkish officials are a very determined to finish what they consider as a terrorist threat. coming from northern syria to inside took here. and also, a turkish president has always been saying that he wants to build a safe corridor on it's southern, on to case southern border to kia has nearly 800 kilometers of border with syria. and at the more than half of it is on the eastern side of the euphrates and at to

a time for some, a quick update from afer world cup happening here in kata a short while ago for time. world comp, when is germany were beaten by japan? the germans took the leads back to 2nd half goes from the similar i blew. gave japan a to one when kelly for stadium, germany place spain and their next game off the group stage. it's another, the big upset in the group stages on day 4 of the tournaments will earlier the runners up from the last football world cup a made a stuttering stats to the academy campaign. croatia have been held to a school, a straw by morocco, midfield master luca mudrinich played a big part in croatia as best if it's, but the moroccans were boyd by saudi arabia's shock victory on tuesday. against argentina.

o 2 other news nouns, scotlands 1st minister says she'll find another way to hold a legal independence referendum after the u. k. supreme court said the vote cannot happen without london's approval. the conservative government says the question was settled in a 2014 referendum when a majority of those who voted rejected the proposal. a referendum is the base we to determine the issue of independence. the fact is, the s m p is not abandoning the referendum route, westminster is blocking it. and in that scenario, unless we give up on democracy and again, for the avoidance of any doubt, i for 1 am simply not prepared to do that. we must, and we will feigned another democratic lawful and constitutional means by which the scottish people can express their will. with scotland has long had

a debate about the question of full independence from the u. k. in 1997 scots voted for the creation of a devolved scottish parliament within the u. k. but many within scotland were not satisfied by the level of autonomy it offered. the scottish national party continued campaigning for full independence and of referendum happened in 2014, a 35 percent of scots voted against leaving the u. k. but after breaks edwards, a majority of scots rejected the 2015 referendum scottish 1st minister nicholas sturgeon, said, a new independence vote was required. landry, wilson's an activist with the campaign time for scotland. he won't scotland to be independent. he's had a demonstration at the scottish parliament in edinburgh and joins us now live. thank you very much for being on this news. our. how angry are you and the other protesters are with today's court decision some good evening. it's great to be joining you. i'm joining you from,

you can see the scottish parliament building behind me on right to the center, right. by here. i think that the campaign was across to help you today of disappointed by the result, by the decision and supreme court campaigners. i'm not particularly surprised, and i think what has happened is that the decision that was handed down was morning has galvanized on. we'll continue to galvanized people even more than unblocked. we'll see more campaigning, for example, in edinburgh today, but also and 15 different locations all across scotland. and indeed in 6 different countries across europe. i guess you can campaign as much as you like. but do you think that whitman said whitman is actually going to give you a chance? are they going to give you another referendum? do you think that i think ultimately we the youth, the u. k. operates in a, in a, in a death, in a democratic context. and a democratic world that and the situation that arises to day as of the decision from the supreme court this morning, is that old is that, unlike most other countries in the world, at the moment,

the votes of scots do not matter in the westminster parliament. that at westminster little $530.00 english empties under a $63.00 scottish empties. as a result, the wishes of the scottish by parliamentarians and the wishes of the people that they represent will never county the county that carried the day in westminster. and as a result, the democratic deficit is not very, very clear on that cannot continue where she scenic as to the people of scotland. just want the government to get on with the major issues that are facing the u. k. and others have said, you just need to get over your obsession with independence. what's your message to then that the, the 6 of the circumstances that we ran in scotland and the u. k. at the moment where we like cost of living crisis. that for example, those circumstances make it even clearer than ever that knows the time for independence, scotland as of a, were, is a very lucky country. and so far as we are, we have an abundance of energy, both carbon based energy on green energy. we have significant amounts of onshore

and offshore wind, untitled for that. and despite that, the cost of electricity, the cost of energy in scotland is amongst the highest in the western world. now those circumstances arise, which is control of the energy markets is deval to london. and as a result, scott cannot address that. the other issue is that we can see at the moment i can terms of that the we can see also the immediate politics in the u. k. that in the autumn statement by the chancellor last week that there was nothing safe at all with regard to helping and protecting parents and children. a contrast, the scouts of the smell dish government not pursuing a payment on the scottish child payment, which provides families to qualify with $25.00 funds a week that and so there is some char, clear divergence know in the wishes and the politics of people of scotland and the rest of the u. k. a can, we can have to leave it there. thank you sir. my said is andrew wilson and activists said with the campaign time for scotland. thank you. la protest that the world's largest apple i phone factory in china has turned violent videos on social

the point neither side able to find the back of the net. as another european heavyweight is an action on wednesday about him at face canada to a back up the wildcard office with the like to say joining me in the studio for the show off football analyst, usher. com. gotcha. and a demo saladas could get confusing with a couple of demos on the sat. we will get more from babbitt shortly. now this wildcat keeps throwing up. surprises, doesn't it? this time it's germany with plenty to think about. they were beaten by japan in that opening game, and that's after the 14 champions went to head in the 1st half off to a goalkeepers, misstate. ok, going to one successfully converting the spot kick, to give germany the leads to prom night. didn't give up and began to come back when ritz to do i level things up with just 15 minutes ago. just as the game looked to

be done. japan pushed for the when they got it. when substitute san a completed a fine finish to a solo run site, see one at the final 4 and undoubtedly a great moment for the japan team you reached the last 16 for years ago. jeremy, they may be having thoughts of failing to get out of the group stages for a 2nd tournament in a right now. and the richardson was watching that game for us at the college for international stadium. we can join him now. say, andy, well, this is turning into a world cup of surprise isn't it really is. and i think failed advantage doesn't have to be a real thing, doesn't it? if we go back to the recent history of the wells comp in 2010 in south africa, that was the time that had gone up to set up an almost making 3 the semi finals

when asia last posted. it will come back in 2002, then it was hosted by tap for japan. south korea got through to the semi finals and from the look of it, it's a real thing. it's not just, well just in our heads we're seeing on the pictures. well, saudi arabia being college of pain recalls yesterday. and now this when again, full time, when is germany? japan, they do have a lot of experience in that. they have come through asia mollifying very easily. well, they normally do, they normally struggle to make much of an impact that they got through the last 164 years ago would be by belgium, $32.00. but it takes it to a whole new level talking to that to say it is pretty much the biggest result in that football history and the to go schooled by players who play that in germany at the you. what about germany? what let them off to this results

well, you'd like to think they wouldn't panic. not often jimmy coming from a deployment around, and that was the case before kick off. the case after the final will go. i just, well documented the went out of the group stage 4 years ago. there will be some bother from england in the last 16 and the euros last year. it was a coach and hung to cover a serial winner. i mean, he was by me, great in month 7 high school is part of the coaching staff. when they won the world talking to when people team, i mean the way positives from this game, tomorrow me see all of the teenagers from bon mean. it looks absolutely fantastic. he could well be one of the breakout stuff of this well top, but they do lack extremely curious. it was, he was abundantly obvious that a lot of possession and a lot of pressure in the 1st off in particular the couldn't convert it into goals and it cost very similar, very similar tempo again,

to be honest and sina saudi right. the game went by germany dominated go to penalty, couldn't convert the pressure into more goals. and now they're under a great deal of pressure. i'm going into the next game against another european. have you i, spain, so germany staring down the barrel. what could be another early exit from a well come now? jail. yes, andy, they certainly have what to do, don't they? andy richardson that thank you for now. now jemma, if i can just bring you in 1st sight. when israel was made as well cut drawers made and this great was drawn out, i think it's fair to say most people would expect spain and germany to progress. but this result. what is this done for the group? it leaves this group is wide open and i think that the spain were concerned about that game all about germany now. they know they really need to focus on getting the, the 3 funds later today and also with japan because they prove to be strong, coming from behind again,

germany. i think that will be also some concerns in spain because they will be in the national teams. they have proven that to be in trouble in this opening games. we saw it with denmark. we saw it a little bit with front of the very beginning, not later croatia. and now germany is so i think it leaves this group very exciting . probably with the content of let's see what authority has to has to say, but it's yet another surprise. and if we just, well japan, have they been underestimated to do think absolutely. you know, just like you said earlier, when the draw, you know, was done here and door, everyone said ok. so that's a easy group. it's just, you know, spain and germany. but now japan, you know, they've shown that they have a proper fighting spirit. it's really just typical of their culture back home, the country you know, that work together. you've seen the funds, you know, try and clean the stadiums every time they've left. you know, the players cleaning the dressing of that sort of, you know, brings them together and just keeps them going. and, you know,

tell them that they come into this game as under dogs. and you know, they're going to surprise many people even just after this game. so if i could just bring you back in, do you think germany a still going to get out of this group then? or do you think it's, they should. i mean, if you look at the quality of the squad it's, it's really an amazing team and i think they have less pressure than the previous woke up in russia where they were defending champions. and with this jargon love era, it sounds a fleet he brought something new and i attended some of the previous friendly and nationally games. and i thought i was looking something similar like by you mention the opening games are always complicated. i think they are still one of the favorite, the in this will be to go 3 and he said that in his life, no reason to panic. now you touched upon spain that jim of the 2010 champions are about to start the world cup campaign. in group e, they take on costa rica, we will be live there shortly. but 1st, let's learn more about this fixture with samantha johnson. well,

cook finals often when great plays choose to retire one final and the biggest the stages and then a fond farewell less frequent is one of the old gods coming up again. and i me directly up against one of the hottest new talents in the gave hi, i'm samantha johnson. this is wealth cup one. 0 one. bryan ruiz has by any standard had expected akeelah career. he's 37 and remains captain of 30. he's played in england, belgium, portugal, you name it, he was the only certain pick to go to the 16 years in the side. country owes him, but it's not romance that keeping him back. also, we can have only meant one world cup in the left when 2 years threes will be up against one of the most expect teenagers in the world. his c stepped forward, petro gonzalez, lopez, also known as peggy said, he has made more than $100.00 payments for spain at the club. barcelona,

and left alma pains coach describes him as a new teen folk, a still a short piece of 19th birthday. spain has a serious chance of success at all. 2022. they won the world back in 2010 and the slides crammed with thought helen take. the captain said he was getting paid in south africa in 2010 and coach louis. enrique reserved special plays for this land of other more after 18 year old had to be is a teen justin's lucky to get you interested in football? mind spanish fans a form of noise? ah. well, i was promised. we can now go to our summit stadium where we can join a joanna, guys, roscoe, who is going to watch this game for us. so jo, this is a young spanish team. is that a risk? all it could be a risk. yes, but you know, this is a young team and a new era. i go to best 2nd well cup title. in fact there's only one player in

the quad currently from the 2010 when as of the world cup. and that said, you're with cats and he leads that team he 34. when you consider that the rest of the average is an age of $25.00, it could be a risk. putting so much pressure on the shoulders of gabby petri fussy, april of 19. and 20 a respect to me, but also don't forget that they all boss relating to players and they used to playing at the top level of football. they are the rising stars in the spanish league, and they played champions, no crowd that they have experience on the coast to reconcile. well, that is a very different story because 6 of those play is from the 2014 squad. that was that when all the way to quote final, which is the best result, the costa rica had now i wanted to bring in carolyn and victor, who are costa rican funds. there's only a few of them here, but they are going to make up great with a lot of cheering. carolyn,

what do you expect from this game? it's definitely going to be a tough game where we're here for it. we have experience players, we have the youth that's going to give us the speed. so we're confident that we could put up a fight definitely. and fix, you know, you've got a lot of older players. is the team living in the past perhaps so if not, who should we be looking out for that from the younger? yeah, we have a nice job going to start new time. so. ready i hope the younger guys is going to help us. when do we have we think about they can maybe 1010. we can win today. you know, with a carolyn you got 2000 and funds expected pay. how are you going to make up for that when you got so many of the same funds there? is that just us we have people support enough cut bodies at the body. now, people from america to emily, friend, so we're not alone. right, well we're going to let you go because i know you really want to hear that i

enjoy. well, that was the polls. i'm carol and victor that costa rica it is a minority funds. i mean 2000 and the rest of them roll spanish. but we'll have to wait and see because of course we have seen upsets already so far this tournament, so perhaps customer could come to one. we haven't seen plenty of upset. so john guys are all good at. thank you for that. now we're going to let you enjoy the game jemma. i want to speak to you 1st about spain. of i know you covet spanish football extensively. we can week out. we've seen the team. know our a morale for spain. what do you make of that mission? well, spain, that's probably the problem. they have, they have no goal and these in a walk up no or no glory. they have this lack of quality. the final 3rd that when we think about to number 9, a top strike and they don't have that. so losing because deciding to take another kind of forward line and putting that question,

seal relevant with player who hasn't been enjoying so many minutes. but he will be playing us for 9 and he will be waiting for a lot of crosses from both foreign taurus and any all more. that's one of the questions marks about spain, because the rest of the team and maybe we'll talk about the goalkeeper. but the rest of the team is really powerful, even though it's a very young thing under construction. will they be able to to score to that? well, that's probably the question, monica rely related to spain. yes, it certainly isn't in our shop for that repugnance of costa rica can they repeat the achievements of 2014 and reach the quarters? i think it's going to be very difficult because you know, spain a very, you know, experience side. and after watching that game, you know of germany, they trying to make sure that they come up top of that group. they have a lot of experience, but kayla novice will be very key for them. jo campbell does, you know, play is that i've played at the highest level, so they'll be, you know,

inspiring, you know, the youngest grad, but also they know this is probably their last woke up. so that as well, just throw everything onto the beach and see if they can get some things against spain for the best result i think called, or you can get is a draw. well, absolutely they, they've got, i think literally as you say, say we're just going to go to the 1st game the day now and gives us a little bit of an idea of what happened in that the opening match in a group f, this one, know the classic if finished goal is between morocco and corporation, even parents, it's getting close. early on for croatia. they kept the pressure through the game, but morocco a go keep. i kept them out or she kept in moderate chills like going place, but not able to take advantage of rebound. as his team had the better of the play by side. pat jones is doing, but it ended mill mill getting to the final 4 years ago and a slight thought for them this time around or ok. still hoping to get out of the

print stages for the 1st time since 1986. now like i say this one wasn't a classic, not a lot to talk about in terms of john says, which of those 2 sides do you think will be happy with that results? i think marco will be happy with the goal is to draw, you know, you're playing against the team that rich the final at the last edition of the woke up, but also they'll be disappointed that they couldn't score. we so i knew yesterday tenicia, they did the same thing, do a very good defensively, but they could have done with a goal. i think that i came to the edge, obviously joining the team after the band that he had on himself under the previous codes. he'd holly hoards ich just, you know, bringing that, you know, fire into this squad. you could see from the footage from the stadium. we there, you know, i sure if i keep trying to tell the guys, yeah, let's continue. let's fight and, and try and get something from that game, but they need to score upfront. some of their players play the guitar and,

you know, during the arab cap and they could use some of that experience really going forward . and i think that they can get something from that group. it's very tough for them . but a coach, you know, has to do a better job in terms of getting the side to attack more so that they can give themselves a good performance. but the goalkeeper bundle in front sassik job is, you know, had a lot of experience that severe and that should help them going forward in the tournament. well out is there, a correspondent, thomas levis, vacovich was at sal 8 stadium of 4, and again, no risk, no glory, disappointing goal or has draw for gray, should the favorite against morocco and vel desert point for the african side. gratia didn't to risk wages for counter attacks and lack the final bad. the final touch and final attempt, the same goes for morocco whose shots were basically mostly blocked by the creation defenses, stubborn defense. there were just 7 attempts on target or off target on each

site throughout the match. almost no tackles, no yellow cards. tactical game out in which are both. so i decided it's important not to lose look a mortgage once again. men of to match. he tackled, he intercepted, he created, but gray shot lack the final bass and bravery to go forward. if the players say like they say, give a 100 percent, this was gracious, 100 per cent. i wonder what will happen to them in the next game. you might expect another surprise by the athletic team of canada. now now joined by some morocco fans, he was at that gain say, what did you make that way you pleased with that results? so demand is ended there like in a drought, but you are happy for it or did you think it was a and do you think this gives you

a good chance? now you feel optimistic, you have are always optimistic, moroccan people are always optimistic, so maybe, well, we hope that we will win against benjamin much. we know. so let's focus will be there to support our team. so we see that you are happy with this arizona. yeah, again, scratch and nothing is list missing is less and have you. i had you've been to the wild cup in rush, 4 years ago. how does this experience so far in cattle compare to russia 4 years ago really, we came here because if i, despite all the critics that we heard all the get you to very bad things about scripts are about the condition of the which was what god, by our so we came here to see our son, and really everything is we were amazed. everything is, is amazing, gets i'm of organisation, div safety. it's like russia full friendly,

like all people say like in social media like, got all the stuff like all the speak news, but we are really friends like people are so so really are so guy and, and your organization are just amazing. i mean maybe the one where we play like the amazing like yeah. we you guys are going to be sticking around. wow. i have fuel sake. broker will be in a little bit longer so you can stay enjoying your time here on the roku. thank you. well, let's have the last games that i have. some goals kinda play that 1st well, cook game in 36 years. they got to catalogue 2022 by finishing a top of north american qualifying a beast for the canadians is best stop play up. i'm you next at 22 year old

defender alfonso davies. he has recovered from a sy, injury competition element against belgium will be a real good test for the staff for the play is something we'll we'll learn from. but more importantly, so we're gonna really good awards and i think that's, that's the opportunity we have here. i think coming into a game like this, we don't have a great amount to lose, just genuine opportunity to make it r o co final. and that's, that's what it is for canada. canada face at bow jim, he reached the semifinals at 4 years ago. they are, they are missing one of their so called golden, a generation injured, strike a romilly cock. it was expected to miss at that 1st to grape matches for the ball is a huge, respectful what kind of a has achieved because festival, when you finish top of the group and ahead of national teams like usa and mexico,

that means that there is a real substance, there's not a concept that you arrive into woke up. we know how difficult to get to the walk up . and canadian terms as a 2nd time, 1st time was in 86 so. so the way you know that these generation has something very, very special. they look like a team, they never look a group of players come in to get it to represent the national team. they look like a team vertically and their concepts further very dynamic competitive team that, that they know their strengths. so java rumbly, call keys fitness, a big talking points. if he's not able to play any part in this well cut, or if he's not 100 percent, how much will that hamper belgians chances do you think? well, it the facts, of course, he's a grade striker and he's not like there are no medical martinez because someone to that can give so many so much quality in the forward line. and there is another question. and then hassan, he has barely played in grad madrid,

but it's true that he's from player work when he's with belgium, national team for me, even though lucas won't be fit until at least the 3rd game. for me, belgium is one of the candidates and they have so much quality they have been working so well over a decade. it's true that they haven't been able to to, to chill bird but they've been working well and they have the best working. but in the world give a call to our so of course not counting on luca, cool. it's a said back, but they are still one of the for me more powerful games and i shall, we must obviously just speak about kinda welcome return for them. it's 36 years ago was the last time they qualified for woke up. how do you think that rec, spec stations are going into this tournament? when you talk about kind of in terms of sports, everyone thinks about ice hockey and basketball. you know, the toronto raptors but you know, just looking at this young square, it has a, you know, a very fine, you know, group of players who went to fight for each other and want to come and make a statement here. no one expect so much from them, but they want to come here and make a statement. so in this particular game,

they're going to come up against a very experienced side that, you know, also has a point to prove their bad quality players. you know, belgium, but now this is their real test and i think they'll give it a go on. i'm sure that the funds that it is going to be excited to be that to watch their site. it's been a long old white, hasn't it? now that one man helping the players that look good at this world cup is who sent sacker. he's excited about this tournament and he's close to. many of the cats are team in fact more, more than half of them go to his barbershop. ah i'm for some supper from tunisia. oh, my mom, she's a 1st lady's told i grew up in her shopping old. so for me it was easy to b. i was a born like house, a little barbara lusty and not upkept. you need the division to be the hope it got

for football players focused on national team. thing is i'm a fan of them they made for me that limitation. it's can always come from people. i saw people from for calling me the office in fargo. so it's on the line with when i watch the games, i always look sort of ahead. the counselors, i want to turn to the head start program. yeah. i lose, which was in my in my been defined when i cut and ration along. national football players was in the, the national teams. i've been proud of myself because i worked so hard to get to this level. this is a call it a wallet. for example, some figures and i got an id played together here in my shop, getting parties versa. captain littleton, easier player and something as a light finish time for most of the players because i'm national team and you know, most of them out of my friend do something funny

little nivia. you know and, and, you know, people like like missing with the 12 and good moment when they announce got out house the work of 2022. i wasn't helping one his head and he was excited to think. yeah. yeah. we want to want to the ball got together. not whatever, whatever. i want to watch him play, think about national, did this kid go was and he's in lesson, i think it's crazy. you want the next work up is work up a country. it's make you feel proud, even me. i live here in carpart when you see how cut out of dipping, get ready for the work of welcome everyone to come pick that up. if something good, you know, you feel like you proud of this country and you, proud like out of country, gonna hospital work out on the player to live with our national team. i can tell

you that i handled of course, and put the work on site spain costa rica about to kick off. i wonder what the players haircuts would be like in that much love to keep an eye out for that. now deborah, i'm gonna ask you 1st and we see yet another upsets. i hope? no, i say i'm going to go with a 21 for spain there. it's a very interesting thing under construction young sir and, but they have to learn abilities in the box. so i'll go with to one same question that you are sure. he's wanting this one. it's a 11 for me. i'm just going to be very controversial. they're editing on the fence . i. wow. like as i this is wild cop is suddenly sprung quite a few surprises i fall so i wouldn't be surprised if we have another incredible results talk about later because yeah, this does seem to be the welcome shocks so far. thank you to both of you. i will look forward, see what i'm picking that. spank austria game with you both

a little bit. lisa, i shouldn't debit. thank you. now. i thought 2022 has delivered another memorable upsets japan that coming from behind to beat germany to one at the stadium whom i thought of the hair giving his side. they perfect and start to the grief they do. now we will have much, much more in our next wildcat, special at $1830.00 at the empty we will let you know what happened in the spain costa rica much. we're all of the guy watch that one out. so i join us that football. mm mm.
