this is set to vote in an election that many fear may signal the end of democracy. live the head to put this north african nation to noisiest parliamentary election out there. ah, this is al jazeera, ah, hello there, i'm miss darcy. attain this is the news. our live from our headquarters here and her coming up in the next 60 minutes. political chaos in peru, a state of emergency is in full effect, but that's not stopping protesters from venting their anger. rallying for the mirror, the stumble, he calls his jail sentence, a punishment for his success. oh,

how do i get unprecedented strike action across the u. k. up to a 100000 nurses. walk off the job in a fight for better pay and working conditions. and a mesmerizing match up the world cup final that sets a bit, frances killian and bumping against argentina, that legal, messy, ah, now authorities and brew are struggling to contain protests that have raged for ever. we can seen at least 8 people killed. roads like the major pan american highway and eco, have been blocked as date of emergency has been declared and the army is being deployed. some demonstrators want the new president in about want a to resign and for elections to be held. they also want to formally that pedro castillo released will let speech john holman. he joins us now live from eco in southern proof. john, when we last spoke, you said it was a very volatile situation. i see the right police are still there. what's going on

now? i yes, slightly less volatile. now the people that wanted to keep this block a going have largely left. now you can just see the place on either side the road and you probably see the traffic, the trucks don't go past. we spoke to a couple of the truck has before they are quite eagerly swept by us. and they said that they'd been waiting 5 and 4 days to get through here. so it's sort of, this is one of the most simple and most ways in the country. it was powerless. it's flowing again, that's going to help food of medicine and things like that to get to the capital. now for the people here. so there was a lady at the who just drew for us to sign saying with not terrorist with victims. she's been interviewed now. and i think a lot of people here are very unhappy still, even though they cleared the highway with the situation. this saga began last week when x president pedro castillo, was removed, and then detained, as he tried to head towards the mexican embassy. now he was about to be in peace

for the 3rd time. he had a lot of corruption charged against him. this is someone there in less than a year and a half of being an offensive cycle through about 80 ministers. and there was a lot of accusations of elicit enrichment on his part for the people around him. but he was also a rule pharma. he was an indigenous man, and i think a lot of people here take that side of it. they see this as a congress that a lot of people in the countries, but a very low approval rating. who sees him every time and then go rid of him in the end. so they're very angry about that and about where it's more than anything. they will fresh elections in the country. and the current president who's proposing elections of the month of december 2023 to basically bring the up to bright now, and try and get some sort of fresh start in the country. this obviously isn't

something that just about pay their own custody is not just about now is about the fact that in the last 5 years, the countries had 6 presidents. it's about the fact that the political class here is really distrusted and people here who are poor rather than rich. feel that they just left out. and there's a power sensor in lima that control everything townhome and they're on the ground for us in southern through with all the nations. thanks so much john. opposition? parties and takia are rallying in support of the narrow vist on bull after court sentenced him to jail. insulting public officials. the trial focused on remarks that m. m. m, alu made during the mayoral race in 2019. now if the appeals court upholds the verdict, it would prevent him from holding public office for the duration of the 2 year, 7 month sentence. and my mother is seen as a potential challenger to president rich typo on an elections next year. well, cynical theory has more from that rally and a stumble. thousands of people gathered in front of his stumble,

metropolitan municipality to show support for sambal may reg cremmit mum older. and it is a protest against the court decision, the which wants the jail is stumbled mayor and impose a political been now what is makes for a crown. mo, mo law is a matter of concern. and now a way for a court of appeals is open for him. at the next step, is there even the court of appeals or pulls the verdict, the current verdict. then another way is open for him until the supreme court decides in, in the opposite way, until the final decision by the supreme court extra mo, mo lou has the legal right to stay. as the mayor of is stumble and the political bad on him will not be imposed, but many people he are here who are mostly the main opposition party members. and people who voted for him are saying that the yesterday's court decision against a criminal moley is totally unlawful. while tarika goes, there is a professor of political science and international relations at stumble, iden university. he says the mares imprisonment could affect the results of the

general election. it's for sure that this particular event will have some political consequences regarding the upcoming residential and parliamentary elections. the opposition people are simply saying that the links within the government than the judiciary has been well established. so it would have been impossible for the judiciary to take that kind of a very important decision, you know, very important and why them are right now. but we also know that the government authority issue, how to cook night, the fact that this kind of an event will have some repercussions in the upcoming election. so my own opinion is that the government has not been directly involved in such kind of they have because the final outcome will be very much in, in the interests. it's for sure because what happened in the past that prison out on was mayor been stumble. he was put into prison just for the fact that he. busy plans for example, so this particular event had boosted his credentials to become. busy president

prime minister, unpleasant of the country. so the sampson off might even might, it was in the context of a mayor of the stumble coming. i know. so it would have been quite impossible to think that the government took a very important action in pushing the court members to take such kind of decision . but we all know that it is inevitable that this particular event will have some credit card consequences. i'm leaving on and tens of thousands of nurses in the u. k. on strike. and if 1st ever national walk out nurses with the national health service at want a 19 percent pay rises, they face a cost of living crisis due to inflation. but the u. k. government says it can only afford 4.3 percent. turn her reports, math not says it's minus 8 degrees on the picket line. outside oxford warn ford hospital. the nurses here undeterred this passing cars honk their

support. they're joining colleagues across england, wales and northern ireland. in the 1st strikes of their kind in the history of the national health service. a service that many say is on the brink of collapse, or we've lost thousands of thousands and thousands of nurses during the pandemic, but pre pandemic compost pandemic. actually, the nursing profession has been chronically affected by our government and things that have happened in the world for a really, really long time. we met one of the nurses, rachel ambrose at home, the day before the strike full time heating is no longer affordable. so when the children are out at school, it's freezing. she's been a nurse for 20 years and for much of that time, rachel says her salary has been stagnant or fallen in real terms, as the cost of living, particularly this year has gone up. well sir, from the summer we were average in about a $160.00 pound a month,

and that was already an increase from that a price in clinic 110th. and yeah, it's shut up. it's nearly $400.00 pound. now, prices just keep going up and we're just expected to sell away and it's, it's not physically possible. and so it's time that we took a stand. and yeah, well basically asking for what has been lost over the past. you know, 1015 years. and we just want a fair wage. sheena. when i ask in for tweaks, we're just asking and for a fair wage. so we can afford to continue working businesses back on the picket line. the nurses say they regret the effect strikes will have a non urgent patient care, but they say the effective staff shortages caused by those leaving the service is worse. this is are asking for 19 percent higher eyes or 5 percent above in place to meet say, say a 20 percent fall in real terms wages in recent years. it's

a negotiating position that the government so far isn't engaging with beyond around 4 percent currently on the table any more they say will have to be paid for in higher taxes. the support his groans, the day goes on. the nurses joined by representatives of other unions. it's not only health care that's on the pressure, but railways airport, the border force, bus drivers, and more the government facing a winter wave of disruption. right across the public sector. joe, to hold al jazeera oxford. the, well, it's shaping up as a battle of the super stuff, little messy and killing him. buffy in the football, wild cup final defending champions. france booked their place against argentina with a 2 nails defeats as laura and did a dream run to the atlas line. she became the 1st african and 1st arab team to make

that final but it sets up a powerhouse fine on sunday between 2 and the games. grace is having an annex here. brian. she's in cherokee here in the next answer. very funny looking tree that behind you this certainly is actually the area that i met is named off to the rather funny little trick behind me. it's actually called the economy both tree of dreams con revolving the south american football federation. i'll step aside a little bit so you can see the tree of dreams and it's sort of tell some of the stories or it's based around the stories of the people who helped the school take root in south america. so on the other side, unfortunately, can't say the messiah, but there are sort of engraved also, graphs of people like a lay of ronald ano of diego, met at all. and i may see, of course,

the global supervisor who is going to be playing on sunday in that final hoping actually like diego, mad at on a 1996 who took the agent and he and take the will tap titled that to may see will be playing his last world cup game and bringing his team to victory. actually one of the other things you can do inside this area is not only learn a bit more about the south american football federation, but company it's very popular with bands. i hope it's going to be okay that i sneak in here, but you can come in and take a selfie with diego metadata himself. now, i might just keep out of this gentleman's way, but so do i go about it on of course, holding the trophy that he helped to bring his team to a 1996. if i was to send it to him, you'd see that i'm a little bit taller than him, but then i'm a little bit taller than most if you poke around the back this way. we can also see paley, we are coming to him by his back, famous number 10, of course. sorry. so we're going to camera around and front. you can see a very popular guy pillay,

the 82 year old brazilian who has been of ill health of light and his family have been trying to sort of deny reports that he was on. ready of life treatment is deducted to provide an update just the other day saying that actually his health is improving. he's not yet ready to be released from hospital. but both of those gentlemen considered to be some of the best football players ever asked if you want . you can come down, have a healthy organizer to tell me that a 100000 people have come through this pavilion since the world cup began on november 20th. just a couple more days to go until, of course, that big final match up between france. imagine, tina, i have to say the agent, anyone, fans have been louder on the streets of doha, throughout the tournament, and i have to see how sundays, not sunday nights match go. but when i've been speaking to people latin about today, it's a very equal split. and i think that's what the bookies are saying. this game is anyone's game. we will have to say on sunday who takes out the final re run and the lexia brian there for us. and in cherub indoor lexie,

looking forward to seeing your string of se, thanks so much. or meanwhile, a football fan from the u. s. says that he has received incredible treatment for free after a serious accident while visiting castle for the wild cup. david canal was an intensive care for several days before being asked back to health at a hospital and aha between gaten b reports. even in 9 days after arriving in doha from maryland in the us football fan, david canal was in a quote by accident. he fractured 12 ribs and damaged his lungs. for after he was discharged from hospital, could tori authorities moved him and his family to this 5 bedroom villa at a recovery center opened, especially for the world cup. we have food breakfast, watching taylor transportation, where we want to, we have service who helps us out here in the house with everything we need and

anything we need, we just ask for and they're happy to to provide anything for us. so since we arrived here, we haven't had to spend anything the family have been given a bicycle and an i pad for 9 year old ica as well as cable television to watch the matches. a doctor and a nurse visit david every day to dress his wounds and prescribe pain medication. this recovery center where david irina and i could have been staying for the past 12 days as a total of 19 villas, a swimming pool and the gym. families can stay here for free, for as long as they need to recover. the family said they chose to speak out because they're grateful for the assistance they received. and we feel a little bit like to literally get pers, i mean, you don't see this kind of help on the years. and i mean, we're really glad that she was able to be in contact with me,

the ministry and everything that they did for us us now be more than enough. the family say they plan to stay and do her until the end of the tournament. to enjoy the last few days of what the world cup hath to offer. victoria gate and be al jazeera doe ha. ah, i'm moving on and the mayor of separatist healthdesk and easton, ukraine says there's been the heaviest shelling in the city. the years. the pro russia administration says 40 rockets launched by ukrainian forces of hippa city. the mayor of car keys says that russia has launched more strives on energy facilities there. the attacks have left millions in ukraine without regular access to power water or heat while they face sub 0 temperatures. now, the international criminal court has upheld the conviction of a former uganda rebel commander. dominic on one had appealed against his 25 year

jail sentence for war crimes. last year, judges at the hague, found him guilty of $61.00 offences, including rape, murder, and sexual enslavement. over a 100000 people were killed by his rebel group. the alleret in northern uganda, and the early 2 thousands. while toby cabman, as a human rights lawyer, had guernica 37 chambers who specializes in war crimes and the international criminal court. he joins us now from london. toby, i want to stop by asking you about the kind of precedent, this kind of case and, and particularly today's judgment sets. and this was the unanimous decision. were you surprised by the strength of the opinion here? thank you. no, not really. so we know that there was a 25 year sentence for more than 60 separate balances and he was, he was convicted of a number of very serious allegations. obviously that had been said at argued

primarily that he was a, a child soldier. so i think his liability should have been excluded on that basis, but certainly it has come with a great price, even though the defense made 90 separate grounds of appeal. it was, it was going to be a very difficult case, challenging, but ultimately they didn't succeed. well, as you say, he was a child soldier himself. i believe he was abducted at the age of 9. so not only a patricia, but as his defense team has been arguing or so a victim that was obviously one of the grounds for appeal. does that set any precedent going forward? i think it really does so that one of the, one of the issues that was argue not only the fact that he was a child soldier from a doctor, the age of 9, his parents were killed. and so that, that had an impact on him, but what they had ruled effectively that as an adult, he had actively participated in that taken a very important role in the ha,

fifties, and waltz that made mitigated the sentence. it didn't exclude his liability. and so for that reason, i think that will sort of question for how these types of cases are brought in the future. well, of the 5 senior le commanders and diced by the i c. c, i believe only on when and el rey lead address of coney is still alive or at least believe to be now only has said himself that he believes he's been treated as a scapegoat. because coney is nowhere to be found. does a legal community believe there's any truth that the i c c that was a court, but also as under a lot of political pressure, what does it mean? i see is a huge amount of pressure to, to, to deliver on monday in any event, whether whether they will be able to, whether there's any substance in the argument that he was used escape get. i don't think there's any real substance in the audience festival. you've got to look a while he was convicted of crimes he was involved in and of course,

as we've seen as, as recently as just the last week the cc prosecutor carrying car is trying to convince the judges to confirm the charges against county. and in his absence because they can't locate him, but it is regrettable that they're at liberty, those to they can hold accountable for for what was a competitive balance of course and talking hundreds and thousands of lives here. but still uganda chose to pardon thousands of that are a soldiers. i'm curious about how you feel b. i see if you try to being viewed in uganda. i know only the thousands of victims specifically said they want justice, but there's also a conversation there around forgiveness rights and moving on. that has to be in any conflict at this time, the has to be more than just criminal justice. and, and obviously what we've seen just in the trial that we're more than 4000 victims, represented by counsel in those proceedings today, effectively had,

had an advocates sitting in acting for them. but of course, in any situation such as this, you have to come a time when you look at alternative mechanisms to, to provide an address to, to provide accountability, to provide reparations for the victims and criminal justice is not there and do that. so that's one of the things that you got into has grappled with over the last few years and will continue to jump to with toby catman. they're a human rights lawyer at guernica 37 chambers who specializes in war kinds on the i . c. c, always great. get your thoughts on out as they are, toby, thanks so much for joining us again. for us. now, it's the final day ever. you as africa summit in washington, dc. leaders have been gathering for once the biggest international meeting there since before the start of the coven 19 pandemic present biden has froze at the idea of the african union having

a permanent seat at the g. 20. he is also expected to announce more than $55000000000.00 an investment to the consummate for the next 3 years. and comes after growing concern about china and russia's influence in africa. or china is bracing for a surge and coven 19 infections after the government. there scaled back its strict measures. public fears are mounting of a large outbreak and that's undermining hopes of an economic recovery. richard kimber reports are from hong kong. there are a few signs of life at many shopping districts in the chinese capital fears of a looming cove at 19 outbreak. keeping many people off the streets, mister chin barely sees any customers at his tea shop these days, but he's holding out hope that business will bounce back. or you can do. the pandemic will eventually go away. it'll take some time, but i believe things will recover. step by step of my business will gradually improve the latest official economic data is less optimistic. for the 2nd

consecutive month, retail sales slumped almost 6 percent on last year. investment and industrial growth. both slowed in november and unemployment rose to the highest since may policymakers launching huge stimulus measures and pumping billions of dollars into the banking system. but analysts say it may take more than just money to spark and economic rebound. so there's a lot of fear in the country right now, so consumers, frankly, just are not willing to go outside to restaurants. a lot of parents are refusing to send their children to school because they're scared of the families catching cove it. so i think the economy is a very weak state, much weaker than most analysts realize. the sudden relaxation of long standing pandemic restrictions has seen some shoppers stockpiling at supermarkets and pharmacies. i know that i am very worried. the problem is i can't buy any medicine . now, what should i do if i get a fever?

it's too risky to go out. don't like the government is trying to reassure the public that everything is under control. it's boosting vaccine production, rolling out more booster shots for the elderly, and ordering hospitals to increase capacity as intensive care units. but international health experts say china is lack of exposure to the virus over the past 3 years. and it's low vaccination rate among seniors means there's a risk that around a 1000000 people could die. that the country rapidly transitions out of 0 cove. it's policy, which had kimber, al jazeera hong kong. now a teenager shot by police in greece has been buried in an emotional ceremony that brought out his entire room a community the shooting course days of riots and desolate nicky authorities and now investigating it as a potential racist killing. jon strapless has moved out from the northern port city and the family and friends of costas from gullies held him all night vigil around

his coffin. the combination of 3 days of grieving on the day of his funeral. his father spoke to him for the last time before he was carried out to awaiting hurst cost. us young wife and mother of their child, overcome with grief, continued to talk to him as relatives helped her to walk to her husband's funeral. this roma community is not only grieving for from ghoulish. there also shocked that he should have died shot by the police and fire police are looking. he was a really good kid. he would all sorts of jobs. he worked in scrap metal and building wise. he'd gone up to be a set night with his man. he wanted to listen to music in the car, but he was out of field. in the small hours of december 1st, 16 year old courses from goalies drove into this petrol station behind me. he drove to the pump nearest to the shop, put 20 years worth of fuel into his pick up truck and drove off without paying.

moments later, for policemen who had been sitting inside the shop, pursued him down the highway on their motor bikes. frankly strove at high speed, trying to get back to the safety of his rama community a fenced in area in the midst of the cellar nicki's industrial zone. but the pursuit ended on the steps of this hotel where franklin crashed his truck. he was taken to hospital with a bullet in the back of his brain and for a week he fought for life. the robber community has questions about when and why he was shot. then $39.00 about up on the bed. the roost i took doesn't take more than 5 minutes, and the police called in the incident after 25 minutes. what were they doing? they could have shot him in cold blood and needed to figure out the cover up. police say they shot him in self defense after he tried to ram their bikes. a story thrown into doubt by the fact that he was shot from behind. the roemer say it was a racist killing. that additional investigation underway and the police officer who

fired the fatal shot is in pre trial detention. but police killings of roma have gone unresolved before and few here have faith that this time will be different. i like element video scene. we want jaffer that if someone has done something, let them go to jail. now get out one day, but it's got you going to rise out of the earth and go back to his wife and child. jumps r o palace al jazeera fellow, need you. mostella head here on al jazeera, for a live to our castle, 2020, to welcome studio with ronald havoc where the countdown is on to sunday. the epic final between france and argentina. ah, hello the weather, sloshy set fare across the middle east. as we make our way towards the final of the

well cut, a fair bit of cloud a little further north, some bits and pieces of cloud and rain coming through here, but nothing too much to speak of here in the cancer. well, as you can see, 26 celsius in tow harbor over the next couple of days, it will be dry and flying plenty of sunshine, but the breeze will pick up for saturdays, i believe. 3rd place playoff is going to be a breezy one lifted dustin san certainly around during the course of the day. but again, it will be largely dry fitting little fresher than of late. there we go, a little more crowd to the north of that one or 2 showers just stop around the caucasus just notices system out towards southern parts over man and old. pro cyclic may bring a few showers into southern amount, but nothing too much to speak of. joseph, some showers there into iran, as we go on through the weekend of the chances, some showers to across the far north of morocco, northern areas of algeria just running along the coastal fringes, making the way to wash janasia coastal fringes of west africa. also seeing

hm. bye bye. really with destiny history in the in the $74.00, to set up a mouth watering clash with argentina in that bottle club teammate to clean and buy pipe a need. oh, let me going head to head the chart. feet on the policy continues. in dow, we'll catch up with, we saw football, it's been shut off that st. killed a football i when i go get his thoughts in just a moment. but let's look at the action of from an arch of french delights moroccan

heartbreak in the semi final, the historic, one of the 1st african team to reach the law school coming to an end in france, keeping alive the hopes of defending that title of morocco came into this match without conceding a goal from an opponent in the whole tournament, but frauds quickly by the breakthrough with tale hernandez, putting them i had just 5 minutes in the early as well cut. he follows else it's noisy that 58 or as a dino that he, that had a chuckle had a chance to level things up for morocco. but he got maurice was up to the task brought her account close again, just before half farm and in spectacular fashion. jawad l yeah mc audacious bicycle kick, hitting the post the 2nd half and just off the coming on as a substitute rando a call on monday. but france to up with his 1st international gul, gillilan baptized ron, creating the child's for make the game safe. that's why he said, frankly, i get the chance to become the 1st nation to defend that title. since for how you brazil, in ne, 60, to the new,

massive shift take on. i'm always so proud of me. a cheaper result like this. it was the last step we had to take to reach somebody's final that it wasn't easy, but with the right mix of quality and experience with our team spirit, we were able to dig deep when things got tough. and as a coach that gives me so much satisfaction and pride in the group of players we have out there. if it's not ready thinking about myself. but about the players. if also a good, you know, seen asa compete, we need to stop being regulars, that this competition so that we can put morocco on the world. footballing maps at the same level as brazil, france, or england. we need to come back every time and not have to wait every 20 years. we need to be regulars. and then in the future will be normal for team like morocco to reach the semi finals. yeah, this is a big step forward, i think psychologically does run for morocco will free a lot of african teams in free the minds of lots of young african sky and let them know they're capable of taking on present. got france and england. we too are capable of progressing in the world of football and couldn't,

but we can't rest on our laurels and they still work to do. this is just one competition that we need to stop being regulars, to show that this was no accident. vickers it by next year. ok, let's get the thought so laughable. alice father and i got one. i what do you think in terms of the morocco chain we just heard from a car. what do you think the future is for the flyers and their manager? the futures bright, although i don't see many of the more veteran players in this, maybe maybe you'll see just seen bono at 35 of be part of this national team of come next woke up psycho even if the work of if they do qualify for that north america 2026 or cup. you see players like i shove hockey me. he'll be part of that to your so see it again because it was one of the youngsters. one of the young, promising youngsters that was part of the nation didn't get much minutes, but 18. he's getting the experience yoseph a necessity will also get another opportunity. you see those players and amongst the other players that will be recruited, going into the future. that's very solid under the leadership of ali regarding so

when you see that starting to be constructed, it seems it's going to be promising. now the incoming generation will be very key to really build upon. i and he did the managers or the coach has been very, very impressive as mckinney has a great relationship with those plays and they'll be eager to keep that relationship going. yeah. and he was part of the reason why many of the players were able to come back, willing to come back and understanding the necessity, balance tactical stability with cultural understanding and in that's a very big key that's going on, not just a morocco, but a lot of other countries in african football that have been able to take that step forward or looking to take that step forward into being more competitive and work up morocco of undoubtedly be one of the story. so of the well, come along, thought lena messy, i'm how much is there run to the semi finals done for the case of getting more african spots in, in, in the woke up. it just fulfills potential for the time being. now, when it comes to, depending of if it's a 32 team or 48 team ah tournament, if it's

a 32 team tournament, you need to see more consistency from africa in general. not just one team may scarcely or a rarely getting into into a semi final position, but you need to see now in a 48 team, that's a different story because then you need to see more accessibility into it. hey you, you keep in mind there was no egypt, there was no nigeria though those types of countries that end up being protagonist on a consistent basis with some of the biggest stars in european football. yeah. and what are the challenges? i mean, your have champions like footballs, gonna resume very shortly. what are the chances that some of our moroccan teens are already in europe could be playing for one of those big champions excites under my bill prior to being the ones of your number about would probably be one of those players that you can say, hey, you know he could make that jump forward as a matter of fact, he's one of those players that many are looking for liverpool being one of them that's being near rumored that is now interested or in the radar. we need to apply a 2nd for sure. yeah, that's for sure. are. can we go moving on now? i'm a france president, napa and manuel macaroni. sorry, but your macro was at the stadium to see his teemer bait morocco and he'll be back

here in cats. are for the fire atlas i will earlier. he was in brussels for the e u summit, and he was asked about sundays batch lee and i'm with is a great video and he plays in various with i prefer him in thirty's and his national team. so we will do our best known. we have a lot of respectful for those is tim says, wonderful one, but i think the french team is, will preferred. we have some very experience and very young players, and i think the mix of both both is absolutely incredible. and them i'm very confident that his chemistry and i think this is a team with a lot of willingness generosity. and you will have 68000000 people making them and, and we, we, part of them are present back long. clearly a very confident in france could do the job on sunday. but what about their punters?

look at argentina, we've seen some of the squad training to daily, not certainly know messy though. what will be the key things. roger tina had of that much intensity and not letting up on we've seen argentina and an ascending curve in terms of their performance. we haven't seen that from france, so it's either france, this is the best good as it gets for france, or we're waiting to see the best of france in the final. that's the matter. they've been training for, for nearly 4 years. so that that's important. but also again, the midfield, how's the mid feel going to respond? how is the defensive structure of argentina going to be? is gonna backline a 5 back line of 4 to try and neutralize as best as possible. all the options that france does have a, there's a folder and my coasted attempts to shift livable into discussions is happening again. i, watching your augustine of early in lines. you live upon the way that they use this an emotional rollercoaster. you know that, that they're buzzing off the fans coming at the state as patty, no stains out. the thing is whitney. all run it riding on emotion. it can't crash very, very quickly. if things go away. and, and you ask me

a very similar ada liverpool to a but it did, you did mention about that the morocco sedation and it took very little time for, for the fans that can be neutralize. and in that particular matters, like a saloon being popped in. exactly and, and that. but despite that we saw morocco, they continue to fight. argentine has gone through adversity. argentine has gone through certain motion emotions that they've had to overcome in order to, to get to the stage. france really hasn't, although they have been tested. and if argentina starts looking at that match against england, that the match in nations league against that croatia, you will see that it is a team that can regulate but a team the can be beaten. we've been saying it, he's been saying it ever has been saying it's his last well cut. they're all messy . so i mean, so essentially sunday will be his last international match. will it, do you think that i have my doubts ability i she have my doubts as well. that's where you have to put that asterisk and saying it depends on him. i he can

b e where he would have to embark on another world cup a journey crossed in a transatlantic at starting in march. when work a qualifies for comma will begin again because he had a situation where he might announce his retirement. and then in a couple of years time come back because i mean, he didn't even start the end of 24. 20. i said after the defeat to france. yeah. but, but then you'd have to also start getting committed for cope. america. yeah. so it's just such a constant and compress calendar. once you get to pick is right spot if there is a right spot to pick. so that's just my opinion and in terms of him, i want you to make that decision. okay, one, thank you very much for now. the world cup in katha has brought together superstar playing in teams that will go down in sporting history, the world freestar football. as far as you know, started another side to the game, free start as of different nationalities, background and physical abilities. we've been performing mat states for union, for the union has both the

with the best footballers are intuitive, instinctive showing off skills honed on the streets and in school yard with that football. but it's also free style and pena doll technique played by one on one football jap. downer is a 2 time would pad a champion, but he says his journey wasn't always easy. year and a half ago, i had a collision in a full match, which actually, i mean, ruptured, blew up my liver. and so i was in the hospital for 30 days. i was in to coma is allowed to walk again, talk again and then came back from one another world championships. when i started, everything was an old school because there was no career impairment. it wasn't something you could aim towards. i feel like i called it alongside others who have called at the same time only a world champion could be able to put this path name are

a number hardy is the 1st female freestyle or in her need of iran. she is the 4 time freestyle champion, and she has now inspired a new generation of women. a, i have lots of things about increased by the biggest one for me is now going to either them into law and before mass of mail for and mail, mail football, player, and news from sure with an i p. different thing in iraq, i think alike is so much world top has been a performance of what ball added fine in the world. more it players and modern

state of the art stadium please. i'll put ball, bring that back to with be 6 because all you need, if you had the bottle and supplies, i even got that far. i think i'll just leave that to the professional, the blood jacking, huston performed all around the world. there is no bigger stage for football than the world cup thinking leave out there. i don't. okay, let's have a look at saturdays, a 3rd place, playoff match crash and morocco both need to pick themselves up to try and. and this tournament on a hi. some sorry, this match is more like a friendly, but there is a bronze medal at stake and the crash player. so i'm say they'll be taking the picture very seriously. if a pizza. so i think if you ask this question to the moroccan players, i don't think they will look at this match as a friendly. they're going to fight. they're fighting for their lives. because if you win a meddler to woke up,

you become an immortal hero in your country. that's the same thing. we're going to do. 8 of us from russia, understand that feeling of winning a medal at the world cup. and we have a lot of players who haven't experienced that and would love to do that because it's something that will stay with them for the rest of their life. friendly game is a very bad word. hardly it will be hard for these to in theory, it will be hard for these things to pick themselves out. but crash for one that have pedigree in this match, you know that they want to place before they want to do it again. crecia pedigree morocco have something to prove they, they don't want to. and this world cup saying, well, we got beat by france and that was it. they want to get back up themselves. yet to teams are extremely competitive. now it's also a reward for the players that haven't had many opportunities to be able to step in as well. but that being said, crecia want to end their legacy in a very positive manner. it's a tough question, tough cough stretching to out to but that's what we have. you hear me who do you think deserves it more? did you think deserve that bronze medal will be able have their different merits?

so i mean that, that ends up being, say, morocco, i guess, because the legacy are so slightly crisis because because the legacy there, but it would be quite, become a lot more rich to, you know, finish, finish on a high because, i mean, cause we've all enjoyed watching him in his time at robert trader and taught them before that. so i mean, for him to, to win a high profile match because you know ours, the well will be on a it will, it will be a fit again. wooden, it romantic, it will be a great way to andrew. yeah. i'd love to say that, that to say one more time. okay. moving on. thanks hon. very much for joining me. will be speaking to you in our late charges, but of course it's all about the build up to that huge grime. hi. on sunday, the climax of cuts off 2022. the world cup final, between the joints of well football, argentina and france course is going to take place in the sale of stadium on sunday . and yeah, those 2 are going to be great drink. they know massey kilogram bath. i will have more from here in our next woke up special about the $2130.00 g m fleet but,
