manager admits there is only a 2% chance of success but at least the game plan is clear. the only advantage of our situation is that we have not much choice. we have of course got to go for it and to attack and go forward with determination and flow and try to score goals. if they are playing for pride, i think they arsenal fans will be looking closely at the players. yes arsene wenger denied there was a bust up with alexis sanchez but surely he was cutting off his nose to spite his face leaving him out against liverpool earlier, no smoke without a fire? even the club captain admitted the atmosphere at the moment between the players is tense. he did spend a large part of that press conference having to deny rumours of a bust up, but sanchez himself has put a quote on his instagram page that said, the
6:46 pm
true warriorfights, on his instagram page that said, the true warrior fights, not because he hates the ones in front of him but because he loves those behind him. let us go gunners, the only failure is not trying. the undisputed fact is not trying. the undisputed fact is that sanchez scores goals, 17 in the late, 26 league goals, league games he has been involved in, he has helped create 26 goals and the noise you might be able to hear behind me is the we want arsene wenger out campaign. they have marched here demanding that he does not sign that two year deal and that is on the table. at the moment, the situation is that they need to fight tonight, bayern munich are in great form and they need to fight and the captain has been talking about how the contract yet fans like that back on board. that promises to be a lively night. and real madrid take a 3—1 advantage into their tie
6:47 pm
against napoli tonight. zlatan ibrahimovich claimed that bournemouth‘s tyrone mings jumped into his elbow over the weekend but manchester united's top scorer has accepted an fa charge of violent conduct and will be banned for three matches, starting with monday's fa cup quarter—final at chelsea. mings is appealing against a charge of stamping on ibrahimovic a couple of minutes earlier at old trafford. he faced a longer suspension. we understand that craig shakespeare will stay in charge of leicester until at least the end of the season. the interim manager has won both his matches since the champions sacked claudio ranieri at the end of last month. shakespeare has never managed full—time before and was brought to the club by ranier‘s predecessor nigel pearson. other potential candidates to replace ranieri had included the former england manager roy hodgson. england women face germany tonight in theirfinal match of the she believes cup — and it's a tournament they could win if the result of the us / france match goes their way. from washington, here's seth bennett.
6:48 pm
germany have been a powerhouse in women's football for some time but the european and olympic champions are facing an england side who are high on confidence following their victory over the usa on saturday night. the result we got in american two nights ago, it feels like a springboard to allow us to get to the level we want to get to. we want to be the best team in the world. those are the standards we are judging ourselves by and to do that we need to win big games are big tournaments. our next task is to beat germany. victory over germany would leave england in with a chance of winning the cup but it is by no means a foregone conclusion. if they we re means a foregone conclusion. if they were two, it was certainly show how far they have come in recent years. looking at the teams that are here, that would mean a lot to us, to say that would mean a lot to us, to say
6:49 pm
that we won a tournament that involved the germans, the french and the usa would mean so much. it is a friendly tournament, but to win a tournament that only involve those teams would be huge for us. the equation remains relatively simple, england have to win and then hope that the usa beat france by the same 01’ that the usa beat france by the same ora that the usa beat france by the same or a smaller margin and then they ta ke or a smaller margin and then they take on the silverware. whatever happens, this tournament has shown that england will be a force to be reckoned with, the euros later this summer. rower katherine grainger was made a dame by the queen this morning in recognition of her outstanding career. she became britain's most decorated female olympic athlete during last year's rio games after winning five olympic medals over five consecutive games. to me it is important. it is for my services to sport and also charity
6:50 pm
which is very important to me. it still ta kes which is very important to me. it still takes a bit of getting used to. iam still takes a bit of getting used to. i am used to aiming for medals in trying to achieve the titles in rowing and this is one, you do not even dream of. although it is thinking and now that it has happened, it will still take a while to really bed in. congratulations to dame catherine granger. team news from the emirates, alexis sanchez, he starts for arsenal and mesut ozil is on the bench as they attempt to score at least four goals against bayern munich. that's all from sportsday. there'll be more sport here on bbc news throughout the evening. facebook has been criticised after a bbc investigation felt it was still failing to remove sexualised images of children. after a series of sexually suggestive pictures were reported, more than 80% of them still remained online. the nspcc
6:51 pm
described the response of facebook as appalling but the network site says it takes the matter seriously and is continuing to improve its system for removing such content. joining me now isjim gamble. he is a child detection and social media adviser. thank you forjoining us. is its uprising to you that facebook are in this predicament, haven't they over the past few years made effo rts they over the past few years made efforts to deal with this situation? they have made radical improvements over the last decade, i have been a critic of facebook and will continue to criticise the more i feel it is appropriate, but i think, having made some enquiries before coming to do this interview tonight, that a lot of context is being last year. facebook have 1.9 billion active monthly users, so it is very difficult to manage an moderate that type of level of interaction. what i
6:52 pm
know is that of the image is reported to facebook, one was actually a child exploitation image and that is one too many and that one image should have been identified by the algorithms within their system or by the foot of dna they have introduced so it could be taken down they have introduced so it could be ta ken down immediately. they have introduced so it could be taken down immediately. the other images, while inappropriate and shocking when you look at them in context, they are more difficult to deal with and i will tell you why. your journalist had to deal with and i will tell you why. yourjournalist had to infiltrate closed groups, pretend to be a child to get in there and those images are not of themselves in decent, they will have comments alongside them delivered by predators that create an abuse of context. the first thing you want to do in that incident is reported this to the police because by facebook simply blocking them which they should do when they see the context, but by doing that, they go off and come back on again and there is a real issue here. did the bbc, when they infiltrated these
6:53 pm
groups, where men were clearly coming together with a sexual interest in children, putting images up interest in children, putting images up and making inappropriate comments, did they report them? if you walked into a shopping centre today in london or any other city and saw a group of men and a coffee shopin and saw a group of men and a coffee shop in placing a child or being inappropriate about a child, you would not go to the manager of a coffee shop, you will go to the police. this is about stepping back, recognising of course facebook needs to continue to improve, but so do the police. but then the last ten days, the government cannot get a taxi from one of their officers in the houses of parliament to sign off and an actor bill that has been on the table for two years. police are two few police, we need to do something that involves everyone. the images that the bbc, that are involved in the story were sexually
6:54 pm
suggestive pictures and comments. you are saying that sexually suggestive and some lewd comments does not necessarily amount to the kind of thing that facebook should be taking down straightaway? they should be taking it down, i'm not saying they should not, but what i am saying is that those pictures are put up in close to grips by people and when they are put up as part of the1.9 and when they are put up as part of the 1.9 billion monthly active users, we need to identify and locate the people that hold them to account. there is a dual process here. facebook still explain how it works. i've make reports to facebook all the time on behalf of schools. an image ofa time on behalf of schools. an image of a child which is not indecent but
6:55 pm
it is reported as being inappropriate, the facebook algorithm will come back and say it does not reach our terms and conditions and you have the opportunity to reply to a human being, there is a text box you can fill in. once you explain the contest, in my experience, that image has been removed. there are a number of issues and we need to make sure that parents understand, yes go online and report, facebook is not going to disappear, and i believe it is the case that facebook reported the one image to the organisation because it had been shared as an image. i will have to cut in. thank you for your perspective and your analysis of the situation. it is much appreciated. we are going to quickly go back to the lords because the government has suffered a second defeat on the brexit bill in the lords. peers backed an amendment to provide a meaningful vote on the final deal. our correspondent is at westminster. we have just had a reaction from david davis. he said he is disappointed that the house of lords has chosen to make further changes to the bill and he says it is clear that some of the lords would seek to frustrate the process
6:56 pm
of triggering article 50 and leaving and he says it is the intention of the government to make sure that does not happen and they will try and overturn the amendments in the house of commons. i am joined now by lord lamont to give us his take. quite a defeat? i am disappointed but i expect it will be overturned in the house of commons. i think it was an unnecessary amendment that has been carried because the prime minister has given an assurance which i totally accept and i think parliament ought to accept, but parliament ought to accept, but parliament will have a say and a vote in both houses at the end of these negotiations. i cannot really see what the amendment was about. i think also the amendment was illustrated by some of the people who spoke, it
6:57 pm
was technically defective in those ways. is it your suspicion that this is also that parliament at the end of the process can somehow try and stop the uk leaving the eu? that was denied by a lord. various people who supported his amendment talked about how public opinion could change and parliament could reflect that. i think that is the wrong approach. nothing is forever but the british people have voted to come out and we have to implement that and make the best of it and i am sure we can make a good job of it but we want to get on with it. why shouldn't parliament have a say? a lot of the debate we have a say? a lot of the debate we have heard is that parliament should have sovereignty back, what is wrong with giving them a say on this issue? of course parliament should have a say, the government said parliament would have a say, it would have a vote at
6:58 pm
the end of the day. the vote will essentially be whether to accept a deal if there is one or twojoint the wto. there cannot be a vote to remain in the eu. that would be wrong, that will be putting parliament in opposition to the referendum. you talk about the sovereignty of parliament, we need to remember that by holding a referendum we had ceded a degree of sovereignty to the british people. thank you. after tonight, this bill will go back to the commons where the government has made it clear, they will try to overturn these amendments. thank you for that. time for a look at the weather now. a speu for a look at the weather now. a spell of rain for us all overnight. it is moving into the west of the uk where we have seen patchy rain but it is about to turn heavier through northern ireland and eventually through wales and the west of england and scotland. there will be snow. the breeze picks up, temperatures not going down as far as last night. cardiff and plymouth, still around ten or 11 degrees. tomorrow will be windy in scotland especially the north. gales and plenty of showers. sunny spells in northern ireland. cloud, occasional
6:59 pm
outbreaks of rain, especially focused in the north—west of wales and south of england. temperatures in two double figures. in the sunshine, that will feel pleasant and some more sunny spells for us on thursday. although it is still miles, it will be much more cloudy. i will have more in half an hour. hello and welcome to 100 days. russian links, wireta ps. now leaks from the cia. us intelligence is firmly under the spotlight. today wikileaks publishes thousands of unverified documents that apparently expose how the cia hacks smart phones and televisions. on this data breach and the president's claim that his phones were tapped, we'll speak to the former head of the cia, michael hayden. republicans reveal their plan for american health care, but conservative critics just say it's "obamacare—lite. " the accidental face of protest against president trump. we speak to the woman behind the icon. the expression itself of the photo
