bayern munich‘s head coach carlo ancelotti says he expects english premier league clubs to perform much better in the champions league this season. last year only leicester city made the quarter—finals but ancelotti believes there's not much between the top clubs in europe now. to think that there is not a lot of difference. the last period in champions league, the premier league tea m champions league, the premier league team had big problems, but they did that this year. they have a really good team in champions league, chelsea, tottenham, manchester united, manchester city, and so on. and so i think the champions league, with these teams will be more competitive this year. staying with football, there's a been shock at the women's european championships

in the netherlands — traditional tournament powerhouses norway are out of the competition. the two—time winners, who came runners up in the last edition, in 2013, losing theirfinal group game to denmark i—o. the winning goal coming from montpellier midfielder katrina veje after just five minutes. an incredibly important strike for the danes as it means they qualify in second from group a with two wins and a defeat. hosts the netherlands have continued their 100% record at the tournament after seeing off belgium 2—1. a deflected shot, from barcelona's lieke martens, in the 74th minute helping the oranje towards the knockout stages. the 2009 semi—finalists looking strong in their own backyard. so let's just quickly show you how group a looks after the final round of matches. the netherlannds go through as top of the group, while denmarks win in the all scandinavian clash sees them through to the quarter finals. —— the quarter—finals. desperately disappointing day

for norway, they exit the competition with the dreaded triple doughnut of zero wins, zero goals and zero points. big fall from grace for the two time winners. —— big fall from grace for the two—time winners. jordan spieth has risen to number two in the new world golf rankings after his dramatic win in the open at royal birkdale. if the american can now win next month's us pga championship, he will become, at 2a, the youngest player to win a career grand slam of all four majors. however, spieth wasted little time in celebrating with the famous claretjug with his fellow player and friend justin thomas posting this snapchat video. how does it taste? fantastic. brilliant stuff and jordan spieth. —— brilliant stuff from jordan spieth.

tasty stuff there from the texan. the accolades have been pouring in for the open champion since he becamejust the 12th player in history to win three of golf‘s four majors. golfing legend gary player says he believesjordan spieth may be the best putter he's ever seen. player's views chime with those of eight—time major winner tom watson who believes one of spieth‘s secrets to his success is that he plays with both his heart and his head. at 13, he looks like he is going to go down, maybe one, two, three shots. after losing a lead like that, very rarely does anybody come back. but then he made a sensational bogey, and then it was off to the races. he is a great shot at 1a, 15 goes for eagle, 16, 17, nothing but net for about eight or ten feet but although he paid to his strengths, the most important thing is right here, right here. and everybody understands that. to do it he has

done, and for tom, who is a eight—time champion, you have to haveit eight—time champion, you have to have it here, but you have to have it here. and not many people are gifted. it is a divine gift. i believe. we'll have a different way of looking at. but you know what? golf, and we are of hearing commentators, parents, and friends, isa my commentators, parents, and friends, is a my son, this professional, this is a my son, this professional, this isa is a my son, this professional, this is a professional for the future. —— superstar for the future. but i think this man might be the greatest putter ihat ever seen. —— that i have. following england's victory in the women's cricket world cup where they saw off india in an enthralling final, captain heather knight says she would be in favour of a new women's league in india, perhaps to mirror the men's ipl. knight also wants more international fixtures, be they test cricket, or one day games.

i guess it is getting more girls involved in the game and having that bigger talent pool in this country and in all the other countries. if that means an ipl, then potentially that means an ipl, then potentially that will help growth in india. but i would like to play more international cricket and have more competitive series, and that is how we develop and grow as players and keep women's cricket in the spotlight. but as they get more people playing the game and improve the grassroots and get more money into the game, which is important to bring people through the system. swimming, now. katinka hosszu defended her women's 200m individual medley title in front of her home crowd at the world aquatics championships in budapest. hosszu retained the gold medal with japan's yui 0hashi almost a second behind in silver, and madisyn cox of the united states completing the podium. elsewhere britain's adam peaty defended his 100m breastroke title. the olympic champion set a new world championship record which means the 22—year—old now holds the top 10 times in the world for the 100m breaststroke. 0bviously, two months after rio, it

temperatures — 2a, maybe 25 degrees. certainly a little bit less cool than it was on monday, across the south—east and east anglia, because there will be more sunshine. through north wales, northern england, it should be fine, some sunny spells. clouding over a little bit in northern ireland later in the day and maybe a shower for scotland. most places dry, if a little on the chilly side, close to the east coast, 1a degrees in aberdeen. most places will have a fine evening but things then begin to change. into the early hours of wednesday, we'll see quite a band of rain working in across northern ireland, south—west scotland, wales and the south—west, courtesy of an area of low pressure. quite a deep low, actually — this is not a usual weather chart for this point in july. closely squeezed isobars, that means some fairly strong winds and weatherfronts, bringing a band of rain eastwards, across the country. especially across the northern half of the british isles, this rain will be quite heavy. it will go on for quite a few hours, as well. not as much rain getting across into the south—east. and then for the south—west, wales and northern ireland,

later in the day, things will brighten up with some spells of sunshine. those blustery winds making it feel cool. 18—21 degrees. and although the weather front responsible for the main body of the rain will clear away to the east, this area of low pressure is still close by on thursday and that means very strong winds, especially up to the north—west. there'll be some heavy showers here, as well. drier, brighter weather towards the south—east. just 15 degrees in glasgow. maybe 22 in london. we stick with that blustery theme as we head to the end of the week. some spells of sunshine on friday. some showers as well. highs of 17—22 degrees. as we head towards the end of the week, a cooler, fresherfeel. yes, there'll be some spells of sunshine but some heavy blustery showers as well. welcome to bbc news, broadcasting to viewers in north america and around the globe. my name is mike embley. our top stories: president trump's son—in—lanared kushner says he has
