figures in the south. we start off fresh tomorrow, sunny and then we are in for a stunning day with clear blue skies. just a bit of cloud across northern parts of scotland but from the lowlands southwards, the weather is looking mostly sunny. relatively modest temperatures, 17 in belfast, just around 22 in london. but beyond that, the weekend and into next week looks like those temperatures are shooting up. perhaps even an under estimate of those temperatures — they could be getting up to 30 degrees. this is bbc news. our latest headlines: the government sets out the plans for more than 3 million eu citizens if they want to remain here after brexit. the home secretary says it will be a simple process. the health secretary, jeremy hunt, has said a "blame culture" in the nhs has to change to help uncover scandals such as the deaths at gosport war memorial hospital. that was revealed in a report yesterday. us first lady melania trump visits

a child migrant detention centre on the us—mexico border, and says she's there to learn. the bank of england holds interest rates, as the chancellor prepares to make his annual mansion house speech on the state of the uk economy. in a moment, it will be time for sportsday, but first a look at what else is coming up this evening on bbc news. at 7pm on beyond 100 days, we'll have the latest from washington as president trump vows to remain strong on immigration and the first lady visits a child migrant detention centre on the us—mexico border. at 8:45pm, we'll bring you live coverage of the chancellor's annual mansion house speech on the state of the uk economy, where philip hammond is expected to give more details on where the extra £20 billion funding for the nhs will come from. he will be speaking after the

6:33 pm
at the bbc sport centre. also coming up on the programme: bat dominates ball again, as england start chasing australia's 310 in the latest 0di at durham. and no playing second fiddle for stradivarius, as he wins the ascot gold cup. plenty to pack in tonight, but we'll start with events it's day eight, and we are bracing for ourselves for the big match, argentina against croatia. we'll get to that later. we've had to macro results, back—to—back matches in group c. france and denmark with the chance to book a place in the last
6:34 pm
16 at the world cup with a game to spare. denmark didn't manage it but france did, beating carew1—0. —— peru. in terms of volume and mass, peru are unmissable but, when they get the ball around here, things become distinctly missable. the latest peruvians are turned down the chance ofa peruvians are turned down the chance of a world cup goal, costing them in their first match against denmark, and france are more ruthless. dawdle for a moment and before you know it you find. kylian mbappe the youngest frenchman to score. peru couldn't afford to hang around, it nearly worked for pedro keno, but nearly was nowhere. peru were playing to stay in their first world cup for 36 yea rs, stay in their first world cup for 36 years, a stay in their first world cup for 36 yea rs, a lost stay in their first world cup for 36 years, a lost child, committing numbers, but without the goal they need it. could only see glimpses of
6:35 pm
a force that france be. a qualified tea m a force that france be. a qualified team with qualified brains, two, two wins without being too good. still room for improvement for the french. just one game left for the peruvians before they go home. after the match in ekaterinburg, five live's conor mcnamara spoke to dion dublin. we've now seen france playing twice and they've won both games. do you feel they are improving? they were better tonight. they looked more balanced. i think grisman enjoyed it, paul pogba controlled the game, can take —— conte was all over the place. peru fans will know they've got one game to go, but a dead rubber. tens of thousands of the reviews here, massively outnumbering the french in the stadium. your heart goes out to those fans. what a
6:36 pm
story, some of them got here, selling cars, houses, all kinds of things just to selling cars, houses, all kinds of thingsjust to get selling cars, houses, all kinds of things just to get here. it's the world cup and they wanted to support their nation but unfortunately their nation is going no further, but they will have a party in that last game. peru cannot progress in this tournament. france are through to the last 16 with a game to spare. 0ur favourite double act at the world cup. 0nto today's other match in samara, where denmark met australia in group c, and it provided yet another controversial var moment in this world cup, as alex gulrajani reports. denmark could have got through to the last 16. australia are still alive, denmark with a bit of work to do. another va our penalty. the dream for all in russia, but nobody expects these two to battle it out at the business end of the world cup. but they'll have fun along the way. kristian ericsson getting the danes in full voice early. the technique, the skill. it
6:37 pm
wouldn't last too long. first, there was nothing to see here but, with video systems on offer, another look. yussuf poulsen's had touched the ball, penalty. schmeichel doing his best to intimidate mileyjedinak but it didn't work. they looked more aggressive from then on, with denmarkjust aggressive from then on, with denmark just about holding aggressive from then on, with denmarkjust about holding on. a late flurry from australia at the danes rocking but they couldn't find a way through. edward apiece for both from qualifications with the knockout stage still a possibility. —— a point apiece. this is how group c looks. there is one more round of matches to play. france cannot be caught. they face denmark in their last match. australia will hope that france win that, and then they would overtake denmark into second spot with a win against peru, who are already out. that will be a gripping final round
6:38 pm
of matches, and they are all played at exactly the same time. let's get the latest from the england team camp. a couple of days after that stirring injury time when against tunisia, six days between matches before they go off to panama. that much is on sunday. david 0rnstein is at the england team camp. it should be all calm, with that time between matches, gareth southgate's dislocated shoulder, and we'll get onto the leaked team sheet, but the fa also having to deal with this investigation after the offensive behaviour after what seems to be some of their fans around that tunisia game. a video emerged in the aftermath of that game, allegedly emanating from a volgograd bar. that was the host city of that match. it was of a
6:39 pm
small number of england supporters making a fancy chance, idlib salutes and anti—semitic wording. —— nazi salutes. the fa released a statement from a spokesperson today strongly condemning the actions of the people in these videos, describing it as disgraceful conduct that doesn't represent the values of the majority of england supporters supporting the tea m of england supporters supporting the team in russia. they also said they and the uk police are investigating. of course, the in russia, orfans can be identified by fan id, needed to enter the country, so they will be hoping to get to the bottom of it and identify these individuals, and ensure they're not repeats. there may be many more fans coming to the tournament if england progress past the group stage, so that is one to watch. today, england were back in training after a day off, gareth southgate sporting a sling on his
6:40 pm
right arm yesterday after dislocating his shoulder out on a run on these shores. he didn't have that sling on in training today, and as 22 of 23 men were put through their paces, dele alli missing, but their paces, dele alli missing, but the biggest story to come from training was perhaps a potentially lea ked tea m training was perhaps a potentially leaked team sheet, and image emerging steve holland, the assistant coach, holding what looked like a team line—up, and that line—up appears not to have deli 0llie line—up appears not to have deli ollie -- line—up appears not to have deli 0llie —— dele alli on it, but also no raheem sterling. that could be an interesting one to watch. we asked trent alexander—arnold about this potential leak in the news conference, and this is what he said. we haven't directly been told of who is starting and not, so i think all of the positions are still up for grabs. until the manager names the team, it doesn't matter what came out or anything like that, because i know the lads don't focus on that
6:41 pm
until it's come out of the manager's mouth. they are the only words that matter to us at this moment in time. we are trying not to get caught up in articles and everything like that. we are trying to focus on ourselves. until the manager names 18, everybody is fighting for their position. —— names the team. -- names the team. one amusing story emerged in the last 2a hours or so, a video of some england players with james corden. this has been a very relaxed camp. we have talked a lot about that. let's look at the video of what they got up to with the television presenter. what do you want us to do? i've got an idea. bibilov america, this is the england football team. —— people of america. was that your american
6:42 pm
accent? we need a new idea. raise your hand in the air. i'm not doing that. put it in the air. i don't wa nt that. put it in the air. i don't want to. i feel stupid. you are putting the liberty and lady liberty. move your hand in the air. i'm not doing this. dele your third favourite british harry. we are forgetting harry potter. is he real? either way, more popular than you. you are number four. standing in front of the country, asking it to root for england. wow! i got goose bumps. actual chills. that's it. let it out. all right. hey. wait, what
6:43 pm
was that? guys! guys? two more training sessions for england before they fly for that crucial game against panama on sunday. win it and they should, or will have a good chance, make it through to the last 16, depending on what happens with belgium against tunisia on the day before. so far, so good for england here on and off the pitch, apart from a couple of injury concerns, among them the manager. thank you, david. let's reflect on a match we saw yesterday. iran just missing out, losing to spain. they still have a chance of going through at this world cup. they were backed by tens of thousands of fans, and a big percentage of those were women. they have been banned from attending sporting events including football
6:44 pm
for almost a0 years on the grounds of public decency, but they were here in their numbers, fantastic to see them cheering on iran in russia. the bbc‘s ashley—john baptiste joined an iranian female fan in the build—up to last night's match. these women from iran are about to do something they are forbidden from doing back home, going inside a stadium to watch some football. uranium women are not allowed in stadiums and —— iranian women are not allowed in stadiums we can here. these women have come to russia to watch iran played in the world cup and they invited us to follow them as they got ready for the match. it's great, my first time seeing my national team, an amazing feeling, i can't describe it. did you ever tried watching match back home? can't describe it. did you ever tried watching match back home ?|j didn't tried watching match back home?” didn't but i know a lot of my friends did, and one of my friends went in front of the stadium and tried to go in, dressing up as a
6:45 pm
man. one of the guards noticed and was like, oh, my god, you can't beat it, and they threw her out of the stadium filled does any part of you think, i wish i could do this back home? definitely, i wish i could. think, i wish i could do this back home? definitely, iwish i could. i hope that iran one day hosts a world cup, one day. would you go? if i could, yeah. you are going to be in that stadium with thousands of iranians, men and women. how do you feel? it feels great that finally i can be with my family, my boyfriend, my friends, all of them there, cheering the same team, our team. thousands of fans from iran have gathered outside the stadium, ready to see the national team play. high energy, people are excited. i've
6:46 pm
spoken to dozens of women who have come from iran, and they are expected, absolutely delighted to be able to go to a stadium for the first time ever and make some noise for their team. the match isjust finished and, although iran lost, the celebrations amongst the iranian fa ns the celebrations amongst the iranian fans haven't died down. it was amazing. i was screaming more than the men i think sometimes. i didn't really see any difference between the women. everybody was cheering at the women. everybody was cheering at the same time, together, as one voice. we'll see how they get on against the portuguese in their final group match. we've been reporting about sepp blatter being in town, the former fifa president, currently banned for six years for giving a disloyal payment to michel platini and also some corruption charges that were floating around on his watch. he is here on vladimir putin's invitation, watching the
6:47 pm
portuguese in morocco, and he's been speaking to our correspondent, richard conway, about watching the world cup in a different capacity. gianni infantino is the new president of fifa, and we had good contact at the beginning, but i have to say that it is his thing now that he should not be better because i am here for two matches. i'm not banned from going to matches of travelling. i think he will digest it. you make a response last night to a member of the fifa council. is that a breach of your suspension, by meeting with him and talking to him? no, ijust said hello to him. we were not speaking about the organisation. i met him for two minutes. it's all a bit awkward.
6:48 pm
sepp blatter will be in st petersburg tomorrow watching brazil drew their opening match against switzerland and they will need to improve. the manager has been confident he's gone early with his team. yes, that is confidence. he named his team today, unchanged. that is despite the fact that england in the —— brazil were underwhelming in their opening match against switzerland, underwhelming performance by name are, —— neymar, and there have been some concerns about him. he was the most fouled player in that match in the last 20 yea rs of player in that match in the last 20 years of world cup history. he limped out of training on tuesday after 15 minutes. today, i saw him training and he looked fully fit to me, but the brazilian coach says he needs five games to be fully fit because he got an injury in paris st germain in february, so still not
6:49 pm
really the neymar that we see week m, really the neymar that we see week in, week out for paris st germain, but it became for costa rica, under pressure to win. let's get the brazilian perspective from one of the press pack. it isa it is a key match, winning against costa rica, playing at a good level, winning by not playing badly, like portugal did yesterday, but doing a good match, feeling more confident for the match against serbia, and going through the competition. it's really important. it's a match where we probably see where brazil can go in this world cup. costa rica isn't the rival to do a match like this but psychologically and emotionally, it's an important match. serbia topping the group at the moment, so brazil need to win against costa rica. 0ne moment, so brazil need to win against costa rica. one other bit of news from brazil involves manchester united, because the midfielder fred
6:50 pm
has signed for shakhtar donetsk. he is worth £a7 million. talking to journalists, they described him as the future of brazilian footballer, so the future of brazilian footballer, so very exciting for manchester united fans. no pressure on his shoulders then! that's a head of the brazil costa rica match. coming up, we'll look ahead to argentina against croatia, kicking off in 20 minutes. now over to sarah mulkerrins at the bbc sport centre. let's begin then at the cricket. england are taking on australia in the ath one—day international at chester—le—street, where the tourists have set england a target of 311 for victory. a century from opener aaron finch got australia off to a good start. shaun marsh also made his way to three figures, reaching that milestone with this six, but he was out soon after,
6:51 pm
thanks to some brilliant team work from the england fielders — jason roy and craig 0verton combining on the boundary to dismiss marsh for 101. in reply, england have made an excellent start. they are 112 without loss. british number one kyle edmund has been knocked out in the second round at queens. he was beaten by nick kyrgios. the australian, who earlier knocked out andy murray, was in inspired form with shots like this one. that's nice. a closely—fought contest, with both the first two sets won on tie—breaks, but it was krygios who eventually came through to win in three sets. in birmingham, wimbledon champion garbine muguruza was knocked after a 6—2, 6—a defeat by czech barbora strycova. the top seed got back into the match by breaking to lead a—2 in the second set, but she lost the next four games. frankie dettori won his sixth gold cup at royal ascot,
6:52 pm
after stradivarius claimed victory today. the 7—a shot, trained byjohn gosden, was pushed all the way in the closing stages but held on for a thrilling win. the colt stepping up to two and a half miles for the first time in his career. he likes the meeting — stradivarius won the queen's vase last year. and for dettori, this was his 60th winner at royal ascot. confirmation of the starting prices there. stradavarius the 7—a joint favourite, winning from vazirabad at 9—2, with torcedor third at 1a—1. well, it may have taken ten years, but this man here — danny cipriani — will make his first england start in a decade, after being named at fly—half for the third test against south africa. the springboks have already secured the series and, with england now on five successive test defeats, the pressure is mounting on coach eddiejones. 0ur reporter, chris jones, is in cape town. this is an amazing sporting story,
6:53 pm
once hailed as the golden boy of english rugby, many thought that danny cipriani would have 100 england caps by now, but he's making his fifth start on saturday, and while much of that is his own doing the fact he is here is the reward for a huge amount of perseverance. as the fly half reflects, it's been quite somejourney. as the fly half reflects, it's been quite some journey. everything i've done and the mistakes i've made and the lessons i've tried to learn, i've tried to become a better person and to learn from them. i continue to do so and hopefully i'll have a good message for young sportsmen when my time is up. right now, i'm very excited to go out and play for england. the whole reason i've never played rugby was to represent my country and i couldn't be more proud. do you regret those mistakes? no, because i wouldn't be here right now. right now, the opportunity is
6:54 pm
ahead of me and it'sjust now. right now, the opportunity is ahead of me and it's just about staying completely calm and being that guy on the field, because when you are on an international stage and things go at 100 mph, i want to be someone that people can turn to, so be someone that people can turn to, so that's my focus. eddie jones has made other changes, mako vunipola not there, joe marler starting at loosehead prop. no billy vunipola because of a fractured arm, so nathan hughes gets the nod at 08. red shield ruled through illness. chris robshaw, the veteran, returning on the blindside flank with a point to prove that this may bea with a point to prove that this may be a dead rubber at newlands, with the springboks already wrapping up the springboks already wrapping up the series, but its message for england, who have lost five test matches in a row. the pressure is building on the camp and head coach jones and a win would go a long way to shut out that noise. scotland and ireland also have tests this weekend. full details on the website. back to 0lly foster in moscow.
6:55 pm
we area we are a couple of minutes away from argentina grimmest croatia —— against croatia. both sets of fans have really been enjoying themselves in the build—up to kick—off, mingling there. well, bar takings, in the build—up to kick—off, mingling there. well, bartakings, i reckon, are up all across russia. a massive night for argentina. they could only draw 1—1 against iceland on saturday. messi has a terrible recent record from the penalty spot, after having a penalty saved against iceland in that h after having a penalty saved against iceland in that 1—1 draw. hernan crespo has been with the bbc‘s mark chapman, and he says that messi is still the man. if you were in this argentina team and playing against croatia and argentina got a penalty... yes. would you try and take the ball off
6:56 pm
messi? is our leader. must take responsibility. it is position. it's messi. he doesn't take the responsibility, who else? it's like this. but nothing changed for me about messi. we will see if he changes his tune after the match, which is about to get under way. the match is on bbc one. these are live pictures. incredible, messi shaking hands with his opposite numbers. luka modric, the croatian captain. a reminder of the headlines, australia still alive in group c after drawing against denmark, the french through to the last 16, argentina with just one point in group g. my word, they have to win. if they don't get a win, their world cup future is out of their hands. much more later on
6:57 pm
bbc news but, for now, from all of us bbc news but, for now, from all of us in moscow and the bbc sports centre, it's goodbye for now. it has been a beautiful day today across the uk for most of us and actually not that hot at all and relatively cool for the time of year. temperatures were around 20 degrees at most in some areas. you can see the motion of the cloud, it has been coming in from the north. this is fresh, atlantic air over us right now and with the clearing skies tonight it's also going to turn pretty chilly. so even some of the major cities across northern parts of england made it down to 6 degrees, just about double figures in the south. we start off fresh tomorrow, sunny and then we are in for a stunning day with clear blue skies. just a bit of cloud across northern parts of scotland but from the lowlands southwards, the weather is looking mostly sunny. relatively modest temperatures, 17 in belfast, just
6:58 pm
around 22 in london. but beyond that, the weekend and into next week looks like those temperatures are shooting up. perhaps even an under estimate of those temperatures — they could be getting up to 30 degrees. you're watching beyond 100 days. the president backs down on separating immigrant families but not on his hardline approach. in the past hour he says that democrats have let millions of children into the us illegally. mr trump has changed his policy but he's not happy about it — complaining how much his administration has to pay to look after those children. for the softer white house image look to the first lady — melania trump makes a surprise visit to the texas border. they are here without their families. i want to thank you for your hard work, your compassion and your hard work, your compassion and your hard work, your compassion and your kindness in these difficult times. europeans living in
