they are making history as they go here in russia. adam wilde has this report. this is a new england, a new generation unburdened by disappointment. the pride and passion remain now to see how much further that could take them. but again sweden first, a moment stay calm, composed, both sides, slow, trading early blows that really look like landing. this was harry kane's early opening. this is england, and they have more than just one harry. it is headed from him. harry maguire got his head into it. if one harry does not get you, the other one well. a memorable first international goal for harry maguire. having found a way to the

swedish defence, and here they were keen to find another before half—time. sterling's chance a moments hesitation, and it was gone. still, on thisjourney, throughout the england team, heroes are emerging. goalkeeperjordan pickford is one of those, saving the header and even‘s lead. as he stepped up, others would step forward. england inspired. this is the stuff of dreams run the three lions!‘ inspired. this is the stuff of dreams run the three lions! a 2-0 lead ina dreams run the three lions! a 2-0 lead in a world cup quarterfinal, only one made you want helping to protect that. is another remarkable saved by pickford. but the nerves we re saved by pickford. but the nerves were temporary. england deserve this. it was football journey may have been long but this team are getting closer. adam wilde, bbc news. jordan pickford there. just one of the stars in england that is

emerging throughout their travels through russia. they now return here to moscow for the semifinal next wednesday night. let's cross to samara. damn, are we seeing something very special here from england? i have been covering england? i have been covering england for quite some time and you get conditioned as a supporter and a journalist to the disappointment and underachievement. it is only four yea rs underachievement. it is only four years ago that england crashed out of the brazil 2014 world cup in five days flat. two years ago, euro 2016 when they are humiliated by iceland. but only 18 months or so since gareth southgate took a job on full time. it almost felt like they had nowhere else to turn what the debacle of the sacking. it is therefore truly extraordinary to consider, almost surreal, that england were in the last four of the world cup, with a genuine chance of making their first world cup final in more than half a century. in truth, had they lost early on today,

here in samara, it would felt as if they had artie done enough. in quarterfinals, represent respectability. getting beyond there has proven far beyond them for many yea rs, has proven far beyond them for many years, not for 28 years, has proven far beyond them for many years, not for28 years, had has proven far beyond them for many years, not for 28 years, had they done so. do not only in the last few days it over that jinx done so. do not only in the last few days it over thatjinx around penalty shoot outs but it can indeed be possible to get past quarterfinals as an extraordinary achievement. it is still a very young group of players. very few of them were born the last time england made a world cup semifinal back in 1990. here is what the manager gareth southgate had to say after the match. we knew we would have the majority of the ball, it was just weather— beaten we could majority of the ball, it was just weather—beaten we could break majority of the ball, it was just weather— beaten we could break them down and identify a few areas but we might do that and we got the goals for both of them. set plays, but again because we are getting into good areas of the pitch, and they we re really well good areas of the pitch, and they

were really well organised team, they made life tough and years they have underestimated them, and our spirit was as good as theirs and our quality was bit better. he has spoken at length about how he knew he was going to get the call when the man was sacked. he has been at the man was sacked. he has been at the heart of what has emerged out of saint george's part, with the age groups, the under 21, saint george's part, with the age groups, the under21, he saint george's part, with the age groups, the under 21, he has been pa rt groups, the under 21, he has been part of what they called that england dna, said he knows these players inside and out and it is just worked so beautifully, hasn't it? it has but it still comes as a surprise as it comes to other age group teams. winning their respective tournaments, there was the sense that the saint george's project and that the na system you refer to there where all these different age groups are being asked to play in a certain way, from a

core coaching manual was beginning to bear fruit. the feeling was it would come too soon, this world cup, for this current crop of players. this team do not have the individual talents or the big—name high—profile iconic stars perhaps that the golden generation enjoyed a few years ago, but date have gone beyond what the golden generation managed and have proved that you do not have to have those big—name stars, many unity and togetherness and hard work and better preparedness is what crucial and what it would have lacked in re ce nt and what it would have lacked in recent years. now they have a genuine chance of going even further. after that very impressive display. they never seemed in any trouble today, the fellow pentagon to another gear. who is to say they cannot overcome croatia or russia who as you say are leading. a good game there, but whoever emerges as the winner, england will not fear. and then they will play france or

belgium, and they will not be favourites against either of those. you have to acknowledge they have benefited england for being the easiest side of the draw. giants like germany and spain, and england have ta ken full like germany and spain, and england have taken full advantage of that. what they have achieved not just today but in the last two days, is truly amazing and who is to say they cannot go all the way and get into the final and perhaps pull off what would have seemed just a short time ago a truly extraordinary results and actually went the whole world cup. our sports editor in samara where england beat sweden in two weeks the semifinal here will stop next wednesday, dan just jinxed weeks the semifinal here will stop next wednesday, dan justjinxed the host because they have equalised, for croatia in the match. let's get some more reaction now from the england players. let's hearfrom the two harries. the one harry who leads, and the other scored his first goalfor his

leads, and the other scored his first goal for his country. so much preparation for this game. a quick recovery, from the second round, so i thought it was fantastic today. a different game. it was different to what we have faced so far and the crushes in the box and we are buzzing. the set piece is legal once again. harry maguire, first goal for england and that makes you only the fourth player to score their first goal for england. in a knockout game in the world cup. what a way to start. you cannot compare that. that is the main thing. that what we set out to do. tell me about the performance. when you are out there, notjust winning but performance. when you are out there, not just winning but dominating sweden. we felt we could dominate the ball today. a bit sloppy towards the ball today. a bit sloppy towards the end of the second half, it was a bit too open for our liking, but we knew what would work and what would hurt them today and we do set plays

was a think and a little box cross as well. this is the history maker. now you have scored 11 goals. how many goals and would have scored in a world cup. you know what they're going to be staying at home? yes we know. there are still some big games ahead. but we're feeling good. we're feeling confident. today was great, we looked composed, we looked like we looked composed, we looked like we controlled the game and so yeah we controlled the game and so yeah we just have to go again. we are enjoying and i know the fans are enjoying and i know the fans are enjoying it and the fans back home i'm sure are enjoying it. wejust have to keep doing what we're doing and make the country route.|j have to keep doing what we're doing and make the country route. i am sure to see that home will be mayhem. the crowds as you say are loving it. you have friends and family enjoying the small. a week from tomorrow is the world cup final. it coming home, right? fingers crossed. we will see. he was the other goal—scorer. his prize for

getting england and he had a big pete said that he carried onto the bus as he was leaving the stadium. let's hear from the bus as he was leaving the stadium. let's hearfrom the man. bus as he was leaving the stadium. let's hear from the man. it was a great oedema for the team. and to the fans at home, they have been supporting us and leading us and like i say it was eight good performance for the team. it is always nice to score especially on occasions like this. i do get the go in on occasion like this is unbelievable. it was a real craft out there. we kept playing the way we wanted to play and how we can play and did not concede a lot of chances. it was imported to what we stuck to what we were doing and waited for the opportunity. do not forget. you can go to the bbc sport website for more reaction from the england camp as they head back to their training england camp as they head back to theirtraining camp england camp as they head back to their training camp now. who are they going to be facing? we thought it would be russia. they started

like a it would be russia. they started likea train it would be russia. they started like a train against croatia down there, and they are now up to four goals. a wonderfully worked open from the host, finding the top left—hand corner. croatia are at sixes and sevens. they have pulled themselves back into it. it is scored the equaliser with a stooping header. it is one all there. just a bridging half—time in the game. we will have the full line—up for the semifinal in the next hour or so. we will have an update on that match when we return here. but let's had to wimbledon now. the middle saturday, plenty of drama, that holly hamilton can tell us all about. there is always drama. a little different today. football has made a bit ofan different today. football has made a bit of an impact. it is not often

you see that many football shirts, scattered across this today and early on we had a nice rendition of football is coming home. you do not see that everyday. but the fans here are looking for a double celebration. the british number one kyle edmonds is in action right now. he is facing the three—time wimbledon champion novac djokovic, and they have been watching the action. kyle edmonds came out to play. centre court moved the football score. and now spectators here watched a british tennis player inspired by his occasion. edmonds at the top of the screen on his weight to the first set against novak djokovic. the man who has won wimbledon three times seemed at a loss for ideas, but he recomposed himself, reached a better level. to

win the second set 6—3, and troubling signs for edmonds at the start of the third set. now he was making mistakes. broken, listen to novac djokovic. from rage to delays, djokovic it out every second. he took too long, earned a time violation will stop djokovic was losing the crowd. but he was winning the match. he went on to win the set. we can go live to centre court right now to get the latest action from there. we are into the fourth set. you can keep up—to—date with all the latest action there on the red button. celebrations continue.

you can hear all the noise from centre court here all backing number one. someone who will not be celebrating is the world number one simona halep. she became the latest big—name to fall. now we only have one top ten seed in the women's draw here at wimbledon, which is just quite remarkable. early on today, the french open champion was knocked out in the third round and another wimbledon shock exit. she fought back after trailing 5—2 in the final set but she wrote in the night game to stay alive in the decider. stated another match point on her way to victory. she is of course the world number 48 but she said she really was spurred on by the crowd here in london. the first time i got number one it is amazing for me to be there and to fight against nerves. 0n the

first, i was there but i was a little bit tired and i was trying too much. it is a little bit hard to control on the balance but i am happy that i dated for the second set and happy that i dated for the second setand i'm happy that i dated for the second set and i'm getting through, 5—3, two down, it was a lot of support from outside, pushing me and keep fighting. thank you so much. no problems for men's second seed — rafael nadal though — the two time wimbledon champion is into the last 16 after a comfortable victory over australia's alex de minaur. still looking very comfortable. he maintains his number one ranking. i enjoyed by mark. figure for joining us. let's talk about kyle edmonds first. a lot of people are

supporting him. he is looking very goodin supporting him. he is looking very good in the first set, possibly slipping. what do you think about his performance. it was a great start to the mets. coming up big and using his weapon and novak djokovic is aware that this could be a huge moment for someone is aware that this could be a huge moment for someone like kyle edmund putt career who is trying to elevate himself as a true contender to the, and possibly pushing into the top ten, but djokovic is a former wimbledon champion and he is trying to find, slowly finding a footing in the match and two sets to one, and pretty close in the third so an even keel in the fourth set. it really is. djokovic, he is somebody who likes to have the home court on his side, doesn't he? he is not going to get that here. he does. the beauty for novak djokovic is before the match started, they were in the same

locker room, it was a lot of focus on the football match ball for him, and that would have been showing some calm rider he and probably joked a little bit before walking onto the court but novak djokovic so professional, trying to get back to that top spot number one position and it has been a tough year. he is and it has been a tough year. he is a fighter. he is a warrior. i think the more that he can get through matches, if he does get through and gets kyle and the crowd, he is going to get a lot of supporters behind him and the confidence should start to lose out of djokovic side of the court heading into week number two. is remarkable and currently 4—3,. had to say a great fight back for kyle edmund. he has got to try and draw on the home court advantage and england got it done today so maybe kyle edmund can as well. can you imagine the celebrations. a double celebration. the roof might be

shaking if kyle edmund can push this magic device that. thank you so much for joining magic device that. thank you so much forjoining us. it has been a pleasure. can you actually believe it? i do not know what this tiny village of wimbledon will do if they have all of that excitement here today. but arrested today's news, let's head over to lizzie. lewis hamilton won the battle for pole for tomorrow's british grand prix — snatching the top spot from his title rival sebastian vettel by a fraction of a second. hamilton will start the race just one point behind vettel in the drivers' championship. azi varni was watching the action at silverstone. there is no escape from the football even from formula 1. but some eyes are on russia. these fans have already been treated to a record performance. lewis hamilton becoming the first driver looked to claim a sixth pole position at british grand prix. it was one of his hardest

fault polls. sebastian was fastest, badly have pain in the net today. he may well become one for hamilton tomorrow. he could not match the pace, hamiltonjust tomorrow. he could not match the pace, hamilton just too far off to catch. but he did set the time to beat and it looked to be enough for a rare farrari will stop but hamilton saved his best for last. snatching a top spot byjust 400th ofa snatching a top spot byjust 400th of a second and you could see just how much it took out of him. of a second and you could see just how much it took out of himlj of a second and you could see just how much it took out of him. i gave it everything i could and it was so ha rd it everything i could and it was so hard and so close between these, and i was just hard and so close between these, and i wasjust spring hard and so close between these, and i was just spring academic for you guys. i am so grateful for the sport because without you i would not be able to do it. we are looking to turn that weichert pole to the six when. the tour de france got underway

today from the island of noirmoutier in the west of the country — but le grand depart didn't go well for defending champion — chris froome. the briton is going for a record equalling 5th victory in the tour — but ended the first stage almost a minute behind after crashing shortly before the finish line. ben croucher reports. this was meant to be a genteel start, treated to the customary coastline, countryside and chateaus and the lukewarm reception for chris froome. he should not have been troubled by the flat first stage but after four hours of calm, ten minutes of crashes. froome avoided the first but looked to the left. he soon found himself heading cross—country. seldom the fastest route as he was tipped from the tarmac. as he tried to limit his grass stained pains, rivals had his hopes butchered. ahead of them, the unsentimental sprinters pushed

on and in a week of disappointment for columbia, fernando competing in the race for the first time gave them reason to smile. behind grimaces and what might have been, as froome trailed home nearly a minute down. it is always the case of the tour but this year more than most, it is an uphill task for froome. ben croucher, bbc news. some sad news from the world of horse racing today. the retired flat trainer john dunlop has died at the age of 78. in a career spanning nearly half a century, dunlop trained more than 3 and a half thousand winners including, the derby twice, first with shirley heights and then erhaab and in total, dunlop saddled ten british classic winners. his legacy continues with his sons ed and harry who are also trainers. england's women's cricketers have thrashed new zealand by 142 runs to win their opening one—day international. choosing to bat at headingly — england captain heather knight and amyjones both made half centuries to help them reach 290 for 5, their highest one day score against the kiwis. in reply new zealand started well making 70 without loss but 4 wickets for just

5 runs lead to a collapse from which they never recovered. bowled out for 148. england now lead 1 nil in the best of 3 series. the next game is in derby on tuesday. and finally some netball news this evening. wasps beat loughborough for the second year in a row to take the superleague title with a 55—51 victory. wasps were leading by four—goals at half—time and despite the scores staying level with 10 minutes to play, they maintained their composure to take the narrow win. head coach tamsin greenway has now won four consecutive superleague titles as a player—coach, with both surrey storm and wasps. so that's all the rest of the sport, let's go back to 0llie for more reaction to england's world cup quarter—final win against sweden. takeit take it away. thank you. we do not know if we're going to get a party here tonight in moscow because it is 1-0 here tonight in moscow because it is 1—0 between the hosts russia and croatia. they are playing each other
