and novak djokovic has won his fourth wimbledon title, beating kevin anderson in straight sets on centre court. the us president has left the uk — following his four day visit in which he met the queen and the prime minister — before heading to his golf resort on the ayrshire coast amid tight security. on the runway at prestwick airport in glasgow, mr trump boarded air force one with his wife, melania — the plane took off around an hour ago. donald trump, is heading to finland for talks with the russian president, vladimir putin. mr trump says he's going into tomorrow's summit with "low expectations" but declined to reveal his goals for the meeting. during the president's visit to the uk — theresa may revealed that donald trump's advice

to her on brexit strategy was to sue the european union instead of negotiating with it. mrs may made the disclosure as she defended her chequers plan for a deal with the eu — it's been widely criticised by members of her own party. here's our political correspondent, nick eardley. teeing off at turnberry in ayrshire this morning, president trump catching a quick round of golf on the last day of his uk visit. it began with him warning a post—brexit trade deal could be off the table. but he then said a deal will absolutely be possible, and revealed he'd shared his own strategy with the pm. i gave her a suggestion, not advice. i wouldn't want to give her advice. i gave her a suggestion. i can fully understand why she thought it was a little bit tough. and, today, we found out what that suggestion was. he told me i should sue the eu! sue the eu?! sue the eu! not go into negotiations, sue them, actually... no, you know, we're going into negotiations with them. did you think about that

even for a second?! the pm is getting advice at home, too. some believe we should stay close to the eu. others, that we need a clean break. and ahead of key votes in parliament this week, she had this warning. some people are saying that they want to vote in the trade bill to keep us in the customs union. i say, that's not acceptable, that's not what the british people voted for. others are saying, well, perhaps we can not have the bill at all. that would be damaging to our no deal preparations. so, let'sjust keep our eyes on the prize here. the prize is delivering leaving the european union in a way that is in our national interest. at chequers, the prime minister's country retreat, the idea was to reach a plan the government could rally around. but it's left some conservatives very unhappy. they don't want to kill key brexit legislation this week, but... the government unfortunately believes that brexit is not a good thing in itself. it seems to think it has to be tempered with non—brexit. brexit is enormously positive,

a huge opportunity for the country, and i'm afraid the prime minister doesn't see that, and it's why i think she is a remainer who has remained a remainer. labour is warning it may not support the plan. the bottom line is, it is in a complete mess. and here we are just months away, weeks away, from trying to get some sort of deal, and it doesn't seem to be coalescing around anything whatsoever of any significance. the uk's brexit plan has often been hazy, at best. but as it becomes clearer, many questions remain. nick eardley, bbc news. before president trump left he spoke tojeff glor from us television network cbs. mr trump said he had shared some wise words with theresa may but he wouldn't dislcose what they were. well, i would rather have her till you that, jeff. i did have advice that maybe she did not take but maybe she will take it, something she can do if she wanted to. but it was strong advice and i think it probably would have worked. they're having a very hard time in terms of that separation

and we will see what happens but certainly it is advice that she may take down the line, i don't know, but i would rather have her tell you what that advice was. during his 2—day visit to the uk, president trump also met the queen and spoke highly of her majesty. i just thought it was a great meeting. those are very personal meetings and i guess from the etiquette standpoint, you are not supposed to be talking about it, but she is just a fantastic person. sharp, really brilliant in so many ways. she's done an incredible job representing her country. she loves her country so much, that was obvious to me, the one thing that was so obvious to me. she really is a very special woman, i really enjoyed it. president trump also desrcribed who he believes are the united states' biggest competitors. i think we have a lot of foes. i think the european union is a foe, what they do to us in trade. you would not think of the european union but they are a foe.

russia is a foe in certain respects. china is a foe, certainly economically but that does not mean they are bad. it does not mean anything, it means they are competitors and they want to do well and we want to do well. we are starting to do well. you see what is going on. we have the best employment numbers that we have ever had, black unemployment is the lowest is the lowest level in history. hispanic unemployment is the lowest level in history. women unemployment, lowest in 66 years. our numbers are great, our gdp numbers are far than what they thought. the mp robert courts has announced he is resigning as parliamentary private secretary in the foreign office — in protest at the prime minister's chequers proposals for brexit. the proposals would see the uk agreeing a "common rulebook" with the eu for trading in goods. but some tories are unhappy, saying it will leave the uk tied closely to eu rules and prevent it from striking its own trade deals. posting on twitter mr courts said he had taken

the ‘very difficult decision‘ to resign freom his unpaid role supporting ministers to allow him to express his discontent with the proposals in parlimentry votes tomorrow. police in wiltshire are continuing their search for evidence after the poisoning of a couple with the nerve agent novichok. dawn sturgess died after she and her partner charlie rowley were exposed to the chemical last month. detectives say more than 400 items have been recovered so far. our correspondent keith doyle has been at salisbury district hospital — and has this update. this is where charlie rowley is being treated. this is where charlie rowley is being treated. the hospital said there was no significant change in his condition, it was described as serious but stable. i have spoken to a member of his family this morning who said that they have spoken to charlie.

he is able to talk and he's obviously coming to terms with the death of his partner, dawn sturgess and all that entails. now, the police had been giving us details about the investigation, the scale of this investigation, which of course is now a murder investigation. they have described the search process in their words as one of the most complex and difficult that uk policing has ever faced. now, we do know that they found and recovered a bottle in amesbury at the home of charlie rowley on friday. they do believe that is the source of the nerve agent and that is obviously a huge boost to their investigation. but the searches are continuing. they've said that they have collected around 400 items. now, those items include swabs and sample and said that a significant number of these may be contaminated. that is obviously quite worrying. and they are saying that the searches that are going on at

various locations could go on for weeks and months, even. and these are very meticulous searches. the volunteer police and scientists that are taking part in the searches, they have to wear protective equipment that takes a0 minutes to put this equipment on. they're working with limited visibility. limited movement. in the searing heat, it can get up to a0 degrees inside these sterile tens that they are working in and of course they have to make sure there is no cross contamination and they have to make sure that they are protected as well. so then it takes another a0 minutes to take this protective equipment. so it is a huge, complex investigation. it is going to cover a wide area, it is covering a wide area, it is going to go on for some time and it is, as i say, a very, very complex investigation. keith doyle in salisbury. in the past hour, the england team have returned home afterfinishing fourth at the world cup in russia. gareth southgate‘s side arrived back at birmingham airport on a flight from st petersburg. their return was kept low key, and,

unlike the last time england reached the last four in 1990, there will not be an open—top bus parade. france are taking on croatia in the world cup final. france are the favourites, and they are currently 2—1 in the lead. let's go to paris, and hugh schofield is there for us now. we have seen some huge crowds out there on the streets of the capital. there must be a lot of excitement there at the moment? it is com pletely there at the moment? it is completely mad. we have had hours of this crowd behind us. it was going crazy before half—time with that last—minute goal, the penalty converted by antoine griezmann. it

was so converted by antoine griezmann. it was so crowded all i had was a 5 degrees angle but i could tell from the reaction of the crowd how it was going. he went mad with the first school. then there was the equaliser. and then cheating at the ends. the penalty was confirmed and converted and the place went crazy. we were bombarded by fire crackers and flying plastic bottles and glasses of beer. it is a very excitable but joys and glasses of beer. it is a very excitable butjoys and happy atmosphere here. what everyone hopes is that it is maintained for the next a0 minutes and france all other second world cup victory to celebrate. i have some people coming up celebrate. i have some people coming up here. the atmosphere is friendly and it will stay friendly. it will remain joys and it will stay friendly. it will remainjoys we and it will stay friendly. it will remain joys we can and it will stay friendly. it will remainjoys we can be and it will stay friendly. it will remain joys we can be sure, and it will stay friendly. it will remainjoys we can be sure, if and it will stay friendly. it will remain joys we can be sure, if they go ahead and when. a bit of free

palestine in there as well. it is clear that in france and england is, this contest has really engaged an entire nation there. people were rooting for england. we have just seen them returning to a somewhat low— key seen them returning to a somewhat low—key return back to english soil in birmingham this afternoon, just of the world cup final is under way. clearly this is something which has ca ptu red clearly this is something which has captured the nation, even if people do not count themselves football fans. the french are often accused of being fair weather football fans. when the team does badly, as it did in 2010 and so on, they do not support but this team has captured the imagination of the country in the imagination of the country in the last few weeks. it was not

particularly impressive in the qualifying rounds or in the early stages of the tournament but since argentina, things have changed immeasurably and the whole country is come behind the team. the fact that so many of the team are from high immigration areas and have expressed nothing but utter patriotism and frenchness, that has united the country behind them. that a lot of praise for didier deschamps, the trainer who has brought the team from the depths of 2010 up to this period now. the hope on the cusp of another world cup victory. by now, many thanks, enjoy the atmosphere. let us take you live to moscow where the matches continuing. you can see the scoreline is still 2—1 to france at

the moment. we're into the second half. you can watch all the action live or on bbc one. we will of course keep you up—to—date. novak djokovic has won his fourth wimbledon title in a straights—sets victory over kevin anderson. the serbian world number one won a close final set 7—6, after winning the first two sets 6—2 against the soutrh african. it's djokovic's first grand slam victory for more than two years. as france and croatia face off in the world cup final, another famous football team have been playing today — the senior team of the wild boars. theirjunior counterparts are still recovering in hospital after being trapped in a thai cave for more than two weeks. our correspondent howard johnson was there to see them play. we are here at a senior game

of the wild boar team. what we heard before the game was two of the players telling us they missed playing with the younger team—mates. they say normally they train with them every night with them every night after school and over the last two weeks they have missed their presence. we also heard earlier was from the ministry of public health, they said they had allowed the parents to tell their children inside the hospital beside the news of the death of the former navy seal diver. they offered condolences and thanks to him for what he did to rescue them from the cave. we also saw images of two of the boys crying, one holding up his gownto his eyes, wiping away tears. elsewhere we saw mural paintings

by artists who came together to put this large picture together. we saw images of the dead diver dominating the mural. there were also the two divers who find the boys. we also saw a proposed statue unveiled. it will be around 2.5 metres tall and will feature the diver, samarn poonan standing on a rock and underneath them are 13 wild boars, representing the boys he was trying to save. the boys are due to be discharged from hospital on thursday and we heard they would return home where they will spend time with friends and family recuperating after this ordeal. the headlines on bbc news: the us president, donald trump, has left the uk on air force one. he's on his way to meet the russian president in helsinki. the prime minister has revealed the advice she received from donald trump about brexit, saying the us president advised her to sue the european union. and these are the scenes in paris, as france lead croatia in the world cup final. let's get more now

on our main story. the prime minister has revealed that president trump told her she should sue the eu rather than negotiate over brexit. earlier, i spoke to takis tridimas, professor of eu law at king's college london, about whether theresa may has any grounds whatsoever to sue the eu on. it's not... it's not obvious, it's not easy to see how the united kingdom government would be able to sue the european union. we are in negotiations. these are matters for politics, it's not really a matter forjudicial dispute. now, the united kingdom is still a member of the european union. it has rights and obligations. so, if there was a suggestion that the european union has denied to the government a right or a power under eu law, then the government could sue.

so, for example, if the european union drives to regulate an area where it does not have any power to regulate, then the government could sue for that. but there is no suggestion, to my knowledge, that this has happened. so, as far as the negotiations are concerned, there is a duty to behave with good faith. but again, i don't think there is any suggestion that the eu, or the uk for that matter, has breached their duty. so, when president trump made this suggestion, what sort of legal case do you think he had in mind? it's not easy to see. i cannot really imagine any circumstances where it would be possible to bring a meaningful litigation against the european union. we don't yet have an agreement, so there is no suggestion that the eu has breached that agreement. a government of an eu state can sue the eu before

the european court ofjustice. i don't think it would be possible before any other international court, that would not be possible in law. so it's not easy to see what that possibility might be. just keeping you up—to—date with events just keeping you up—to—date with eve nts o n just keeping you up—to—date with events on the pitch for the world cup final. france have scored again, 110w cup final. france have scored again, now 3—1 up, thanks to a goal from paul pogba. the action continues live on bbc one. the action continues live on bbc one. a 28—year—old man has died and a 5a—year—old man has been seriously injured in a stabbing in birmingham.

the attack took place in yardley wood, in the south east of the city, in the early hours of sunday morning. west midlands police have said inquiries are ongoing, but that both men were known to each other and they are not seeking anyone else in relation to the incident. a british teenager who fell 70ft from a balcony in magaluf has died. thomas channon, who was 18 and from rhoose, near barry in glamorgan, is the third holidaymaker from the uk to die at the eden roc apartment complex this year. he was celebrating the end of his a—levels at the spanish party resort. the foreign office are supporting the family. the troubled train operator govia thameslink is introducing its third major timetable change in two months. passengers on the company's lines, which include thameslink and great northern, have suffered severe disruption after an overhaul of the schedule in may. a man has died following a collision with a lorry on the m6 near stafford.

it happened at around 12:30pm on the southbound side between junctions 1a and 13. police say the entire southbound carriageway is expected to remain closed for a number of hours as investigations continue. motorists are advised to check theirjourneys before they travel. one of the biggest car—buying groups in britain says more than half of its vehicles will be electric by 2025. the british vehicle rental and leasing association wants to increase its fleet of electric cars to 750,000, as our business correspondent, joe lynam, reports. noxious gases coming out of cars could soon be a thing of the past. now one of the biggest fleet—buyers in the uk says it's switching to low or zero—emission vehicles within seven years. the british vehicle rental and leasing association is responsible for one in every five vans as well as one in every eight cars on our roads.

and its members have pledged to turn most of their fleets into plug—in vehicles by 2025. a 15—fold increase in only seven years, from 50,000 to 720,000 vehicles. but it still needs government action. this is notjust about business investing. this is about the government helping these businesses to invest. we need support with infrastructure for electric vehicles. but most of all, we need support in terms of tax regime. the government said its road to zero strategy will help make sure the uk remained a world leader for investment in and uptake of zero—emission technologies. at the moment, there are just under 200,000 plug—in vehicles on uk roads. but as the taxes and charges mount on diesel vehicles, the number of plug—in cars is going to multiply rapidly in the coming years. joe lynam, bbc news. in the past hour, the england team have returned home after finishing fourth at the world cup in russia. gareth southgate's side arrived back

at birmingham airport on a flight from st petersburg. the last four in 1990 — there will not be an open—top bus parade. i think yesterday was a disappointment to end with the defeat but you have to put in the context of the tournament we have had. an incredible experience for everybody. we have learned a lot, we have learned as much from the defeat as the victories. the players have given everything they had. the best performance for 28 years so i am incredibly proud of what they have done. obviously you are disappointed but satisfied at achieving so much, how do you feel? it is a good

position to build from. we were aware of a number of landmarks and we wa nted aware of a number of landmarks and we wanted to get there. barriers we wa nted we wanted to get there. barriers we wanted to break through. it is a lwa ys wanted to break through. it is always better to look to build to improve from a position of reaching the last four. we know there's a lot of work to do. we also know we have brought a lot of happiness to everybody and that has been very special. no parade coming home, you will be a weird of the connection you have met with england fans back home, how important is that for you? it is huge. that is the biggest part of playing fewer national team, you represent the home nations. you want them to feel engaged and enjoy the experience and feel part of it. even 110w experience and feel part of it. even now we have been a long way away, we felt that from russia and the last few weeks. we have just got to continue to play the way we have,

carry out our ambassadorial part of oui’ carry out our ambassadorial part of ourjob the way they did in russia and continue to represent the country with trade. that was gareth southgate speaking a short time ago. meanwhile back in russia, france are 110w meanwhile back in russia, france are now a—1 up in the world cup final. those are scenes live in paris were huge crowds are out on the streets. the latest goal from kylian mbappe, putting france in a pretty confident for — one position in the second half of that world cup final, taking on croatia. there is about 20 minutes still to go. croatia are playing their first world cup final. france, the favourites at the outset of the match are now a—1 up. now, a group of six southern koalas

are being brought from australia to live at longleat safari park in wiltshire, making them the only ones of their kind in europe. the southern koalas are known for their thickerfur — handy for a british winter. laura foster reports. they are abandoning australia and moving to wiltshire. and when the five females and single male arrive, it will be the only place you can find southern koalas in the whole of europe and it's hoped, once this group settles into their new home in longleat, they will start to breed. it will be a very strict monitoring process of each individual koala and the koala as a group, so we can actually identify different behaviours and individualities and how it affects them. they are also being brought to the uk because wildlife experts want to raise awareness about the problems koalas are facing. although not classed as endangered, koalas are recognised as vulnerable. since the middle of the 19th century, millions have been

killed for theirfur, and more recently, large portions of their habitat have been destroyed to build houses and roads. wombats have been chosen to keep them company on theirjourney and they will end up here, at a new indoor and outdoor australia—inspired enclosure at longleat safari park. so, the koalas' new home isn't finished just yet. there are some eucalyptus trees here, perfect for the koalas to snack on between mealtimes, but they are still going to plant more trees. now, these have been picked especially from the longleat estate because they are perfect for koalas to really sink their claws into and scale all the way up. but they can eat up to 500 grams of eucalyptus leaves in a single day. that's one of the reasons the team here have been growing their own supply. we have faced some challenges. we had, obviously, the heavy snow back in march which has kind of set us back a little bit, but since this nice sunshine has happened, they have sprouted right up, so definitely become more positive.

but when these six furry friends arrive in the autumn, it is hoped we will be able to learn more about how to help protect these iconic creatures. laura foster, bbc news, at longleat. les dawson wasn'tjust a comic genius, he also did his best to appear a very bad piano player. in fact, it took a certain kind of brilliance to be quite so terrible. his work has now been immortalised by the national orchestra of wales, which is performing his distinctive style alongside pieces by rachmaninov and shostakovich. our arts correspondent, david sillito, went to meet the man behind the les dawson overture. plays piano. meet composer thomas hyde, and the opening to his new overture, les at leisure. hits off-key note. ah! that final note captures it! the musical genius of les dawson. occasionally hits wrong keys

while playing piano. laughter. that's it! and for anyone unaware of the master's special approach to the piano, here are a few of his greatest moments. occasionally hits wrong keys while playing piano. laughter. you were a big admirer of les? yes. do you admire him now more that you've tried to do this? absolutely, because it's trying to understand it from a technical level, and what's so interesting... so he is a skilled musician? yes. yes, he is. yes, to be this bad, you have to have real skill. and so, a little masterclass in the genius of les. if i, for example, do this... hits wrong notes while playing mozart's sonata 16. ok, you suddenly realise

that i've gone wrong. but it wasn't necessarily particularly funny. so, for example, if i do this... hits fewer notes while playing mozart's sonata16. ..then it starts to become, as it were, a les dawsonification of the music. what would be the perfect les version of mozart? well, the perfect version of les would — he would often take, er, start going in the wrong direction and then would carry on regardless, as if he was completely unaware of what had happened. so... plays mozart's sonata 16 but gradually gets worse. that's it! it is a special skill, but les also sang, and so tom brought along patrick. he was here to show us, in this football moment, the true dawson style. sings god save the queen off—key.

i think that's probably enough! let's end with this — a little bit of the les overture in its full orchestral glory. fantastic, isn't it?! a quick update from moscow, the latest score is a—2. with some 15 minutes or so to go until full—time. it is france four, croatia two. that matches being shown live on bbc one. now it's time for a look at the weather, with sarah keith lucas. hello there.

for many places, the warm, glorious summer weather is to continue through the course of the weekend. but things are starting to change. this was the scene sunday afternoon in hastings. beautiful blue skies there captured by one of our weather watchers. and as we head through the coming week, things will gradually start to turn a little bit cooler. there will be the chance that that sunshine will be interrupted by some rain, which will be welcome rainfall across some parts of the country that have seen barely any rain over the past six weeks or so. so, the rain that we're going to see at some point this week is all down to frontal systems moving in from the north west, while high—pressure still keeps things dry over the south and east of the uk. so, here's the satellite and radar showing the cloud and rain that we've had out there during sunday afternoon. particularly for northern ireland and the western half of scotland, it has been raining. but for eastern scotland, things remaining dry into the evening hours. england and wales ending the day on a warm, humid and dry note. through this evening and overnight, we will start to see more cloud just pushing its way into parts of north—west england and wales as well, with a few spells of rain. northern ireland clearer,

drier and fresher overnight. but down towards the south east, still 17 degrees or so in london, that's the overnight low, which will feel quite warm and quite humid to start monday morning. monday, another warm, humid day for central and eastern parts of england, with the sunshine again. but further north west, a change behind that front. more cloud working dinner across parts of eastern scotland, northern england and wales, with some sharp showers as that front makes its way eastwards. —— more cloud working in across parts of eastern scotland, northern england and wales, with some sharp showers as that front makes its way eastwards. so, temperatures ranging from about 20 in belfast to nearer 30 towards london. so, certainly a contrast in temperature from east to west behind that cold front. there could still be some showers on that frontal system across eastern england through tuesday. they should ease away. but of course, this will be welcome rainfall for parts of the country that really are desperate for a bit of rain.

so, most places, though, do look largely dry, with a mix of sunny spells and just one or two scattered showers tending to bubble up almost anywhere, i think, during the afternoon, in the daytime heat. but temperatures 23—25 for most of us, about five degrees cooler than we've seen during the weekend. then if we look ahead through the middle of the week, still some sunny spells, temperatures not doing too badly at all. but it will turn cooler and wetter as we look towards the end of the week and on into the weekend. bye— bye. hello, this is bbc news. the headlines: the us president, donald trump, has left the uk on air force one. he's on his way to meet the russian president in helsinki. the prime minister warns conservative mps they are putting brexit at risk by arguing over her proposals for how the uk will leave the eu. if we are going to find something which is in britain's interest, delivered on the referendum and

negotiable, we had to make what is a compromise but which is a positive in terms of the benefits it gives us. it's the world cup final in moscow this afternoon and these are the jubilant scenes in paris, with france leading croatia a—2. police say the search operation to find traces of the novichok nerve agent, which poisoned dawn strugess, and charlie rowley, is "the most complex and difficult uk policing has everfaced." novak djokovic has won this year's men's wimbledon title. beating hte south african kevin anderson in straight sets. sport now, and there is a lot going on, we can go straight to moscow. many thanks indeed, still a lot more can happen in the most fantastic of world cup finals, france leading croatia, a—2, 13 minutes left to

play and whatever injury time they have. the highest scoring world cup final in 60 years, let's show you a couple of the goals, france took the lead, thanks to an own goal by mario mandzukic, that was the first own goal to be scored in a world cup final, it has been one of those games. event heritage equalised, wonderful strike, took a pretty hefty deflection, from rapha l varane, so1—1, hefty deflection, from rapha l varane, so 1—1, after 30 minutes. hefty deflection, from rapha l varane,so1—1,after30 minutes. —— ivan peri i . then we had this var incident before half—time, the match really turned on this and it was ivan peri ic who had equalised, went up ivan peri ic who had equalised, went up to defend a set piece, his left hand went down, referee called on the video assistant referee, to pore

over all of the slow motion, finally deciding he had got it wrong and awarded a penalty, which antoine griezmann scored, 2—1 up, but they did not deserve it, croatia were by far the better team, and they started the second half more brightly as well, but then, a real sucker punch, two goals in the space of six minutes from the french, the first of them was mum paul pogba. a couple of bites at it, wonderful finish, goalkeeper rooted to the spot, and really should have done better with 25 minutes left to play, kylian mbappe, the first teenager to score in a world cup final since palais back in 1958, then an absolute clanger from hugo palais back in 1958, then an absolute clangerfrom hugo lloris, tried to walk it around mario mandzukic, but look at that, he is not going to be fooled by that! ——

since pele in 1958. a—2, final ten minutes, a—2 still, croatia really pushing to get another one back, which would make it very nervy for the last ten minutes or so, for the 98 champions. the french and the croatians must have some very weary legs out there, croatia have brought on kramaric, two penalty shoot outs, knocked england out, three periods of extra time, olivier giroud going off, fekir coming on for france, nine minutes left for croatia to try to get themselves back into that, or france to hold on for what would be their second world title, world champions again, 20 years after they last won it. that match is on bbc

one. just as this was kicking off at the luzhniki stadium, england were landing, their players getting back after losing that third place play—off against belgium, insein —— in st petersburg, landing at birmingham airport, and adam wilde is there for us. that sense of timing was not lost on anyone, just as the players were taking to the pitch in moscow, this plane, you may well be able to see it behind me, landing here at birmingham airport, really low— key welcome home, certainly no parade, no great fa nfa re, certainly no parade, no great fanfare, there were around 50 or 60 fans waving from the top of a multistorey car park. i caught up with gareth southgate after they landed, he said they did just a little bit of celebrating. amazing, amazing group to work with. really

tight, everybody connected, players and staff, and we had a few drinks last night and everybody was singing. very special. that gives you a chance of being a successful team, not all about science, not all about what happens on the pitch. moments that you share together. those relationships and friendships are with you for ever and that is an important part of sport. we were aware of a number of landmarks we wa nted aware of a number of landmarks we wanted to hit, barriers we wanted to break through, always better to be looking to build and improve from a position of reaching the last four. we know there is work to do, we are not the finished article as a team but we know there is happiness, and that has been very special. —— we know that we have brought a lot of happiness to people. as a team, asa

lot of happiness to people. as a team, as a squad, quite some go to “ some way team, as a squad, quite some go to —— some way to go before they match the top teams but that regressed under his stewardship has been very rewarding for him personally, as he told me, something you noticed, we have a lot about it, the tight—knit feeling among the squad, you could see it as the players got off the plane, hearty handshakes and embraces, close group of young men, got into their fleet of waiting cars, heading back to families, they have been away for a long time, a lot to catch up on. with such a young, tight—knit squad, which has achieved so much, surpassed so many expectations, a huge amount of optimism about getting this team going forward. many thanks, england have arrived back, they have been away a long time, longer than many had anticipated, going home, final weekend of the world cup. the final still playing, six minutes left, france leading a—2, leading croatia.

france leading a—2, leading croatia. france heading for the world cup title, the coming world champions for the second time. we will be back here if anything else happens. for now, it's been a big finals day at the all england club as well. yes, many thanks indeed, day 13, men's finals day, another beautiful day here in south—west london, novak djokovic has won a fourth wimbledon title, beating south africa's kevin anderson over three sets, always going to be a fascinating contest, this one, in light of the two gruelling semifinal matches both players had to come through, novak djokovic beating rival rafa nadal in the second semifinal, and kevin anderson requiring a full six and a half hours out on court to get past john isner, in that epic match, the second longest in when northern

history. proved a step too far today for kevin anderson, novak djokovic picked up another grand slam title. this is what it means after months of injury and doubters to win your full wimbledon title, it had been 80 yea rs full wimbledon title, it had been 80 years since a south african had graced a wimbledon men's final, but novak djokovic is a man very familiar with this stage. it was a who's who in the royal box, opening to be treated to another box office billing, the serbian started the stronger, anderson was more than capable of grasping opportunities. co-commentator: he has mist it, wide. mist mark and precedents set for the rest of the contents, giving novak djokovic sets number one. -- he has missed it. missed mark. novak djokovic always makes you hit one more shot, perhaps one of the best returners in the game, sometimes thatis returners in the game, sometimes that is all it takes. both players have run marathons in the last

fortnight, near, sprint finish looked the more likely of outcomes. you don't win the longest emmy final in wimbledon history without being a fighter, anderson was not going anywhere just yet. —— fighter, anderson was not going anywherejust yet. —— longest semifinal. championship point was just around the corner. that is it, fourth wimbledon title. something of inevitability about novak djokovic today, he is back and looks here to stay. many moments of doubt, did not know really if i could come back to the level to compete, and this was my first grand slam final after a couple of years, and there is no better place in the world to really make a comeback. this is a sacred place for the world of tennis. i always dreamt of holding this trophy asa always dreamt of holding this trophy as a young boy, starting to play tennis. this is very special. i'm

not feeling as fresh now as i was coming into the week but such an amazing tournament for all of us players, we dedicate our whole lives to trying to fight for a spot to be oi'i to trying to fight for a spot to be on the squad, only a few individuals who have made it out, that is what it has agitate for me to get there, i would have given another 21 hours to have the opportunity to play here! it really meant a lot to me, thank you. a to b to fully put by kevin anderson, huge support for him out on centre court today, russell fuller joins out on centre court today, russell fullerjoins me now to reflect on that match. we heard novak djokovic say he was not sure he could get back to that level to compete, how impressed should we be by his performance in this championships, that he should be able to in light of problems with fitness he has been through. not the only one, he really played very well at queen's club, should have won that title, marin cilic beating him in the final, novak djokovic one set up, match

point, that was the sort of situation you expect him to convert, lost quite badly in the quarterfinals of the french open, not quite at the level to be able to play this well at this particular wimbledon championships even though there has been quite dramatic signs of improvement over the last couple of improvement over the last couple of months. has come through tough matches early in the fortnight including against rafa nadal, world numberone, and he including against rafa nadal, world number one, and he was consistently too good for kevin anderson today, there he is, fourth time wimbledon champion, 13 grand titles now. we have been talking about it, the last 15 wimbledon finals have all been contested by one of the big four, not considering that novak djokovic was going to be a contender, but seems that their dominance will continue. at the moment there appears no end to it, before djokovic won the title, federer and aduu djokovic won the title, federer and adult had shared the previous six grand slam titles, now djokovic is looking like he's able to be a serious contender for another few years. —— nadal. looks as if his

motivation levels have been top up again. roger federer, clearly fighting father time, he will be 37 come the time of the us open but still won three grand slams in the la st still won three grand slams in the last 18 months. rafael nadal, so close to the final, we hope stanislas wawrinka and andy murray can come back into the mix. next—generation, players coming through, alex marrow is the obvious one, probably the one most likely to wina grand one, probably the one most likely to win a grand slam from the younger generation. —— alexander zverev. they have do not these guys out of the way and that is easier said than done. us open to come, for the moment, thanks indeed. certainly we would love to see andy murray back, wouldn't we, one of the big four. someone who is in action, a member of the murray family, jamie murray, alongside victoria azarenka in the next doubles. chance of british success next doubles. chance of british success in the final day of the championship, up against alexander paya, austria, and nicole melichar

of the czech republic and as you can see, murray and azarenka, a—3 of the czech republic and as you can see, murray and azarenka, 4—3 up in that opening set. going with serve at the moment, jamie murray has enjoyed great success. two times previously, including last year, teaming up with martina hingis, partnership with victoria azarenka taking them all the way through to the final, we can see live pictures of that mixed doubles final on ce ntre of that mixed doubles final on centre court. just a word as well on jack draper, in action in the boys singles final a little earlier on today, hoping for a first british winner in this event in 56 years. givena tough winner in this event in 56 years. given a tough work—out, on court numberone, up against given a tough work—out, on court number one, up against his chinese taipei opponent. dropped the first set, 1—6, took the second, 76, really battling back, showing all of his competitive instinct to draw

level in the match but could not get back into it, in the third, losing it 4-6. back into it, in the third, losing it 4—6. disappointment forjack draper as we were saying, hoping for the first ever british excess in this event in 56 years. the last person to win it, little—known fact, sir stanley matthews's son. —— hoping for the first ever british success hoping for the first ever british success in this event in 56 years. for now, that is all from wimbledon, novak djokovic victorious once again, we will hand you back now, to the studio, in salford, for the rest of the day 's sport. chris froome crashed during stage nine of the tour de france. up to eight overall. —— chris froome crashed during stage nine of the tour de france but he got back on his bike to finish in the main bunch. he's up to 8th overall while greg van avamart has extended his lead over geraint thomas to a3—seconds...

trouble with the line, and i think hugh having trouble hearing us. celebrating their country's victory in the world cup final, in the last few minutes france have beaten croatia a—2 in the world cup final. clearly you can see there, seems on the streets of the french capital, as thousands of french fans are there to cheer on their side. —— scenes. french president, emmanuel macron, was there in moscow, to see his nation's victory, at the end of a contest that has had so much drama, so much excitement, of course, many england fans would have hoped that the england team could

but things are starting to change. this was the scene sunday afternoon in hastings. beautiful blue skies there captured by one of our weather watchers. and as we head through the coming week, things will gradually start to turn a little bit cooler. there will be the chance that that sunshine will be interrupted by some rain, which will be welcome rainfall across some parts of the country that have seen barely any rain over the past six weeks or so. so, the rain that we're going to see at some point this week is all down to frontal systems moving in from the north west, while high—pressure still keeps things dry over the south and east of the uk. so, here's the satellite and radar showing the cloud and rain that we've had out there during sunday afternoon. particularly for northern ireland and the western half of scotland, it has been raining. but for eastern scotland, things remaining dry into the evening hours. england and wales ending the day on a warm, humid and dry note. through this evening and overnight, we will start to see more cloud just pushing its way into parts of north—west england and wales as well, with a few spells of rain. northern ireland clearer, drier and fresher overnight. but down towards the south east, still 17 degrees or so in london, that's the overnight low, which will feel quite warm and quite humid to start monday morning.

monday, another warm, humid day for central and eastern parts of england, with the sunshine again. but further north west, a change behind that front. more cloud working in across parts of eastern scotland, northern england and wales, with some sharp showers as that front makes its way eastwards. so, temperatures ranging from about 20 in belfast to nearer 30 towards london. so, certainly a contrast in temperature from east to west behind that cold front. there could still be some showers on that frontal system across eastern england through tuesday. they should ease away. but of course, this will be welcome rainfall for parts of the country that really are desperate for a bit of rain. so, most places, though, do look largely dry, with a mix of sunny spells and just one or two scattered showers tending to bubble up almost anywhere, i think, during the afternoon, in the daytime heat. but temperatures 23—25 for most of us, about five degrees cooler than we've seen during the weekend. then if we look ahead through the middle of the week, still some sunny spells, temperatures not doing too badly at all. but it will turn cooler and wetter as we look towards the end of the week and on into the weekend. bye— bye. people calling him out, and it is

down to jose to unlock the pogba we have seen in this tournament, one of the talismans of that team. france will be strong favourites be tight and compact, but they have also got so much flair in there. griezmann, mbappe. he's talking to the people who are talking about him, hammering him for the last year. that is strength of character, thatis year. that is strength of character, that is what has been shown today, throughout france are world cup champions

for the second time. beating croatia a—2 in a thrilling final in moscow. these were the jubilant scenes in paris ——
