ice again. hello, good evening. the build—up to england's nations league game against spain this evening has been marred by violence on the streets of seville. riot police were called in last night as fans vandalised cars. the fa says its unacceptable behaviour, and that they'll work with the police to identify and punish anyone involved. 0ur sports editor dan roan is in seville. what have you seen? there is no doubt that this only involves a small minority of england fans, but nonetheless it is becoming a recurring and embarrassing problem for the fa. all too regular when

england play abroad. as you can see, there was some anti—social behaviour on the streets of seville last night. picked up by social media and also by local media. local police we re also by local media. local police were called and have a dispersed those bands that were causing trouble. there was some vandalism at times, and it was broken up pretty quickly. no confirmation of any arrests or serious injuries, but it does come after the british police pleaded with the 3000 or so england fa ns pleaded with the 3000 or so england fans who made the journey not to have a repeat of those ugly scenes, three years ago in alicante when there was trouble. there is still fresh memories of what occurred in amsterdam earlier this year when is over 100 arrests of england supporters following clashes with the police before and after england's match with the netherlands. their has been improved byaa

netherlands. their has been improved by a a trouble—free world cup in russia, but that trouble last night will have undone some of that good work and deputy chief cost mark robertson is the national league for police of football fans abroad has said that it was highly disheartening and he has urged the supporters to behave themselves this evening. the match itself, just over one hour away, a draw against croatia on friday, what you think they can hope for against spain? first and foremost they need a win, because if they lose again, and of course they were beaten by spain last month that baby, then it might be they are demoted from their group in this new competition. the nation ‘s elite. it will not have any bearing on their qualification for the next euros, but nonetheless it will represent a step back after the progress made in the summer in russia when gareth southgate's side made their way to the semifinals.

they are yet to win a competitive match since they beat sweden in the quarterfinals. if they fail to win again for quarterfinals. if they fail to win againfora quarterfinals. if they fail to win again for a fifth successive competitive match and will equal every concept by graham taylor in 1992. southgate will be desperate to avoid that. he has said that he was disappointed by how little time there was between the end of the world cup and the start of the premier league and he says players are tired. i don't understand why the league started so early. but they did and so the difficult situation for the club, some of them could not have fielded a team, looking at tottenham, they had so many players in the semifinal of the world cup they had to put their players straight into matches on the back of very little pre—season.m southgate wants a measure just how far his side have come coming could not wish for better opposition than spain. 0ne not wish for better opposition than spain. one of the babies of world

football, rejuvenated after their world cup disappointment, something ofa world cup disappointment, something of a level provided by the rainstorm that has been hammering down all afternoon in seville. there is talk of the match being called off, but no sense of that now, but it is very wet and southgate will hope that his young side can find some joy as a result. northern ireland are in sarajevo, taking on bosnia—herzegovina tonight, looking to pick up their first points in the group. they lost in austria on friday night and lost to tonight's opponents in belfast last month. manager michael 0'neill knows improvements need to be made. stephen watson reports. a more skilful performance and more clinical finishing a more skilful performance and more clinicalfinishing is a more skilful performance and more clinical finishing is what the northern ireland manager has requested the night in bosnia. we would like to see improvements front of goal, chances the other night we didn't take. in terms of being as competitive as we can, be played against a very powerful austrian

tea m against a very powerful austrian team andi against a very powerful austrian team and i think that showed in terms of second ball in the game, they won more second ball than ours. basics to be honest at this level. we need to make sure not overpowered, and other times in the game in vienna we were a little overpowered. northern ireland lost the meeting between the sides in belfast despite dominating much of the match. the captain knows the challenge away from home will be greater. expecting a difficult game, a couple of world—class players in their ranks. it will be a different proposition and what we faced in belfast in september. we will be up for it after the disappointment of the other night. the challenge is to develop their squad by introducing young players, but getting positive results along the way. they are without a competitive win in six games and without an away goal in five matches, reckons they are hoping to change the light. —— records. also coming up in the programme: we report from the faroe islands as they battle to compete

as an independent nation at the olympics. it is not fair because i am a swimmer like everyone else around the world, it feels like that is the only thing that is holding me back to reach my biggest team in the 0lympics. —— may biggest dream. it is six months today since england snatched netball gold at the commonwealth games. that last—second goal, stunning the world champions australia in their own backyard. cue wild celebrations. but the win has had a more lasting effect than just those happy memories — a survey on behalf of england netball shows more than 130,000 women have taken up netball or play more of it since the commonwealth games. 0ur reporter emily croydon joins me now and has been looking into this for us. talk us through these findings. it is all hugely positive,

particularly around participation, which for a sport which is not an 0lympic which for a sport which is not an olympic sport and therefore funded by sport england is absolutely crucial. as you say, over 130,000 aduu crucial. as you say, over 130,000 adult women have taken up netball or written to the spot having been inspired by the commonwealth gold won a spectacle of fashion in april. large numbers of those are playing through the back to netball scheme which separate aspect celebrated its tenth birthday. these are drop—in sessions which allow women of any age and any experience level to have age and any experience level to have agoat age and any experience level to have a go at the sport. also positive in this report is that 70,000 tickets have already been sold for the world cup in liverpool next year. it seems like this sport which has long been perceived by many as pamela has a school sport is beginning to broaden its reach, and with england superstar serena guthrie returning to play netball in english super league next year, there will be putting more opportunities for netball to capitalise on that commonwealth success. jane adams

dieters. brilliant reading, these figures. what do you make of these results 7 figures. what do you make of these results? absolutely amazing results, and we have been a growing team sport for quite a long time. itjust shows that when you have that moment in the spotlight at it is broadcast toi.8 in the spotlight at it is broadcast to 1.8 million people, it adds truly inspires women and girls to go back toa inspires women and girls to go back to a sport that some of them laughed and maybe didn't laugh, but still wa nt and maybe didn't laugh, but still want to go back. it is phenomenal. participation is the thing that drives our sport. ayes johanna, participation is the thing that drives our sport. ayesjohanna, how big an opportunity is the world cup next year and 40 plans around that to try and grow the sport even more? it isa to try and grow the sport even more? it is a massive opportunity, so many initiatives that will go on that before and after the games. we are excited that onjuly before and after the games. we are excited that on july the 22nd b1 to open as many netball court facilities in this country to inspire every woman or girl to take

to court, so we have laws that campaign which we think will be a legacy for the sport. also we are seeing more commercial investment coming in on the back of the commonwealth games sponsors, we have some exciting announcements to make in the next couple of weeks. it is important not just about the participation, commercial return, but everything about the sport, if you do not get those moments outside of the netball family, not everyone sees your sport. lead time for netball. thank you so much. i wasn't expecting you to appear on that screen, sorry. emily, thank you for bringing us up to date. england spinner liam dawson will miss the rest of the one—day series in sri lanka. he's been in the first two starting 11s but sat out training today with a side strain. the squad is in kandy for their next match on wednesday, with chris woakes enjoying the opportunity to open the bowling again. i don't always hear as the leader of

the attack, obviously some guys have good days and some guys are bad days, i have the occasional bad day and someone will have to step up. i certainly like that the idea of bowling the top overs in this format. you get good rewards from it. sometimes it can be tough but the rewards are there if you do it well and execute your plans well. the former sri lanka captain sanath jayasuriya has been charged with two counts of breaching the icc anti corruption code. the former all—rounder is accused of failing to co—operate with an investigation, and obstructing that investigation by "concealing, tampering with or destroying evidence". he has 14 days to respond. afghanistan's hazratullah zazai has joined a very elite club — only the third batsman to hit six sixes in an over, in a twenty20 match. he managed to knock every ball over the boundary, making 37 runs off the over because there was a wide as well. zazai raced to his 50 off 12 balls, equalling the record for the fastest t20 half—century. he joins the likes of sir garfield sobers,

herschelle gibbs and yuvraj singh to achieve the feat in all forms of the game. but they still lost the match. here's a quick look at some of the other stories making the headlines today: saracens' forward billy vunipola will miss england's autumn internationals after fracturing his left arm in?yesterday‘s? champions cup match at glasgow. he'll have surgery tomorrow and will be out of action for up to 12 weeks. commonwealth gymnastics all=around champion nile wilson will miss this month's world championships after snapping a ligament in his finger in training. he also missed the european championships in august with a neck injury. ronnie 0'sullivan eased into the second round of snooker‘s english open in crawley with a 4—1 victory over norway's kurt maflin. after the match, 0'sullivan desribed the venue as a "hellhole" and said it smelt of urine. usain bolt says he was stunned to be given a notice for a drugs test although only on trial

with australian side central coast mariners. despite retiring from athletics, bolt has been told he is still an "elite athlete" and must comply. he is waiting to find out whether he will be offered a professional football contract. 0lympic curling bronze medallist eve muirhead says she's back to full fitness after having hip surgery five months ago. its been a tough year for muirhead, after disappointment at the pyeongchang 0lympics and then an injury that made herfeel like she might never take to the ice again. jane lewis reports. back on ice... and back on track. the start of the deer was not a great one for eve muirhead's drink. miller make that means the bronze medal goes to japan. they finished out with the medals at the winter 0lympics. and then missed out on

representing scotland at the world championships. what a fabulous victory. disappointment but also real pain for the team's skip, and it may she decided to undergo hip surgery. it may she decided to undergo hip surgery. i remember waking up on that hospital bed and thinking that ididn't that hospital bed and thinking that i didn't know whether i could ever hit the ice again, and it is difficult. i had a top few weeks, i have worked hard to get where i am andi have worked hard to get where i am and i have tried to be the best at everything i do. —— a tough few weeks. i didn't know whether i would slide again, i knew i needed to get a change, because of the pain is going through. it was not fun. things are on the up and muirhead is backin things are on the up and muirhead is back in action with the european culling championships in her sights. she believes her team to estonia with two new faces on board. they have made me feel so welcome and it just feels so good to be part of this team. everyone has been training hard. i am

this team. everyone has been training hard. iam looking this team. everyone has been training hard. i am looking forward to getting going. it is different from before, training is harder, different competitions, different standards, higher than what middle east do. new girls going forward, a lot of big things ahead of ours. as a team we can work hard and get back to the good old days and enjoy it. pino head is ready, the skin is fit again, the event are about to head out to canada for two tournament in preparation for next month's european championships. where they will be defending their title and hoping not to, short. —— not to come up hoping not to, short. —— not to come up short. the tiny faroe islands are pushing to be allowed to compete as an independent nation at the olympics. their athletes take part in eight international sports, including football, as the faroes, but at the olympics they're forced to compete under the flag of denmark. now they want that to change, as our sports correspondent, alex ca pstick, reports. stunning scenery in a land miles from anywhere, and with isolation comes a strong sense of national identity, but the faroe islands

is facing an uphill struggle for sporting independence. football already offers these faroese fans a chance to express their patriotism through sport, as the national team is recognised by fifa. the players want the same for everyone. we're actually playing for the other sports as well, because they never get that feeling like we do, because we're representing our country, you can represent the flag. signhild joensson is 17—years—old and is on track to achieve the olympic qualifying standard for tokyo 2020, but under the current rules her only route to the games is by applying for a place in the danish team. it feels like it's not fair, because i'm a swimmer like everyone else around the world, and i also have worked for that goalfor a long time. it feels like that's the only thing that's holding me back to reach my biggest dream, that is the olympics, and under the faroese flag. the faroe islands is unique in many ways,

not least its dramatic landscape, but also its remote location in the north atlantic, and the people here are fiercely independent. but as far as the ioc is concerned, it's still a region in the kingdom of denmark, and although it might be self—governing governing, that is not enough for a place in the olympics. in response, the ioc gave us a statement, referring to their rules and regulations which says all countries must be recognised by the international community. the prime minister told me it doesn't make sense. i can't understand it. i don't think it's logic. as i told you, we are a self governing country, and we do hold membership in a lot of international organisations, so it's a broken dream for a lot of our young people if they cannot compete at the olympic games. for this paralympics athlete, it is wrong that this country continues to be barred from the olympics.

green she won medals in the 1992 0lympics. in this one, this is the world championships in malta. i am showing this to you because on the back it says, in pursuit of equality. and now we are fighting the other way around. we are fighting for the ones who are able—bodied. the faroes are investing heavily in sport, but without 0lympic medals to aim for, the fear is future generations won't reach the heights of their full potential. alex capstick, bbc news, the fa roe islands. british diver anthony harding and trampolinist andrew stamp both won silver for great britain on the eighth day of competition at the youth olympics in buenos aires. 18—year old harding comes from 0ldham but trains in leeds with olympic champion divers jack laugher and chris mears. he led the final until the last round of the three—metre springboard

competition but lost out to columbia's daniel restrepo. despite just missing the gold, these were the scenes as anthony's parents and younger sister watched on — they were incredibly emotional as they saw their son make the podium. and anthony's parents louise and pauljoin me now from the olympic park in buenos aires. thank you for finding the time to talk to ask amid all your celebrations. louise, we are loving those pictures of your reaction. tell us how much it meant to you. when we came, we had no expectations, we just came to see him finish. when he got to the prelims in second place, everyone was standing, we were like,, this could be him winning his team. the
