iran. senegal�*s fans were a credit to the team, i was inside the stadium and it did not match the score, base uncommon they were beating drums, they blew trumpets for the entire 90 minutes. it was an amazing atmosphere and those fans will be a big miss. the? amazing atmosphere and those fans will be a big miss.— will be a big miss. they will be devastated _ will be a big miss. they will be devastated and _ will be a big miss. they will be devastated and senegal- will be a big miss. they will be devastated and senegal but. will be a big miss. they will be - devastated and senegal but rightly proud of the team too. —— devastated in senegal. england play defending champions france in the quarterfinals on saturday, quite a match? , ~ ., . match? yes. i think france look terrifying- _ match? yes. i think france look terrifying. what _ match? yes. i think france look terrifying. what is _ match? yes. i think france look terrifying. what is interesting . match? yes. i think france look| terrifying. what is interesting as france lost the final group game to tunisia but they had rested all of their big names and they had already qualified for the knockout stages. kylian mbappe looks in red touchable, i have described him as a

year 11 kid playing against year sevens in a school playground he is not dominant sometimes, they beat poland 3—1, that victory could have been more convincing, robert lewandowski scoring a very late penalty which put a bit of shine on the scoreline that france look good. if there is any consolation to the rest of the teams in the tournament, france have looked so good, are they due a bad game all will be keep up the form and defend their trophy? hard to imagine watching mbappe tonight him having a bad night. great to see you, nestor mcgregor, thank you. the french newspapers and the world will be full of news about kylian mbappe thatjude bellingham will be the name everyone in england is talking about, he had a fantastic match and everybody on social media is discussing him. the fans love him, england has a massive group of travelling fans in qatar but

doesn't started streaming out, the heartbreak more than they could handle. those who stick around to the very end clapped for their team, they were proud of them for getting this far for only the second time in a world cup competition. they wish they could have gotten further but i think they were proud of the performance in the competition and we are still rooting for them, but lots of heartbreak, people milling around, trying to understand what went wrong, there was a moment to early in the game when a group like senegal might be leading, might be dominating, but after the first goal they were completely lost and the fancier here very frustrated and sad. ., ,., fancier here very frustrated and sad. ., . just to be a senegalese fan, but as nestor mcgregor said they have done the country project doha, they have been a lovely presents and they will

been a lovely presents and they will be missed now are home. england will now face france in the quarterfinals on saturday after france beat poland 3—1 earlier. my colleague 0lly foster was outside the al thumana stadium to tell us how the game played out. poland not half as bad as we thought they were going to be. they limped through the group stages to set up this last 16 tie against the french, the strong favourites, of course. and it is the scoreline, the result that we expected. but it was very tight at half—time, 0livier giroud had given the french the lead just before the break, his 52nd goal for his country. and that sees him overtake the great thierry henry, so 0livier giroud a happy man this evening, he is now france's record goal—scorer. but you know what? mbappe is fast going to catch up and perhaps will one day hold that record and sell. —— hold that record himself. it was a far quieter second half for the first

of 20 minutes or so, but then mbappe, you cannot keep a good man down. we were there, weren't we, in russia four years ago in moscow when mbappe really came to the fore, he was a teenager at that world cup in 2018, scoring four goals including in the final as well. well, he has now scored five in qatar, the first man to score that many goals before the age of 2a since the great pele. and, of course, everybody in the world of football, their thoughts are with pele who is very ill at the moment back home in brazil. but it was mbappe's night, two wonderful strikes to put the french 3—0. the poles kept at it and it was one of those ham. balls which glanced off a shoulder, arm, from upamecano, the french defender. -- it —— it was one of those handballs. they looked at var, they gave it to poland. hugo lloris, the french captain, actually saved the first effort but he was way off his line and robert lewandowski stepped

up to make it, well, a bit of a consolation, that's all it was for poland. they never deserved to go through. so it's the french who go through 3—1. incidentally, hugo lloris, his 142nd appearance for france, that's a joint record with lilian thuram. so a night of records, but you just know the headlines on monday will be killian mbappe, another wonderful evening for him here in qatar, he's up to five for the tournament. 0lly foster. i'm joined now by balla traore, who supports both france and senegal butjoins us from dartford in england. i'm really curious to know, are you a little bit conflicted this evening orjust a little bit conflicted this evening or just devastated. a little bit conflicted this evening orjust devastated. the a little bit conflicted this evening orjust devastated.— a little bit conflicted this evening orjust devastated. the goal? i'm a little bit conflicted, _ orjust devastated. the goal? i'm a little bit conflicted, i _ orjust devastated. the goal? i'm a little bit conflicted, i had _ orjust devastated. the goal? i'm a little bit conflicted, i had to - orjust devastated. the goal? i'm a little bit conflicted, i had to say. i little bit conflicted, i had to say. —— orjust devastated for senegal? i'm disappointed for senegal but

difficult to accept. they try to see if there was any chance he could be fit for the finals but unfortunately it was impossible and i think you could see in front of goal some of the chances, sadio mane is usually the chances, sadio mane is usually the man we relied on to put them on the man we relied on to put them on the back of the net and you could see a lack of cutting—edge upfront and i think we had seen a bit of that tonight. he has been missed. you have been busy today with all of these matches, you have happy neighbours and friends in dartford but you also have connections to france so at least you have one team going through. who will you support when france play england? that going through. who will you support when france play england?- when france play england? that is tric but when france play england? that is tricky but unfortunately _ when france play england? that is tricky but unfortunately i - when france play england? that is tricky but unfortunately i will - tricky but unfortunately i will support france. having said that i definitely want england to do well

so it is really difficult, i have been here. many years and i have great connections here, one side of me thinks if england are going to beat france and go on and win it then that is where i will stand. hora then that is where i will stand. how wonderful this _ then that is where i will stand. how wonderful this kylian mbappe, he was a ioy wonderful this kylian mbappe, he was a joy to watch? you must have been thrilled? == a joy to watch? you must have been thrilled? ., ., ., . ., thrilled? -- how wonderfulwas? what a ila er he thrilled? -- how wonderfulwas? what a player he is. — thrilled? -- how wonderfulwas? what a player he is. he _ thrilled? -- how wonderfulwas? what a player he is. he is— thrilled? -- how wonderfulwas? what a player he is, he is widely _ a player he is, he is widely considered the best player in the world right now, some may disagree but you have to see how he has been performing at the world cup to see the talent, his pace is frightening, the talent, his pace is frightening, the skills, he is a ruthless finisher, it is unbelievable. he has been described _ finisher, it is unbelievable. he has been described here _ finisher, it is unbelievable. he has been described here is _ finisher, it is unbelievable. he has been described here is the - finisher, it is unbelievable. he has. been described here is the complete striker, the player that has everything. i think you summed it up

nicely. enjoy the match, we might have to come back to you for your reaction. so here's a reminder of the rest of those last 16 matches. we already know our two quarter finals — netherlands v argentina, and france v england. plenty more to come over the coming days too before we reach that stage, though. from here in doha, some very happy england fans. the senegalese have been very popular here that they are on the way home. time for a good night's rest for everyone. studio: indeed, lucy, you have earned it. here in the uk, passengers are bracing for christmas rail disruptions. the leading transport sector union — rmt — has rejected an offer from the rail delivery group — which represents train companies — aimed at preventing strikes in the run up to christmas. 0ur transport correspondent katy austin explained what the company had offered the union. there have been a lot of negotiations happening over the last few days, over this weekend, to try and see if anything can be agreed to prevent

these latest strikes going ahead. the next national strikes involving the rmt union, about 40,000 rail workers across the country, are due to begin on the 13th of december, in just nine days. now, today for the first time the group representing the train companies' side of the dispute have made an offer to unions, to the rmt. now, they describe that as a framework where essentially there would be a 4% pay rise for this year, backdated, and a 4% pay rise for next year. however, that would depend on changes to working practices being agreed, they say, to be able to fund that pay rise. now, that includes things like changes to the way staff work at stations, who are currently on ticket offices, they would move to what the rdg described as multi—skilled roles and those ticket offices, some of them would close eventually. it also includes changes to the role of some staff on board the train

and a move to more driver only operated trains, whether drivers operate the doors in more areas, because that is already in place in some areas. and also changes to the way rostering is done so that sunday working would be part of the contract and not just voluntary. so there is quite a few conditions involved in this offer, it not just about the pay. they are saying the pay offer comes with these conditions. it's not just transport workers in the uk planning strikes for the festive season. health unions are also considering similar action. the conservative party chairman, nadhim zahawi, has said the strikes were unfair at christmas. the general secretary of the royal college of nursing, pat cullen, gave us her reaction: (sot next) the chairman is playing what he considers a clever game. 0ur nurses know exactly what has caused the cost of living crisis and it's a decade of underpayment to our nurses, their pay falling

by 20%, that has placed them in this position. it's not the issues with putin at this point in time that has caused the crisis in the nhs. so for the tory chairman to come out and say that is certainly not lost on my nursing colleagues, but i don't think it will be lost on the people of this country either. the reuters news agency is reporting reaction from the uk transport secretary on the rmt�*s rejection of the rail delivery group's offer, saying unions should present the offer to members and call off a strike. that is the statement from the uk transport secretary. the iranian attorney general has said the authorities are moving to dismantle the country's so called morality police which enforce

a strict islamic dress—code. it follows months of protest over the death of mahsa amini, a young woman who died in police custody, after being detained for allegedly wearing her headscarf improperly. there's been no confirmation yet from the interior ministry, which is in charge of the morality police. siavash ardalan from the bbc persian service explains the significance of this announcement. it is significant if it is true, but the protesters initially, as the news came out this morning, was celebrating it as a sign that they had made an impact, that the government was in retreat. but as the dust settled from all those global headlines and it became more apparent that this is not exactly what it seems, the opposition now is a little bit more disappointed but, nevertheless, emboldened that they still need to press on. there are a few reasons that this news should be taken with a grain of salt. first of all, it was an offhand remark. if it was a huge retreat on the part of the government, they would have held a press conference. the government would have issued a communique, change of policy. but it was an offhand remark to a question asked by a reporter,

"where are the morality police?" the morality police is nowhere to be seen after the death of mahsa amini, who died in their custody. so on the ground, it is making little difference. and what is important is the law that the morality police was tasked with enforcing, which is the mandatory hijab, is still in place. there is no sign that that law has changed. and even if that law were to change, as far as the protesters are concerned, the protesters have been demanding regime change all along, that's not enough, let alone the story about the disbanding of the morality police, which is not even still confirmed. and how widespread do the protests continue to be at the moment? they go through ebbs and flows, but they nevertheless are continuing. especially in the western provinces of balochistan and kurdistan, where you have ethnic minorities. but even in bigger cosmopolitan centres, every night, there are clashes between security forces and small groups of demonstrators who engage in confrontations, only to be disbursed and then to gather somewhere else. but the opposition has called

for a three—day strike, starting from tomorrow. and they were initially emboldened by the story of this, thinking that the government has now retreated, so they smelt some weakness, so they feel good about what's going to happen tomorrow. do you feel that the opposition, as you call them, are more coordinated than they were at the beginning of these protests? no, i don't, because the opposition, when we're talking opposition, we're just loosely referring to decentralised groups of protesters. young people inside the country, without any central headquarters. the reference to the opposition really is either the reformists, who have beenjailed or discredited by the public, or we are talking about the diaspora opposition groups in exile, who don't seem to have that much of a commanding impact in representing a leadership for the iranians at this stage.we people living near the semeru volcano in indonesia are being evacuated and authorities

have issued the highest warning level after it started erupting. the volcano began erupting in the early hours of this morning — with grey ash clouds said to have spread widely. it follows a deadly eruption last year. semeru is the highest volcano injava and one of the most active. a committee of south africa's governing ashen —— governing african congress are looking into allegations about cyril ramaphosa. the allegations are around him keeping large sums of money to prop and covering up the theft. three chinese astronauts have returned to earth after living for six months on an orbiting space station. their shenzhou—fourteen spaceship landed as planned in inner mongolia. the astronauts completed the assembly of the tiangong space station before handing over to another crew. all three are said to be in good health.

jewellers have begun re—sizing the crown which will be used for the coronation of king charles next may. the st edwards crown weighs nearly four and a half pounds — that's two kilos — and is normally on display with the rest of the crown jewels at the tower of london. here's our royal correspondent, daniela relph. the st edward's crown marks the actual moment of coronation, used here by queen elizabeth in 1953. the crown dates back to 1661, made for king charles ii. now, it is being altered to fit king charles iii, ready for his coronation next year. the operation to move the crown from the tower of london happened at night and under tight security. it is now being altered at a secret location by the crown jeweller. the st edward's crown has a solid gold frame and is set with rubies, amethysts and sapphires. it is the centrepiece of the crown jewels. plans for the king's coronation on the 6th of may next year

at westminster abbey, are well underway. buckingham palace says the ceremony will reflect the monarch's role today, and look to the future. but some things will remain unchanged and rooted in long standing traditions and pageantry. the st edward's crown is one of them. daniela ralph, bbc news. this full vico a reminder of four top story, england have won their game against senegal 3—0 —— before we go, a reminder of our top scoring. this was the scene at box park in wembley when the first goal went in, scored byjordan henderson. they continue to celebrate as three goals were scored by the england team, mailing they go through to the quarterfinals and will play france on saturday. senegal are now out of the competition. that is it from me,

you can reach me on twitter, thank you can reach me on twitter, thank you for watching. hello, there. last week, the weather story was dominated with low cloud, mist and fog. was dominated with low this week, however, is quite a significant gear change to something a little bit more wintry. certainly turning colder. but yes, there's going to be a chance of snow. more on that in just a moment. widespread frost as well for all of us. so last week we were under the influence of this area of high pressure. but over the next few days we can track the isobars back to the north. the wind direction changing, and that will introduce this colder air. not quite there during monday. more of a northeasterly flow. monday will be a lot of low grey cloud. a cold day. some showers spilling off the east coast and filtering a little bit further west. not that much sunshine around. favoured spots, western scotland and northern ireland with highs of five to eight celsius.

so, the wind direction starting to drag down that cold arctic air. as we move through tuesday, particularly tuesday night to wednesday. so for tuesday, the emphasis to the showers changes a little. along those exposed north coasts, still running along the east coast. and some pushing down through the irish sea as well. in between, there will be some sunshine around on tuesday. still another cold day. now those clear skies by day will lead to a very cold night. widespread temperatures down to minus two degrees. so a hard frost to greet pretty much all of us first thing on wednesday morning. and that's when we're going to start to see the risk of some snow showers. particularly into the far north of scotland. a veil of cloud sinking its way steadily south. central and southern areas the best of the sunshine. but the met office has issued an early warning for snow on wednesday. we could see as much as two to 10 cm settling even at lower levels as we go through the day. and it's turning noticeably colder on wednesday.

temperatures struggling just a few degrees above freezing. factor in the wind, probably feeling more like —2 to —3 along those exposed northeastern areas. then as we move into wednesday we need to keep a close eye on the area of low pressure. the position of that low is going to influence where we are likely to see some wintry showers. but we could see some wintry showers through the southwest. and potentially along that east coast. if the low tracks a little bit further west. there would be more showers coming in further england. but again staying cold. —— coming further inland.

snow this is bbc world news, the headlines england have beaten senegal 3—0 to qualify for the quarter finals of the world cup in qatar. two breakaway goals just before half time and a third soon after made for a comfortable victory in the first ever match between the two nations. england will next meet france in the quarter finals next saturday night. the french team secured their place in the next stage after beating poland 3—1. kylian mbappe scored twice. iran's attorney general has said the country could move to dismantle the police unit that enforces the islamic dress code. his comments have yet to be confirmed by other agencies. in the uk — passengers are bracing for christmas rail disruptions. the rmt union has rejected an offer from the group that represents train
