hello there, and welcome to sportsday this saturday. and all eyes were on england's eagerly awaited first group game of the women's world cup. but it's fair to say they made hard work of haiti in brisbane. georgia stanway�*s retaken penalty proving the difference, against one of the lowest ranked teams in the tournament, who could have come away with a famous result, if it wasn't for some vital saves from england keeper mary earps. nevertheless, the european champions kick off with a 1—0 victory. jane dougall has more. not a convincing win for england. they looked rusty and they certainly were not clinical enough in front of the goal. they were very fortunate not to concede against a strong haitian side who had several good chancesin haitian side who had several good chances in front of goal and could very well have been a banana skin for the lioness in their first match of the tournament. katie was

6:34 pm
but the underdogs were not overawed and had the game's first real chance. just as england were getting started, chloe kelly was stopped brutally in her tracks. the crowd suggested a penalty but the referee spotted a foul in the build—up and had this to say. this spotted a foul in the build-up and had this to say.— had this to say. no penalty. england's — had this to say. no penalty. england's manager - had this to say. no penalty. england's manager was - had this to say. no penalty. england's manager was not| had this to say. no penalty. _ england's manager was not impressed but minutes later they were given a helping hand when a basketball move in the area, this time there was only one outcome. as they were celebrating, ver intervened again. they are had been off line so england had another go. a second chance. england were up and running. england may be one of the best in the world but haiti have never been better. in the second have their
6:35 pm
star was scrambling. england had been told to be ruthless but chances came and chances went. haiti never let up. mary with a super save. in the end, england had their keeper to thank for their three points. it was never comfortable but haiti had a performance they can be proud of england had the result they needed. afterwards i spoke to lucy who said that they would certainly have to work on their finishing in front of goal and we saw some of her fantastic saves. i also spoke to the goalkeeper who said she was more involved in the game then she might have liked to have been. i involved in the game then she might have liked to have been.— have liked to have been. i think that is something _

6:37 pm
metres apart but divided by so much. the americans are a superpower, aiming forthe third the americans are a superpower, aiming for the third world cup in a row. they can play the game at its breathtaking best. smith's goal took 40 breathtaking best. smith's goal took a0 minutes. then the chance to make it to but the moment of glorious defiance. as close as vietnam would get to a goal. in less than ten minutes, smith pounced for her second, initially ruled out for offside but awarded by the ai. second, initially ruled out for offside but awarded by the al. the usa are favourites for the tournament and created plenty of chances but it took until late in the second half of their captain to get a third. in a day that was symbolic yet simple for the americans. japan were the last team other than the usa to win the world cup and they made an impressive start in hamilton against zambia. the team are in the rhythm. this was the zambians first women's cup and they were caught out repeatedly after the break. it ended up 5—0.
6:38 pm
the match between england's next two opponents, denmark and china, produced little of note until it was snatched at the last foot of the world's most isolated city, we had to go a long way to find a winner. so no real upsets from today's games, but earlier, i wasjoined byjonas eidevall, the arsenal women's manager, with several of his team appearing at this world cup. he's commentating on some of the matches for the bbc. he told me he was impressed by the standard in australia and new zealand and what more is to come. i think it is the collective performance that has impressed me. i mean, both japan and performance that has impressed me. i mean, bothjapan and spain, i think, have been brilliant on the ball and really played some really good football. short passes, some really nice combination play on the final third but also a team like new zealand that was probably one of the biggest underdogs in their opening game against norway. the collective
6:39 pm
display and playing together in defence, that has been really, really nice to see. i'd like you said japan were really nice side. yeah, i think, said japan were really nice side. yeah, ithink, japan, to said japan were really nice side. yeah, i think, japan, to world cup finals before they won it but they sort of came a little bit under the radar but their display today i thought was phenomenal. the way they pass the ball, they stick together as a team and even a defence i think really aggressively and compact as well so i think it made a real statement that they will be one of the contenders in this year's tournaments.— the contenders in this year's tournaments. ., ., , tournaments. perhaps not as many coals as tournaments. perhaps not as many goals as they — tournaments. perhaps not as many goals as they would _ tournaments. perhaps not as many goals as they would have _ tournaments. perhaps not as many goals as they would have liked. - tournaments. perhaps not as many goals as they would have liked. i i goals as they would have liked. i think the us has really talented players but there is a lot of tournament debutants for them and i don't think you should underestimate that fact and the pressure that comes with playing for the usa. i think the most important thing for them was to get off to a decent start and get three points and then
6:40 pm
start and get three points and then start growing into the tournament. in terms of england's performance, the european champions, a bit of a struggle against haiti. a bit of a disappointment for them? the most important thing was that they won and i mean you can never neglect that in football. then i think, when you've seen some of the football that they have been playing, like last year, in the euros and even after that, they have been doing better performances than they did today. they have moved the ball better, they have had much more quality on the final third, they haven't given away the possession so easily that they did today and they suffered counterattacks but i think it is the same for them as for the us. they also have a couple of new players, they have some new
6:41 pm
constellations in the team due to injuries or absences so this will also be a good opportunity for them to grow into the tournament. we've got some big teams yet to play. sweden, france, germany, brazil, lots of excitement ahead for that. that is one of the most exciting things with this tournament that is potentially seven or eight different nations that possibly can win so far, we've seen some really, really good performances but it would be really interesting to see these eight nations now entering the tournament. england's cricketers feared the worst ahead of the fourth day of the fourth ashes test with australia, with heavy rain forecast for most of the day. but in the couple of valuable hours play this afternoon, they managed to take a crucial wicket, before the weather again halted matters. so much riding on their series hopes, and the clouds at old trafford tomorrow, asjoe wilson reports. this was expected. it was not wanted but guess what? against many expectations, the rain stopped. 2:a5pm and those were cricketers at old trafford ready there and ready there. england resumed their search for a six wickets to stay in the

ashes. shan�*t brush the lingering clouds and fell just ashes. shan�*t brush the lingering clouds and felljust beyond the spending alley. if the crowd could well allocate they were putting everything they could into it. a chilly afternoon, sensible outfit. now, england's captain and urgent discussions. the empire's and sam as the light. too gloomy for their batters. hopefully they could see the ball coming in that grandstand. and he was seen celebrating his hundredth. had the rain relented just for australia to enjoy the day? hold on. is that out? it is a catch. did it catch that about? well, there is your evidence. 0n review, yes, australia were five down, the game is on. and a finger tip or two away
6:43 pm
from a brilliant catch there. the players took their interval tea. australia 21a—5. the match paused for a vein. be frustrated for this, well, be grateful we have had any play at all today. even standing here tucked away behind the stadium at old trafford it is impossible to miss the drizzle and a reminder of the situation when play was halted for the day. australia still 61 runs behind in their second innings. five wickets down. now, england, iguess, the institute their way forward today that they will be relieved that they had two players to bowl. now, if there was a full day of play to look forward to on the fifth and final day tomorrow i am sure england would be absolutely confident of completing a victory but the issue tomorrow morning will be the same issue as we had today. how much play
