hello and welcome to sportsday. it's been a memorable day at the women's world cup for debutants the philipines, who got a famous victory over the co—hosts new zealand. norway suffered a blow losing star player ada hegerberg just before kick—off in their match against switzerland, while columbia gotjust their second ever world cup win, beating south korea. it has been a dream of mine to appear at the world cup, let alone score. i couldn't have done it

without my team—mates, the staff, the fans, the philippines as a whole. it is amazing right now to feel the energy in the stadium. it is just amazing. it is exciting and it can be heartbreaking, tonight it was heartbreaking, tonight it was heartbreaking, i could see tears in our eyes, — heartbreaking, i could see tears in our eyes, on — heartbreaking, i could see tears in our eyes, on our player, i know how much _ our eyes, on our player, i know how much it_ our eyes, on our player, i know how much it means for them to be here, and to— much it means for them to be here, and to play— much it means for them to be here, and to play in— much it means for them to be here, and to play in front of their friends _ and to play in front of their friends and families and fan, so it is heartbreaking but this is not over_ is heartbreaking but this is not over yet — over yet. we - over yet. we have still one game yet. — we have still one game to go, and we still have _ we have still one game to go, and we still have time to vet, and refocus, and get _ still have time to vet, and refocus, and get ready for if game against switzerland. new zealand's final game will be against switzerland who drew with norway, norway suffered a huge blow

when one of their players picked up an injury, switzerland top the group 678 norway are bottom with just one. colombia got their world cup off to a perfect start with a win over south korea. the first from the penalty spot, the second scored by an 18—year—old. that was enough to give colombia only their second win at a world cup. . translation: i at a world cup. . translation: ., ., , ,, ., translation: i am happy and file the team wanted — translation: i am happy and file the team wanted this, _ translation: i am happy and file the team wanted this, we _ translation: i am happy and file the team wanted this, we had _ translation: i am happy and file the team wanted this, we had a _ translation: i am happy and file the team wanted this, we had a little - team wanted this, we had a little anxiety ahead of the game. file starting with that victory we are on the right foot. it give us confidence and that positive energy we need to continue facing the world cup. it was a brilliant british one two at the aquatic championships in scrap. matt richards got the gold in the freestyle with tom dean claiming the freestyle with tom dean claiming the silver. they are great britain's first medals in the swimming. richards swam a lifetime best and

produced an outstanding 50 to pip dean to the gold. the final test of what has been an enthralling ashes gets under way at the oval on thursday. england were in charge at old trafford in the fourth test before the rain in manchester scuppered their chances of winning it and regaining the famous urn. they are now looking to at least draw the series, but there's no hiding their disapointment. it is a shame. like i said many times now, that the weather has ruined it for us. we would have been very confident going into this game had it been 2—2, and they could have been a little bit different going into this game, so it is a shame, but it has happened. momentum has shifted so much between each test match, notjust the series, so to say that it seems, more momentum going into this test match, it is ebbed and flowed throughout. we need to gain momentum back if they feel they've got momentum from this week. like we have seen throughout this whole series, momentum can shift the other way pretty quickly.

you can keep up—to—date with the sport on the website. we will see you later. here in the uk the number of people living in temporary accommodation has hit a record high. the latest official data shows that at the end of march nearly 105,000 households were in temporary accommodation and in need of help with housing, from their local council. that includes a record 131,000 children. they are the highest figure since records began 25 years ago. as our social affairs correspondent reports. my my old room was barreling i could do stuff in like i would usually like, draw a picture,

foreign minister, has been removed from office, and are eplaced by the communist party's senior foreign affairs official, someone who has done thejob before, of foreign minister, but i say it is enormous new, but it was delivered with little fanfare, just a couple of lines from the wire service, which were read out on the 7pm evening news bulletin, just calm of sentence, no explanation, but you know, previously about a month ago, when he disappeared from his normal duty, the official reason given was health concerns, some sort of unspecified health problems, slowly people started to wonder as the weeks went on and he wasn't reappearing could it be more of a political thing and there has been speculation on social media and the like that it is because of an alleged affair he is said to have had with a tv anchor, that wouldn't be against the law here, but it

could be construed to be against party discipline rules, now, if you were to combine that with say, another grouping within the party that wanted to get him, and they were going to use that as an excuse, well, it could be used to sort of move him to one side, especially given that he was seen as very close to xijinping. this is given that he was seen as very close to xi jinping. this is the given that he was seen as very close to xijinping. this is the most surprising thing, he was a rising star, coming through the party a year ago, xi star, coming through the party a yearago, xijinping star, coming through the party a year ago, xijinping made star, coming through the party a yearago, xijinping made his foreign minister and to have him so swiftly, suddenly removed, given that he was seen as an acolyte of xi jinping's, it is remarkable. that he was seen as an acolyte of xi jinping's, it is remarkable.— jinping's, it is remarkable. now, it has been a — jinping's, it is remarkable. now, it has been a day _ jinping's, it is remarkable. now, it has been a day since _ jinping's, it is remarkable. now, it has been a day since elon - jinping's, it is remarkable. now, it has been a day since elon musk i has been a day since elon musk launched his rebranded twitter, he took away the bluebird, replaced it with a black—and—white x. here is the official moment that marked that big switch. the symbol being shone

on to the twitter offences in san francisco, the keener might notice that the old logo was still in place on the wall, that, though is now being changed. workers are removing it. the first person to adopt the new x was elon musk, here is his new twitter page, but the plot thicken, that work to remove the old logo was stopped the after san francisco police were called to the scene, to respond to reports of a possible unpermitted street closure, apparently the owners of the building were not told the sign was going to be removed. matthew will be here with the headlines at the top of the hour. stay with us here on het low, the weather will remain

unsettled, and i windy by time get to the weekend. today is no exception, sunny spells and scattered showers sums is it up nicely t showers heavy in scotland, and later north east england but they are quite well scattered, we won't all catch one and in between there will be sunshine, we are pulling in this keen north—westerly breeze, which will accentuate the cooler feel to the day. temperatures this afternoon ranging from 13 in the north, to 21 in the south, so just a bit below average for the time of year. as we head on through the evening and overnight there be showers, the weather front sinking south will pep up in south—west scotland and northern england. 0n either side we are looking at clear skies, chilly in sheltered glen, overnight lows three or four degrees, towns and cities we are looking at 7—12 tomorrow we have this weather front, a warm front coming our way, we have a ridge of

high pressure, behind it we will be in muggier condition, the weather front will bring us rain as well. so we start with our overnight showers, there be clear skies, sunshine, but there be clear skies, sunshine, but the cloud will won't to build and in comes the rain, the wind will have changed direction and we are looking at temperatures 14—23 but along side this rain will follow the muggy conditions. so as we move from wednesday into thursday, there go the weather fronts crossing the uk, we have the remnants of them in the the england channel, so here we will hang on the rain, we start with a lot of cloud, and murky conditions, especially so on the coasts and hills but through the day, we should see a little bit of brightness breakthrough but it will feel muggy, temperatures 15—23 degrees. and then beyond that, the unsettled theme continues. so as we head through

friday into saturday, we will have shower, some heavy, potentially thundery, especially so across the north of the country and then we have a windy weekend with some rain coming our
