the moon ends in failure. welcome, thank you for watching bbc news. we start in australia, where the spanish women's football team are celebrating, following their 1—0 victory over england in a gripping world cup final. there was jubilation among the spanish players as they lifted the trophy, crowned champions for the first time. they were joined by spain's queen letizia, who was in sydney for the match with her teenage daughter. in spain itself, this was the reaction at the fanzone in madrid as the whistle was blown at full time. let's hear the thoughts of some of the spanish fans watching. translation: this is for women's football, for women's history. - they deserve it. we must keep pushing and giving visibility. translation: it's a double success.

we managed to be world champions, but this is going to motivate a lot of young women to play football and other sports. it's wonderful. translation: i've been playing football since i was little. - i feel like i was them. i wish i was there to celebrate. it's so exciting. the only goal of the game came from the spanish captain olga carmona, who slotted the winner past goalkeeper mary earps in the first half. it means england's wait to win a first women's world cup title goes on. in london, there were tears, hugs and disappointment for the lionesses, who were looking to become the first england senior side since the men's team in 1966 to win the world cup. in a statement, king charles said... the tournament has broken attendance and tv records and raised hopes of a surge in interest

for the women's game around the world. well, the bbc�*s shaimaa khalil was watching in sydney. spain's fans are still processing that momentous achievement by their team. i was looking at them as they watched la roja lift that world cup trophy, and you could see the emotions. some had tears in their eyes. a little boy told me, "i just actually cannot believe "that this has happened." this is a team that has been through so much turmoil off the pitch. so much disagreement between coach and players, and yet, they've come through and gotten better in that tournament, and here they are, world champions. new world champions, that is. their name, a new name is now etched on that world cup trophy. this fan zone has been the hub of so many emotions throughout the tournament. huge heartbreaks, achievements, triumphs and celebrations, nail—biting penalty shoot outs that we have lived through, upsets that nobody expected. often, the england fans

were outnumbered here, but today, they actually had a strong presence. you could hear the cheers and the jeers for the lionesses. they leave here disappointed. this is not the night they wanted, and yet, they are very proud of their team. this is a tournament that has changed the game for women's sport, and for women's football. you can see kids now with jerseys of the players. they have now become household names. and the hope is that this will now gain momentum for more investment in women's football and women's sport. it's spain's first women's world cup, victoryjoining only four other nations who've lifted the trophy, since the tournament began in 1991. jenny hill reports now from madrid. they dared to hope... ..and they got their dream. history made and a moment to savour.

"we've won at last", he says. her words — "history, history, finally." well, you can seejust how thrilled they are. you know, there are so many young people here. and for many, this is a moment which they'll remember for the rest of their lives. even the queen of spain couldn't contain her excitement, celebrating with the squad. their victory — all the sweeter after months of a very public falling out between coach and players. and back home, this win matters. spain's football—mad, but the men tend to steal the show. translation: the women are as good as the men. i they make the same effort. we should give them more support. they give us the same joy. it's a beginning,

but we are winning. more people are interested. today's the day that women can finally get the spot that they deserve. revelling in their triumph and hoping the spoils of victory extend far beyond the pitch. jenny hill, bbc news, madrid. earlier i spoke to our reporter, sergi forcada freixas, who is in the main square in madrid as the city returns to normal after the win. spanish fans have been celebrating, with passion, their team's victory for a few hours. but now, things are back to normal here in madrid. at least, until the winning team returns from australia with the trophy. a first world cup for the women's team. the squad will fly from sydney to madrid in the next few hours. we are told that there will be a celebration cake on board, and the plane is expected to land here late on monday. what is still unclear for now is whether there will be a winner's parade or not.

there was one in 2010, when the men's team won the world cup, but local authorities haven't announced any plans yet. after this victory, spain now have women's world titles at senior, and also at under—17 and under—20 levels. and the hope for many here is that this new title will be a turning point for women's football, that it will help professional players to get more attention and more investment, and that it also will mean that girls who enjoy football have players to look up to. ecuador is choosing a new president after a campaign marred by the assassination of one of the candidates. the authorities have deployed more than a hundred thousand police and soldiers to protect the vote. our south america correspondent, katy watson, has been giving us the latest from the capital, quito. yes, i was talking to a coloneljust

now who says they had been deployed to voting centres from week, normally it would be over the weekend but they have had to beef up security, when we entered one of the voting centres, they were checking our bags, checking everybody coming in, so certainly, there is that increased presence of police, and military personnel, here in kit toe and on the coast in places, certainly that is even more security there because those are the areas that have been particularly hard hit because of violence and increased organised crime over the past few years, so that is something they are taking seriously in this vote today. polls close shortly and the real hard work begins for whoever is successful as a result of this election, considering the rise of violence, considering the political assassinations, there has not been just one, there has been several in the course of the campaign s there the course of the campaign s there

the political will to get ecuador beyond the situation that it currently finds itself in? well, it a lona currently finds itself in? well, it a long process. _ currently finds itself in? well, it a long process, first _ currently finds itself in? well, it a long process, first of- currently finds itself in? well, it a long process, first of all, - currently finds itself in? well, it | a long process, first of all, these elections are called early, after the current president dissolved the national assembly because he was trying to avoid an impeachment vote so the person voted in will only be ruling for 18 months so some, people feel what can be done in that time? these are the first round of election so it is looking unlikely that any candidate will win enough, they have to win either 50% of the vote or 40% of the vote with a lead other 10%, so it doesn't, speaking to people here, they don't expect this to not go through to a second round, that would take place later in october. that means a, there a lot of doubts over how exactly things can be tackled when it comes to crime, given the drugs cartels seem to be so strong at the moment

here, in ecuador, people really doubting what politics can achieve, but certainly speaking to people who have opinion voting out today they feel it is very much part of their duty hand is something they feel strongly about to make for a better ecuador. , . ., , ecuador. the president called this sna oll ecuador. the president called this snap poll to _ ecuador. the president called this snap poll to try — ecuador. the president called this snap poll to try and _ ecuador. the president called this snap poll to try and avoid - snap poll to try and avoid impeachment, is there any indication, it depends who wins this poll as to what might happen with regards to that process? weill. poll as to what might happen with regards to that process?— regards to that process? well, i mean everybody _ regards to that process? well, i mean everybody is _ regards to that process? well, i mean everybody is looking, - regards to that process? well, i mean everybody is looking, hel regards to that process? well, i i mean everybody is looking, he not standing so the impeachment process has been, has been pulled because of the, because he dissolved the national assembly, so moving on, it would be, you know, exactly what happens with the next president who takes, who takes office. i mean, it has been particularly messy politics over the last year or so, it has been a difficult few years for ecuador, it was hit very badly by the pandemic, corrupt politics over the pandemic, corrupt politics over the last few year, all of these

things have added to the woes of ecuador, and speaking to the candidates on the campaign trail, thatis candidates on the campaign trail, that is something they want to change, they want to change, give more opportunities to ecuadorian, one candidate explains if you don't give opportunities to ecuadorian, thatis give opportunities to ecuadorian, that is giving easierjobs to cartels who can pay, you know, a great sum of money to get people on their side, that is something ecuador is struggling with, trying to give people here opportunities and mexico's northwestern coast has been hit by high winds and heavy rains as storm hilary makes landfall. there's been flooding in santa rosalia in the baja california region. some houses have been submerged. elsewhere, there have been landslides. the tropical storm is expected to cross into the us state of california on sunday. forecasters have warned it could dump 25 centimetres of rain that's a year's worth in southern california and southern nevada. there's already been heavy rainfall in las vegas.

live now to our correspondent in los angeles, peter bowes. like we say, the storm due to track through california, passing los angeles, what is the situation at the moment?— angeles, what is the situation at the moment? ~ , ., ., , the moment? well, the storm in many resects the moment? well, the storm in many respects has — the moment? well, the storm in many respects has already _ the moment? well, the storm in many respects has already arrived _ the moment? well, the storm in many respects has already arrived in - the moment? well, the storm in many respects has already arrived in los - respects has already arrived in los angeles, we have had torrential rain here, for the last few hours, so, that shows that this is a storm that as the authorities have been warning everyone in this city, a storm that is packing a punch, the centre of the storm is still several hours away, working up the pacific coast but the fact we have had this rain already, and i am in the northern part of los angeles, it shows that there a lot of rain to come when it heads north through the city, and perhaps even affecting neighbouring states as well, and i think people are bracing for that but probably not for several hours to come, people making a lot of preparations here, those people living near hill

sides, that might have been burned in wild fires over recent month, doing everything they can, to shore up doing everything they can, to shore up those hills, so that when this vast quantity of rain comes in a relatively short space of time, that those hill sides are not vulnerable. it is a testament to our changing climate peter, because we have talked on many occasions about wild fires, droughts in the region, decades long, reductions in rainfall and now this year, we have talked about record levels of snow and now potentially a year's worth of rah inin a short period of time. how is the region responding, being able to cope with this changing climate now? well, it is perplexing to a lot of people, here we are in august, i have lived here for more than 25 year, i can't remember a year when there has been any rain in august, this is a freak event though, and you can't necessarily correlate what is happening with the course of this

hurricane with climate change, yes there are tangible change, the ocean is warmer than usual, a bit further south, of mexico, the ocean temperatures off california, are about the same, and they affect how about the same, and they affect how a hurricane moves through a region, normally something like this, a hurricane would in effect be blown out to the ocean, and we wouldn't feel the effects here on land, so things are clearly very different and people are just having to adapt, to these very different situations, it is still the wild fire threat, if you want to talk about climate change, that probably is the biggest problem still facing this state, these very intense look at what is happening in canada, the very intense wild fires that we get here this is an event, this storm that is passing through, it is something that will last for about 2k hours. thank you, we will follow the development thank you, we will follow the development of storm hilary now it's time for a look at today's sport. hello from the bbc sport centre. it's being described as a win that could supercharge

women's football in spain. the celebrations continue after they beat england to win the world cup in sydney. a result all the more remarkable when you consider spanish coachjorge vilda survived a player revolt less than 12 months with continuing tensions in his side country is celebrating its first win. but spain were outstanding on the pitch on sunday, outclassing england for most of the game, and this proved to be the winning moment from captain olga carmona. and spain could have won by more. awarded a penalty for handball, jeni hermoso's spot kick was saved by mary earps. it meant the final chapter of the game was tense. but england couldn't find a way back despite 13 minutes of injury time at the end, and spain were eventually able to celebrate a famous win in what is only their third appearance in the tournament. justis just is incredible to be champions of the world, it is something that i think anyone could dream of ijust wanted to share it with my family.

we know their qualities, we have a really— we know their qualities, we have a really good — we know their qualities, we have a really good team, that is why we have _ really good team, that is why we have been— really good team, that is why we have been doing a lot of work, but we were _ have been doing a lot of work, but we were confident in ourself, and finally— we were confident in ourself, and finally we — we were confident in ourself, and finally we showed the world how we can play. _ finally we showed the world how we can play, and how it is. of_ can play, and how it is. of course everyone was very disappointed that we didn't win the game, at the other hand, i think we can be very proud of ourselves, only it doesn't feel that way at the moment, that takes a bit of time because now the most, yeah, the disappointment is the most what you feel. but everything we have done, how we have grown into the tournament, the challenges we had before the tournament, during the tournament, how we have adapted to situations, and we have given everything what we could, in this tournament and also in this game. disappointment for sarina wiegman as another world cup final ends defeat for her. to the world athletics championships

in budapest where plenty of medals were up for grabs on the second day of competition including the blue ribband event — the men's1oo metres. it was won by noah lyles of the united states for his first victory over the distance, the two—time world champion in the 200 metres pulled away to cross in a personal best of 9.83 seconds. letsile tebogo took the silver while zarnel hughes of great britain won bronze. joshua cheptegei is the fourth man in history to win three successive world 10,000 metres, the ugandan taking the title, with daniel ebenyo of kenya second and ethiopia's selemon barega winning bronze. cheptegei joins ethiopian duo haile gebrselassie and kenenisa bekele, and britain's mo farah in winning three successive 10,000m titles. britain's katarina johnson—thompson has won gold in the heptathlon, making a remarkable come back from a ruptured achilles tendon. she finished second in the 800 metres — the gruelling final event of the seven—discipline competition, which was enough to take gold and that crown.

next to the english premier league, where big spenders chelsea have been beaten by a west ham side that played the last half an hour with ten men at the london stadium. david moyes condemning mauricio pochettino to defeat injust his second game in charge. lucas paqueta exhausted at the end here, his goal wrapped up a 3—1win. disappointment for moises caceido on his debut. chelsea were level at half time, having been in control and missing a penalty. west ham had nayef agair sent off in the second half but ground out the win. chelsea with one point from their opening two games. aston villa recovered from their opening premier league thrashing at newcastle by beating everton 4—0 at villa park. that's two defeats from two for sean dyche. john duran here was among the goal—scorers for the home side. more on the bbc sport website. that is all from me for now. russia's luna—25 space craft has crashed into the moon after spinning into

uncontrolled orbit. that's according to russia's space agency, roscosmos. earlier it reported an "abnormal situation" as the spacecraft prepared for a pre—landing orbit. luna—25 was scheduled to land on the south pole of the moon on monday. the bbc�*s will vernon has been following the story from moscow. all we know is what roscosmos, the russian space agency, said in that statement earlier today. they said that yesterday communication was lost with luna—25, and there were attempts to made attempts were made to reestablish communication, but those attempts were unsuccessful. and the best line in the statement was, the craft ceased to exist as a result of a collision with the surface of the moon. now, when russia launched luna—25, nine days ago, it had hoped to become the first nation to land a craft on the south pole of the moon. and it planned to do that two days before india, because india also has a moon lander heading for the lunar south pole. now, russia, especially in the form

of the soviet union, used to be one of the world leaders in space exploration battling with the united states. but is it fair to say that the russian space agency has dwindled somewhat amid a lack of funding with some of that money being diverted? primarily, let's be honest, to the military for that that war in ukraine. yes, absolutely. you know, i think that russia was hoping that this mission, luna—25, would re—establish russia's position as one of the world leaders in space travel, because, after all, space for space exploration is what superpowers do. right. and vladimir putin very much sees himself sees russia as a global superpower. but i think you're right. the russian space industry has been in decline for many years now. now, why is that? partly it's because of western sanctions, right? western sanctions make it more difficult for the russian space programme to get spare parts like electronics, semiconductors, and also make it more difficult

to work with international partners. but it's also because more and more resources now are being diverted away from the civilian space programme and towards the military and towards the war in ukraine. i'm interested, considering how much of a political event this is, as well as a scientific one. how is this being reported in russia? what is the kremlin saying about this incident and what kind of spin, if any, are they trying to put on it? well, nothing from the kremlin yet, but i was watching russian state tv a little bit earlier and there was almost no mention of what happened today in space. the presenter on the rossiya one channel did mention the fact it was quite low in the bulletin. it certainly wasn't a top story. they did mention that this failure had happened, but they were very quick to emphasise kind of the scientific achievements of luna—25, before it crashed into the moon.

there was mention of kind of photographs it had taken and information it sent back to earth. but i don't think this will be a major news event in russia if the kremlin comments at all. we'll have to see in the coming days. a 10—year—old girl who was found dead in surrey in the south east of england was known to the authorities, the county council has confirmed. sara sharif�*s body was found at herfamily home in woking, in the early hours of 10th august. bbc news has been told two police teams in north punjab in pakistan, are looking for sara's father who left the uk on the ninth august. surrey county council said it would "work tirelessly" to gain a "full understanding" of the situation. ukraine's president has thanked the leaders of denmark and the netherlands for agreeing to supply f—16fighterjets and train ukrainian pilots. president zelensky climbed into an f—16 at this air force base in denmark alongside the country's prime minister. it comes after the us gave the green

light to send us made f—16s to kyiv. the danish prime minister, mette frederiksen, gave a timetable for the delivery of f—16s. well, the screening is going on now. the training will soon be starting, and hopefully, around new year, the first group of planes will be leaving denmark, going to ukraine, around six. and then, hopefully, next year, eight more planes are leaving denmark for ukraine. and then, the year after, five planes. the great british summer may have been a disappointment in terms of weather but all the rain that's lashed the country has had a great effect on english vineyards. ellie crisell reports from west sussex. the english wine industry has grown and grown, with sussex home to the most vineyards. the grapes may be baking in sunshine today, but the last month has told a different story.

can our unpredictable weather really sustain this industry? it's really getting from spring to harvest — that's the challenge. so this year's a perfect example of we had a great start to the year — so great spring, we had great fruit set — as you can see, we have lots of berries in the vineyard — but we just haven't had the sun in the last month or so. and this is our challenge. every yea r�*s different, and when we think we're past one hurdle, there's something else that jumps out at us! for a crop that depends on consistently good weather, it certainly seems a gamble to grow in the uk, but for many estates, that gamble is paying off — with wine tourism big business. i think we're seeing england and the uk generally sort of follow that sort of trend that we've seen in napa, which is to have a really lovely cafe, shop, restaurant on site. we've seen tourists,

local community come and visit us and drink great coffee as well as great wine down on site with us. i also think there's a little bit that, sort of post—covid, consumers wanting to drink, eat locally and feel part of a local community. this year, we're still optimistic. we've avoided a lot of the hurdles for producing grapes this year, so we've avoided the frost, we've avoided... we've had great fruit set. the vines look very healthy. but now we need sun — that's the bottom line. the uk's wine industry has only been able to bear fruit as global warming has increased temperatures. but along with that come extreme events and even less predictability — leaving winemakers anxiously watching the weather. my my cup of tea doesn't seem so good any more. plenty more on the bbc and

app. plenty more stories with us on bbc news, do stay with hello there. we had some lovely spells of sunshine through much of england and wales on sunday, a little more cloud at times through scotland and northern ireland with a few showers. and as we head through the course of sunday evening and sunday night, some clear skies with light winds through england. we'll see some low cloud, mist and fog developing through southern counties. more of a wind around parts of west wales, in towards the west of scotland, northern ireland. and, actually, that means temperatures here holding in the mid—teens. cooler elsewhere with light winds and clear skies. for the week ahead, we've got low pressure to the north—west, high pressure to the south—east, and that set up sticking with us for a few days. what it means is that, actually, through parts of scotland and northern ireland, cloudier skies with some showers or rain at times. the driest, warmest weather likely through central

and south—east england, and then a cooling trend for all by thursday and certainly friday. first thing on monday, we've got that mist and low cloud lifting fairly smartly and then plenty of sunshine for england and wales. a few showers at times across parts of wales and the north of england. through scotland and northern ireland, sunny spells and a few showers. more of a breeze here as well from the south or south—west and heavier rain pushing in towards the highlands and islands. in the best of the sunshine, though, through parts of central, southern and eastern england, temperatures reaching the mid—20s. cooler elsewhere. this is tuesday now, and some heavy downpours across parts of the west and north—west of scotland, with low pressure once again towards the far north and north—west. elsewhere, some sunshine, and in the best of the sunshine through parts of central and south—east england, reaching 25 degrees once again, but cooler elsewhere. and certainly looking ahead towards midweek now, we still have low pressure to the north, high pressure to the south—east, but this feature here bringing some showery outbreaks of rain through parts of wales

and into the midlands. if you're south of that line, still largely dry and fine, perhaps a few showers in towards east anglia. north of here, sunny spells and a number of showers, heaviest across parts of the west and north—west of scotland. temperatures again in the sunshine reaching the mid—20s, cooler and fresher elsewhere. more like mid to high teens, probably, at best. and for the end of the week, well, low pressure becoming the dominant feature across the uk, so staying unsettled across the north, drier in the south. but, actually, that warmer weather we've had being pushed back to the near continent. that's the forecast for now.

this is bbc news — the headlines... spanish football fans have been celebrating their team's victory in the final of the women's world cup in australia. they beat england 1—0 in a closely—fought final in sydney — to win the trophy for the first time. hundreds of millions of people watched the match on television. it was a hugely disappointing result for england's lionesses — who were also hoping for their first ever world cup win. messages of sympathy have poured in for the team. king charles said england's "place was set in the history books" — while rishi sunak described them as game—changers. ecuador is choosing a new president after a campaign marred by violence — including the assassination of one of the candidates. police and soldiers have been deployed to safeguard the vote.

the snap poll was called after the president dissolved parliament in an attempt to avoid being impeached. now on bbc news... take me to the opera: a time of change. i've been an opera fan for decades, and i want to share my passion with you. so i'm on a mission to find out how opera is trying to attract new audiences and reinvent itself. this time i meet sir antonio pappano in the run—up to the end of his remarkable tenure as music director of the royal opera house in london, one of the top jobs in opera. as a celebrated conductor, he wins praise and plaudits for his style and brilliance. he wants to smell every

little new idea that comes up, every glimpse.
