hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm hugh ferris. our top stories. portugal's penalty shoot out win. they beat slovenia to spare ronaldo�*s blushes as he misses one in extra time. back at wimbledon and winning again. defending champion carlos alcaraz is one of those through on day one. but will andy murray play in his swansong? we still don't know with his first round match a matter of hours away.
2:46 am
hello again. portugal have their goalkeeper diogo costa to thank for taking them into the european championship quarter finals. he was perfect in the penalty shoot out against slovenia who forced spot kicks partly because cristiano ronaldo missed one in extra time. but portugal are through to face france in the last eight in germany with one of the pre—tournament favourites needing an own goal in the 85th minute to overcome belgium as jane dougall reports. for those who have followed the premier league, some familiarfaces in the belgian line—up. for france, there was one in the stands. former manchester united player paul pogba, who is appealing a four—year ban for a doping offence. he almost saw his french keeper embarrassed. kevin de bruyne�*s free kick saved. sort of. much has been made of kylian mbappe�*s skills, dancing past defenders... that would have been special!
2:47 am
perhaps his protective mask had obscured the path to goal. could belgium take advantage of france's recent lack of form? not quite. there was nothing between the two sides until late on. and france lead! and it is a cruel blow for belgium! france finally found the target, albeit via a deflection. they are through to the quarterfinals. but who would meet them? it was always going to be the cristiano ronaldo show in portugal's game against slovenia. the 39—year—old desperate to score, but his free kicks were not getting through, or strikes from open play, or even from a penalty. itjust will not happen! tears as he felt his country's chances slip away. still goalless after extra time, so up stepped ronaldo again for the first penalty. and this time he didn't miss.
2:48 am
portugal's goalkeeper stopped three, and it was down to bernardo silva. they are through to the next round, where france are waiting. jane dougall, bbc news. on the side of the draw that is stacked with many of those countries tipped to do well. each win might gain a little extra significance and france's celebrations at the final whistle seemed to suggest that. although their manager insists it's nothing new. translation: whenever| we win any games, i think we are quite demonstrative. what i've said to my staff here is we want to savour every moment. we should appreciate every moment, nothing comes at a blink of an eye or a click of your fingers. and we are in the quarterfinals, this is an important stage for us as well. we wanted to get to qualify this evening. so it's france against portugal in the third of four quarter finals to be decided. just one more to go with tuesday's matches setting up the remaining last eight game. one of the surprise teams of the tournament austria play turkey in leipzig.

but before that, the team austria beat in their last group game. the netherlands will take on romania in munich having been one of the contenders to face some criticism so far for their performances at euro 202a. they've also lost their three most recent knockout games in the tournament. translation: you need to make up a balance and look— on what needs to improve in such a game. we are in the process of improving it, so may be the tournament can start from now. no, for real, the tournament does start for now. in that sense we have to make sure we learn from his mistakes, that means the atmosphere is good. uefa have opened an investigation into jude bellingham for a gesture the england player made following his goal in their win over slovakia. the governing body says it is looking into a "potential violation" regarding "the basic rules of decent conduct" by bellingham. who was seen making a crotch—grabbing gesture towards the slovakian bench after scoring an overhead kick in stoppage time. he says it was an inside joke

intended for close friends. meanwhile his teammate jordan pickford called bellingham england's golden boy for his dramatic late equaliser. but also admitted on monday the side need to up their game as they prepare to play switzerland in their quarter—final on saturday. to be fair, it was about getting over the line and having that resilience and mentality. that is tournament football. it is my fourth major now so you learn a lot from the past. that is what we can take into these next games. england's mary earps�* has become the highest paid women's goalkeeper in world football after her move to paris saint—germain was confirmed. she was a free agent after leaving manchester united when he contract expired this summer. earps said that she's "very honoured to become a parisian and i can't wait to play alongside my new team—mates," defending champion carlos alcaraz has won on his return to wimbledon. making the second round with a straight sets win over mark

lajal. while the new world number one jannik sinner also went through and the home crowd had a centre court victor to cheer too. chethan pathak rounds up day one. no major upsets on the opening day of these championships. we have lost the third seed, aryna sabalenka having to withdraw before her home match because of the shoulder injury. aside from that, things have gone to plan. starting on centre court with the men's defending champion, carlos alcaraz. he was taking on fellow 21—year—old mark lyal, playing the match of his life took alcaraz into the first two sets before he found his rhythm. i didn't see him too much playing, practising and all that stuff, but i think
2:52 am
he has to grow up a lot, i'm sure that i'm going to see him really soon on the tour, i'm going to play against him more, more often. but yeah, i'm really happy to get through and get my first win in the centre court this year. it's five years since naomi osaka last made it here, she's made a winning return from grandson chappy and coming through in three sets against perry on court two. after giving birth to herfirst child, osaka has been away from the sport with mental health issues and injuries, but she is in a much better place now and it shows. and the red economy says she also feels better than she has in a long time, injury and surgery kept her out of wimbledon last year, now the home favourite, a late replacement for serena alexandra both through illness. coco gauff is through to round
2:53 am
two and showed why she is one of the favourites. winning the all american title against caroline, five years on from that stunning win over venus williams as a 15—year—old. and when is for two other us open champions. as for tuesday, we're going to see novak djokovic and how he is holding up after knee surgery as he chases roger federer and we'll see the women's defending champion and the last two winners in the women's draw also in action, we'll see the woman who has lost the last two finals, ons jabeur. when andy murray said he'd give himself until the last minute to decide on whether he'll play in the singles at wimbledon. he certainly meant it. the two time champion is due to play tomas machac on tuesday after back surgeryjust last

weekend and was expected to have already announced whether or not he will take to the court. but after a practice session earlier, murray has delayed his decision until the morning. james anderson will take up a role as bowling mentor in the england set up when he retires from test cricket next week. the 41—year—old is the most successful pace bowler in the history of test cricket and will end his international playing career following the first test against against west indies after england told him they want to move on. anderson is currently playing county cricket with lancashire. although he hasn't bowled yet after day two of their match was washed out. when we spoke tojimmy initially, we did not say, this is what you are going to have to do, we gave him the option. it is something he is keen to do as well. as we speak, and he has not done loads and loads of it, but he has got, no question about his knowledge and experience within bowling, and it's been something that when we asked him, he was keen to do.
2:55 am
and then we have got a great opportunity in the rest of the summer to find outjust how much he enjoys it or doesn't enjoy it, really. someone like anderson, i think, is going to have lots of options for english cricket and would be lucky if he stays in our game. stage three of the tour de france was the longest of this year's race and the riders certainly took it easy on the first part of the 230 kilometres into turin. when the pace finally picked up it was biniam germai who crossed the line first — the eritrean taking the bunch sprint ahead of fernando gaviria and arnaud de lee. becoming the first black african to claim a stage win at the race. ecuadorian richard carapaz took the overall leader's yellow jersey from overnight leader tadej pogacar. you can get all the latest sports news at from the bbc sport app, orfrom our website — that's bbc.com/sport. there is day one of 15 wimbledon in the books. you can check that out as well.

that is it from sports day. thank you for watching. during 2023 was the hottest on record. during this year was probably working out about average because of the cold weather we had at the start of the month and get hot weather we had later on. that hot weather has gone. no sign of it returning through the rest of this week and a lot of cloud once again. rain at times, a cooler breeze blowing and temperatures below average. all the weather coming in from the atlantic as we have seen already on monday. next weather front beginning to arrive in the north—west later on. the first one should be out of the way by the morning leaving a legacy of cloud in eastern england. otherwise sunshine for a while, the cloud will build and scattering

of showers for northern areas and long spells of rain coming into western scotland and northern ireland in the afternoon. limiting temps to around 16 degrees. could make 20 around south wales and south england and it should not feel too bad. that weather system we saw early on is making progress towards the uk overnight and into wednesday. it will bring us quite a messy day on wednesday, a lot of cloud, some rain from time to time, nothing particularly intense or prolonged. may well be replaced by sunshine and showers in scotland and northern ireland during the afternoon. temperatures typically 17 degrees, quite disappointing for this time of year. still in the cooler air flow. as we head into thursday, low pressure running to the north of the uk feeding in quite strong wind for thursday and a lot of showers continuing in scotland. some for northern ireland and the far north of england further south. a better chance of staying dry and it is here we have the best
2:58 am
chance of the sunshine. with the low pressure running towards scandinavia, we see this little runner pushing in quickly from the atlantic. the position of the cloud and rain could change. it looks like it will be affecting more of england and wales with a few showers left in scotland but not as many to end the week with showers later in the day towards northern ireland. temperatures in glasgow, only 15 degrees, should be 20 at this time of year. heading into the weekend briefly, be low pressure, the weather front moving away slowly but surely. we are left with more of a north—westerly breeze to start the weekend. never particularly a good sign and still have showers, maybe long spells of rain, more for eastern scotland and eastern areas of england with the sunny skies out towards the west where pressure is a bit higher.
2:59 am
temperatures are below average for this time of year. heading further on into the weekend and into next week, the main problem at the moment is the jet stream is to the south of the uk so we are in the cooler side of the jet which is why temps are a bit disappointing. the position of the rain areas no doubt will change but the theme that still there. still rather disappointing, rather unsettled. maybe into next week temperatures could be a little bit higher but maybe i am just clutching at straws. still rather mixed weather for this time of year.
