hands on an individual trophy. the real madrid and brazil forward been named the men's player of the year at the fifa best awards. vinicius played a key role in real�*s champions league and la liga—winning campaign last season, scoring 2a goals and providing 11 assists. and for a second year in a row, barcelona midfielder aitana bonmati has been named the women's player of the year. she was a key part of the spain team that won the 2023 women's world cup, and won the golden ball award for the best player in the tournament. bonmati also won the ballon d'or earlier this year. chelsea's mykhailo mudryk says he is in "complete shock" after testing positive for a banned substance. he's been provisionally suspended, after the premier league club were contacted by the football association to say there'd been an "adverse finding in a routine urine

test". mudryk denies knowingly using any banned substance. chelsea women's remarkable season goes on after yet another victory — but it wasn't completely straightforward. they did trail to real madrid in theirfinal group game of the women's champions league — but two goals from catarina macario saw chelsea win 2—1 — and made sure they topped the group with six wins from six. the victory also means they're yet to lose this season in all competitons — 16 matches and counting. right now, group a is underway — with 8—time champions lyon looking to also finish with a 100 per cent record. they're up against wolfsburg. 0—0 nothing riding on the roma — galatasaray match, the italian side are guaranteed to finish in third spot, while the turkish giants will finish bottom regardless of the result. to cricket and england captain ben stokes admits his side simply weren't good enough in the final test against new zealand. resuming on 18—2 and needing another 640 runs to win, england needed a miracle in hamilton — and it never looked like materialising.

they lost wickets at regular intervals and were eventually bowled out for 234 — giving the home side a huge 423 run win. england win the series though 2—1. we just wejust didn't we just didn't play anyone in their capabilities and it's disappointing to end the tour and in the year with a loss but we came to achieve what we achieved and coming to new zealand and beating them as a strong team. the victory for new zealand also meant that tim southee finished his career with a win before retiring. he'll finish as new zealand's second—highest test wicket—taker and he was good with the bat too — the 98 sixes he hit is bettered by only three men. every opportunity to play for new zealand is been a special moment and have been very fortunate to do it which not a lot of people get to do and i'm very honoured and very privileged to have done it and fulfilled the childhood dream

and i've loved every moment of it, the ups and downs a part of the journey and that's what makes you the person that you become. meanwhile england's women have won theirfirst test match in a decade. starting the day with a lead of 145, england were bowled out for 281 on day four of their match against south africa — setting their opponents 351 to win. and the home side didn't even reach triple figures, bowled out for 64 — their lowest test total — as england secured a 286 run victory in bloemfontein. england's attention will now turn to january — and their ashes series against australia down under. slightly different with the pink ball in different conditions and will have to adapt as we see fit and the fact that we are able to do this is going to this preparation after the series should be of bit of confidence for us and does that mentality,

to be able to flow between us is hard thing to do and yet, just getting more experience in doing that is close, hopefully the really good. doing that is close, hopefully it'll be really good. and that's all the sport for now. indicted the graduate luigi who you will remember is accused of murdering united health care ceo brian thompson. accused of first—degree murder and second—degree murder is chilling killing is an act of terror. let's listen. police commissioner _ terror. let's listen. police commissionerjessica - terror. let's listen. police i commissionerjessica tisch. commissionerjessica tisch. first and foremost, i want to extend my deepest condolences to mr thompson's loved ones and colleagues. his family deserves our respects if they continue to grieve, our work will never be able to undo the fact that a

criminal possession of weapon. so, that process in new york now under way. here in the uk. another sentencing today. the father and stepmother of 10 year old sara sharif have been sentenced to life in prison for her murder. urfan sharif was given a minimum term of 40 years, beinash batool 33 years. sara's uncle, faisal malik, was jailed for 16 years for causing or allowing the death of a child. during the sentencing hearing, the judge described sara as suffering a �*campaign of torture' which took place in plain sight. here's our uk correspondent daniel sandford — and a warning his report contains distressing details. # i close my eyes, i open them to see...# sara sharif�*s friends and teachers will always remember herfor her love of singing and her sparky personality. but in august last year, aged just ten, she was brutally beaten to death in her own home. tortured, the judge said.

sara's death was the culmination of years of neglect, frequent assaults and what can only be described as the torture of this small child. i think you're looking for us... her torturers, herfather urfan sharif and stepmother beinash batool, were arrested on a flight back from pakistan after 36 days on the run. last week, both were found guilty of murder. today, the judge sentenced them to life, with minimum terms in prison of 40 years and 33 years. sara sharif had been known to social services since before she was born. she was twice in foster care before the age of three because of violence in the home, and social workers had considered taking her into care permanently. she ended up living with her mother until there were new allegations of violence by her. aged six, she returned to live with her father and stepmother, but the violence immediately started again in her new home.

in police interviews after their arrests, her killers said nothing. do you love sara? no comment. did you care about her at all? no comment. sara's body was found by police at her home in woking after her family had all fled. her injuries included being burnt by an iron, scalded by hot water and being bitten by her stepmother. police went there after receiving this call from her father. my daughter's dead! who has killed your daughter? it's me. he had beaten her with a cricket bat and a metal pole, leaving her with more than 25 broken bones sustained over several weeks and a serious brain injury. five months before she was killed, sara's school saw bruising on herface. social services asked teachers to monitor her, but soon afterwards, her parents just removed her from school. it's unusual forjudges to pass

comment on matters of public policy when passing a sentence, but today mrjustice cavanagh went out of his way to express his disquiet about a child about whom there were welfare concerns being taken out of school to be home—schooled. this case brings into sharp relief the dangers of unsupervised home schooling of vulnerable children. it is a matter of concern that parents who are abusing or who have malign intent towards their children appear to be able to home—school more or less at will and without supervision. neighbours held a vigil this weekend for a little girl who wanted to win x factor but will instead be remembered for the brutal way she was killed. an independent review will now examine why surrey county council, the family court, the police and her school were unable to prevent her death. daniel sandford, bbc news at the old bailey.

pope francis has revealed in his forthcoming autobiography, that he was targeted by suicide bombers during his visit to iraq but was saved by a tip off from british intelligence. the attacks were planned in 2021 during his visit to mosul, where iraqi christians had been killed or driven out by islamic state fighters. according to the intelligence, a woman carrying explosives was intending to blow herself up during the papal visit and a truck was also on its way with the same intent. the pope said he was told of the planned attacks as soon as he flew into iraq to start his visit, but it went ahead anyway. father benedict kiely is the founder of nasarean.org — he's a catholic priest who has worked in and visited iraq several times. excerpts from pope francis 5 autobiography say british intelligence and iraqi police foiled two suicide bomb plots during the visit in 2021.

the biggest tech companies are scraping vast swathes of the web to gather data they say is needed to create generative ai — often with little regard for content creators, copyright laws, or privacy. they are using everything we post ? to train their large language models. but scraping without permission is a breach of copyright. google among others has been pushing the uk to overhaul the law in such a way that it would allow companies to freely mine other publishers content for commercial gain. today the government began a 10 week consultation which aims to improve trust and transparency between the ai companies and the content providors. but there is concern they are considering a carve out in copyright law that will favour big tech, over the creative industries.

i'm joined now by ed newton—rex, ceo of fairly trained, a non—profit that certifies ai companies for fairer training data sourcing — and aarti samani, ceo of shreem growth partners, an ai strategy consulting firm. what are your concerns about this consultation, the speed with which it's being done over the christmas break in with the government is considering? thank you. the government wants to introduce it is clear that he wants to introduce a copyright exception that will allow ai companies to train models on copy written work without a licence and this was, this would hand the lives work of the uk possible is creators to ai companies for free and letting them build highly scalable competitors to those creators and i think this would be the most damaging legislature for creators in the uk in decades.— legislature for creators in the uk in decades. the government sa s it uk in decades. the government says it wants — uk in decades. the government says it wants to _ uk in decades. the government says it wants to find _ uk in decades. the government says it wants to find a _ uk in decades. the government says it wants to find a fairer- says it wants to find a fairer system and what i understand from people who are privy to this consultation, they're
