on saturday which was national gun awareness day our correspondent alexandra phenomena reports from a march in new york. for among contreras this march is a personal issue together with his friends an average to vist a ninety year old student organized this event mens to address school shootings but also gun violence in communities of color. supports me because last year i lost friends ago and i felt you know. when i was in a moment i felt like some people are really needed to be a power when you hear about this. contrast became active in the wake of the school shooting in parkland florida earlier this year since then more and more students in the u.s. have begun to raise their voices for gun control students like jordan go in twenty twelve she survived the shooting at sandy hook elementary school in newtown connecticut. i've witnessed what not just one singular person but

to get back in the german goal that weather delayed the kickoff for nearly two hours delayed start did nothing to dull germany's alertness ms it is it pounced on a mistake from austria as keeper and put the world champs one nil. later in the first half it was neuer who was put to the test his own casual ball came back at him. and later florian bridge peppered his goal but the biome keeper was up to the test. after the break germany's play began to drop a long corner found its way to much in him to reckon applied emphatic volley finish all alone at the far post neuer didn't have a chance it would get worse for the visitors i was on your show scored to make it two one to austria who hadn't beaten germany in more than thirty years. and those now have some decisions to make not least regarding man will neuer.

mark first a heavy downpour that australia rained all over germany sprayed what went wrong for the german side but it was the perfect storm for austria wasn't really i.b.m. in that they had to lay before the game is never nice for the visiting team to be sitting in the changing room with the hail and the rain pouring down to say with that fans baying for their blood to say so that was a it was also a very experimental line up from germany i mean the likes of you who to go to nicklaus sooner and even newspapers you can fry book stuff that up front it's not even certain that he'll be on the plane to go to the world cup so it was a second string unfairly a very motivated opponent in austria and they were desperate for their first win over germany since one thousand nine hundred six and they got it they got it and manual noir was in the lineup his first game back since breaking has fought how to be fair he was germany's best player i mean he's an incredible guy really i mean he's not been there been in the team or played football at all for bias and says in september brooke is meant to tussle as. only game before this was

a warm up against germany under twenty seven and yes he was he was basically what stood between germany and a heavier defeat against those trips to shame from a country touched even from barcelona he would have thought i could be going to this world cup is germany's number one but i know you're such a force of nature it's going to be so hard to dislodge him now all of this is happening on the eve of the world cup has this game cast any doubt on any player or solidified any player's position for live i would think neuer apart from the think what it's done for love has probably made him realise how do you fit in germany squad is last year when they won the confederations cup in russia as the warm up tournament for the world cup with basically a second string sides people were saying or germany have got two sides that are good enough to win the world cup i think last night's game probably dispel the myth and you have to go with tried and tested people twenty cola's german board saying these people will be back and for the world cup mark oregon from d.w. sports thank you for analysis thank you now it's not often that poetry causes
