but i thought going on what they're doing fun to. look at a bit of that. this is t w news live from a migration route is threatening the government of german chancellor and the medical or interior minister also on the whole for wants to push through a tough national line on migrants that would undermine merkel's efforts to find a european solution to the issue the dispute shattered germany's ruling coalition just three months ago for took off there's. also on the program at the world cup

heartbreak first played as portuguese superstar christiane a ronaldo schools alleged. to secure a three year old rule that was the tournament first heavyweight clash and a thrilling encounter will have the highlights for you and all the talking points later on in the show. a little. welcome my name is christopher spring thanks for joining us germany faces a weekend of political tension in what's proving to be the biggest stress test so far off a chance that anglo backless new government which took office just three months ago michel is facing a public challenge from her interior minister hosses a whole for he's the leader of the bavarian sister party of michael's conservative christian democrats and he wants to turn back migrants at germany's borders if that . demented already registered in another country now michael is insisting on

finding a common european approach on mondays and hope for is threatening to push ahead with his plan using his own thirty cheery minister. for more on this let's bring in our chief political correspondent linda crane melinda this is one of merkel's key ministers haul see her for the interior minister threatening to go it alone on an absolutely major issue on migration help us understand first of all how dramatic the situations become absolutely very dramatic it has the potential to bring down the government and even to be the end of chancellor merkel's time in office if he thought follows through with that ultimatum which basically would say that he would use his powers as interior minister beginning this coming week to essentially contravene merkel's wishes and the coalition agreement and act unilaterally to

reimpose border controls on some of germany's borders and then to turn away migrants and send them back to the first european countries where they were registered if he did that he would be deliberately flouting the chancellor's authority and it's hard to imagine she wouldn't be compelled to let him go to dismiss him theoretically she could warn him but that would be very problematic so if she were to let him go his book very and conservatives would then leave the coalition the coalition then would no longer have a majority in parliament theoretically they might be able to govern as a minority government just s.p.d. and chancellor merkel c.d.u. but that's also a rather unlikely scenario so in that case they would have to call new elections and chancellor merkel has made it clear this is her last term as chancellor she then would wind up stepping down so essentially we're looking at something with the potential to blow up the entire german got. shortly after it took office absolutely

i mean it is really very dramatic indeed the question is why is hall for doing this why is he doing it now well to driving him to do this what's driving him above all our politics and tactics namely his party is the very end it sister party of the chancellor's c.d.u. they have always disagreed with the c.d.u. on immigration since that open door policy of twenty fifteen but this is coming to a head because the various about to hold a very important regional election that is the heartland of say hope has c.s.u. and the c.s.u. wants to look very very tough on immigration at this particular moment in time in order to ward off gains in their heartland from the far right anti immigration a.f.d. party which as you know has been on the rise so that's why he's putting on this pressure right now and just briefly what's likely to be happening this weekend lots of talk behind closed doors and they were told that the former finance minister and

current president of the parliament wolfgang schauble is trying to mediate to broker a compromise he has the respect of both sides he's also known to be fairly conservative on immigration issues they will be pushing hard for a compromise we've heard that the chancellor is not changing any of her travel plans for next week she's still going to be heading to jordan that would indicate that she is optimistic or at least trying to look that way nonetheless it's a tough situation and it's not clear that we will have a compromise on monday morning campbell to see what happens on monday morning melinda always good to talk to you linda crane the chief political correspondent. now migration was also top of the agenda when french president met new prime minister just in paris on friday the two men called for preval profound rather changes to the european union's asylum policies after their meeting the talks came after a diplomatic spat to earlier this week of the paris have criticized italy's refusal

to let a migrant rescue ship dock at its ports. days ago they exchanged harsh words now it's handshakes and back rubs french president emanuel and italian prime minister. are finding common ground despite their differences one is a european cheerleader the other the head of a euro skeptic government but both agree that the current rules for processing asylum seekers in their country of a rival are not working because the concept of a state of first entry must be reviewed and whoever sets foot in italy sets foot in europe. will be to make the math that today the current system does not work at the moment. the solidarity system is designed with quotas did not deliver satisfactory results we must find a mechanism so each state can bear responsibility for migrants on its territory but

also allow for solidarity so that the geographical situation does not result in an unsustainable political situation. the meeting was almost up ended by a spat over the plight of migrants on board the rescue ship aquarius. spokesman accused is really of cynicism and irresponsibility for turning the ship away italy demanded an apology and threatened to call off the leaders meeting the migrants remain on board the aquarius bound for spain heading through rough seas. there's farrah conditions at the elisa palace says italy is working on a proposal to overhaul europe's asylum system he wants to see migrant processing centers established in africa something appears open to an attempt to keep is really close even as european countries are drifting apart. in yemen at least two hundred eighty people have reportedly been killed and many more injured amid

a fantastic match and that is exactly what they got just seven minutes into the game and could still remember how did germany conduct its penalty for an early portugal each time which you have procured but spain has an footballing genius is to jiggle close to all of the old portuguese penalty area but sting's goal was. to see finish for the spanish equaliser shortly before tomic was a little knowledge of time again superstar scoring portugal second coach as the of us all riffing blonde. and shortly after the break it was all square again spanx diego costa was a brace of his own and only minutes later spain took the lead for the first time i'm not sure if that mundus and this but it's a. butts after eighty eight minutes up step just general now it'll be back

this equaliser and it's general not just three space three. ok let's get more a day of drama with me in the studio emily at all ships from the sports in moscow well cup correspondent jonathan crane and i can tell you emily and i were just talking about which is which is the most beautiful gold so far we couldn't decide emily portugal versus spain what a game was it a fair result. fair in terms of the better team winning i'm not so sure spain had twelve attempts to score portugal spain completed twice as many passes with better accuracy as well but a fair result would have to say yes because portugal had a good game and you just can't give kris jenner knowledge chances with a penalty and that late free kick if you want to get a win and of course there was that moment the first spanish goal costa seem to be pretty much plow right over the defend we had nine referees looking at video assistant referee system that they didn't call it well it was the first time they

used the world cup and it's quite funny because i was reading before the game that duo costs and paper were the two main characters that might cause the air to be used for the first time and that's exactly what happened they're both known for their brutality as well as their simulation it's difficult to say i think if nine people had a look at it with really close up cameras i'm going to say it was probably all right but of course it looked quite quite bad i personally thought it was fairly clear foul but that's what everybody is talking about let some search over to moscow jonathan what are people talking about there. well i think this is why russia wanted to harvest the role of copper it's why billions of people from around the world chewed and supported it's for moments of magic from the game's biggest stars and they don't come much bigger than christiane i run all over the world football and all of the year now the russians we've been speaking to you here are just so excited to be able to get to watch these players play in their own country they've been mingling with fans from those players countries by using for five days with their flags i love it more like you then christiane the album

because these are part of a rising figure isn't see there was assassin and never never its ability about free kick everyone crowded around the screen where we were watching that day everyone saying yukon's and i was pretty and the absolutely he's. back to emily here in berlin i mean rinaldo has not always scored against the big teams but three goals against spain you can't argue with that tell us also emily about yesterday's two matches you know there was quite a lot of late drama in those matches as well wasn't. yeah egypt faced or go without their superstar mohamed salah on his birthday he had to stay on the bench because he's still recovering from an injury picked up in the champions league final and she watched his teammates try to hold on to a goalless draw they really tried they defended beautifully and he did so well but a late goal header from a humanist save the three points for why what about the other game and in morocco iran was similar it was looking like a goal a straw for a long time and actually morocco were playing better but ended up scoring and

putting the ball into their own net and iran won the game in injury time as well. tragic for them a general question emily who is off which team is off to the best start at the moment that's really difficult to say after you know the first couple of games in terms of results and say russia definitely with their five zero win there's only three group games at the world cup so that's already huge for them or a guy got a really important win against the other group favorites egypt but in terms of form you've got to say portugal and spain they played fantastic football they showed why they're top contenders at this tournament ok back to moscow very briefly jonathan for matches coming up today. briefly if you can which is the one to watch. for i think arguably the one scene of ass's iceland all eyes will be on leno and messi that star player of course he's never won the world cup for argentina argentina always rely very heavily on him to deliver and he contour it on his side but they will be cheered on by thousands of argentinian founded really descended on

to send from there were making lots of noise yesterday when we were in the central square as so you. feel like they have some home support behind them and of course frontals are kicking off their campaign today. in moscow many thanks to both of you. you're watching t.w. news in but then more from us at the top of the hour up next here out europe in concert this week featuring swiss something at seventy two stay with us for that. playing who do you think is going to be bullshit claim that matches the scores playing two thousand eight hundred soccer world cup on t w nerves.
