cup heartbreak for spain as portuguese superstar cristiana rinaldo schools are late he commands it to secure a three year old draw it was the tournament first heavyweight clash in a thrilling encounter will have the highlights for you and all the talking points later on this show. hello and welcome my name's christopher spring eight thanks for joining us germany faces a weekend of political tension in what's proving to be the biggest stress test so far for chancellor angela merkel's new government which took office just three months ago machall is facing a public challenge from her interior minister hossein hoffa he's the leader of the bavarian sister party of macros conservative christian democrats and he wants to turn back migrants of germany's border if they're undocumented or already registered in another e.u. country merkel is insisting on finding a common european approach while on mondays

a hopeful is threats to push ahead with his plan using his see as interior minister . well for more on this let's bring in our chief political correspondent linda crane melinda this is one of merkel's key ministers hall 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 that 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 but 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 government shortly after it took office
12:04 pm
absolutely i mean it is really very dramatic indeed the question is why is who for doing this why is he doing it now what's driving him to do this what's driving him above all our politics in tact. namely his party is the bavarian sister party of the chancellors 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 there is about to hold a very important regional election that is the heartland of say ho fers 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 i'm saying that they were told that the former finance

minister and the 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. and migration was also topping the agenda when french president emmanuel mccall met italy's new prime minister jens if it comes to in paris on friday the two men calling for profound changes to the european union's saddam policies talks came after a diplomatic spat earlier this week when paris criticize rome's refusal to let a migrant rescue ship docked at its port. days ago they exchanged harsh

words now it's handshakes and back rubs french president emanuel and italian prime minister giuseppe contests 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. the concept of a state of first entry must be reviewed whoever set 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

finish for the spanish equaliser shortly before the time it was alone now it will time again superstar scoring portugal second courtesy of dummy to ts horrific 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 city for the first time i'm not sure if i'm not in this and this but it's up. butts after eighty eight minutes up step just general now it'll be back this equaliser it's general knowledge of three space history and it's get more a day of drama with me in the studio emily how should these votes 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 girl so far we couldn't decide emily
12:11 pm
portugal's us is spain would 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 spanish goal costa seemed to be pretty much plow right pepe the defend we had nine referees looking at video assistant referee system but 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 paper where the two main characters that might cause the a are 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 of cameras i'm going to say it was probably all
12:12 pm
right but of course it looked quite quite bad i personally thought it was a fairly clear foul but that's what everybody is talking about let some search over to moscow jonathan what are people talking about there. but i think this is why russia wanted to harvest the roke operates why billions of people from around the world soon and supported it for moments of magic from the game's biggest stars that they don't come much bigger do they then christiane i rinaldo the world footballer 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 from some nice 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 say there was assassin and never never its ability about that free kick everyone crowded around the screen where we were watching that day and when saying yukon's and i have gradients can you absolutely he. 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
12:13 pm
two matches you know there was quite a lot of late drama in those matches as well. 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 onto goalless draw they really tried they defended beautifully she did so well but a late goal header from a humanist save the three points for why what about the other game and america iran was similar it was looking like a goalless draw for a long time and actually 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 as a russia definitely with their five zero win there's only three group games at the
12:14 pm
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 are 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. but i think. he never says iceland all eyes will be only about 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 for most that they were making lots of noise yesterday when we were in the central square as that so you least argentina will feel like they have some home support behind them and of course france also kicking off their campaign today. jonathan krane in moscow many thanks to both of you. and don't forget you can always get news
