2:04 pm
really slow in strong currents and the to be busier visibility but it was a bit of that in the rain and we actually moved by. we would think in terms of the british team playing six months through the room with the kids work and on the fourth year two days ago we actually found it's. if the system would flood that would mean. it would be close from all over axis even though there's no way of reaching them so to tie and even talk to the full and to be locked up with a huge supply of of food. to be looked in the tree of four months is of quite a bit of sacrifice of the part. that was banned raman it's a diving expert speaking to us earlier and now let's get more on the story now we can speak to reuters correspondent punter one shot only who is outside the cave where the boys are trapped he joins us on the line and our panel it's being said that the rescue as we heard there might take months how are authorities dealing

2:07 pm
need to stop nuno made you a diver is amazing i need to see the two gone in to to to go and visit the boys and find we have a pot to make it much easier for them to come back but the bottom line is this. the case and the most dangerous part of the state is still very much flooded so. they're going to extract from one. members of the fifty three if you choose. to be able to claim i told you that their interests are at the moment we're not sure yet that really when this is all right reuters correspondent punter one shown outside the cave where the boys are trust speaking to us thank you very much now to some other stories making headlines around the world until america has defended her new migration policy in parliament today after reaching a compromise with her hardline interior minister to limit illegal migration the

2:11 pm
but it really hasn't changed anything in poland i mean the dialogue has gotten better even the european commission acknowledges as much because with this new polish prime minister he's a different kind of person than his predecessor for that but in substance and that's what the commission said here in strasburg today in substance it's just not enough change so far so what is at stake for poland then. well eventually article seven procedure but the groundwork for that is already laid what does that mean article seven eventually could lead to the stripping of the e.u. voting rights of poland although that seems highly unlikely because some countries have already said they would veto something like that especially hungry although you never know how it's really going to turn out in the end but something that could really hurt poland is the money because they're getting a large amount actually the biggest amount of the cohesion fund funding from the european union and there has been talk and there have been lots of discussions about tying those funds to the state. of the of the country in this in

sanctions after they were slapped with a fine the company promised to discipline employees involved in the scheme but the commerce department said this week that those employees were paid bonuses instead. england fans celebrating in the north capital yesterday after their team's win against colombia with mentions of course coming home after a dramatic day at the world cup that saw their side progress to the quarterfinals for the first time since two thousand and six. so much excitement for england and we want to talk about that with our social media editor william no uncle kraft and also we have our correspondents all over moody who is in moscow for us ali let's start with you england went into this game such as favorites take us to how this played out i guess kind of how you'd expect a game between two evenly matched opponents england i think were marginally the
2:18 pm
better side over the course of the ninety minutes to take a slim lead into stoppage time because colombia were going to make it so easy for them it was a techy game as well a lot of gamesmanship a lot of yellow cards handed out especially to colombia and i think that added to the tension as well the game then of course ending in the most dramatic of fashions but the pictures can tell the story much better than i can so let's take a look at the highlights right now. harry came penalty after fifty seven minutes put england in the lead against an ultra defensive colombia side without the services of their injured star regus. in injury time england keeper jordan pickford had to produce his best save but was powerless on the ensuing corner when yet he mean up pounded the ball into the net for the last ditch colombia equaliser i mean as third goal at this world cup sent the match into extra time when england was only two minutes away from advancing to the quarterfinals. after
2:19 pm
a goal this extra time england had to go through the dreaded penalty shootout jordan pickford saved carlos back his attempt and then up stepped eric dyer and finally england not only won a penalty shoot out but made it through to the quarterfinals to. ali what drama well this is like for england fans in the stadium. well in theory this game was played and a neutral ground but the reality it felt like a home game for colombia there were far more yellow than white spots exciting here moscow last night the fans totally outnumbered and out song on the night but you know i think that just made it all the sweeter for the england fans that did make the trip to moscow seeing that team win and win in a fashion that they'd never won at that
2:20 pm
a world cup before winning on penalties i mean england have never done a world cup before the last time i've been to any major tournament was back in one nine hundred ninety six so this is something england fans been waiting for for a very long so i'm really it felt like something actually quite historic for the english national football team so history for the football team will you want to come to you social media must be going crazy what do you been seeing oh it is i mean you have to remember the england national team is ruthlessly mocked and has been for years even by their own fans for just collapsing at major global tournament and then their inability to to win big games especially by penalties has been considered a curse i mean we see what sky news for example tweeted even while of the game was still going on they wrote why do england always lose a penalty which was pretty fatalistic which was corrected by a very excited fan from leeds simply saying not anymore and of course not just on twitter but no victory is complete with spontaneous public celebration you see here scenes from parts of london. people going crazy.
2:21 pm
and of course manchester united fans seem to be more happy about how in one than that they want it all because they wrote i don't care what happens now we won on penalties so you can see that in england penalties really big deal what about the team themselves because this is so huge for the players as well yeah players are obviously ecstatic but this is really huge for their manager gareth southgate she's best known for two things his stylish vests but of course more than two decades ago he lost in his own penalty. lance which lost england the chance to go on to the finals germany preceded tonight in that tournament and that's been daunting southgate ever since so you can see here side by side two images of their manager southgate one more than two decades ago blues in that game and the other last night so in summed up by the by the writer here turning a personal loss personal trauma to a life lesson and a victory so whatever happens now i think one demon in english soccer history has
2:22 pm
been vanquished indeed all right and you know it wasn't just england colombia all they want to come back to because there was another match yesterday tell us about that yeah that's right sweden circle in switzerland for the right to face england in the quarter final now i don't think many of us were expecting this to be an oil play to give the games we say two of the lower ranked teams still left in the competition what we got was not the most thrilling of round of sixteen games but it was one that showcase in particular sweden's skills very well let's take a look at the highlights from that game in a match moments by stopping us it was paps fitting in before specks decisive going came by or deflection from one of. the pool coming week easily into the far corner of the names. of the noisy swedish fans who call the devout that. threw caution to the wind in the hope of getting an equaliser which never came gaps
2:23 pm
appeared in their defense martin alston broke down by my collapsing i lie and given his marching orders sweden any given a free kick it was the last action of the game sweden or through so that first world cup quarter final in twenty four years i. know how is sweden going to fare against england. well as i said sweden is one of the lower ranked teams left in the tournament but funnily enough i think they actually have exactly the kind of skill set that could work in their favor against a team like england england's big strengths so far has been set pieces corners and free kicks thrown into the books for players to make runs and head into the net. sweden though are very very organized very well organized in defense and i think they are perhaps better placed than even some of the big it seems like france to deal with the kind of threat that england has this could actually be a much closer game than people think and i think we'll still go into the much as
2:24 pm
the favorites they've got the bigger players they've got the most talented players but sweden are dark horse and as we've seen at this tournament the favorites on guaranteed anything you have to fight tooth and nail for every single victory here so sweden do still have a chance all right ali moody for us in moscow and here in our studio our social media editor well you know our glue crossed thank you to you both and we have more of our comprehensive world cup coverage on our website w dot com. now to some more news that the syrian army's offensive in the south of the country has forced tens of thousands of people to flee their homes neighboring jordan says it cannot take in any more refugees israel will also not let the syrians in to kramer reports from the golan heights. more and more tents and makeshift homes are being set up near this village on the syrian side of the golan heights over eleven thousand syrians are said to have reached the area near the fence to the israeli occupied golan heights the assad regime has norm's to massive offensive in nearby province shown
