a convincing faltering when they scored twice in the trough novo croatia never gave up it just wasn't enough on the night from all the world champions for the second time. also on the program a high stakes summit in finland between the u.s. and russian presidents donald trump is in helsinki to talks with vladimir putin there was a sizable demonstration against both natives meanwhile trump labeled the european union a funnel in terms of trade we'll be going live to helsinki and from all. the little. cologne well come on i'm christopher spring a good to have you with us france all soccer's new world champions after a hard fought but decisive win over croatia the croatians did dominate possession.

in the first half french coach gigi additional coaching his team's victory down to what he called shia mental strength we have a full team covering this story for you this morning tom from sports here in the studio good to have you with us tom and in paris in the french capital we have a limo tuckey standing by and in the croatian capital that grab melanie. tom we're going to start with you. first of all how significant was this french victory on sunday night well i mean the records tells something of their own story. did it is holmes has become one of only three men in history to win the world cup as a player and it was that as a coach back pages nineteen years old he's now the first teenager to school in a farnell since pele in one hundred fifty eight the final itself was the highest scoring for the world cup since one thousand nine hundred sixty six france's court was the second youngest at the tournament. hope this somewhat because we're about

to take a look actually and see how the match unfolded yesterday with. i an early and one these more free kick made its way past the croydon keeper but it was a croatian head that noticed it in mario man juke each with an unlucky own goal to give france the lead. but the croatian comeback kings hit back in the twenty eighth minute even perish itch i he went from hero to zero though as a video review showed him handling the ball in the opposition box a soft penalty but nonetheless tucked away by imes one these maul for his fourth of the tournament i in the second half france extended their lead through paul pogba a long range effort tucked into the corner i. pay repeated the trick again beating daniel suba sheets from far out for one france then took their foot off the gas mario man juki chased down a back possible hugo lloris to score an embarrassing mistake but the french captain

didn't frown for long for to the final score live below win the world cup for a second time with smiles all round ribs i. know there's the action for you back to tom mckenna i hit the studio tom how fortunate were france to win the well cup last night i mean they they had a soft penalty as we just saw an unlucky own goal scored by mentioned kitsch you know how fortunate with the french to win this is perhaps an element of fortune in every sporting success and certainly in every match of football. but you always a never win a world cup without deserving two now one idea that has kind of persisted throughout the tournament and of course picked up as the tournament has gone on and croatia have remained in the tournament. is that the creation team must hiatt the quality of their matches have gone into extra time and the players have you know

been pausing for breath every time the ball goes out and stuff so people thought that perhaps the tee. against against immigration play have an advantage because of the hardness now we saw how england tripped up by that and france carried on they have an unbelievable attacking also hasn't always come into the fore because it's not ready to show the system he prefers the play a bit more defensive he has been the tactical monster of this tournament and we can actually hear from him now and see how he said upgrade to victory last night. was simply beautiful and it's marvelous for these piousness such a young generation some of them are world champions or just nineteen even though others have been around a lot longer through brilliantly today but we showed lots of mental strength because in any case we scored four goals it's deserved. to be thinking we scored four goals it's deserved some bring in talk you know if you're in paris millions of

french fans yesterday on the streets how with the celebrations in the capital ecstasy your for oreo the streets where basically you feel awash in red white and blue and today you can see they are massive cleaning efforts on the way and the scenes yesterday was so while that as reporters every time we basically put on our camera every time we went to life on ai we were immediately bombarded by fans trying to scream into the camera people of france france number one with the best and of course that continued well into the night i barely slept at all because of all the honking cars that you had on night long why don't we actually take a look at some of those why seen snow. was this a sea of love now the city of joy paris erupts off to france's win in moscow i

thousands of the super in france packed the french capital. dancing in the streets and shouting from the rooftops. that this is great everyone's here together and it's a good atmosphere and makes everyone feel better and we're happy to be here and pride to be french. nationals and it's obviously i really felt as happy as i do today. i remember in one nine hundred ninety eight it was fourteen years old i can celebrate like this budget night i'm going to set the city on fire thank you france think it's great it was great thank you go they've good we're the champions. one fan in particular couldn't contain his excitement french president and manuel mccall watching the match in moscow he even got a pass on the head from his croatian counterpart thrilled with the team second place. a lima hotel in paris for us

tremendous atmosphere in the french capital and hold certain moscow the french president there in the victory post there was however a small group of fans way out of line in paris the police having to use cheer gas to disperse them what happened there. yes what started i was basically a celebrations turned quite ugly near the end we ended up going to the a and it's tradition for fans to basically what they do is they move up and down the street they either drive or they walk and they basically make these rounds around the uk the trio and they repeat this all night what happened yesterday is that we had a small contingent basically a minority of fans who started destroying property to start it getting violent on the way the air we saw cars dismantling it was crazy the cops immediately

came in disperse the crowds and they had to use tear gas and for someone like me i've never ever the first time i've ever come in contact with tear gas and it was a burning sensation even poss in our mouth and our noses they were not not nice scenes not the way to have to basically end up victory ok thanks to you and you looking very good on no sleep and guess let's switch now bow to the capital zagreb on hand for us there melanie only give us a sense of the mood in zagreb you know are people disappointed are they celebrating . you would have expected to be disappointed but that image could not have been further from the truth actually had you been here you might have confused with the city of the world champion people here was celebrating as if the creation team themselves had brought the world cup and not the friends so it's been truly amazing to see i had thirty thousand people here right behind me

watching the game yesterday cheering for the team applauding and throughout the entire night we had fly and crackers flags waving people singing and dancing so we didn't need any tissue just tears of joy maybe so in other words the croatians just very very proud that such a small country made it to the final of the world cup. they are incredibly proud think about it they're just about four million people living in crazy and they would have never expected that team to go so far and then they made it to the finals of the fast time and that was cup history ever that they made it back five so they are incredibly proud margaret even got the award for the best play of the entire world cup so people here are just incredibly happy they couldn't believe it of course it would have been nice to come in fast but coming and second was just as

great ok moni thanks for that one of those dancing behind her just a second ago back to tom in the studio here in but then. two years ago from losing the final of the european championships which of course they hosted had two years ago now they've won the world cup how bright is the future very bright indeed i mean let's remember like i said earlier this was the second youngest scored at the tournament there are a lot of players whose potential has kind of be known at this tournament but you haven't quite really proven themselves they have done that now i'm thinking of of course benjamin mundy. other players have really announce themselves that this woke up benjamin parvati had a fantastic film and he's just twenty two years old and killian about pay was of course already something of a superstar he lit the tournament up in his best moments you really looked unstoppable his pace was incredible simitian was perfect he's only nineteen years old now any team that's got a treasure lot back such a young age in this court can definitely say that they've brought

a future and that's the case the front ok tom many thanks for that tom you know it from the sports on the front as well champions. we're going to look ahead now to the other big story today the first of a summit between u.s. president donald trump and his russian counterpart vladimir putin after months of exchanging long distance compliments the two men are now meeting in the finnish capital helsinki that's happening later today the summit agenda is shrouded in mystery somewhat leaving washington's european allies nervous about potential concessions that trump might make frayed further yesterday when the u.s. president called the european union a phone in terms of trade. donald trump the u.s. president arrives in helsinki. and you know when trump is in town he's here to meet vladimir putin russia's president in a high profile a much anticipated summit it's the last stop on trump's european tour and like

elsewhere he's been met with protests around two thousand finns turned out in helsinki to oppose the president's views. and the protesters are all too happy with putin's track record either what will the leaders discuss well it isn't that clear trump's administration has said they are looking for anything concrete i don't expect anything i frankly don't expect very low expectations i think. the rush is a good thing that it's possible. the summit in helsinki is being billed more as an opportunity for the leaders to improve their report then as a chance to hammer out a new relationship but it hasn't all been plain sailing in a television interview the day before he left for helsinki trump once again rattled his european allies. asked who he thought his number one foe was trump said not russia but the e.u. he said well i think we have a lot of photos i think the european union is

a foe what they do to us in trade now you wouldn't think of the european union but there are folks these comments to a quick response from donald tusk e.u. council president america and the e.u. are best friends who have a says we are photos is spreading fake news. the theme of trump's time in europe ruffled feathers the president's relationship with russia has been under scrutiny since he was elected president costing doubt on the strength of the u.s. european alliance ahead of a summit with russia only adds fuel to the fire. and to w.'s peter craven is covering today's summit in helsinki for us first of all peter why helsinki why are the two men meeting in the finnish capital. well christopher for more we gather this was a suggestion that came from donald trump itself himself he put that suggestion to his team he said he wanted to have a backdrop that would be monumental no i when you look behind me and you see the president's palace across there the yellow fronted building where the the press

conference is going to take place between putin and trump this afternoon it doesn't look exactly monumental and i think when we talk about monumental in a backdrop i think what donald trump was referring to was that what we all know is that helsinki has been a venue down the years for big summits east west summits the united states and russia the united states in the soviet union not least the famous summit that led to the helsinki declaration accords back in one thousand nine hundred seventy five and that really led to invention through the process of doing more to the final demise of the soviet union i don't think anything so grand is going to happen here in helsinki today in fact donald trump despite the fact that he had huge expectations in advance of this get together monumental if he is actually now being backpedaling and saying don't expect too much keep expectations low well despite those low expectations or at least that expectation management strategy should we call it this is a much anticipated summit. very little information about what's going to be on the

table though what the two leaders are going to talk about so what are you hearing what are we expecting to be on the table. well two things i think first of all that's donald trump style he wants to go into these meetings he says he is prepared but he's not really as prepared as generally speaking leaders are going into the summit meetings that says that that kind of his team quite frankly they fear that such a smooth operator it's not him it putin is going to run rings around him what are they going to talk about will trump said before he left the u.s. to come to this meeting and to come to europe he said they're going to talk about syria they're going to talk about. crimea they're going to talk about ukraine but they're also the. inevitably now we're going to have to talk about the charges the accusations of russia meddling in the two thousand and sixteen presidential election with these twelve indictments that came through in the u.s. so further indictments accusing u.s. russian operatives of meddling in the election donald trump is going to have to

look at him and putin bright deep in the eyes and says do you know about this you've been involved in this can you come clean here from the part of the track record from the past is flooded with putin is going to say i know nothing donald trump is going to come out of the meeting and say well i asked him but he said he does not think i believe him. of course another. section if you want to who are looking on nervously at the europeans they're worried that trump might make concessions to putin that will harm their interests all those war is justified you know. many people think so and then again because this is going to be a meeting behind closed doors we're not quite sure we have no idea frankly what they are you know what arrangements they might make with each other what we do know this is been a bad week for europe donald trump but rated nato leaders a few days ago he berated to reason day in london he's now come out and said the u.s. a photo and let's be honest donald trump and. share a lot of common ground here their gut instincts as

a chisel away at the values based liberal democracies that stands for and whether they're going to agree to do more of that let's wait and see but i don't think they're going to tell us they are going to be you know this is why they want to speak in private ok peter many thanks for that peter graven in helsinki. we're going to catch up with some of the other stories making news around the world now two reporters from myanmar charged with violating the country's secrecy laws it's you testify in court today to have pleaded not guilty on charges of seeking classified information last year as part of their reporting on the government's handling of the rove inject crisis the case is being closely watched as a test of press freedom in the mouth. activists in the indian city of bhopal have demonstrated in support of their own g.b.t. rights india's g.b.t. community hoping that the country's supreme court will soon move to decriminalize

the continent you will be in trouble brits love their store various they don't like to pick the. british strawberries from kent with lots of cream and getting the fruit to the bowl takes a lot of work and since the brags that the session there's been a lack of strawberry pickers from europe. strawberries. i want my strawberries. and i know we'll find some someone will find them and i'll help myself out i'll pick them but. the strawberries are delivered in crates from the strawberry fields in the southern english county. david figure this is a fruit grower the fourth generation in the family business more and more of his fruit is rotting in the fields the pickers who work for him for years just stop showing up the up not just do we want labor from europe but we want to be at a trade with europe we buy they stroll revamps came from belgium the worst came to
