yemen and syria are seen as proxy wars between the u.s. and its regional allies on one side and iran on the other. that has observers worried about a direct confrontation if you have a situation in the middle east where there are level battlefields where you have physically very close distances between iranian and american forces and they do not talk to each other this is highly dangerous and could lead to a very very full scale war in the middle east who can afford it nobody came. by tightening sanctions and boosting its forces in the region the u.s. has upped the pressure on iran the trump administration withdrew last year from a deal that aims to halt iran's nuclear weapons program saying iran has violated it and that the deal does too little to contain tehran support for terrorist groups. other parties to the nuclear deal including the u.k. france and germany disagree as does the un's atomic agency meeting this week in

moody from d.w. sports ali germany faced china and came on top one nil that's right it was a bit of a startling start from the german save it has to be said but they go over the line and that's really what counts and we can take a look at some highlights from the game right now it was actually china who had the better of the game in the stages and they had a few big chances early on and one of them that we're seeing now actually hit the post agonizingly close with the chinese by the shop but germany you know the strong from set pieces china failed to clear this one properly and take a look at it. and it is julie a good win that what a way to announce yourself on the world stage for a 19 year old making her world cup debut and that was enough to give germany the when. there is room for improvement for sure germany will have to improve if they want to get to the latter stages of this tournament and certainly if they want to win it but when it comes to tournament football a win is
6:13 pm
a win you build your momentum however you can and germany will certainly take that result today we saw france play on friday and my goodness that was dominant they certainly frankly to me look like the team to beat certainly we knew they were going to be up for ahead of this tournament playing on home soil they showed straight from the off there were no nerves there whatsoever it's no surprise. like . when you were not as well he scored 2 goals from set pieces to see those players putting on some good form i mean they've had a great season for their club side lee all they won the french league and the champions league yet again. the only question really was whether they would be able to get up from running and get the crowd behind the wheel $45000.00 and that prince and paris. and certainly the french team gave them something to chew. and you look at the atmosphere that they've managed to create already you look at the quality in the side of the players that i've mentioned in a few others as well and you look at the fact that they've got this great start to
6:14 pm
the tournament already they're going to strike fear into their opponents i think it's going to take a big performance from a very big side to take them down what else is coming up on day 2 with of the world cup well later on we've got the other game from france's group so that's norway taking on nigeria no way of course a former world champion but they might struggle a little in this world cup because of course they're missing the hay about who might well be the best player in the world right now she won the ballon d'or just a few months ago she's missing not through injury or anything like that but for a protest against the way that women's football is treated in a way she doesn't think is given the same level of respect as the men's game and therefore for the last couple of years she has refused to play for the national team so she's clearly making a sacrifice there and perhaps that will see the team struggle as well missings a great goal scorer which is what she does best nigeria on the other hand they are the best team to come out of africa in recent years certainly they've won the cup of nations there the continental championship 9 times of the current champions
