in malta instead. for more let's bring in correspondent a mean s.s. he's in lampedusa following the story for us telling authorities certainly didn't want these people on there sure so how were they received. well a coordinator for that meditate on the that's the ngo that's responsible for that ship that came into port against italy's wishes they told me it was a sheer torture what the people on board had to go through after spending almost 2 days out at sea they were forced to spend another 8 hours in port waiting almost without explanation as the authorities decided what to do with them now after they came off that boat 8 hours after they had come in it was fairly standard procedure from there they were taken to the immigration center like a lot of migrants who arrived on this island but they were also greeted by a welcoming committee some activists have come out with a sign saying welcome to learn how to do so as well there were people who were deering out them telling them to go home. amy and the interior minister said that
11:08 am
the vessel's crew would be placed under investigation for bedding illegal immigration have we gotten any reaction from the crew yet. again. well a spokesperson for the ngo speaking for the crew said and the captain said that they remain firmly behind their decision to come into port they said it was their humanitarian duty they were obeying international maritime law to come into the closest port they said they could not last out an ocean any longer could not make the trip to malta which had originally welcomed them so they say that there was no criminal activity of course. as we heard is says that it was a political act just to go out and pick up migrants and then come to lampedusa knowing full well that they would have to force their way in now is all of this deepening riffs in europe's migration policy.
11:09 am
well that depends on who you ask of course on the island of lampedusa if you can take that for an example it's a very much polarized you have the one side who sees the lives of those rescue out at sea as the most important thing here and says politics needs to be resolved once people come to land and then you have the other people who see it as n.g.o.s going out and picking up people from north africa and bringing them to europe's shores so if you take that as an example for all of europe and certainly things are becoming more polarized. i mean s.-s. in lampedusa for us thank you very much now to some of the other stories making news around the world. in hong kong tens of thousands of anti-government protesters are marching through the city the rally is expected to end outside a controversial train station linking hong kong to the chinese mainland the activists want to raise awareness among tourists arriving from mainland china the protests were sparked several weeks ago by a law that would allow extraditions to mainland china. greek voters casting their

11:11 am
sides heading into the game today. well it was interesting at the press conferences yesterday to know the different sort of vibes about the 2. the us with in the coach jill scott seemed very relaxed like a team that's been here and done it before. talked about there being a lightness to the u.s. team and you could really sort of feel that in the answers that she gave to questions on many different subjects the netherlands were much more focused they wanted to talk about the game itself and not really anything else and. was perhaps even a little bit stern in the way that she dealt with reporters anyway let's take a look at what the 2 teams have been doing ahead of the game. there can be no questioning the quality of the support that the netherlands have enjoyed wrongs but sunday's final won't be won in the streets or start. reigning champions the usa are in fine form so far no opponent has posed this squad any great threat they've
11:12 am
cruised to the final at the counter it's no wonder they're feeling so confident. we have that sort of undying line confidence and ourself always whether it's a 4 game or you know sprint test could have woke up final whatever it may be a stiff task for the netherlands could be made tougher by the potential absence of midfielder martins and injury headache back coach serena wiig man could do without still ahead of the biggest game of her life the dutch boss seems strikingly serene we have to be aware of the strengths and weaknesses of the opponent and that's how we approach every game the expectations are different now. the u.s. has to face and we had on a dark and we're fine with that as indeed all the travelling supporters. their idols are just 90 minutes away from the biggest prize in the game. so
11:13 am
all of the dutch admit that the u.s. are actually the favorites but they have been impressive at this train and have. the u.s. absolutely have been impressive yeah i think if i had to sum it up briefly i would just say that they've proven once again already that they are the best team in the world you know they've won every game they've scored a lot of goals they dominated the midfield in every game that they've played their keepers made some great saves including the penalty save in the semifinal you know a lot of the talk before this tournament was about how it was the most competitive competitive women's world cup that we've ever seen and i think that's why they've been true but the u.s. has still been a cut above. if the question before the tournament was could anyone topple the u.s. so far the answer has been resoundingly. the netherlands are clearly in their 1st ever final do they have a chance here i mean if you if you buy a lottery ticket you've got a chance of winning right the netherlands have bought their lottery ticket getting
11:14 am
into the final but as anyone who's played the lottery knows your chances of not great i feel like this would be a major shock for the netherlands to win they need everything to go in their favor they need the u.s. to underperform they need to be fit they need to hold out in the opening phases when the u.s. usually brings this kind of attacking onslaught but if all that happens they've got the quality to take advantage of it and certainly we're seeing a lot of orange shirts already arriving at the fans and here behind me. will be roaring that same on the u.s. also has plenty of fans who saw it should be a fantastic atmosphere for the final. result of a moody inly all side of the world cup final thank you very much and enjoy the game . sweden benefited from a fast start to beat england 21 in the 3rd place playoff game in knees the swedes got the jump on the line when kosovo scored the 1st in the 11th minute to give her side the lead sophia jakobsen made
