it's always a memorable occasion when shall have endorsement to mean it but this time perhaps for tragic reasons. it could be the last time the royal family rivals get fired up for germany's biggest army because the game that's like no other could see the past. the 98 edition of the riviera job it could be the last because on match day 22nd shall come our last. if they can manage to stay in the top. spills. or dream darby goals. are less than heartfelt handshakes. but there was plenty of action elsewhere to. first leading buyer non-plussed.
4:32 pm
must take its lot to task. but not. to. kick off in that state 22. ahead of the 98 riviera dobby both sides had seen better days needed a win to stay in the running for a champions league spot just as well that visiting shaka was no longer the ominous prospects it once was. only the local mascot was manning the stands and shouted don't stop picking up points quickly they'll soon be no more top flight dobby's between the 2 sides which their bitter rivals would miss. i played many and
4:33 pm
he had so many i'm. very grateful events so i would really miss the derby so yeah i know what what this story means for the people here so hopefully them shaka can make it but not today next week that would be ok for us . but shoka showed no signs of making anything at the end of a desolate 1st half they finally relented to pressure from dortmund. benjamin stumble live with just one in a string of unforced errors. and jaden century needed no 2nd dustin to put his side in front. we don't think had gotten a confidence boost in the 32 away when it sylvia in the champions league young and shaka were now on the receiving end of a painful demonstration in attacking football. just 3 minutes later the slickest
4:34 pm
singing of the much courtesy of some acrobatics from alan holland. and a pinpoint cross from century. that's gone number 65 more than the entire shock it seemed put together this season. plus young huntelaar the hosts recruited former super striker was out injured and powerless. evene was at least still flying the flag. shocker started the 2nd talk with a huge chance perhaps dortmund when i'm nervous and a comeback was on the cards. unless it would prove to be shockers so chance of the softer the evening get. dortmund turned the darby into a demolition job rafael guerrero was that good on the hour mark and holland completed the routes in the 79th minute. shoppers full name by the way and is in the year of their founding in the early 20th century 0 for. the tough
4:35 pm
one to swallow shock is worse dubey defeat in over half a century. group and saluted their imaginary fans while shocking to sink further towards their 1st relegation since the late eighties. is difficult for us. we have to we have to be constantly try to be contact to be a little bit bossy if i know after the game is very difficult but tomorrow we have to go into the studio and train hard to keep believing because it's the only way we are we i know it is. for everyone but we have to have to fight and we need to there was a big game for us on you know the recent weeks haven't been so good so we need to do that we can show the fans that we kept the fight in spirit and you know i'm just happy that we're going to win and to contribute here to go is the goal machine when i say i'm happy to assist these crazy goes from school. shall his departure now
4:36 pm
seems unavoidable rather depressed and been quietly left the stadium and in holland was still celebrating long after the final whistle another superdelegate display from the book became. it's beautiful watching don't means dream. elling holland and jayden sanchez were at it again on dobby day and you could tell they were having fun. but you can't blame them for getting a bit giddy up the combining to score a p.t. like that off on the train impeachment we worked together so hard so you know i want surprise he's able to do some things which doesn't make it so you know he deserves all the credit. it seems to time. but yeah when i looked up i saw him in some space and it was it was strange for me to see only known and i knew ways he
4:37 pm
can do on the pitch so i just lifted it lifted up in the air and he done the rest and you know crazy. the engine we still finds finds. we keep finding each other so. we have to we have to keep it up and also it's a pleasure to play with these guys so. it is what it is thank you thank you thank you. but through. the book. it's hard to talk about the beautiful game without mentioning the club the wanted all this past year bar in munich. but since adding their 6 trophy to their 2020 collection the club worldcon byard had yet to taste victory again back home in the bundesliga. while 2020 may have been byron's year so far 2021 belongs to frankfurt the eagles have been on stoppable in the new year before the weekend frankfurt were unbeaten in their last 10 were to sleep in matches and had
4:38 pm
yet to lose a single home game all season even barnes coach was impressed under frankfurt up to my trike frankfurt are the best team in 2021 they have the most points they're on a good run and they're in great shape. to forecast for us but we're missing a few players. i need to speak i did mr baez and. key players such as sayers cannot leave thomas miller and bones lamont. miller and puff our ruled out after positive coronavirus tests and their absence was immediately noticeable. frankford aggressive from the get go quickly expose the byron defense. one nil to the hosts died she caught up in just the 12th minute. someone please tell byron the game started already. my finger didn't go into the
4:39 pm
game really well he was struggling. just took the chance that somebody didn't take their chances was putting you in as the midfielders rapidly becoming one of frankfurt's most important players and his wonderful strike made it to nil at the half hour mark. we played a good 1st half and it cost a lot of energy you know to play like that and we try to press and i think we did very well the 1st off but of course like i said it cost a lot of energy and it's not possible to play 90 minutes i present. the eagles dominated the 1st 45 minutes but you can never write off byron. and flick squad began to threaten as the 1st half to to a close forcing frankfurt keeper kevin chalk into some spectacular saves. after the break it was time for the roy sonny to show off his some peace moves.
4:40 pm
and levon dawson narrow the deficit slot it was 26 call it 21 loosely games. injured anti-civil could only look on as labor took another stride in the race to be the league's top goal scorer game on i think if we play their 1st off like we did the 2nd off we're going with look completely different i think. iron did create plenty of chances after the break but failed to be clinical in front of goal frankfurt held the champions at bay until the end and their early high pressing strategy paid off. and ended 21 confirming that the club's exceptional run is no fluke i don't want to say is there somebody was my 1st time i went against munich that we had to pitch. i guess we still are the best point voice in the in the going to go in $21.00 bats right even better than byron pouncey
4:41 pm
flick still looked impressed if not in total shock as frankfurt continued to impress. with i mean you know spearheading there are some attacks there's surely more to come for the rest of the. i mean you know ma'am of the match to the match day he was pivotal as frankford ran rings around byron in the 1st half. first and was his sneaky pass to philip postage who was left to tee up daiichi come out after the opener but then came frankfurt 2nd. exceptional. slice into the.
4:42 pm
neuer. special. french to new york to go on so well for the few who had i train all week long to do just that i did intend it but for it to actually go through this is amazing just a few days from fire back down to earth so could like to capitalize. like the captain must like facing house on his side had already defeated the berlin is in 7 out of 9 encounters in the top flight the host skate 1st starts to coach paul daughter and son martin and germany world cup winner some make a deal. with the pay it could do little to stop some of it so he opened the scoring with an absolute humdinger on 28 minutes. his breathtaking swerving strike was simply unstoppable. the austrian midfielder has
4:43 pm
become like 6 beloved skipper this season for a reason. and it was turning into the subs to show as he demonstrated his other midfield attributes. out so well already helping but the game is about to get even. more painful for come. on relenting pressure in the house a box lead to like 6 seconds for noting the kidding. and then stop it says served up really all about her like good light signal just 2 points off the top spot. all of the glass now has been using the same starting line up week in week out everything's been working like clockwork with 4 wins from 5 games and the well oiled ball scored machine knew just how to operate in bielefeld from one end of the field to the other. not just
4:44 pm
up and opening the scoring. back to you to go about their business eventually and with little fanfare no big celebration but worthy of applause and even though the wolves normally look to their top score about that horse for goals he showed he can also set up his teammates. thanks to stefan ortega's blunder that also never falls for seconds. and to round it off they course desisted an excellent 3rd for math ability at. least 6 clean sheets in a row and their reliance on fake horse goals waning things are only looking out for a flourishing full spork side. is rob of his now i think we're well set if we keep believing in ourselves and keep up these team performances then it can turn into a very good season this is shown as a zalman. freiburg and also enjoying good seasons no
4:45 pm
fans were there to witness the battle between everyone 2nd favorite clubs except for some local old visiting wildlife. europe is very much on the agenda for both clubs but would listen 5 matches when you are needed to turn around to keep the dream alive. with the teams evenly matched christian strike made a triple substitution midway through the 2nd half to try and break the stalemate. which she did albeit in young's favor just moments after the changes the visitors produced a fine move that was converted by the head and creature printed. with european football now back in sight. marcus invites and cross was positively begging to be headed in stop the wrong. a nice present for it was fisher on his
4:46 pm
55th birthday. often time and braman were level before their clash but only the posts remember to where they're shooting bids the last 5 who got on the scoresheet 1st. struck down gardner wriggle through for half an hour and 2nd . base who turned provider has moved past a board extended to leave shortly after the break. just 3 minutes into his cluelessly good debut meet publishers she knew would have sealed the formula when oppenheimer leap frog raymond into 11. to guts pelligrino matter also extended his contract and 2024 before the trip to cologne his so i'd look comfortable in mid table and lead early in the 2nd half after a dull 1st period. session with his template goal lista impressive stuff.
4:47 pm
the boss meanwhile was keeping his cool as he sat back and watched his austrian forward link like a proverbial salmon. cologne head back to 3 wins in their last 5 league games but there is no point doing all the hard work if emmanuel dennis is going to finish like this. one nil to stuttgart to sit in 10 and can surely start planning for another season in the bundesliga. we got in my contract sure and i'm also happy with. the future. to continue working with. so it's a good day. to learn limpopo name contrasts with relegation still a possibility. away at outsports laver cousins reserve keeper nicholas long was keen to make his 1st
4:48 pm
bundesliga start but nerves got the better of him early on. let's not punish him for his calamity. sorry loam sorry but the replay is a must. because i'm stopped for help so being undermined by inconsistency but i did finish the rollercoaster that is labor goes in season took another turn and on top so bought one last 2nd equaliser. one point it's not my child for either side but you know it's better than nothing. now off to glovebox. brasil munching blood by coach mark arose and has had
4:49 pm
a turbulent week after announcing his decision to move to dortmund in the summer he stirred up quite a storm of angry reactions from glass by fans. yes of course the wake had its effect on me. it was about making a decision and then communicating that decision. it's come to my attention that a lot of people are disappointed. but how would his team respond on the pitch with their coaches big decision put a damper on the rest of the fall season. the 1st chance to tell would be up against rose's own former club and his playing days might. rose as men are well aware they have challenging weeks ahead of them the falls face manchester city midweek in the champions league followed by lightning and then the cup and later couzens. but even relegation candidates minds proved to be
4:50 pm
a big challenge for rose's men. here karim honesty was made it one nil only 10 minutes see i'm. one flashback have gone 3 games without victory mines have recently shown they're not going down without putting up a fight. roses which wasn't looking any better. but the fellows were able to build up play and square things off the field of off our. cats in last dental buried a shot scoring his 10th of the season on his 200th competitive match the 1st year. finally a little relief for rosa. but his followers just didn't look at the top of their getting out some quite missing the target here.
4:51 pm
and here florian knew it house not even getting a shot off. meanwhile the visitors kept at it until the very. mine's delivered the final blow with less than 5 minutes left on the clock and secured all 3 points similar to last week the lake score was once again super some kevin go. another setback which only makes matters worse for glass and also for rose up. on the truly. course that counts for me as well because today for the performance i have to take responsibility. but rosa can't exactly take the blame for everything might have been fiercely fighting to remain in the bundesliga and the victory gives them every reason to keep hope. the job of 50 years to the
4:52 pm
most important thing today was to take the 3 points home after a game like this you do tend to take a glance at the league table but it doesn't show it all yet we need to continue the way we have been and next week we go from there and it's about. credit where credit's due might survive and vital points in the last 3 matches and in the relegation battle every single point is worth its weight in gold. relegation battles can be fun if you have a joker up your sleeve in this case kevin. but i think the guy. has taken that monday night. and the superstar who went to pointedly the coup said last week off the bench again this may be 1 2 this one from oinks. children she mixes more good a 2nd successive week to minds she was going to veto but i don't remember how the
4:53 pm
ball ended up in the books all i know is the ball came back out and i was screaming at robert for what felt like 10 seconds to leave it i hit it pretty sweet and somehow it went in. i was just happy as i am now and as far as going to go you know charming enough to fight in concert tickets. can be. a man for legs but greg's goal now for the results. dropped points a 2nd weekend in a row my 6 frankfurt and full support took the advantage to stay on track as mine says huge win make shall can start be defeated even more painful. for our favorite goals of the match that. in the book got such a killer lightships. it comes from
4:54 pm
a left foot of the wing back and it goes from carlo j h oh no the big goal from the biggest man in the bundesliga. and then of course i mean you this study is truly exceptional from the best player on the pitch. but one man was really flying. a relative with a snap and he's already being compared with the greats of the blindfold game. holding him for a whole. lotta prohibit yes. congrats on another page but did those goals have a dramatic impact on the standings. but. not really dortmund still have a big gap to close on those champions league places 6 points and meanwhile they have one young sneaking up to challenge for you rope elite finish the top of my
4:55 pm
figure now hot on the heels of fire. little movement in the nether regions have to remain in major trouble while mine so now within a point of beating the drop. shock is still rock bottom but in the inside but still it's ok. which team will get one over their opponents next week and dortmund are suddenly on a high. they'll be hosting bealefeld the team not to be underestimated the underdogs wipe that smile off dortmund's face. as for shall go well stuttgart put the next nail in the coffin will there be a miraculous resurrection we need to fight to come back especially mentone. fire and certainly need some work on the mental front as they hope to bounce back in
4:56 pm
their trip to rome for the champions league and to rediscover their touch. as to club boss who after losing to mine is now host manchester city in a must win game. while brave men will be out to hurt frankfurt in their quest for a top 4 finish. full spork are having a season to remember parents are having one to forget. check out backlash and more on next week's kick off.

me. this is due to the news live from berlin a helping hand germany sends a medical team to a portugal zone for welland health care system the country is currently dealing with a surge in the number of corner virus cases but is a luxury chinese own hospital the real winner we have a special report also coming up on the program israel we opens this economy with extra freedoms for the already vaccinated anyone with the green task can fly abroad
5:01 pm
go to a restaurant or pee risk if poor intake of critics have voiced concern that it's unfair. and facebook in australia's government strike a deal to end they blow. back out on u. street spent what was social media giant now paying for journalism on its digital platform. why aren't thank you so much for your company everyone where we begin our broadcast in portugal where the current of our spend democrat has hospitals in that country working at their limits earlier this month germany sent medical personnel and equipment a 2nd team from the german military has just arrived in lisbon to support intensive care units there the goal is to assist a fellow e.u. member with its covert crisis but now it seems a chinese own luxury hospital in lisbon is also reaping the benefits philip schultz
5:02 pm
has this special report. german soldiers sent into battle against covert 19 in portugal its capital city lispund it's an act of solidarity between 2 e.u. countries but as we discovered they are also a small part of a much bigger story of chinese investments that reach around the world this is what those german soldiers were probably expecting portugal's public health system is struggling to cope and your lenses line up outside completely overwhelmed hospitals but this is where the soldiers are fighting the disease a 5 star private hospital this is the hospital lose its football legend cristiana ronaldo came for an operation on this foot some years ago and its website the hospital says its proud to be continuing all of its normal services despite the pandemic those services have
5:03 pm
a wide range from 10 such treatments to cost metric surgery not only that in its latest annual reports the hospital says it will continue to focus on profitability despite the pandemic hospital isn't providing the intensive care unit fun nothing the portuguese government paid. the operating company behind the hospital is in the hands of a chinese congress on the ridge we asked the health ministry representative who was paying for watch there's an agreement we do private hospital yes to have patients here so you have to pay the creditor for money that's our interview with the person just because we are using their services the hospital did not want to speak with us offering a statement instead. new sounded group considering the critical stage that portugal is going through does not intend to benefit financially from the situation but above all to help the country chinese kong its own many host companies in portugal
5:04 pm
a trend that were recently number of observations louis bardo is an investigative journalist found out that in the 1st 6 months of the pun demick the portuguese government's page to the loose i would group around 40000000 euros for covert 900 services it's interesting to see that these 3 biggest. these 3 companies the most amount of money. is the connection share. news was really had a key role. although of course is government and will depend i mean do you think this will increase europe's and in part a growth dependency on china i think it's a good base as europeans we should be sure. they are just 26 military medics sent from one european country to another but they work of us a glimpse of a new reality that reality is of e.u.
5:05 pm
countries relying on a hospital owned by chinese companies as part of the now for profit business. all right save want to turn now to philip for your she's a researcher with a china focus think tanks an abscess and prague and has written extensively about chinese influence in europe a good day sir we just there saw an example of a chinese investment in an elaborate state that is raising a certain questions why does it matter that chinese companies have invested in infrastructure in europe why is that problematic. well the problems we can see now in australia are basically it's clear that china has this crazed friend centralised strategy of weaponize ing and politicizing anything that is economy and business cooperation and using this dependency as a weapon to achieve political goals which for the chinese communist party politics is 1st business is 2nd so it's creating lots of dependencies the can then be turned
5:06 pm
into a weapon against against those infrastructures and the people behind it but i mean it doesn't always have to be nefarious intentions can't it just be direct investment of course i mean it's not that every single contingent of us spent is somehow in the fires plan but the problem is that when push comes to shove the party can actually make anything that 10 years ago was not a problematic issue into a tool of politics and this can include even for example these medical services now as you know a couple of months ago the european union and china agreed a land mark deal that has been the recipient of christian criticism by the new u.s. administration. in terms i mean the e.u. is in kind of a bad in a bind here it has to start this delicate balance between you know keeping the u.s.
5:07 pm
happy china happy because well they need both of them. it is true but i feel on the part of the europeans we don't see that china needs us and china is actually in more in need of europe right now during its trait was a war with the u.s. and this is why china has actually pushed for this deal whilst it seems that europeans haven't really gotten anything out of it as far as we can say there's lots of concessions or issues that we don't talk about in exchange for promises that china made 20 years ago when i joined the w it's your promising to open its market to free use basically by foreign companies which is still not happening 20 years now and they're breaking the same promise ok now the covert of course that we're still going through the pandemic what effect has that had on chinese on china's rather global influence i think in the global
5:08 pm
perspective it's probably in the end at least in recent months been improving because china is basically seen as a competent government the company country that actually tackled it's in a rational manner when compared to the west but at the same time there's lots of i would say. resilient sort of a lot of negative opinion still lingering especially in western countries that have now become more aware of the dependency on china and basically in western comes they're still narratives about how china in the beginning did not actually handle the pandemic which is true but to be fair for example when you look in africa or latin america a you see the positive outcome the sort of china being the the responsible rational player that is tackling the pandemic and helping others through mass diplomacy so it basically depends on where you look. if you are shy researcher with
5:09 pm
a china focus think tank synopsis and prague thank you for joining us. thank you very much. israel's vaccine rollout has been one of the most successful in the world well more than 80 percent of those eligible have now received at least one shot and that's allowed israel to start reopening its economy many shops and services are back in business again but that i'd open to everyone some only allow customers who are fully vaccinated with a so-called green pass to go eastern ukraine reports. since september classes at this television studio have been held online because of the pandemic now people can attend again and christen but only those who hold a green pass the palace issued by israel's ministry of health is given only to vaccinated people of those recovered phone calls at 90 so it's an amazing feeling and everyone these are vaccinated so there's no fear and it feels

5:18 pm
unemployment rates will stay so high and we've got about $11000000.00 people that need to live from less than $1.90 per day and a lot of them as you mentioned are young people the labor force here is only growing because the demographics in inside africa are that we have a lot of young people and 50 percent almost of the youngsters that start high school will never finish high schools so the big problem for them here is that we have a lot of unskilled young people that come on strong find any work and that's a massive problem mainly because some of them. even you know you get x. gets jobs because because their writing is not good enough they're good macs are not good enough so yeah that's a real issue that's what africa has to do with now i want to get back to in just a 2nd ellis but it's a good time for us to hear from the country's top statistics official has been

a tourism section that a president has been talking about maybe you know linking them to call centers where they don't even need a high school degree also helping them with basics like interviewing skills or resumes and so those are they are trying to to get young people into the labor market still it's the social challenges that make it very hard and you will still have a lot of young people that won't fit that program off the government and i'm mainly talking about young people that don't even have enough money to buy data for their phone to to even look for jobs or that condi even afford to try and support money to go to a business and hand in their resume or go for an interview so a lot of work has to be done and the government also a couple of years ago promised to get a lot of work experience placements for young people and i must say that program has been lagging behind and quite a bit even before corona and all the other challenges they have now that africa has
