3:06 pm
country that really needs investment infrastructure in jobs to see that that money was being looted by people in office. and so it is really hoped and you simply get the sense that people hold that people in certain government offices will see the judgement and that it will serve as a detouring factor to people considering taking a similar pot. who does this chris him on for in cape town for us. thank you, christine. the government in ethiopia has declared a unilateral sci fi and it's too gray region after 8 months of deadly conflict. but the rebels say they have now recaptured control of the city of mckayla in the regions capital. thousands had been killed since fighting broke out last november and more than 2000000 people have been displaced. the pain is everywhere. the thousands of lives lost. many others left fighting for them as to

3:19 pm
it enters, enters its next chapter tonight. when england host germany at wembley. in the last 16 of the european championships, germany have mostly come out on top. and these tournament clash with, with one exception, that goes way back. that was when england won the world cup of wimbley and 166, and then germany have one every major knockout match between the 2 countries. the team arrives in london having choked up a lot, a wind, and a drawer to get through the stage. now, $40000.00 fans are expected for the match. when did stadium, that's despite the rising karone of those cases in the u. k. the majority of the crowd will, of course, be support in england by germany. don't see the away trip of any kind of disadvantage. wembley stadium steeped in history and the spiritual home of english for player the atmosphere can be electric. the crowds also have
3:20 pm
a tendency to panic when things aren't going so smoothly it should be advantage england and get a south gate. the germany know better than most that wimbley can be conquered. maybe england here on their way to winning the euros in 1996. and now they want to use the hostile crowd to their benefits. this emma is him a guy of in the to me diagonal fence. always awesome if the stadium is crowded with your own fan, but it's almost just as awesome when the whole stadium is against you. and you can reach your maximum performance and silence the opposition of support and foster. l aimed from the angel. united kingdom has seen a state rise in current of ours cases in the past week due to the delta variance. but that hasn't stopped plan to host about $40000.00 and fin on tuesday evening at wembley. it's certainly not an ideal situation. so some of the players
3:21 pm
shaun, shaun guns that even the gatti, sons, or yes, borderline if i'm on a few 240000 fans in the stadium, in the only country in europe, where currently the incident is above average. that doesn't make things safer for us on the cell. it's nick, nick younger felicia on this is the bar from optimal. when you look at the big picture, just because i'm busied, you weight has been determined for as many fans as possible to attend matches at disuse, european championship, the show as always, must go on and the so does go on as we can see in the background that charlotte chance, phil, who's standing by when the stadium, the holy turf, wembley, how big of a deal solid is this match denied for the british fans for the english fan. okay. has the england friends that really is no greater rivalry than england. bus is germany. this is something that has been going on for decades,

and i have to say, anticipation is really building here. now. what, when believe fans already gathered at the stadium? i'm not sure he can hear them, but just in the distance there are a lot of chances you would expect being kicked around. there's a lot of excitement here as will be, and pubs and bob up and down the country at the moment. now, this does date back at least here in england, 21966, this rivalry that's the last time that england won the world caught this the thing germany. since then, it's been a lot of bad luck for england when they've met germany on the patient international matches the fact that 966 was a long time that england beat germany added milk out sage and a major international tournaments. so a lot of disappointment over the years, which is really just added to this rivalry for english fan germany fans a little bit different. it's not viewed in quite the same way. they have big arrival teams. what i have a tough match, the netherlands, for example. now,
3:23 pm
questions being asked about whether this mythology, this history is going to have an impact on the england play is in particular, they've been off that it interviews the manager here, garrett south gate has said no, it's up to them to, to make our own history to redefine this rivalry, and perhaps in future at this game, have some happy memories of playing germany. this historic game also like everything at the moment, overshadowed by the pandemic. the delta barrier is spreading, the u. k. is massively effective and has stopped the further using of restrictions at the same time, 40000 people into wembley stadium. is that a good idea? we are cases are rising here day on day. and of course, there are some that all concerned when they see groups of friends packed outside the stadiums. they are now and indeed in the stadium as well. it will be 50 percent capacity tonight. and then at the semi final and final also at wembley, crowds are expected to be even big now. authority to the coach,
