and happy to hear a little misty looks back on an incredible week. away to get high russian olympians are in today favorite sport in the sun in preparation for london twenty twelve. let's start with a k h o where there is another new leader at the top of the table sit proudly at the summit after they won and i suffered a surprise defeat i haven't got an overtime win i think beyond that single point enough to topple at bars at the summit after they lost two one to ask them of the least method of course and i have second part of their win over told bars follow them while locking my chiefs for after seven six to think the style of address he checked with the winners there in other games trackball lost three two after a shootout because nets lost while over the a more got a surprise when he's elsewhere. she has reversed russia's luck in the biathlon the thirty two year old getting the team's first victory of the season

with gold in the fifteen kilometer individual race in germany a tee time and in pick champion used to strong final push for the ninth world cup victory of pay a career of a hit all twenty targets to finish just over forty one minutes and forty six seconds germany's answered a handful came second possibly. took sides of a lead over world cup standings in the discipline. that each team member's afifa suspended over allegations of corruption have appealed against their banned from nigeria i'm running to madison to haiti and members of his executive committee i want you to take part in the vote on who would. twenty eighteen and twenty twenty two world cup but it dammit was suspended for three years over claims he intended to take bribes and return to his baseball tamale was given a one year ban for breaching confidentiality rules faces independent appeals committee for say the case is on a date to be a rate. that has been upset at football's asia cup a freak goal is not that three time champion saudi arabia who lost one nil to

jordan the saudis had already fired their coach after being game to syria and this was a must win game for them but forty two minutes in the shot go like a cross and i am going to put it right into the society had lots of chances to live the best of them coming with this. group is that if i was. so big along with japan. one sixty four if you pan over syria you still have a chance of recent quarter finals themselves but it's going to play. a little messi has been reflecting on an amazing week he was voted world football of the year for a second time in a row and then hit a hat trick and barcelona's five through a thrashing of real betis and the copper del rey the three man short list included messages barcelona techniques and the siesta have a place and shabby place that some believe more deserving of the world than we are from time but the way the twenty three year old begins it is probably saw

a lot of these critics ask for the man himself he recently boss of bosses stanley contracted. are still giving me credit for the success of that so. i. think i'm above everything that people see as i've said before i'm i'm very good terms with andrew's and the same with gerry i share a very good relationship with both of them what happened yesterday at the camp no proof that this is a collective effort we should do this it borders not just for the three of us but for the whole school it makes me very peaceful. another two time football or of the year is running and he's just completed his move from ac milan to from langkow in rio de janeiro look at the reception waiting for him in brazil about twenty thousand fans showed up to meet their hero has signed a forty two month contract to rio club and a good ten year stint in european football he says one of the reasons he chose to come back is his desire to return to the national. this.

that is my goal my decision to come back to brazil was based mainly on merit i always thought i would only be back in brazil by the end of my career with the possibility of being a world cup. and after all we are many years over a season give me the motivation to come back with you but i want to return to the machinable team and keep my spot until the world. now a couple of local stars are leading the way goals johannesburg open south african marta mandates on tar and more top the leaderboard going into the second day they both carded a sixty two for their first round of one stroke lead but some big european players like darren clarke we're finding it a bit better. by the end of the day although to be fair he had his moments didn't he and the defending champion chelsea warsaw was also suffering but the odd glimpse of magic to his back in fortieth spot six shots off the pace much more solid was mandates he's never won

a tour event but has started very well here is played two courses for the first couple of rounds and mandates was on the harder east course on the first day while still much driving more he was on the easier west course switching to boxing in britain there it is aura is incompetent mood after getting another chance to fight heavyweight champion that he make the british and commonwealth championships or was originally to take on the ukrainian shortly before christmas but the fight was called off after klitschko picked up an injury german basically will start a strong favorite and will enjoy the backing of the fast majority of the crowd. when the bell rings and the fish however choose or says they expect that hostile atmosphere will bring out the best in him. you know. they want to box in front of like. two hundred three hundred people. i

don't get my stride but when i'm books in front of thirty nine thousand people ready for me to leave when i get my stride so i think the energy of the people in reno is going to be in disguise so i'm just excited right. now finally from the ring to the track rushes pentathlete have one of the strongest records at winning medals at every game since nine hundred sixty four and i focusing on london twenty twelve china and camp in cyprus for me cos i have the sport and the. cyprus has been one of the nations for many years but a couple of decades ago but it's raining a lot and has become a training base for many russian and the athletes and this story is about the national modern. first off a bit of history for those unfamiliar with this highly competitive olympic disciplines with roots that spread all the way to ancient greece just like in modern pentathlon back in the day the sport also consisted of five events at the

ancient olympics the athletes competed in a stadium foot race discus and javelin throw the long jump and wrestling as the greeks modeled each event in accordance with the skills of a perfect soldier at that time toward modern along with. by the founder of the present the games. now back to the present day russia and its predecessor the soviet union have been winning though you places in men's events in every single employee and that it to board since the games in nine hundred sixty four that's a record the country would certainly like to uphold the london. games in twenty twelve however the ladies are hoping to make an impact as well all battle muscle competition for a place on the national team is very high especially for the men's team the dropout rate for women is quite high though as the sport is not for everyone probably about as soon as i have here and i able to get great results vary from unst some of our gals have even become european and world champions within just two years cyprus has

over three hundred sunny days per year and that works perfectly with the national team's winter plans when it's impossible to train outside practically anywhere in russia pentathlete sweet quite certain infrastructure for their preparation and this has been providing just that specific holes sometimes even go beyond traditional requests by their i guess just to give me a hotel where we stayed provided us with a shooting range despite the fact that it's almost impossible to get a permit to shoot in a residential area but still they managed to find a way to make shooting possible for us so they do everything they can to help us in our training they're very hospitable and very attentive to separate economy depends largely on series and during the so-called off season most and surprising hotel owners welcome the athletes from russia and other european countries the hotel hosting the national modern pentathlon same has been doing just that for the last twenty years

a successful business originally started by his father continues to thrive according to the current owner to get many athletes coming to visit us every year due to the good with it and. we start from swimming we get out of paralympic teams and to from triathlon a lot of cyclists visit us because the weather is perfect for outdoor training and other than. financial that we see we get to meet a lot of athletes and become very good friends with them this cypriot government recognises the financial gains from visiting sports teams. and continue to modernize their facilities but in the case with the russian athletes or russians in general it's about more than making money and supporting the economy we are. superior it's love russians because they consider them our loyal friends not just in learning but all across cyprus yeah nice russians have stayed by our side we have to be republicans going through hard times plus your athletes show us

a great example russia has some of the strongest athletes in the world the russians win a lot of medals in the olympic games and world championships but they set an example to superheat awfully and we take great pleasure in the fact that they choose to come here to train each winter before the summer olympics the island of cyprus turns into a major sports training camp with athletes arriving not only from russia and other eastern european countries but western europe as well is it prii unpicked tournaments in the courts for this mediterranean nation well it certainly has all that character is it ramana cost of artsy larnaca cyprus. brings to the end of the sport fanatic whether a set coming at us. hungry for the full story we've got it fast the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers.
