a place to stay on ourselves we way too expensive because moscow is also very far from the national and so we have to travel a lot as well so it's ideal combination to go somewhere far and have very cheap places they have rights and should facilities and so on here all clean and functional and you can have both rooms and a communal well equipped kitchen. from a through train to silicon from some how to market cafes only little games and group policies in the backyard. it looks more like you can simply own space in a hostel cool the oldest and to school school students and the future of accommodation in moscow the lets me see the streets. because you know there is no you ali in fear to tell me how to get involved reading your history it was long ago maybe six or more years ago we just tried and tried to do something like a new hotel and then intend to. relock this a lot we would have been running

. hello welcome to the friday night sports roundup thank you for joining me in the headlines last fall showdown for the winners russia are taking on france in the three way this friday night you can join holders spain in the finals of aussie rules european championships. all conquering all blacks played this new zealand current by eighty three points to seven a game like the rugby world cup. and domination done it but there was a beat it was funny for the wednesday to top the time sheets in their tails practice that he carried in motion in. the first basketball and russia are now taking on france in the semifinals of the european basketball championships in this your idea who can join defending champion spain is sunday's final they've got some

at last moment likely in two thousand and seven while the french have never been crowned champions but enjoyed a five point lead as hard times well earlier strain reached their third final in as many attempts that year in championships going back and forth where i was surprised packages macedonia the first time something finalist did enjoy a strong second quarter but we're still out classed in the one nine hundred eighty . s. well meanwhile whose new zealand have maintained their perfect start to their rugby world cup campaign as the all blacks wrong eighty three points to seven to claim their second straight victory and evoked memories of another crushing defeat of japan sixteen years ago the all blacks scored thirteen tries in total with richard and substitute sonny bill williams each going over twice. consolation try it came from little talking on this hour so it's two wins from so you for the whole simple way and the first team to rack up more than fifty points in the game resulting success but still short of the staggering twenty one tries that using the past to

mate. one hundred forty five point seven feeling in one thousand nine hundred five well missing from this friday's match was injured which of course. they're expected to be big if you go back the next day. and. explain himself inside . the report in a game to get a better than we did last week the japanese play with a very good structure i thought they played the game very well i didn't put the same pressure on us physically is the chromosphere so. praising. improving. for world cup debutantes russia are aiming to regroup after thursday's thirteen six opening defeat to the usa which of course we caught up with their backs coach new zealand to henri paul to discuss their best future opponents and the team to catch the all blacks. blend in

a very bruising encounter against the united states or. probably staying here for a few days and a better match against italy which takes place on the twentieth in nelson all changing now as it is on the new zealand is playing in japan and joining me is a very poor who knows one or two things about. wiring lots of pressure like all the all whites at the moment i mean everyone's been talking about injury problems and stuff like that but i mean just how tough is it for them. yes sort of was no voice was a lot of the. disappointment of losing to us from four key reason is your own food works there under intense pressure. they've built up over the last four years is a game that seems to be for team coming into this world cup. but as china lost the previous two world cups the informed thing doesn't necessarily guarantee you the right to run that's one of them so i think that i'm an easy one the way that

started the world cup was a bit slow against. me i mean we've been showing videos of new zealand play for instance to play is because i mean they think they can learn and we will be showing tapes to them. right at this moment. because we're looking at these games not just the all blacks but they'll be watching the wallabies south africa and i hope the players do pick up some good tips and some good habits but as eight years of coaching staff we won't look at all that's good we got to focus on their obviously our opposition look at our streets it's a bit too late playing out see troy. replace sonny bill williams or so i have a problem we can do is show you what position show the strengths and i fully weaknesses we're going to have strengths and try and work on our game. going

forward when you're up against italy i mean one of the strengths and weaknesses of italians in your opinion. see there is one nation they play against position we can we can come from top level clubs throughout europe. to get the exposure and i've got the experience. strength of them the other day against australia and how they were able to compete for forty minutes really good kicking game from illinois. and they link well below they've always been really good forwards with scrummage is good most of the lineout is very successful got a high percentage of winning on out and stealing against tier one nations well that was henri paul giving his views only all banks and world cup campaign or russia they all returned to the playing field on saturday on. friday following make gruelling encountered united states as they prepare for the next march against italy which you probably don't see live in new zealand. football now and in the

russian premier league clubs are must beat time on saturday to have any real chance of finishing in the top eight at the end of the regular season the top eight teams will progress to the championship round to fight for the title the rest will go into the relegation rounds to decide which two teams will go down that's not our partly not in the table with seven games left to play saturday's other games he's got involved in the response of nashik in the meantime coach for larry carpenter spartak moscow and what's happening after the star striker ballots is banned from six games to three didn't return it the brazilian for what it was penalized in last month's moscow darby's attack want to stop russia a goal from ego i can play of which left a shot stopper sidelined for the six months with a knee injury. now he's determined to resume playing the same as possible. except chad you know. i'm going to carry on working just as i did before the ban i'll still be helping the team and if there's something

of five points behind their opponents of the. early stages of the title race that's new chelsea manager and privileged boss believes the game on spotting early in his tenure has to be judged on the result so if you feel this is the minutes early starts. i think you've been going to manager it is just a long time for a game so this isn't. something wrong with the manager there's something wrong with . clubs well also on sunday manager kenny dalglish will take his liverpool side to top of but says he won't rush back his injured skipper steven gerrard's the thirty one year old midfielder is close to returning after a chronic problem that could be left out of the squad. to choose. which they were going to switch to. see me do for everybody who progresses. very soon from around here as we will do from spain. saw everybody here and some of the players probably fair enough to play. to just wait

and see which very first there's no rush for residents from. motor sports now and electrical problems may have prevented the second practice session for sunday's are going to grow in strain but there are still plenty of reasons to celebrate for the home crowd with local rider danny price that topping the time sheets well we often practice was heavily delayed and eventually suspended that's in the morning dress that left it late to close the fastest lap time of arak on track honda man beach compadres and early pacesetter jorge lorenzo but almost half a second so the defending champion settle for second head of standings leader casey stoner is trailing thirty five points clear at the top of the table. and finally some of russia's most famous footballers are starts to make a dream come true for group of schoolchildren form a spot at mustapha mitchie l.n.h. off the meter and are set to make guest appearances at a children's international st football term in the process our region in southern
