i won against syrian and it's amazing you know i didn't play well and i'm not physically one hundred percent so it's like you know. there can't be so angry and so even though i'm very i'm happy you know that i can play a. hundred times go over do this whole turn of it. elsewhere second seed petra quit averse survived a second set fight back by four well born under a banner of it serbia was the wimbledon champion held on to win six two seven six zero at least emulate last year's run the last eight stage and waiting to develop in the next round is italian surprised by him sorry irani steamrollered the last chinese standing jang she ronny moving into her maiden quarterfinal at a major event. for me while defending men champion novak djokovic overcame former find this lleyton hewitt in four sets the australian playing in his sixteenth home grand slam was to set a breakdown in the search for reeling off six straight games to become the first

man to take a set off the top seed however the world number one fought back to take fourth six three and this fifth straight quarter final in melbourne. and djokovic place david ferrer in the quarter finals the spaniard a semifinalist last year was a straight set winner of a france's reshown cascade. and meanwhile former finest joe were freed songer is the biggest name to fall so far in the men's draw the french sixty eight going out to kane as she corrie off a fine set thriller the twenty two year old keeping his nerve in this long final rally to become the first japanese man to reach the australian open quarterfinals. and not overwhelmed by his achievement. but he wanted to be. to me makes a lot of history. to be number one player. but that never gives me the pressure. well

a grueling much machinery until next by better rested andy murray the twice beaten finalist booking his place in the next round after kazakh mccall could push can retire the two sets down four seed murray spent less than fifteen minutes on the system in the hot rod laver arena and said he was always a walkover for him for. years boiling away there's nothing there's nothing happening on the court. you know would have been nice to come off and be in light of but played on believable and you stop you know have to do anything that is taking the ball on the court and he you know he wasn't running is making mistakes of first second ball the rally and. there was a complete contrast with a lot of the other than. the n.f.l. now where lawrence tynes kicked a late field goal against san francisco to send the new york giants into the super bowl the new england patriots at that baltimore well first of the n.f.c. championship game a candlestick park where the defense is dominated however in the final period feel

i'm running for just his second touchdown pass to take mario manning is seventeen yards the giants ahead yet so i like the twenty five yard field goal by the forty is the level of the score at seventeen zero to send the game into overtime costs and arrow by receive a call williams led to the giants seizing possession and they run three times to set time's up for his winning kick the giants will have it to me like the two thousand and eight success when they denied the patriots a perfect season but then somebody tried. to magical you know it was magical but it also feel would deserve you know this this been a long journey forcing you know no one day was a shock you don't have a job always an overdue reach also the sought it's a we were you know boss about get things rolling were never born to go chile all we did was go to work you do better well i guess so you know god is work this hard work with the weak. well meanwhile in the a.f.c. baltimore is really coming to missed

a field goal with just eleven seconds remaining as the new england patriots book their super bowl placed by edging the right in this twenty three twenty tom brady scored what proved to be the winning touchdown in the fourth quarter with this one on die for his patriots from behind but though the ravens have the chance to force overtime come to cook his kick to the left of the posts so the patriots have a chance to avenge their two thousand and eight defeat but they again face the giants on february the fifth. they're all friends played well our defense i thought played extremely well fancily i was sure did on a little bit better in the red area. certainly you know not the interceptions but we won that we're moving on. now we want ten straight through to make it eleven. football of the soccer variety now and over in england substitute mario balotelli dramatically netted the injury time penalty to ensure manchester city remain three points clear at the top of the premier league after a string three two win at home to title rivals taught them well city took a quick two goal lead early in the second half thanks to strike some sunny

announcer and joleon lescott but all within nine minutes spurs were level through poacher jermain defoe and the gareth bale thunderbolt all about it at least a warning was quickly booked while avoiding a second yellow for an apparent stamp on scott parker before stepping up to net the winning spot kick and manchester united stated three points behind after danny welbeck scored a late winner as the red devils one to want to toss no antonio valencia had opened in the first injury time for the political run percy levelled in the seventy second minute. and a quick look at the table confirms the city's twenty four elite over united tottenham stay third but now eight points of top spot and defeat roscoe means they trail chelsea by five points in the battle for the final champions league place but in the meantime remonde public agent has finally confirmed that the russian striker has signed a one year extension with top them the thirty year old will remain at white hart lane and till the summer of next year despite having been recently linked to the move to hoffa doesn't clubs both in england and russia probably genco has fallen

down manager harry redknapp pecking order since arriving from spartak moscow four years ago but has scored forty one goals in a hundred night appearances so far for spurs and finally to ice hockey and with just a dozen games to go in the k h l regular season latvian powerhouse dinar rigo are gunning to reach their fourth straight playoffs and we asked their captain the most prolific viewing in n.h.l. history sundays as a lynch what needs to be done to achieve that goal and perhaps capture the coveted k h l crown. that's my consistency consistency around game from mine from day to day and i think that will if we were able to turn that around and have that consistency till the end of the season no matter who we are playing teams the ball was understanding's or below us and have that mental toughness going on down i think we'll have a good good run and buy up some. every team depends how much you

follow her something is there you can there's always room and only you have everything right when you have won the championships and then everything was good i mean there's but always said until you do that yourself my son always something to improve and that's what we want to do as a team myself and say should improve every year every season and get better. we know the other team strengths and weaknesses and that where where that is and and not so we try to see if you really see you as an artist manage what the what we can find out what their weaker spots are in the team what we can do and if it's special then we have a very good chance of winning games and i'm pretty sure the other team know they look at as they they do a very close analysis of our game and our players and they're trying to do the same thing to us so afraid now we do respect a lot of i mean. there's every single team you have to respect them but afraid no

we don't want to be afraid or against. different no question and say that for dynamo regular for a national team there that most of the tires some of they don't get tired at at all i mean they they they're there from the first minute till the last minute of the game no matter what the score is and they're with us in a tough times and good times and all that and and sure we were very fortunate to play at home which some would such a big huge fan base and with the support of the whole country. that's all the sport for now i'll be back in just under two hours with another update please join me in the. world the. science technology innovation all the latest developments from

around russia we've got the future covered.

that's. well see british science it's time to. go. to. market why not. find out what's really happening to the global economy cars report on. the official. from the.

video on demand. an r.s.s. feed in the palm of your. cereal so it's an arab league plan to solve the country's crisis requiring president assad to step down calling into fear and. also. the e.u. formally adopted oil embargo against iran as part of on president is sanctions against the country but there are fears that these sanctions may backfire and join me for the details in a few moments. croatia votes in favor of joining the dead. but a low turnout for the national referendum on protests exposed deep divisions within

the country. and despite the slow start russia markets and a trading session on a positive note. high oil prices we'll have more on that and business and twenty minutes. a very warm welcome to you from all of us here at the moscow. syria has rejected an arab league proposal to resolve the country's crisis that requires president assad to give up power to moscow's plan as interference in its internal affairs and a quote attack on its sovereignty. in the syrian capital. the arab league cooled president bashar al assad to step down and to hand power his deputy they also called for the formation of a national unity government and that would be

a pretty late early parliamentary and presidential elections now those calls have been vehemently rejected by the syrian government here flagrant interference with the internal affairs really the sense here from damascus is that the government here are working on their own reforms they want the arab league mission to focus on their job of course the problem is you've got countries in the arab league like saudi arabia like qatar now seeing the sense that they're reaching democracy to syria when of course they themselves don't have democracy. russia's stance is once again that this should be seeking resolution with alice for an intervention now i've actually spoken to the national coordinator council which is the opposition within the country they welcomed the maven again reiterated their felt that as long as there is no move towards foreign military intervention they're very pleased with the response from the arab league mission because you still got

observers on the ground it's expected that the mission is actually now going to continue possibly for another month and pulled usually. of their powers and their numbers as well of course what you don't want to see happen now is that the arab league mission which is really the only route there remains a teacher seeing dialogue in the country to now have blocks put in its way so the question really is how to make the mission the observer mission more effective because as we've been witnessing in the past couple of weeks really at the moment in the country what you want to be thing is the sightedness and not further division. or civilization. or. two to homes the conflict has moved ever closer to the country's capital and now many damascus suburbs are also in brawls in the conflicts between government forces and the armed opposition. well this is all that's left of many of the houses now

inside just absolutely gutted it broken glass you've got bullet holes lining the walls you've got clothes strewn around the house where people have left them behind fleeing very quickly you can really see here the devastating consequences that this conflict has hurt the picking up the pieces pretty easy amongst the opposition themselves there are a worrying divisions and as the conflicts become increasingly violent there are now areas of the country where it's unclear exactly is in control what do the people here on the image i think the syrian army having control not or it's. not. a lot of numbers a number of simplicity of heart of who's in charge and so you know. the coordination the diversion up with the stuff arab league observers look set to remain in the country for another month trying to build the basis for multi-party

elections even seen by the international community or that you are your sort of or you are into a position you have to put in your mind that you have to work with the other side working with the other side these don't look instead of fighting with thousands kills bringing the different factions to the negotiating table is going to be a major task sara for. damascus syria meanwhile the e.u. has imposed fresh travel bans and asset freezes on the syrian regime as punishment for the ongoing violence but a beirut a boast a political analyst dr martin a shopper says responsibility for the bloodshed should be shared by the syrian opposition as well and ultimately at the end of the day it's time to engage in dialogue. the opposition or what the so-called syrian free army or the desert there is from the syrian army have been also using heavy gunfire against civilians they have been using explosives apparently they have been using and the

armored. rockets and you know some weapons that cannot usually be used in civilian areas and against civilians there is a president said also enjoys. popular support in city one cannot deny this not even the institute in qatar denied this when they did the research last month and they found that fifty five percent of the city and population opposed to down for or didn't move out of president. it's time for the dialogue. has tried some some reform some democratic reforms there is a constitutional council now in syria trying to rewrite the constitution there will be elections in the coming months there are some of the funds i think that the opposition should face because it is of the interest of no one of no one's

interests that need to or steps in there would be destruction and they would be chaos as was the case in libya. well egypt is one of the countries where people are now seeing the consequences of the democracy they fought so hard to achieve newly elected parliament holds its first post revolution session many egyptians feel they've been betrayed by the muslim brotherhood and its march to a majority. this is on sea e.u. nations have formally adopted an unprecedented set of sanctions against iran including a block wide embargo on iranian oil the move targets iran's nuclear program which the islamic republic insists is purely for peaceful purposes. and now reports for us from brussels. it's essential a total oil embargo it will have immediate effect on new contracts but that existing contract will be allowed to run for another six months they've also agreed

on a ban on the gold and gold trade and other precious metals with the iranian central bank all of these of course aiming to financially and economically cripple iran over its controversial nuclear program with western leaders still insisting iran is trying to build nuclear weapons while terror ron denies this now the e.u. embargo follow strict new a u.s. sanctions that were passed into law by president obama in january so as far as the e.u. is concerned by july it will be a full and total implementation of these new sanctions this is unprecedented in terms of the scope and the desired potential effects on iran but it is also one president in terms of its potential economic impact on the european union itself let's not forget the e.u. imports up to twenty percent of the ring in all its second biggest buyer and one of the twenty seven the biggest buyers within that are elite spain and greece the very same countries that are now struggling to deal with that sovereign debt crisis in greece in particular heavily dependent on the range in oil with up to one third of its total imports from iran also it's relying on terror for easier credit terms so

they will definitely have to find alternatives for these countries these are what the leaders will have to talk about how to cushion the potential economic impacts on the several member states and of course because of all the uncertainty oil markets have already reacted pushing oil prices up and higher oil prices will just mean higher prices of goods. reporting there from brussels meantime a senior iranian official has said that if you impose the. world oil trade it will go ahead with its threat so block the vital strait of hormuz oil transit route which editor of the independent news website the colbert report says the threat is unlikely to be carried out any time sir. i think there is no doubt there is some provocation and some testing of the waters quite literally and figuratively going on right now and certainly with the rands recent threats to to block the strait of hormuz now we see the americans sending ships through there to sort of test the defenses so to speak so so i think there is definitely some cat and mouse going on

right now and i think at this point it is saber rattling and testing both sides testing to see how far the other is going to go and as i say at this point i would be extremely shocked to see iran actually pulling out the the option of a mining war or otherwise blockading the strait of hormuz because that seems to me that that's that's pretty much the last card up their sleeve so i don't think they want to put it on the you know on the table too early oddly enough i think the further that iran is pushed into a corner here than war their position will strengthen over time as the as they develop alternative routes for their for their oil exports if they for example increase their trading partnership with china or russia and india as we've seen in recent days they've been scrambling to establish exchanges in other currencies including their local currencies including even asking india to trade in japanese yen so we could see really a fundamental shift in the in the entire dynamic of this that is energy export economy that that's taking place right now and it could actually serve to to

benefit iran in the long run from getting them off of their dependence on the petro dollar. ten minutes past the hour here in moscow this. coming away her later in the program the twists and turns of. the electoral campaign intensifies the presidential hopeful lot of men put him that once they get tough on every question . and e.u. entry ticket has been approved by the people of croatia the yes wasn't as solid as expected with more than half of croats simply ignoring the national referendum the country will become the union's at twenty eight state by july next year but only after all the other members are ratify the croatia was split on the issue with those in opposition saying there's nothing to gain from a bloc currently experiencing its worst ever crisis as ati's tom barton reports the divisions are here to stay even after the yes vote.

violent scenes in the croatian capital it's the country's e.u. referendum that setting the. risk to be behind me the police turn to the protesters away as they take and protest his way situation in. the creation capital and fighting has been going on. these anti protesters say the government is trying to suppress the dissenting voices they are joining with surrender croatia's independence to brussels. yes i believe that couple in another street nearby the foreign minister is trying to convince people that accession is vital to the craft economy actually without the stability the scale can lead it into the credit rating of creation. that is

translated into membership of the union gracious budgets would be in serious trouble everywhere you turn in croatia the e.u. is being discussed but whereas most of the political class no longer question the europhiles stance public views differ widely in this it doesn't tell us what to into or see and touch all our fish and that's our biggest problem you know if you go there after you go but they told us we have to obey the e.u. is regulations those that don't want to obey must stop trading here in memphis even if we have two sons hire an employee and maybe because of that i would be prior to being read to most of the symbols were don't you know there are legitimate worries about sovereignty local industry and economic well being a former state and there are still some voices in parliament that think the benefits of what joining it were the case that we were not going with our heads

high up we're going on our knees because our economy our non-existing our exporting is pretty bad our b.b.b. is very low so we don't really have anything to offer you back out on the streets the arguments quality will not continue with ferocity with such strong emotions it seems unlikely this referendum result the nation's division over european and. tom bottom part. from croatia to that of romania whether still tension in that being one of the newest e.u. member states the country's foreign minister has been fired for criticizing the protesters angry at the government. more than a week now people have been demanding the president and all of his minutes in that sound but the against the backdrop of wage cuts and tax increases any news second poorest country which is struggling to meet the demands of its international creditors i do watch the report sent in by r.t.s.

on broughton who is in the middle of recent violence in bucharest on our web site at c.n.n. dot com. with russia's presidential election just around the corner candidates are ramping up their campaigns prime minister and hope for run of light it may putin is proposing stricter immigration rules in his second major newspaper article in the run up to the vote he's peter oliver reports. but talking on multiculturalism a migration vladimir putin praised what he sees as russia's long history as a multicultural nation a history he says goes back to the days of the russian empire it said that there have been some very serious problems though when it comes to migration and integration of migrants in russia that these problems over the last twenty years since the collapse of the soviet union were very serious indeed in our problems that russia is still struggling to to deal with today speaking about what the results can be of migration going wrong he warned of the rise of nationalism the

rise of xenophobia these type of issues that we saw acted out in real life eight in moscow in two thousand and ten with ethnic clashes taking place i'm right next to the kremlin in the heart of the russian capital he hits out at those that seem nationalism right he hit out at those who have slogans such as stop feeding him stop funding the caucuses saying well the caucuses are a part of russia talking of multiculturalism he said that russia had a very unique system of multiculturalism something very different to say what happens in europe where he said basically multiculturalism had failed and that russia system was something that touched me he's a very different manner over to me and said that there's no way that you can completely get rid of all illegal immigration into russia but if he's elected president in the elections in march city hopes to be able to to make significant cuts to the amount of people that are arriving in russia illegally now he wants to do this by toughening the laws to try and deter people from entering the country

illegally he also wants to see a system put in place not just to monitor foreign immigrants coming into russia but also to monitor internal migrants also by twenty thirty he wants to see an exam put in place to those wanting to come and settled and live and work in russia but they have to be able to pass the russian language exam also an exam on russian culture russian history so those are the things that he wants to put him. do you talk about the issue of migration and multiculturalism in russia. he's part of our reporting right there well as the march vote approach years old of us here at our keeping a close eye on the campaign trail of course you can find more on that on our web site c dot com and pre-election scandals flare up around one particular veteran liberal candidate he may be pushed out of the race due to violations in the registration process all those details are dot com.
