one who finished a surprise to fifth in the premier league i appreciate that capello called me up i'm really happy as it's every kid's dream but i understand that i have to prove i'm worth it i don't flatter myself russia have a slight tactical advantage as three players from league runners up xeni and have been named in portugal squad yet the whole nation knows that the match is a proverbial six pointer and was just four matches to go for them next friday's battle could be do or die so russia finished their preparations on home soil and now move to spain where they will continue their training had of the encounter against portugal in lee's month on june the seventh concern about that of. last cold. well meanwhile russian premier league champions says gabbett angy for three on penalties to clinch a league and cup double and wrap up their campaign in style after a rocky beginning stevens has more. at the start of the season few might have bet on cisco in the title race two defeats in their first three premier league matches

a forty two year old's well disciplined approach has been widely appreciated but i think if you get the title you need go really good players and also learn a really good manager i feel the manager is the best thing. showed his tactical flexibility when the side's top four would say dude missed most of the campaign through injury the coach on earth the striking skills of flamboyant nigeria winger made musette they became team center forward and top scorer out while the final boost in attack came from brazil his club legend vaknin love rejoined the moscow side for a third time in january. tim went over women to finish what i'm very happy to be back here because cisco is my second home and the fans love me and give me

we brought you for your media project c.d.o. darty dot com. welcome back to part two of the sports show and to the french open where former champion roger federer survived a scare to reach two more while stones in paris the first moscow trailed by two sets to want to get a local favorite deal seymour but stepped up a gear to prevail in five and move into his record thirty sixth great grand slam quarter final while he was also winner by nine hundred eighty four the thirty one year old. former women's champion spell on the kuznetsova also reach the last eight after the unseated russian defeated germany's angelica three sets but your next place is top seed serena williams the in-form american brushed aside reports of injury of italy and has yet to drop a set in paris. well kuznetsova was one of the russian women who

exploded on to the grand slam scene in two thousand and four winning three of that year's four top events since then they've made it seven majors maria sharapova taking four of them and richard vanpool feet went to meet the talented teenager who's hoping to be russia's next star of the court. so if usual looks born to be a tennis player after first picking up a racquet at your age of six despite now being just thirteen she's already broken into the world's top one thousand with a career best of nine hundred twelve and has won seventeen of a twenty pretty much business year so the young muscovites has no regrets about choosing tennis so the gymnastics. you know employer matches it's really good feeling when you won the point or you when you just come to the court and play you have like a good feeling with this sophia surname means peaceful in russian and she's already had a busy life the home schooled teenager is glued to social networks especially instagram

and enjoys maps in english as well of course as playing tennis in her two handed backhand style and in looks bears a strong resemblance to maria sharapova but she isn't interested in comparisons she just wants to lead a normal life it's difficult to combine but they just make the program for all the air like mad everything and i try to make it for the program and that's their go to exit and. of course she's still just a child but she's intelligent and she can switch roles easily on the court she's serious but off the court thankfully she acts her age she loves little children and dogs and that says a lot about her character she's been playing sports for eight years which has to have discipline and to be a fighter what show up over exploded on to the grand slam scene in two thousand and four winning wimbledon and she's since then gone on to clinch a career grand slam after moving to florida at the age of seven to enroll them in

nicola tyree tennis academy also fear is based at home in moscow though she did spend last year in belgium where a father was based on business she's accompanied to training under tournament's by a mother natalia who is a former i'm going to cyclist but with little outside help it's a family to pay. one hundred thousand dollars a year bill to support her career. or get a little it's a bit disappointing that we don't get any help from the russian tennis federation but we're used to this there are a lot of parents in russia in opposition russian parents will do anything for their children and of course when the exception female tennis players start out martina hingis was just twelve when she won the junior french open title or and sharapova was seventy when she won wimbledon so severely is very little motivation to do what she loves and trying to excel on the junior circuits richard ball three d'arcy.

from a promising teen to a pole vault legend a surrogate booker became the sixth candidate to run for the presidency of the international olympic committee and the ukrainian pledges to put his income to a good cause. if i will be in this position i will donate this money for charity program i will not receive this salary from this position this position for me this unique exception though and i think this is really great. to serve that movement in this city but the president should be paid because he is responsible my book i was speaking at the sport accord convention in st petersburg by two thousand and six olympic speed skating champion spent long as your data also unveiled the medals for the twenty fourteen staci games russia's first winter olympics and paralympics held at the black sea resort in eight months time while istanbul madrid and tokyo presented their bids for the twenty twenty

summit games the i.o.c. also voted in favor of the embattled sport of wrestling to stay in the running for a twenty twenty berth a move hailed by russian president vladimir putin. you've already cut the list down to three sports included wrestling which is loved in two hundred and nine countries and i hope the final decision will be fairly well grounded and will help consolidate and develop olympic movement that has always relied on its ancient traditions and wrestling as we know it is one of the fundamental sports traditional at the olympic games so i. am staying on the olympic flame this september and brown as aries the i.o.c. will decide which one of three sports to include in the twenty twenty some odd games and until this week wakeboarding had been a potential candidate so michael craft janko went down to the water to see just why wakeboarding a dynamic fusion of snowboarding and water ski flying along towed by speedboat or

cable is fast becoming synonymous with extreme sport and some of. its origins stem from the mid eighty's in australia with the invention of the. a cross between them and. since then wakeboarding has grown from a past time into one of the world's fastest growing competitive sports with hosting its biggest ever event this month whiteboarding in russia is a huge potential every year is getting bigger and bigger and bigger it just look how many. times they always sell this sell many cable parts around russia now most likely it is that we have the best cable park around russia wakeboard yeah oh it's so big so different. about the way how did you know right away or it can be a cable. this isn't just the reverse cable up and down so there's

potential wakeboarding has been part of the world games for non olympic discipline since two thousand and five and its federation has been an official partner since one nine hundred sixty seven. add this to the sports marketing popularity and modernizes doubting the future of such olympic stalwarts as wrestling means it wasn't too surprising wakeboarding stood an outside chance of keeping the six other candidates from twenty twenty. five if you take snowboarding as an example as soon as it was included in the olympics it means support from the government so should wake boarding being included in the olympics i'm certain way courts will be popping up everywhere it's an extreme sport in the us is youth beauty energy ask anyone other interesting greco-roman wrestling you'll be able to count them on one hand but ask them if they like snowboarding and you'll get a much bigger response while possible olympic inclusion certainly gave the sport extra publicity there are some in the wake board camp that are very wary such

exposure could damage the sport's free spirit while the olympic committee itself questioned the way the sport should be presented at the games but something about the olympic games has got to be more. table then the boat guys call it committed they have a problem with. the driver not allowed just to let the driver because there is next a person ever again but not a bit more but a bit down so you know way it can be ob and out so it's not by everyone yeah but given what very much i think we have a really really good chance to have it so even though wakeboarding failed to make the final cut for twenty twenty with wrestling squash and softball among those left to duke it out for the coveted olympic but one thing seems certain the wakeboarding juggernaut is rumbling and seems destined to shake new ground with or without olympic glory. marketing to. hand over the weekend moscow defied

a few storms to host the russian beach tennis championships as the nation's players prepare for next month's well team event but each tennis is a doubles game and was invented by the italians who have donated every well championships since they began in two thousand and nine the world team championships also includes mixed doubles and moscow hosted the first of three straight team events last year where russia finished. last year was great fifteen of the best teams from all over the world gathered here and it looked like that that was cup on the sand we gained a lot of experience then and i'm sure this year it will be even better. now russia has long been an ice hockey powerhouse but their field hockey team came up just short of taking another step towards next year's world championships in the netherlands russia one for their five group matches at their home leg of the worldly just outside moscow including coming back to beat neighbors ukraine three

one later lost to japan by the same school and with only one semifinal spot on offer it was the japanese who advance to the next thing i. now the stars of film and television politicians and other v.i.p.'s all took to the greens on friday for a golf tournament in aid of a kids' charity on the eve of international children's day june first and michael crouch and go grab his clubs and went along. well the weather has certainly played their annual charity golf tournament just outside of moscow but as you can see here today the weather is immaculate plus twenty five degrees celsius and perfect weather to be teeing off and it's the eighteenth time the diplomatic quarter of the russian foreign ministry has held this charity tournament with donations to take part coming mainly from the diplomatic and business communities that love playing golf today you might see several of them and both of those. are gold that's why it's goal of. attract as

fundraisers. those companies are global issues who actually were working it's a financial institutions as well as construction companies while it seems a closed affair vents organizes insist anyone regardless of the size of their donation can and should participate in this year's competition like its predecessors was never about glory but rather to have fun on the fairway while contributing to a good cause and also having a chance to mingle to playing golf in moscow a country club with this tournament. we give back to the community this. is a foreign diplomat it gives me the occasion to meet russian citizens. you need tork and one part of the community that will benefit from the day's goal is a local orphanage which is provided with modern computers and some of its
