a very good team play good football and they also have experienced i think that it's everything to go for in france came russia's biggest success in women's football came in two thousand and five when they lifted the european and in one thousand nine hundred feet after beating france in their penalty shoot out the goal keeping hair in their day is currently injured but will be fit to play at these heroes tournament and is optimistic about russia's chances would have been. our standard of football is probably lower than our opponents however we expect our strength of character to help us no one expected us to win in two thousand and five as we lost for me to france and now we're open now that we beat them in the final and that's what matters holders germany are regarded as this summer's red hot favorites up to clinching the last five straight titles and seven from ten advance overall oh no russia regular qualifiers for europe stop can be addition getting

through to the knockout stage will be a tough challenge with a do or die battle expected in every match. of course the much other top sides are this year a side we aim at win every game and hope to get to the next stage hopefully luck will be on our side but god forbid there since before a tournament kicks off everything is only a favorite on papers i tell our players that psychological stability is case we. no we can play well we just have to show it on the pitch. frons finished with a perfect record in their qualifying group but russia refused to call themselves underdogs in the group of death and they're ready to press for europe as they begin their campaign against the french on july the twelfth. r.t. . and all that swiftly brings us to the end of part one but stay tuned because we have all the top action from wimbledon and it's monte carlo all bust for a russian boxing champion is preparing to put his tooth out on the line and go away

few points about the player my life. and i knew it was it was a different different much the us open than no one wimbledon is. i just can't believe it techno my head round. surely that. now from an unbelievable much to a tasty match up after a mixed martial arts star alexander yonkers lived up to his nickname of the grim reaper stopping brazilian joe's odigo gallacher in the first round of his first ever cage fight the much anticipated bat between the russian and his twenty seven year old opponent lasted just four minutes and eight seconds you know yanick is only of the fight this year saw him stop american bob suffer the t.k.o. victory and again he made light work of the brazilian who was at class through the first bell a flurry of powerful blows opened up cuts over his nose and the referee had seen enough while thirty one year old evil young code could also return to the ring after during his only boxing match so far four years ago. if i

get any offers from boxing promoter i'll consider them but as of now my animation is really busy i don't even have time to rest after this fight i've got to just one day to relax before going back to training and even next year is already planned out. and let's move to boxing as russian fighter video is set to put his w.p.a. and i.b.o. light welterweight titles on the line when he faces local veteran suliman mowbray in wanna go on july the thirteenth probably not on ian has this preview. eighteen professional belts eighteen wins with eight of them claimed by way of nokia out the boxing record of russia's top light welterweight very easy of use just flawless the drug is stunning hoke also known as king have beeb has already proved he's proud nickname in style claiming the i.b.o.

crown in june twenty. eighth and then previously unbeaten on little tyson guzman in miami for the w.b. a belt in november that year but the mission is still far from complete now we have were goal was to become the world champion and i did you know i want even more to beat all the top guys in this weight class and win the w.b.c. title it's the most important build for me so far it's been done in r.c.s. hands however he's got some serious business to contend with on the way out there on july the thirteenth the thirty year old will put both of his titles on the line in monte carlo against french veteran and former w.b. a super lightweight jam band silly man my ear. so it was i don't care if i'm the underdog or a favorite for the fight it's not worth thinking of at all or i need to know it's my opponent is strong and weak points is

a technical fighter who has great skills good counterpunching i'm sure this is how he will try to catch me. age and speed will definitely be on the russian side. eight years younger and much more explosive and his coach john david jackson is sure the hawk will be there to shine i think in this fight here. i think you can stop him in the later rounds you know solomon the older fighter in acting i don't think yeah he's the power to keep them so i think that will be to really shine and show us from town or from the public oh what a deal if there's a clear favorite to win the bout but would also matters is whether he'll be able to pull on a great show as this is the only way to keep up to the standards of some of the sports greats for your money and duran this is tenacity to the fact that the press oppression is going to keep the pressure on him he never stops you know the punches

are coming from everywhere the desire to be cheery very hard and the longing to run our robots very artsy moscow. now at the world athletics championships here in moscow just a month away fans could be in for a mouth watering spring jewel as you say in bold and tyson gay dominated their respective diamond league meetings last week after making another from boy intentions in paris six times olympic champion bolt blew away the failed of his favorite events the two hundred meters as the world record holder ran the fastest time at the nineteen point seven three seconds hold off fellow jamaican warren we're told shaved one hundredth of a second off the previous best sec by guy at the american trials last month and says he still has room for improvement. i think i could have done better i wanted to have done better but it's just on those things you never get what you wish for sometimes but a positive thing is that i know i need to work on a few things i need to work on i have

a lot more time to work on it so it's all positives. but before that gary lay down the marker in the one hundred meters as the former world champion at pace jamaican a soft power in the sun gave posted nine point seven nine seconds for the second best time of the season after also notching up the fastest result of nine point seven five last month. well staying with speed and formula one champion sebastian vettel remains on course for his full straight title as the red bull driver won his home grand prix in germany for the first time you'll be on his mercy a car spectacularly caught fire early on but that'll help a former champion kimi reichen and after the third overtook his latest teammate ramon groeschel under orders with five laps to go at the no they're going so half way through the season vettel leads binondo alonso by thirty four points at the top of the standings what i can in seven points at the back. right you want that you have to go very well that survive right.

the unbelievable race kimi was pushing very very hard in the end and obviously they tried to do something different with different combo the tires i think we had a very solid very controlled race but i was pushing i think every single up except the loves behind the safety car very happy with the result and incredible to to finally win in germany. and let's finish with my just bought with running to a car trunk champion edward nicholai of leading the line up russia's most grueling rally the silk way got underway on friday a some of the world's best off road races set off from red square the guy charles reports. and here we are at the opening of the fifth annual silk waverley where the drivers will start here in the hearts of moscow at the red square and will end up in the us three hundred in the south of russia covering over four thousand kilometers in just over a week the first silk waverley was in two thousand and nine starting in seven
