both are going to qualify so i can imagine a fantastic match between dupion champion. researchers say probably the best team after time i wouldn't be surprised with any result at all i think portugal can win against spain as in spain of course they can win again portugal and the draw will be more than a normal result i think they are. two very good teams spain probably a better team than us. solutions better swards. proportionally quite a solid team i think better than the team that one day you will see more talented young players in the team. so i think probably the group phase one of the best matches if we can because i would be mark bosnich and sports pundit and former goalkeeper for stride to tell us how he sees his team for the tony we had a difficult qualifying campaign we had to go through the playoffs we played syria

in a playoff and basically syria hit the post in the last minute if they'd scored that goal they would have went through then we played on their wrist and beat them quite convincingly then the manager resigned. before he resigned just out of the blue. stepped in he's only had the team maybe for three months in total he's had a camp with him in turkey look it's going to be very very difficult to make it in france that we saw in two thousand and six the same got to last sixteen australia's best record ever in two thousand and ten they got knocked out of the first round but they had the same points as two thousand and six only difference being the goal difference i've been in game two thousand and six we want three one opening game two thousand and ten against germany lost four nil so this game against france is going to be absolutely everything for us we're going to have to leave it there thank you very much and thank you to somebody else just to give you an idea how big these guys are. on the books. to go keep this ring so you found. the opening match was also a very special moment for one russian girl athlete and kind of a. who has down syndrome was the one who got to flip the coin for the start of the

match is a story. you. ask on the floor i would. think she. was right. i mean i personally prefer to hear human rights. just sort of stick out your charade. that's going to. eat up the courage to leave and if that's going to be a serious look. at you know you care because the. characters.

look. you know it's not just angelina who has had the chance to meet some of the world cup stars say that lots of players have been finding the time to enjoy the festivities and also meet up with some of their supporters. a.

quick look at the south today is day three of the world cup as four matches on the line up one will see favorite sergeant tina take on iceland the smallest nation to

reach the tournament so here's what i'll stop pundit thinks might happen that. i was in tune and i would see an incredible talent against a very very happy team has done he's had plays shows happiness and they look and they love to compete without any kind of pressure they're not going to give an easy and this is time to argentina but argentina means the talent so i think they're going to win. the tournament also seen more people join thousands of worshipers on friday morning at russia's main mosque in the capital to celebrate the end of the holy month of ramadan among those celebrating a this time when muslim fans who've traveled here for the world cup. i'm in russia to support morocco's national team today we are playing our first game in some petersburg this is also

a great chance to visit moscow's main mosque to celebrate the end of fasting the atmosphere is great here muslims came here to mark the end of ramadan is different from morocco and i'm taking part in first of pros for the first time. one of the host cities got a big match coming up there so we've been to meet some of the fans up for tonight's spain portugal match here's where they make their trip so far. a lot of people are much actually nicer in welcoming than we did. we anticipated a cold place in both temperature and personality but clearly we found the exact opposite of this place is super clean super nice the people are nice but. i haven't seen anything like. a both teams of how their final training sessions before their big match will take place at the fish to stadium in sochi that was built for the twenty fourteen winter olympics peter schmeichel has been taking a look around. broken

sophisticated and welcome to such a. such he was like the soviets caught this it was where the elite came for the holidays the politicians militaries and axes they all that their own designated sanatorium and this one for instance was for the teachers and the scientists. i wonder if they could see in you and the teammates will appreciate the salvia because this will be priscilla's home for the well called. one of the really really cool things about sochi is you can literally feel on the beach working on your son time in forty minutes later you can feel his snowboarding skiing whatever you fancy and the world cup is in june and even then you could do so we were pretty well i think about two thousand five hundred metres even if you

go and ski the still a lot of things to do up here me for instance i'm going to go for. the go. go . one of the big attractions is of course the all to drop list been for formula one races here so far both us and hamilton tries have won it. in a minute i'm going to see if i can do exactly what these guys have been doing in the last four years.

so don't worry the snow is gone from sochi for that head to head match between spain and rival portugal in the much anticipated group b. clash don't forget spain who got a new manager after sacking their previous boss on wednesday and they're up against the european champions that's going to be well worth the watch and it starts at nine pm moscow time before that less than an hour from now the other game is going to see around looking to end morocco's eighteen game unbeaten run let's go live to the host city have some petersburg. is there i can hear the noise behind you he said how he manages to get some rest of the queen all the excitement of the twenty hours of daylight that you get to parents and teachers but what's it like at the moment no i don't think you can hear me you can see me here the horns and of the bruises and such like lisa can you hear me. i love isa in st petersburg i can now yes i jolly good that's excellent stuff no no you got a bit of a vested interest here guys a night but i know you'll be professional and impartial throughout what's it like

up in russia's northern capital right now. it's really amazing atmosphere here called in and it has been four were really since yesterday and today as well and really the atmosphere building go ahead of that game group became between iran and here at this really stunning new stadium in st petersburg. almost sixty five thousand capacity judging by the streams the streams of people that should be full of sons i have to say again not being biased but it does seem that there are more iranians in attendance than them or can counterparts but both sides have been very loud in the build up to this game and of course today is the holy day of ramadan aid which signals the end of the month of ramadan and so of course both these nations being muslim majority countries the fans were in the fans today and were keen to show their love and wish each other well. i like you don't

have to be so much i mean you miss the old days they existed so well until the. old friends of you all the friends outside of the soccer match you know. i like to wish all the fellow muslims a happy pleasure to the moroccans our opponents today. a lot of sugar and he says you know people we don't i mean. we're going to be great. but i think. now that came to be take place behind me in this stadium will be a group b. of course spain and portugal also in the same group but this games expected to be tight two teams with very impressive defensive records in the qualifying stages

before this tournament so and they'll be hoping to keep it as tight as possible and perhaps try to nick a goal at the end but again my colors for really to the iranian must. ok i know you're staying powerful fronting second from venus for now so i will check in with you next hour charlie into pittsburgh thanks for that. by getting up to speed on about half an hour ago now going. to a group a so why grab a light go through defend a house i have enough to snatch all three points against egypt and there's still there's too much is to go to look forward to today the other one power from the iran iraq obama looking forward to spain against portugal stay with us for that on the last national coverage throughout the next month of the world cup every russia .

fight for many clubs over the years so i know the game and so i got. the ball isn't only about what happens on the pitch for the final school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the super money. and spending to twenty million. it's an experience like nothing else because i want to share what i think what i

know about the beautiful game great so well chance for. peace. moving on to other big stories this hour donald trump apparently told world leaders at last week's g. seven summit in canada that crimea rightfully belongs to russia details of a supposed conversation of appeared on the online news source but speed trouble also reportedly questioned why the west sided with ukraine over the issue so may become breaks down the story. according to buzz feed at trump told leaders at the g. seven summit that crimea is russian because everyone speaks russian there on the second day of this summit truck made a few comments in regards to russia saying it used to be the g eight before russia was taked out and he also called for russia to be reinstated saying that they should be at the table so that they can solve the world's problems together

naturally some leaders were opposed to this including mccrone and merkel but first some background of crimea joined russia after a referendum was held were almost ninety seven percent of the population voted to join russia and international observers were present at this referendum but it's pretty big that this is all coming from a u.s. president so we'll just have to see what happens well when asked whether to clarify whether trump actually made those comments or not the white house press secretary would not be drawn. anywhere of any comment like that i know it's been reported but i'm not going to comment on a private conversation i wasn't part of that i don't have information. the united nations has held an emergency session on the saudi led offensive on the rebel held yemeni port of the data the operation is the largest of the three year long war in yemen aid groups say that it will worsen the country's humanitarian crisis and could endanger millions of lives in saudi arabia insists that the goal is to

dislodge the rebel fighters from the data and bring it back to legitimate rule only boy who has more on the u.n. meeting well this closed door u.n. security council meeting was held at britain's request after the saudi led coalition launched a full scale attack on the ports of data the saudi led coalition wants to wrestle back control of the strategically important port but the problem is that yemen has been suffering as a result of the civil war for some three years now and the concern is that this new offensive is going to make the situation in yemen even worse although for many it's hard to imagine how it could get any worse the war there is already described as the planet's worst humanitarian disaster and aid agencies have been sounding the alarm throughout this conflict but they are particularly alarmed by what's happening now how data happens to be the port where seventy percent of yemen students supplies come through and the u.n.

in the red cross have had to withdraw their stuff from the port city and a full scale attack on her day to put even more yemenis at risk of starvation and it could force hundreds of thousands of people from their homes as well as aid organizations are warning so it was britain that called this meeting the foreign secretary boris johnson had tweeted earlier that yemen is the world's worst humanitarian crisis and that he brought together key international partners to stress the need for humanitarian access and. and a political solution but what boris johnson didn't mention in that tweet is that the u.k. is practically saudi arabia's best friend on the world stage especially when it comes to the arms trade the british government has licensed over four point six billion pounds worth of weapons to saudi forces since the war started back in twenty fifteen and about sixteen thousand yemeni civilians have died since twenty fifteen when the saudi led coalition first started bombing iranian backed who's the

rebels there so campaign is in the u.k. say this isn't about a u.n. security council meets and what's needed is a change in policy from the u.k. government and there are questions over whether a security council meeting or a number of them can achieve anything while the u.k. continues its policy of arming the saudis or human rights campaigner sam walton told us that the lack of coverage of the offensive against a dangerous extrude be worrying given the implications that it could have. what we've seen in yemen has been called in the u.n. a deliberate tactic of starvation by the saudi arabian led coalition. seventy percent of the food imports the aid imports that are coming into yemen coming through this port. and that's why there's such concern around the world about what's happening in this port the u.n.

are saying two hundred fifty thousand people could die so if the children are saying three hundred eighty thousand people could be displaced if attacked so there's real humanitarian consequences that are going to happen if this port is attacked what's shocking is that this hasn't really stopped the ukase determination to on saudi arabia and you know they've said precious little about the humanitarian consequences of an attack on the port of today and that's if your global views of this our world cup squad pick up the mantle for russia twenty eighteen half an hour from now and drew farmer peter schmeichel live in some petersburg to get you up to speed on what i'm so far and what to expect in the coming hours thanks for watching this is r.t. international. q
