which of course is in full swing. across.

some of football's heavy lifters hitting the pitch staggered to victory against australia after a controversial penalty decision iceland fans though were delighted as their team held. to a draw and took advantage of some sloppy finishing by piru to win their first game while croatia defeated nigeria so his. co-hosts. and peter schmeichel. at. the the. law.

i don't think it's a fair result i think after the play at that pass to play the good game they couldn't play better than what they did with the potential they have i'll always like to praise the team that plays in their limits and i'll start the play in delhi means. that i. have every right to be a trial ends and i have everyone said we will come here against france and you not being there when no one would do if we did we did something. spicy varosha. messi is always trying to die it was clear that he just wasn't going from us and it just wasn't his days now. of course when you miss

a penalty. in the world cup in a moment where you or your team needs that the ball of course that affects you. and after that after that moment he was trying but probably even in superman even in the super players. they are humans and they have feelings and i think the penalty yes affected them. you know it's you know we have to look ahead i think we deserved three points but we have to keep calm and stay focused and i think a lot of what we did was good but in any case for just to try to win the croatian much i was very did my own work i looked at a lot of penalties from messi and i also looked at how i have been behaving in the last couple of penalties or tried to get into their mind so i had a good feeling that you would go. this way today let's look at some highlights go. through. the quero here and it's a good finish because that one that was after twenty minutes typical of the

finishing is absolutely fantastic the problem for argentina was to create chances but. everybody knows that i was always absolutely fantastic now at that point i'm sure i wasn't alone in thinking i k they're going to get a few more now argentina but that didn't happen and iceland got one back very quickly we can see that goal now to. a close range but nonetheless takes a strong yeah striker. is a good finishing a very confident passing these boys from iceland the since they were babies they were eating a lot of meat on breakfast immediately all of them very very strong very very fit and the football they play is perfectly adapted to the way the through the way they are.

i. i i. i . i. it's it's a big day for this michel family and you know i have a son playing in the world cup i thought is that something this is probably the wrong word i don't know thank you thank you just that's a better word thanks for that thank you i'm wearing my vet called i'd like to study that i'm not trying very hard i think i did was

really a nerve wrecking the last period of the game for for me as a fan overall receiving you satisfied with their marks performance i mean marks out of ten what would you give them in terms of performance yeah in terms of output and ten in terms of performance halfway that i think of five i think this team thinking so much more that what really works well today was the defense so they defended really well. altena fans though i was left frustrated after the clash with iceland on saturday

especially those that have pinned hopes on one player in particular. more than two million fans have come to russia to cheer their teams and along with the adults kids too are enjoying being credible atmosphere during this world cup.

some of the tomans. it's going to be. the body of this board that i.c.u. that i started the most but as part of that i see. just that. it's a see. the same is born that i see and they have a. bit of a. move that is they know for us the course is right what's your name. how old are you i'm living all right so you're cheering for. you're from poland. my family. ok so what have you how long have you stayed in moscow so far on the i think one or two days ok how do you find moscow it's really funny there's a lot of plates here with the world cup it makes an amazing have you heard any rumors about like russian hooligans or russian hackers

a while in america of. russian spies how many people are spying on you right now on oh probably like a living thousand people are watching me ok so i knew any one of them could be spies yeah all right so you're you're suspect of you you're not letting your guard down on not. still plenty to look forward to on sunday costa rica playing serbia in samarra and defending champions germany meeting at mexico here in the capital while five time champion with a star struck a name out of take on switzerland. now the face off between the teams will kick off at a rough stuff arena in southern russia the stadium was built especially for the both come.

this is the tenth world cup for switzerland who have participated in the tournament since one thousand nine hundred thirty four and the team is ranked sixth in the world after winning nine games in a row in qualifying the last faceoff with brazil was almost seventy years ago and ended in a tie but switzerland will have to give their best performance this time around with brazil currently the most successful nation at the tournament the squad was unbeaten in its last twelve world cup group games and they've got some devoted fans that follow the team across the ocean.

i. was going through it. and even more devoted brazil fans were on the plane tossed off on.

and with brazil's latest world cup bid getting underway today one of the greats of the game who helped the nation to three wins in the tournament pele takes us back now as he speaks to watch the stan collymore that world cup win brazil lost at home in the medicare not against uruguay for the first time i saw my father he was with another players in my house to loosen the game good that they wouldn't have to be there so my father has been to know that indians then this is. the only as they say to me ok main the main then. so you promised you'll fall there that you would win a world cup one day that was a very bold statement for a nine year old's mike father than going to one who will move up before you are

doing. is that what we will do woke up was very important will be seventy years old and my first will go up or go up. last the bigamist will close i will be joining our special studio in the heart of moscow if you can do stay tuned for a special world cup coverage throughout the day. just on a quarter past here in moscow greece and macedonia have signed an historic accord to resolve a dispute over the naming of the former yugoslav republic under the agreement athens now officially recognizes its neighbor as the republic of north and macedonia however many greeks have been protesting the name change. one hundred

was thousands of people gathered in the greek capital calling for the deal between the two countries to be counselled of the new name northern that macedonia has caused widespread anger in greece as it sounds too similar to the greek province of macedonia was decided upon as a compromise with things which has for years refused to recognize the name republican macedonia was and the programmer towns in just a moment. i

can imagine. i don't know i wasn't there but i can imagine russia defending its national interests in a way that doesn't help the hawks in the united states but couldn't has this image of such hard. and i would blame him for not caring about american public opinion even more because it seems like no matter what he does there's an unfair response number less what i'm saying is it's gotten very personal. this is the leaders all of the u.s. u.s.

delegation on north korea have hailed the historic summit held on tuesday as a success saying it lays the groundwork for the potential denuclearize ation of the korean peninsula in exchange for kim jong un giving up his nuclear arsenal to the old trump is committed to providing security guarantees for pyongyang for a u.s. president suggested after the meeting that the two had strong relationship and they intend to meet again the turnaround in relations came just a month after the pen had been threatening each other with all out war. we have developed. it's very special. north korea best not make any one threats to the united states they will be met with fire fury and have mad men out there shooting rockets all over the place you will have no choice but to totally destroy the north korean rocket man is

a sick puppy. a frightened dog barks louder i will surely indefinitely tame the mentally deranged us do to do with. this history has proven over and over again adversaries can indeed become friends both very honored to sign the document thank you. so the today we had the story meeting you decided to leave the hospital and we're very proud of what took place today it worked out for both of us far better than anybody even predicted it's an honor to be with you .

at. the historic talks were first announced in march but in may kim voice over a military drills between south korea and the u.s. on threaten to call the summit off then nine days later canceled the meeting accusing him of hostility for the next day the white house and pyongyang said things were back on track and on the first of june washington officially announced the summit would go ahead. now while the singapore summit source promised to guarantee the north security in exchange for its denuclearization joanna might have reason to remain wary as what i guess the explains what's not to like a new nuclear disarmament deal potentially one less country with nukes where rule better off all of us and we have this truly historic moment on film.

so why does kim jong jr seems to suspicious could be anything poison assassins or trump just waiting to backstab him the united states will withdraw from the iran nuclear deal come to think of it america's nuclear deals to seem to last exactly as long as the incumbent president take the rainy and deal brock obama his partner has worked on it for years so much work so much effort just for trump to tear it all up don't forget obama negotiated the iran one of the worst disasters the dumbest

deals ever negotiated except don't feel sorry for a bomber just yet george bush his predecessor also struck a nuclear disarmament deal with gadhafi the two leaders discussed that this agreement should help to bring a painful chapter in the history between our two countries closer to closure. it worked gadhafi gave up his nukes and what does a bar do well he goes and bombs gadhafi is army alternately allowing the rebels to gruesomely mud him we came we saw that he died. it's almost like something out of game of thrones and we aren't even done bush in screwed over bill clinton stop and roll back north korea's potentially deadly nuclear program we'll continue to implement the agreement we have reached with that nation get smart it's tough clinton had worked for years to make

a deal with kim jong un's father to prevent then north korea from making a nuclear weapon and bush tore it up as seems to be tradition north korea's regime arming with missiles and weapons of mass destruction. while starving. states like these and their terrorist allies constitute an axis of evil trump is one for tradition in fact he has a habit of tearing up documents memos papers when he's done with them he had a bunch of guys at the white house whose job it was to piece back together the papers he shouldn't have torn up literally had to spend hours per day. piecing together the puzzle prior to taking and here we are generations of presidents generations of the trail double crossing and deception

and it seems that hasn't been lost on kim. on wednesday saudi led forces launched the largest offensive yet on yemen targeting hooty militias in the port city of data data is a vital gateway for food supplies in the country and it's feared the battle for the city could worsen the already critical humanitarian crisis in yemen where it's estimated over eight million people are currently on the brink of starvation aid agencies and the united nations have decried the saudi let incursion the united nations envoy to the country has been holding emotions he talks in the capital in a bid to broker a cease fire after expressing concern over the escalation of this conflict.

saudi arabia has i mean time to find out they are sold with the country's crown prince saying they boosted up incursion serves the interests of the yemeni people. the coalition's operations to liberate data is part of the coalition's unwavering commitment to support the people of yemen against the tyranny imposed by iranian backed militias that are spreading chaos and destruction in yemen addressing the humanitarian situation in a sustainable and effective manner requires liberating yemen from the control of the rebels which intentionally disrupt the flow and distribution of humanitarian supplies it's the first time the riyadh led coalition of nine arab states has tried

to take such a heavily defended cities census incursion and twenty fifteen aid organizations working in the country say it's become increasingly difficult and even dangerous to work there as more and more civilians are getting caught up in the crossfire. he has sought reste to exacerbate an already got us traffic humanitarian situation in yemen and indeed their concerns are twofold first offered to six hundred thousand people who live in her data and who must be spared so here we launch an appeal to all those fighting in this conflict reminding them of the obligation under international law to spare civilians to spare civilian infrastructure such as hospitals and water and and addresses the networks us with us to allow those who would like to free to do so safely but beyond these hoodie days a lifeline for millions and millions of yemenis and later the mind here that yemen is a country of twenty nine million people and three out of each four yemenis need to

many their needs most of these aid comes through the port of data so these aid not be able to flow into these poor it would put that risk literally millions of lives well there are many challenges in. not enough humanitarian goodies he's being provided. after thirty years of for forty years of war. in the field you understand that. we need more and more doctors from. but we need also the warring parties to respect the humanitarian organizations to respect the population to to fix international human eater and low and above all allowing population to have access to food water twelve and this is not happening in yemen or thanks for joining us here on r.t. international sharing a sunday with us more of the week's top stories at the top of the hour of course with your latest well cups that's.

i think. russia took a real blow to its sense of self during the yeltsin years and i remember even six years ago when i first came here people kept apologizing to me for how terrible everything was that this wasn't like america and for people to be ashamed of their country was so different and now i don't really see that i see people are more proud of their country and i think putting his years stalin in particularly the great patriotic war and the victory there as a way to inspire nationalistic pride in. zia says harlan kentucky. the old boy
