we use a hero at the moment for russia who is every decision that he has made has been the right decision and if we suffer to choose from he's made this kind offer and has actually waiting to see fall for him so so far the russian managed to secure off i off the russian team oh if you can talk about the challenges if you score three goals and zuba what you need someone to meet them and he has done that and when he picked the squad and people forget that he picked somebody all fellas think senators that have retired from international football and still is working a stunning and memorable victory for the hosts russia against egypt in st petersburg zob how the shot which is deflected into his own goal by ahmed thought see twelve minutes late good work by mario fernandez on the right fed cherish of who finished quite neatly to make it to nil and after the game we managed to catch up with him to get his emotions confidence in so it's ok but. we can't relax now

it's important for us because it's now we will play against it and the bit is the best team so for their will and you can go home early if you relax three minutes late so awesome job made it three nil he brought the vote down on his chest one post to defend and stunned it tossed the cape off and we also managed to catch up with him in the mix so off to the game. it was but this is the feeling is just amazing the world cup in russia the stadium the atmosphere and to score two goals is just amazing it's great and we are extremely happy that we have won at home that we are able to win and go to the next round because it hasn't happened in a long time. scored a consolation goal from the penalty spot to make it three one but ultimately it wasn't enough the russian player is understandably ecstatic with a result that takes them through to. the last sixteen and brings joy to every

russian. russia one st petersburg is obviously pouncing and when i was in the stadium i found that the fans are not weak chanting the names of the players so i took the streets trying to invent some new chance with the fans. because i can't work which is just the right piece trying to find a piece that i got told not to have but it would be just the course now i know not jobs who know know the job as usual but. i. sure. do you know she understood you knew to have the old law.

of the state law was moral. argument but going out of business that was sure downloading a load of that up with such a good idea that she should w. bush to wean. him. and going sending money to that poor military which he joined as appear on the written shed his impressions of all russia twenty one thousand six. hundred enjoying the atmosphere at the festival what do you think of this woke up something like that i think. has affected to read the book. so how could you say how people are going to feel how many seems to be coach n.z. and during the. five five five five. the records must be your noise or your records

but this is very for me i don't look for the record only with all your experience he thinks of my steamy scenes and far in this comes just now. i've suffered being too much today so they go to say thank you tour today they play good game speed they have everything organisation you related to play a perfect game to the perfect game churning out first ever fricken winner no no no no prison no one of those aware that this surely was about to my impression to begin today with agreed to everything when you need to have your. follow russia fans will pretty much know for certain whether their team is through to the knockout stages after ten night's game between saudi arabia and europe why a win or draw for europe why is all that's needed in a match will be held at the bus stop every.

meanwhile the team's in group b. stop playing their second games on wednesday with portugal taking on morocco first that game is taking place here in moscow and will be tough for the moroccans the atlas lions as they're known are taking part in the world cup for the first time in twenty years iraq and a central defender federal told us his team will do their best. is a mixed team there are players over thirty and there are some promising athletes under

thirty such as iraq who plays for eye exams the damn southampton's buffo there are some very interesting players like the team's captain. from eventis he's a very interesting player and the team's leader as well but above all we are a team a great team of players who work together we're like a family and we know that forty million fans are looking at us and they'll be supporting us all the way because we'll be representing our great country's return to the world cup after twenty eight break and to be honest there are a lot of hoops at home now and we'll do our best to give the homeland the performance it deserves you know that portugal's national football team known as the navigators make their seventh appearance at the world cup of estop player christiane iran aldo holds the team record for the most number of caps and goals he is regarded as one of the greatest players in the game and does have fans all over the world.

and i'm behind. the years now the dream is finally coming to a. lot of different things but i decided not to because i wanted to. so those three things you. got it was a. little bit let me go to a little. bit of it. for me does a proud moment because my country focused on me that the study. i

can spread a message of peace and love from pakistan to russia to football and the geography solution. also playing today iran and spain iran. after beating morocco spain has just one point off the drawing with portugal and all if he was cup co-host showed his thoughts on the upcoming. it's been in the wrong i think as a start as a very experienced coach with multiple. experiences in. all business brain i would say that. we the players that i'm not selected for the world cup will be also a candidate for big things as amazing it is. their potential so i sing spain but

they're relieved that the wrong we'll be there to be in a way where they're going to create some little problems. this is the fifth time that the iranian national teams participating in the world cup and some of their most dedicated fans aren't taking part for the first time either. their mind being. lazy to try and link the right shot to the forty. five. year old kid you are still or whatever you think. i should be that i want to work. is to set forth my team.

i'm probably like this. at its. worst. to take her back sure if it's all. every dollar that the righteous think that's all it still is to this is a fight the most important thing. meanwhile the spanish team won a world cup not so long ago that was in twenty ten becoming the first european team to win outside europe this year is the fifteenth time a strain takes in the throat and much will have a special world cup coverage all day here at all as he international with all the

action from the top. seemed wrong rowles just don't hold. any goals yet to say probably just come out ok and engage with equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. just to look for common ground. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president or injury. or something i want to.

have to do it to be close it's like that before three in the morning can't be good . i'm interested always in the waters and look out. there should. ours are wrapping up your world cup information here on our team let's go to some other world news for you know the u.s. has announced it is leaving the u.n. human rights council secretary of state my pump aoe and other u.s. officials castigated the international body accusing it of hypocrisy and political bias president wants to move the ball forward from day one his called institutions are countries who say one thing and do another and that's precisely the problem

with the human rights council as president trump said at the u.n. general assembly there's a massive source of embarrassment to the united nations that some governments with the greatest human rights records sit on the human rights council for too long to human rights council has been a protector of human rights abusers and a cesspool of political bias for a long time we've heard the trumpet ministrations speak highly critically of the united nations and specifically the un human rights council but now we have the dramatic move of the usa officially withdrawing from the un human rights council not being a member of this body that it's been a long critical of now we've heard from mike pompei o secretary of state and he specifically cited criticism of israel by the un human rights council as a reason for the usa withdrawing from the council's continued and well documented by skins israel is unconscionable. since its creation the council has adopted more

resolutions condemning israel against the rest of the world combined now israel has thanked the united states for their move withdrawing from the council and there have been widespread reactions from elsewhere and the secretary general would have much preferred for the united states to remain in the human rights council the un's human rights architecture plays a very important role in the promotion and protection of human rights worldwide and now we've heard from the executive director of human rights watch mr kenneth roth he responded saying quote the trumpet administration's withdrawal is a sad reflection of its one dimensional human rights policy defending israeli abuses from criticism takes precedence above all else he went on to say other governments will have to redouble their efforts to ensure that the council addresses the world's most serious human rights concerns un human rights council has been quite critical of the united states in a few areas there has been a recent report on poverty in the united states saying that government policies by

the u.s. government have not been addressing the economic rights of the population there have also been concerns widely expressed about the treatment of migrants in the united states most recently regarding the issue of the separation of families along the u.s. border from there we have heard from the president of the u.n. human rights council and he said that the u.s. withdrawal is a topic that should be explicitly discussed by the council we did hear from nikki haley the u.s. ambassador to the united nations and she said that the usa would be continuing to push an agenda of human rights around the world however they would no longer be participating in the un body russia is among the nations continuing its support of the un human rights council according to russia's permanent mission to the un the body is the key international platform for cooperation in this area in addition to moscow says it will continue its work on human rights and plans to run for a place on the council ramsey bowed author and editor of the palestine things the

us quitting the council is actually a good thing. since trump has been in power the u.s. has further cemented its policy of isolation that isolationism of dunn and shawn did not just reach the council but also other international institutions and other american commitments under international law the paris protocol and so forth and so on now i think the just basically decided to do what's in my opinion is a positive thing remove themselves entirely from the human rights council i see it's a positive thing in this is that the u.s. presence in these institutions has only served to target its enemies and to protect israel and its interests. the palestinian family has been prevented from entering a public swimming pool in the southern israeli city of kitty up at the reason that

was given was that they are not residents of the city we spoke to the head of the family he thinks it's a more about their religion. it was a holiday and we wanted to go out we called the polling period gatt and they said we can come when we got there someone went out of the office and told us that no one can get inside today except for the residents of korea get young people who are in front of us arabs as well said what do you mean you said we could come in why are you saying no now and i realized that this all happened just at the time when my wife with her headscarf came in that was the moment when he decided not to let anyone in for eleven years i've been working on different projects bringing together jews and arabs and creating conditions for a joint life here for our future and i don't understand why they make a difference between jews and arabs we're all children of adam yes we have different religions but we are all people as i was so upset when they didn't let us in i felt that it was racist i feel that we arabs are

a minority here we are outcasts because of a poll or thord he is over they haven't responded quite yet there is a similar case and small israeli village of. the public swimming pool there allegedly has an undeclared rule of separate hours for jews and for bedouins in thirty employees have already called for the practice to be ended as it violates an anti discrimination law the locals though are divided over whether such a policy is right. it shouldn't be like this and i think this says swimming pools should be boycotts and no one needs to go to the swimming pool if the bliss is simply did it die and is equal full boat of the size i think you quite ok this area has many people living in here and this is very very long two to ten people what they should do and shouldn't do people need to leave legally without anyone telling them when and where they need to go where they can go if that is legit is between the jews and the business disability in is it minnesota speak the much of em

regional council told us that it's the bedouins who have separate i was blaming them for the tensions it also says the request was made on religious grounds. so i will thanks for joining us here on alt international after the short break it's about a football with peter schmeichel taking a look at how a video assistant referees go about their work during the world cup. right here i mean. do you believe that. this is.

in a world of big partisan. and conspiracies it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made stream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the fat and shouting past each other. it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the troops the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. after three years of conflict it has been estimated that out of a population of twenty seven point four million twenty two point two million people in yemen are in need of humanitarian assistance so why are the u.s. and u.k. so committed to the saudi u.a.e. war on yemen.

hello and welcome to the peter schmeichel show coming to you this week from high above moscow's conic red square giving a glorious view of the very center of the world cup party we've seen all thirty two teams in action already and the mixture of entertaining football and unpredictable results means the fans have been treated to a real celebration of beautiful cane the tournament has been a real melting point of fans coming together from all corners of the world and it's easy to tell you who comes from where by the color of their shirts the red and whites of peru the sky blue and white stripes of the everything in argentina fans and the green some barrels of mexico they've all been the most obvious across

moscow russian fans are young and old came streaming out of the loose nigga stadium with a big smile on their faces after that scene flashed saudi arabia five nil in the opening match and the much anticipated fans from iceland they inspired that team to a draw with argentina with that pre-match viking war dance two million fans has been known to travel to russia and on the squares behind me the party has been going on twenty four hours nonstop since the tournament started last week and on the pitch we've seen everything that we love about football and day that's been delivered by the best players in the world dramatic late goals scored in the nineteenth made it all and beyond and the red card in the third minute ahead trick from right now though and the penalty missed by no other than the you know messi and of course that's also been the introduction of yet more technology into the world's favorite

game. we've all got used to the goal line technology which is already given two goals in the first round of the group games but for these championships fifa have gone one step further into the world of technology and introduced via video assistant referees. so what is vital and how does it work well it's a tool to help referee make correct decisions so the vatsim they have paced in essential video operating room they called a video out ball not to be confused with and that ball is based at the international broadcast center in moscow sitting in front of a bank of screens camera feeds a fed into them and they're able to communicate directly with the referee at each stage of via five radio system the vatsim and here i have to be really careful because the vaccine consists of the video assistant referee and three assistants video assistant referees and the last one

a cold one eva two and you guessed right eva three each member of the team has been selected primarily based on the experience as video match officials so that all referees or assistant referees themselves. the team at the broadcast center they have independent access to all available match footage but under the current rules can only assist the referee in the event of a clear and obvious error all serious missed in the set and in a number of situations so the vast system can intervene whether or not a goal was scored whether a penalty should or should not have been given whether at direct red card should have been awarded all in case of mistaken identity in other words whether a referee has sent off a caution to the wrong player so why exactly is this technology being brought into the game as head of football technology innovation your head is hot similar explain the thinking behind it's

a. can you take me through step by step what happens when you water or and more as it's supposed to do so in general we're talking about for game changing situations. that these are the trigger points for we are the means only when one of these situations is happening on the pitch then really the can support the referee on the pitch so that means if something happens let's say a potential red card ball goes out of play or even if the ball is still in the game in the background there are checks happening we call them silent checks so that means that we are also the entire we are team because we will have four hours or one we are in three hours in this room sitting together they will check immediately is this a potential red card and in the moment when he is clear that this is obvious and very clear for everyone then he will inform the referee on the pitch please delayed a game and that's exactly the moment when the referee on the pitches or it seems

that i missed something so the word he gets please delay that you know it's delayed a game of thought it means that's the moment then when the referee knows on the pitch something happened but it could be also the other way around that the referee on the pitch says oh this something happened i couldn't see it because maybe a player was standing in front of the action or something but he could also ask please check them for me again it seems that maybe i missed something really seriously so. delayed a game and then the ball goes out of play then what happens. and then it's exactly the communication between the. referee on the pitch that means that we are going to really explains what he has seen what what he means that was the clear and obvious and we. there's there's a difference between factual information so was it was the ball out of play or was an offside position because that something is black and white however for work we say when it's not a factual information we will always and that's the more for the referees and

that's probably something you have to ask political arena but then they will send the referee on the side of the field of the monitor or because the referee should see his own eyes to decide yes for me it's also clear and obvious so factual information and the other part where we need interpretation to the different decisions we would like to doesn't have to go to the to the video monitor you can see noise or drive and exactly so if it's a factual information so for for the best example is offside position then he believes because it's black and white we have a line we will see the line ok it's black and white and he will then of course support the he then makes this go to the video monitor he then comes up with what he thinks is a correct decision and then he does what and then it depends what his decision is so either he stays with his initial decision and play goes on or he says. showing

the t.v. signal in this changing decision and if a goal is scored and. the watch the situation again and says no it's no goal then he makes it clear that it's no call given and it starts then depending on the situation can they take it back to minute. yes and no and i'll tell you why because it's start of the attacking face so attacking face it's define the protocol the moment when it starts. the moment when it goes to the build up to the goal at the end sort of build up to go in that interpretation for the referee as well so it's not that we can clearly say that's the moment there's some moments that really to the referee to decide ok that's the moment when the build up to the goal started and that's exactly when the second phase started and from there on everything that is not according to the laws of the game can be and this is a system completely ready should be introduced to the world cup i think first of all it's very important to understand that it's

a little bit different than golan technology a few years ago because golan technology was somehow developed of course with the industry but was developed by fee for at that time now we are using normal broadcast equipment so it's nothing that is specially developed only for we are because in many other sports as you know there are already using it however football as you know we have special special needs and therefore of course we had to test all the different elements one element was of course feeds that feeds arrive especially here for the world cup we have a centralised we are that means that we we have to test silver more we arrived there but also what we already tested in i would argue the club world cup a centralised we are that means that one place where all the feeds coming in so there was tested at the club world cup the next big step for us and where we also have seen many problems was already communication between vir are sitting in a room somewhere and the referee on the pitch also here we did many trolls we did

many experiments with different companies checking everything and we are feeling quite comfortable that it will work at the world cup and the next element was offside and you mention it there was this situation and you can imagine how many may there arrived on that day because everyone was very. we have similar things at the work up and. but also here we tested different providers for technology and for said technology there are two very important things that you have to consider one is of course the lion how accurate is the line and. i can just repeat myself again and again that every line that you see from a normal prod kuster it's nice but this is not one hundred percent accurate because it's not validated by and scientific testing institute that's exactly what we did now we tested all the different providers of the line and the second element you should never forget is the person is still a person involved.
