seventeen seconds you're right you're part. of the forum dot com. the kremlin and the white house confirm the first official summit between donald trump and vladimir putin. world cup day fourteen draws to a close and now we know the final standings in. switzerland qualified to the last sixteen favorites brazil no surprise here although a huge surprise group. is in despair for germany as the defending champions go out and while the south korea fails to qualify qualify for the knockout there couldn't be any.

it's eleven pm here in moscow and you're watching altie international live with me in a day or two to welcome to the program the kremlin and the white house have agreed on the first official summit between donald trump and blood and their putin this was revealed during the visit of u.s. national security advisor john bolton to moscow where he met with the russian president reports. this summit is indeed happening what have led to me at putin's aides also said that it was organized before john bolton's visit to moscow but we learned we had a few details as to why or how this summit was organized john bolton said that don't trump ease for mending relations with russia despite criticism both at home at the broad the fact is that it's important for the leaders of these two

countries to meet there are a wide range of issues despite the differences between elsewhere both president trump and president couldn't think they may be able to find constructive solutions i'd like to hear someone say that's a bad idea which you know it's important that it's john bolton saying those words because he's aggressive when it comes to foreign policy he cool russia's alleged meddling in the u.s. elections an act of war and dad now he's backing donald trump saying that we do indeed need this summit that you know it will benefit it will benefit everyone especially at this stage with vladimir putin called the relations not in the best shape which is baps diplomatically very polite others would say that the relations between the united states and russia. are at an all time low i have to begin with regrets a belief stating that relations between russia and the us a not in the best shape

and i said it many times and i want to repeat it at the meeting with you i think this is a result of acute internal political clashes within the u.s. but your visit to moscow gives hope that we'll be able to at least take the first steps toward restoring full relations between our countries. also a number of tough questions asked of john bolton with gods in his prior position is very anti russian classic republican as some as some of the. my colleagues called them during the press conference but he said what he said before what he wrote before. it got decided he would comment on it because it happened before his current posting his national security advisor to donald trump he was also asked a funny question that you know he was treated with more respect than the pope or anglo american jobs with germany because vladimir putin wasn't late to his meeting

with. john bolton at which he elected they said i don't want to reply i don't want to comment on this question but let me also is that. in friendship they both reads rates at the desire med relations to make he said to me good and even offered to share russia's experience of hosting the world cup it was with that i want to congratulate you on winning the right to host the fifa world cup in twenty twenty six we so far managed to organize the world cup appropriately we'll be happy to share our experience in the. most appreciative of your courtesy and graciousness here and i look forward to hearing how you handled the world cup so successfully among other things specific details as to when donald trump to me a booking will meet still secret they've decided to share them synchronously the kremlin and the white house in washington to get that to morrow decide bill

announce a new creation it will be russia the united states it will be a. country hosting the event in a meeting that six back to the last few hours ago and in a joint declaration. has also confirmed that the meeting has been agreed on adding that ukraine and syria are likely to be among the topics of discussion we asked the pentagon official likely about any common ground the two leaders might be able to find. i think first of all they'll agree to disagree on certain things for example on the alleged russian interference in the two thousand and sixteen elections i don't think that that's uppermost in trump's mind but it's primarily business and i think that that's where things are going to be heading i think he also wants to tone down the the confrontation that has been going on as a said i saw i saw today a much more tame bolton who really wanted to push nato right up to the russian

border that seems to be something that seemed to be wanting to defuse a little bit principally because the allies are not forthcoming with paying their share and secondly as he pointed out and hinted it's quite expensive for the u.s. to carry the carry that burden all the time so it's easier to make nice than it is to get nasty and and i think that that's where trump is is going to be heading. now on our top story now let's cross live toss special studio time and some big news from the football world. he's alongside me neil harvey we've already seen the top ranked rating champions west germany did we wondered if brazil might follow them in another big shot but it

hasn't happened it's gone to forming group a brazil brushing server side to nothing switzerland playing out a t two draw with costa rica what do you make of the reaction we were keeping across both of those games but brazil fairly comfortable comfortable played really well today. you know it was a straightforward two nil win serbia didn't have what it took today to put any kind of pressure on congress still and in fact i'm told a lot of the certain players looked straight at. me to reach out for and was sort of acting out all the time he was booked as well and. he would have missed the next game the same with manchester united in mind to match the same you know acting out this is sign of what. has brought to brazil after that humiliation in the last world cup fans have said that he's made them more solid that they you know that the

harder to break down less of the flamboyance more of that sort of rigidity as people if people think that it's a bit the old you know with all the the the characters that do a lot of things that you'd never see or you never see other footballers to then don't watch for still because that's not the team they are very very solid it that difficult to break down he's brought back he. and that got in front of the back row he did score the goal today it's one of the first times i've seen actually pregnant to the say the other half. and you know that there was old was kind of dad to nearly half an hour to go then fine and then you was brought up in india in the old days it would have put another strike and to go for number three and they still had the problem child name who is the most expensive plan the world needed an unbelievable amount of money was paid for him to p.s.g. and he's still trying to impress everyone with his skills and nothing really is

happening for a name i had a couple of chances today that he missed but also it's in the actual game where i think it becomes a problem it's like that is to put the other players to think that the game so decides to science or whenever they have the ball find a man he will do something but they do find name that pick that bits ok but he won't do something he it's not happening for him and i think either he needs a little break he might not even be completely fit because he was injured getting into this tournament. but at his current stand and his current level it might not be a bad idea to give him a little bit of a break because it's not happening for him and once you get a player like that you know a little bit of thinking time and sat on the bench watching the other guy he might come on and he might be a player that is more valuable to the team. is he doing all the tricks or you see you know is into taming fans is he doing all not even not you know so you can't

even say. he might not play for the team but he's doing that it's great to see and we want to see that in football and i'm with him and we want to see all that in football the want to see it at the right time and we want to see that by somebody who's actually living up to the reputation that the player has and i'm a mile from me at the moment hasn't got that where he excels and he's absolutely the best in the world. is play acting. thing about and honestly it's driving me up the rule and today the referee was having none of it and i love the referee for that i never gave him a foul and once we sold him back and replaced perfect referee an absolutely perfect referee then maybe the teacher and he had a good four or five chances will's most expensive player but he certainly not living up to that reputation like we said this is a much more solid looking you know the heart it's a beat the back it won't have affected the brazilian celebrations i'm sure they top

the group they did a pretty comfortably in the end seven points only one goal conceded. he was at the thought that stadium for us and joins us now you see a few brazil fans pay for hind him so this is a case of pretty happy purcel fans alike see job done regardless of the fact maybe not the greatest performances. oh yeah absolutely i'm actually standing right next to a big group of brazilian fans and they were just chanting and dancing and being very happy about the result of the sleeve very comfortable win for them i have to credit the serbian fans as well i was sat just by the serbian and inside the stadium there were also chanting that throughout the whole game pushing to get their team forward it didn't really work out for them but it seems that they're not really completely downbeat they were leaving the stadium and tell me yes they were sad but there's always a next time and they were just happy to be here at this world cup having this opportunity to watch their team like so obviously that's a lot of celebration especially that's actually very funny thing that i noticed

right before the game i was looking around the grounds a spot a stadium and many brazil fans were openly celebrating the results of the germany result to south korea game. which ended germany's chance to see this world cup as we've just seen happy right is known even exhaustion because they're doing it themselves brazil right guys happy. very happy right for sure to follow. xico you. know they really mexico know it's going to be an interesting game indeed and obviously we'll be on top of that as well when it happens oh. and x i think you very much in that came in that game will be played in samoa on july second and it kicks off at five pm so brazil mexico in the next what came they'll be doing yeah they'll be a lot of noise i think specially for mexico fans if they were going to have been story about that mexican fans and the brazilian fans in the same stadium and in

some are oh well that's going to be something we should get tickets that we should go for that i'll tell you get them let's go to lexicon to the roof and do this for us and that's what we talked about the brazil performance neymar try to fix in his flicks didn't produce much there was one quality sometimes and the first all that came because he was thirty six minutes now that was to tino putting the bullet in the gun that right between your side and great. you know what he was she was really fantastic when he played for liverpool and he's just improved on that since his joining off alone and you can see when you when you get used to having players that makes those kind of runs its problems this out of the the bus i don't know the playbook that then you find the players with those kind of passes as well and that was just third posse had in that first half. had one of them. and the other one and then the third one third time lucky but it was and i just put you on the spot

here because getting it was another very big money transfer recently who's more essential to the brazil team at the moment the team you i think i think it's seniors i think the key players. casimir will and senior myself unfortunately had to leave the pitch after ten minutes with an injury and he looked to be in some discomfort and i think he has been absolutely fantastic in this this in. first but a bit of the world cup and hopefully we get to see him again. but that fact that he brought back this kind of building. not the defense but the solidness operand him and that has worked really really well for brazil in teton and and you know it is a different kind of brazil that we see and i'm just toying with the idea that with the way that brazil play now do they have room for someone like name who's not producing ideas past and looks to be not fit so great manager he drops the world's

most expensive player but i think you know you get to these these kind of games now where you have to live on one thousand minutes and that's it you kind you kind of wait and hope and hope and hope and and in fact as you can see the t. to maybe have that because the name came into the world championships without really that much match practice been injured and there was a lot of speculation is he going to be fit that he may be used to three games to sort of. name and came up to match people i don't think it's it's not happened yet but you never know i mean it is i mean neymar when he plays is at his best is a fantastic player and he's someone that we really like and enjoy so watch but i don't enjoy watching him when he's not playing well because then he has another side of him and i don't like that side it's a claim side he's trying to get free kicks and the other players pull than a today he was at it again and he's not i mean stan of you know spending so much time and energy on doing that work on your game and work on what you're good at and

then you still see him trying to do the impossible stuff and it's not happening just to happen for fame at the moment yeah it was a slow progress from brazil today to kind of strangle serbia out of this match serve people still haul but maybe spoiling a full recovery but they were pretty much extinguished on sixty eight minutes this is how brazil doubled by leaflet to kill the space shuttle so. they had. and you know so you know we're never going to come back from that serbia but in this incident. is he's actually committing a felony i'm quite sure he would have been the penalty. for not score but mitra's got himself booked in this situation and again a stupid thing to do. and maybe a fair reflection on how serbia work today it was sort of a little bit off everything all the time not completely where they've been when they played costa ricans with some i'm sure though germany fans would swap places

with brazil fans right now because this is what it means to the fans have seen their team go through to the knockout stages said they are the brazilians. i. do you eat. ok let's take a look at the other group a much that was played tonight and this is testimony we've said it before though teams that are already out of the competition they're still giving their all it means a lot to them to be at world cup and twice costa rica when they hiding it twice they take them back to that ended and it's a pretty good game to watch this space so as a result it was very entertaining and a lot of goals i have to say. if i was a customer a good coach i'd be quite proud of my team this coming week we did say this once

a draw was made called this a coup but that this was has shown should be led by a long way in the most difficult group but it ended up pretty much like everybody had. sort of predicted with brazil winning it switzerland going through second some people said serbia but you know that everyone had to work really hard put and switzerland everything went to play and switzerland were first on the scoresheet and you know everything. was going their way but. the first goal. and then we can see that here this is a i think this is a must have to put the ball in the bucket with some venom. just the beginning don't think about it don't give anybody a chance to put a foot or anything i suspect he doesn't see many goals because you clearly relish the opportunity to do you do you think the celebrations were great i enjoyed need jesus. was how i would be doing it if i was going to smash it and then really revel

in the my kindle lost and we've added us what's what is lost justin he could ice for costa rica and then we had a game and it was it became a game costa rica really went for the win a fantastic header and if it needed a fantastic finish to have really well playing on the swiss go he was excellent in the first five minutes he had two massive saves and one of them i'm putting my neck on the line here i haven't i've only seen it watch i watch it from here and broadcasting but it looks to be one of the saves of this the tournament so i get back to my hotel and we see one more time and then i'll let you know if i still think that tomorrow but in the first five minutes costa rica could have gone easily and easily have gone to know the truth and they didn't but then i let us want to point out our likes and celebration that we took a shit off probably knowing it's

a booking if you take it off they just gave everyone a flash of office door so clever thinking so we're going on what looked like it would be the winning eighty eight minutes which slid back in front yes it then which is fine too but nice to strike out of this just from a. fresh off the bench you know i don't think he's had many charges that he comes in and the finish and i'll tell you people don't know how. difficult that was the technique that would cost to put the ball with that pace with the size foot on the ball that comes to shoot with that accuracy that was that was a fantastic finish now the next finish that we're going to talk about is. you know sometimes it is not easy to be a goalkeeper and when fifa changed on goal rules first of all the referee was quite happy to give a tendency to costa rica right at the end and. gave one two minutes before that but he actually cancel out for us so i eventually got the pendency you know when it

comes off the ball and hits a goalkeeper in the head and he goes in but it's written down as a goal and own goal by the goalkeeper and when you read back in two weeks you probably can't remember that he had the single what did he make a mistake so anyway yeah through the rules will be obviously wanting to claim that goal but as far as you're concerned it. has to be if it hadn't hit you and someone would have gone out no play and the situation would then if been solved a result because you know it goes in they go. in for the goal here is very unfortunate he's a guy he just said to produce some some did well today he's got nothing to being passed about so you see brazil very very comfortable going through this group that was a difficult start for them they played one one with switzerland the first game and everybody so well for so they're going to struggle here for that to happen seven points switzerland i mean they've really had to mess up today yeah but they said they've got a tough match now because they going to play sweden in the last sixteen st

petersburg july third so even though they don't want to get three it's a tough reward for them and i think. that's going to be an interesting game because i'm not saying they play similar kind of football but they get both have a stubbornness to their way of playing and we saw sweden today absolutely mexico in the best possible way. and just look at all to rule now it's filled above the so quickly now we've got these fine. third group matches and that's just simple tennis quickly now filling up with teams that have qualified and which do you like the look of the most if you could only have tickets to one game which would it be of the games yet. the site is obviously going to state that lots of luck i actually think i would i would go to the spain russia game just to to have the atmosphere in the news media i was there yesterday for the france denmark game and it was a bit of a flat experience no goals the last twenty minutes were there that he could have

stopped the games i think in twenty minutes before to be nice to experience to lose . in full flow with with two teams and we have to remember it's a knockout game so it has to be settled the drama that that can create in that arena couldn't leave the intrigue is that spain i think is the team i would say that you have lit up the most when speaking about you believe that they have complete quality throughout the team in the playing the host nation who will have a huge very very supportive crowd behind them so it's going to be something special i didn't you know it was going to and i think for russia the way that that you know they were they were cross for the group of spain portugal the way it always panned out this is good for the alternative would have been to play portugal and such and now. would you do that would you think that i mean you could you are talking plus what thirty thirty three degrees you're playing portugal who it's

a different team you don't really know who's turning up you know ronaldo is going to be difficult they went all the way to the final of the euro's two years ago without winning a single game they won them on penalties when they needed to shoot to decide the game and only in the final and that is in extra time as well only in the final did they win a game so you have this kind of team we don't really know so if i'm if i was a russian play i'd say. i prefer to be in my home in luzhniki eighty thousand people supporting me the atmosphere is going to be fantastic and i know i'm playing in spain but i'll take my chance with you know you're a player at home so you are not that goes a long way in football as mine. to to produce that little bit extra and you just very quickly we're at that stage now we're going to lose we are going to lose some big names we've got france taking on argentina uruguay against portugal there's no hiding anymore no no no or this is going to the world cup so fast been fantastic

the atmosphere in the in the streets of moscow i think most fans they used moscow as a base in the travel out to the to the cities where the games have been played so this place has been absolutely haven and people had left it but it's been the group face now it's a big boys everyone who is strong enough to get through that so it's a tournament scarred in half to sixteen teams going home by the time we start these games and sixteen teams are still in it and every time we have one round it's going to go half and you know you really have to be at your game you have to be performing at the highest of your ability to get through to the next day so. you know it's no surprise you have all these games you have a big game tomorrow you know a really really big game but when the draw was made everyone pointed just portugal spain and then. on the third day when angel in play tells you and it's it's not irrelevant but it is in many ways because i thought through what they are both for

and i'm just wondering how tactical will it be you'll have noticed on a draw any show it to you are there for spaces still available in the team. mates we will see the three page action play out first so i would know poland around little bitty teams out of colombia and japan and senegal and by the time england play belgium in that much anticipated encounter those sides will know who they can face if they finish top or bottom the level longer. different level on points level on goals scored if it's a draw it will come down to the play the yellow and red card so you know there's a moment at the moment there are only separated only one time of the group because they've only got two yellow cards to belgium's three so this is where i could get so. if it's a chore and they end up getting the same amount of have the same amount of. yellow ones. after after the game it goes to draw lots and it's. well

know what we don't even know what's our in this nation age will be something electronic is it going to be who's got the longest stick of the flip of a coin it will be i have an idea that you pick three or four players and then you go to the rich tennis court and you actually play for that play soccer with i'm sure that will be better than what actually actually happens now as we've said both teams a story. stop and it shows a marine one to have known this when he made his predictions on the game head of the match but really weighed up their strengths and weaknesses before and let's say his thoughts on the game. well i was. belgium to decide something because if these magic decide something will be a match full of french because the majority of the belgian players they play in england in the same teams as the english players will be a match with teams and players that know each other amazingly well they know

everything about about each other and lots and lots of quality involved in both teams so if this match means something for polish occasion this is a measure that i don't want to lose. as much they won't want to lose my question to you is. how much will they want to win in england have been playing quite a checking line ups against in all fairness quite weak teams that play three at the back one defensive midfielder will they dad see playing in such a forward manner against the likes of belgium just i think i think that's the way the cowboys are scared he likes to play and i think that's what he's been building up to it's weird in many ways because if you if you look at the english academy system most of the of players in that those academies opin taught how to play four four two so you have a proper left back problem right back you can bring is now when you get to the

national stage and so you play for your country then it's a different system so it's a little bit weird but it has worked for him and it's worked really well and yes you play to sort of week opposition time i was probably the weakest one you know in the whole of the world cup which all the stats also showing. and tunisia i think i thought they gave weak at least a cape and in a fight they didn't give. too much of a five i thought belgium in that thing was excellent so you know when things are working why do you want to change it now we have a game here against i think belgium and i'm a three and there are two or three in the world at the moment so you have a game which in many ways is irrelevant because you're always a qualified so you know you're going to play like we've seen and this is the proof of this will call because it doesn't really matter who you play one should get should you know play some of the stronger teams that are all very strong it doesn't really matter so why change why not just test our we're doing the right thing now

and stay and play exactly in the same way against such a strong opposition. and it's going to be a test for england tomorrow and belgium they've know that looks good and we know that the number of names they have as a josie marina said in the little film that there are so many players playing in the premier league in the belgium squad they will not want to lose that game and they will be they will be using you know all the power when you think about. somebody like kaku up front he's going to play against harry kane and john stones and kyle walker you know three different types of play and the golden gate of course is a very much at the top of the cocking came both in the running that one mogul and you know strikers are like that and you should encourage strikers to think about the got a cold and with a boot because what sometimes strike us will score more goals if they have a target i want to get to that i want to do that we need to strike us at times to be selfish and gamble and in.
