reach. out to the right to be press was like before three in the morning can't be good that i'm interested always in the waters in the house. yes sure. hello good evening from a drawing go never mind the underdogs the top dogs who are back in charge of this world cup brazil swept past mexico earlier in some hour and the big question now if we were in the quarter final would be belgium welcome to our special coverage twenty eighteen world cup here in the russian capital. and and as we know belgium are taking on japan in rostock where the score is nil nil at half time well andy i

mean it was an eventful day wasn't it well shall repeat what i said before i was upset today simply because we've seen so many of this world cup i think the gulf between smaller same's and larger teams is definitely lessened over the last four years perhaps i think japan so far are doing well belgium in my mind are on top just look at the stats. just fifty five percent possession shots compared to pounds three although a big that doesn't always mean that those shots are on target so he will remain a big difference between this game tonight and the game i watched yesterday in russia russia were just defending so much on that penalty they had two blocks of four but this time around japan i actually think trying to attack go forward when they can and the wings. have to try and work something if they can and they get the opportunity and i think i was in a slightly wary that i think that's right and i think it's like we said before and i would also touch upon the game when japan played senegal in the advice they take before when you look at the height difference if nothing else you look at the

belgian team particularly the defense that block of three across the back absolutely it looks like no comparison so that means the japanese must play to feet and they do technically they've been fantastic. you've also got a new you've got a soccer all those guys the way that they're particularly breaking for japan on the left hand side coming in but also how they're spraying that ball. around they're not exactly resting on their laurels as you said they're not playing like russia they are defending in the same way they're very quick to get back but they're also pushing forward as well using their wings and their own sexing those that established back three and the other hand that it was a defender for belgium that's going to be a pretty good chance in that it was year wasn't it was some company had a great chance for a free kick i think he came in at the far post but it the ball is just gone too far from you couldn't quite make a good connection and prior to that he had a couple of chances in the box and has a half chances yet really get a shot away from the same with hazard as well towards the end of the first half but in my mind i think japan are happy a team definitely oh i totally agree with that i mean as we know we've said it

before belgium this is the golden generation but interestingly we had some belgian journalist that we've been speaking to talking about what the reaction is back back in belgium and they're really delighted with how the team's doing but they're a bit like england in that they know they've got this fantastic generation of players that do in the in the top leagues they're very familiar particularly to the english but the belgian public weren't really expecting too much from their team the fans we've seen here the belgian fans like that so you loved it but back home the belgians are rather skeptical so as we know as we've picked a team's there are starting to find for france a finding for the big teams brazil that you touched on earlier you can't deny they're getting better and better so perhaps belgium are coming good at the right time but yet fair on japan they're doing pretty well and we go back to the upsets me saying that this world cup all started with iceland didn't get in that draw with argentina they cut among the pigeon straight and then we had south korea germany germany were no longer we've had spain defeated by russia yesterday i mean who will go everybody talks about what another big shock what another big shock but the fact

is we're seeing you know one shock after another after another so something's definitely happened i think i'm not the expert enough to talk to peter schmeichel in germany when we can but something appears to have happened in world football the gap is definitely smaller between. the bigger teams are missing and also it's a change in tactics as well if we look back at this. blame game is all about ticky tacky before it's been so successful but won the world cup in twenty ten they won the european championships you know two thousand and eight to twenty twelve they've had that star where having possession was the thing wasn't there and now and then there was an emphasis now that's gone off defending they said it's becoming less of a contact sport it is more a case of that's having free flowing football but they are has played it part of this tournament as well we're getting more penalties we're getting more excitement we get a really trepidation about technology coming in would it slow the game done so we've got a change in how the game is being played and that is narrowing that gap it's making potentially upset one of those i have to so you are what you watch them in that maybe the purists would've enjoyed russia or the division i yeah perhaps. then it

all kicked off and was very enjoyable to watch but overall i've enjoyed the matches between some really good football certainly seen plenty of goals and i do expect to see more go tonight yeah definitely i mean we had one nil no savage more that was fun as i don't like as far as i'm aware and i'm for. exactly that really has made it what it is well and that was after thirty seven games at this world cup i mean that's remarkable i mean that goes that blows all the history books so what we've see these great football attacking football and the host nation this week before doing so well is giving everybody a lift and also proof that you don't have to have that beautiful free flowing football because it's about doing well and tournament so that's exactly what some of the some of the big teams haven't done so well and the fact that big teams have left hasn't left the competition flatted always made it better it has resonated so most people said well come on and you can you can win this but you know not to say all the big teams have gone at all you know france brazil is still there and then

you're a choir still there so i think the still plenty of entertaining football ahead and plenty of sort of what we call mismatches normally is proving not to be the case every year the close run affair so what about meaningless that i mean it would be a chance to dream is it an opportunity for the teams that well we've got sixty. is this how you know i started home thinking about you know what we could get to the semi's and then they could reach me russia in the sense i mean they're even three weeks i couldn't even believe i would be saying it's not because i don't feel it's yeah absolutely well let's see how this one pans out there but it's still there at the moment so what do you predict what do you think that you know i cannot say belgian not just pressing too much so i would say i thought about money and i would say belgium will get through by one or two goals i would say he was i want to take us but but compared to the yesterday's game i think japan are doing much better than russia another looking under less pressure perhaps have a chance of scoring more than russia vs dates so. i k i stick my neck out that i'm

going to say that i think i do think belgium would do it but i think it could be a close run thing i'm going to say to one after extra time we haven't had the extra talk of penalties today because brazil they played they played so well they didn't really need to get out a second or third year i don't think you can beat the mexicans but yesterday it was all extra time it was penalties it was brilliant so i think this water let's say ok now we have got a reporter down just letting people know we have got from where we do we plan to go to him that's why we're talking for so long because we're going to tell him up and he's here and that he's right that this. is where this area just tell us what are your thoughts not first off most of the atmosphere being my particular among the japan fans i must be very happy. the little guys well i can tell you first of all surprisingly perhaps not many people from belgium or japan the made it here i mean i was guessing this was going

to. look at a route myself ahead of the match and now having been inside the stadium i can confirm that i'll have to ask the people from japan and from belgium why they think this happened but for now i guess i cannot tell you the reason some. that i should point out i've spoken to a number of belgian vans before the match and they were absolutely sure this was going to be a piece of cake for them take a listen. we're in a great country like russia we feel like this is our moment doesn't is going to play japan difficult seem to say we're going to win five zero i'm saying this on t.v. and then we're going to play brazil and then after brazil going to play from us and then we meet you russians in finals i'm not sure we're going to play fronts you might play your way but anyway we have fate right now argentina germany spain and portugal are out so our belgians the number one favorites no i think not the

number one but top three yeah yeah i think adverse ill is still number one favorites after the game today but it's yeah they're there if they go and go true brazil i think their number one favorite. well as you can see during the first how yes the belgians had a lot of attempts but the score is still nil mills so this is an easy for them very challenging in as you've seen at the end of the second they have japan almost scored suddenly and this is all these three days delightful for the fans from japan and perhaps out explains why they were more active and let's see if that changes in the second half but again that makes it even more interesting to watch for the many locals who are attending yes they are a majority inside the stadium this time but beautiful game no goals so far and

for a great second house hopefully. they will let you get back into that stadium before we get. going to it's been very light and i think this is still bring that save is one brewing in football terms then real stuff i will get back to full time leave home on maternity ward in thailand is getting into the twenty eight. well. all the new born babies that have been dressed up in the kits of the nations playing in russia. i felt sure you could see and you can see here that the babies are really enjoy giving in to the good of the.

parents french british well they're there how people all over because of all they really love to watch the world cup it's great. well that we are babies happy in thailand to say oh it's lovely i actually i wish i was in talking to me because they want their lives where they're going to fly rowing force ten times but anyway let's get back to the football because the winner of tonight's match will eventually play brazil in the quarter finals not going to be played. in a few days time and the earlier match to go to plan for brazil as they use past mexico taken ill there are some of the highlights from that one.

i'm. so. i. well the post go tankersley of that money that you want tapping in from close range but aside from his goal i'm also an assistant was a gnostic to his performance that spawned some criticism you see rolling around near the top and i can meet didn't seem like a serious knee injury but instead some serious play acting to fool the referee i'm a little dog. liberal star has

a reputation disney for that that precedes him first so yeah we are some funds and some are if they could actually do that best imitation so. give us three so i can. try. but. let's let. it sit. here all the albums are good but i promise that.

it isn't going to do this. well look i can. tell you i'm truly sorry to say we got this letter card oh my god took his glasses off. to another guy. who could run well i don't know why place to so many cameras except i don't this isn't embarrassing if you watch it but this thing is one of our. you who is meant to go to the world but then what he did because he changed jobs he actually reviewed the action and he said it would have

been a red card because the spots the defect that was coming in and it wasn't supported but then the debate followed in the fact that it was so soft it was effectively. is like doing that yeah he was rolling around it i get it we've seen as i said before we have it personally i think it spoils the game but there are stars of the game and nobody tells them to stop really do the real you know might get the future help and i. don't know what can you do about that retrospectively. that can you say this is a relation is that one gentleman it is but i mean he's a laughingstock. give us some. goodness make. money well look it's kicked off again in a lot of it's belgium against japan the second half just starting to prizing many japan have managed to hold on to this part for me. yet but this is what is going in the world cup so we'll keep you posted on that time if you feel like you're missing

out on all the big action you can immerse yourself in the fan experience to wherever you are in the world at the moment with our special fans our if you project well we've chosen the best pictures and video dedicated to all things. i. pad. you. know i. i.

i i i i. i. guess the social media world. absolutely is very entertaining particularly last night just a quick recap of everything that's happened in the things that you've missed and some of them are just. against. your plan. that one of those a breakaway looked like belgium had been talking the been pressing from the beginning of the hoff and as it was it was a loose ball come straight through to the forward that he was. breaking forward he took the ball really well which one of the. many put it on the. absolutely

brilliant leading one off cracking finish cracking forty minutes we'll be back with more on the top of the next. in twenty forty you know bloody revolution to tikrit the demonstrations going from being relatively peaceful political protests to be increasingly violent revolution is always spontaneous or is it you know hiccup what if i mean your list put video and put him in the new bill is not an idea it's pulling it out of the former ukrainian president recalls the events of twenty forty. of those who took. it invested over five billion dollars to assist ukraine in these and other goals that

will ensure a secure and prosperous and democratic. apply for many clubs over the years so i know the game inside guides. football isn't only about what happens on the pitch pull the funnel school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the superman each of killian erroneous and spending two hundred twenty million and one player. it's an experience like nothing else i want to because i want to show what i think what i know about the beautiful guy great so what chance with. the base this minute.

thank you. thank. you r.t. international away from football news on to our global news update now and we start with mexico which is witness the tectonic shift in its political landscape with a left wing outsider claiming victory in sunday's presidential election. looking at the man who set the take power and also how his tenure could exacerbate tensions with the united states. andray manual lopez obrador or

i'm low for short the new and somewhat colorful president of mexico a real underdog who sparred see more and ended almost a century of rule by two of mexico's dominant political parties not bad and as is fashionable these days often justifiably i'm no exactly a fan of trump i have to convince and persuade those americans who are manipulated by don't trump the campaign of united states first or america first that's a fallacy it's nonsense. we have a respectful relationship with the american government but we're not subordinates the mexican people have been insulted and put into question i'll not allow that. to come the role this president and offended the mexicans in our position was to reject the hate policy promoted by trump and his counselors when i say not of i mean he really doesn't like trump even wrote

a book about it called trump or listen trump of course you can't have a proper election days without a little of the old russian meddling or at least someone complaining about it actually initial signs of it and the mexican. presidential campaign already has an aspect where we want to confront the behavior was with russia you know the russia. you know number of like around the world. even in mexico to his credit. found it really funny. but i'm just here watching the weather waiting for the russian submarine to come with my people and with gold from moscow his supporters even made a jacket for him with the word emmanuelle of which written on it get it andrei manual manual of each sound.
