and they can play to a tactic and i think that's really important when you play these kind of thrown in that you can do that when i was going to go a couple of minutes left about the mentality of the place at this point you've been in a world cup quarter final you've been sat there i presume you're in the changing room at this point just under one hour to go the coach is saying something and ches of his been saying i don't watch t.v. i don't read the newspapers he's trying to keep his play is very grounded in this what will the situation of the place in the coaching doesn't watch t.v. because he doesn't have a t.v. i'm true or someone will sponsor to meet him you know and i can read i'm sure sure you can read the thing is and this is this is where it becomes a little bit with the people is never have a pain in this situation you have to keep it normal so that the manager to testify or the creation manager cannot do anything different they cannot say you know if they never say anything to the team before in the dressing room they should not do that today ranger absolutely not don't make this more difficult because now you're

the states you know you win this you're in the semifinal you win the next one you're in the final you win the next one you won the world cup three games can you get three results so it's difficult really really difficult as it is and you're so close but you're really that far away so the lead the less that he can change the more no money can make and i'm sure that these managers just made every day up until this game the same as up until the last game you give me your word you're the coach now rush what he say to the players that going out on the pitch very shortly for the biggest game that lies with what i what what i would have done as a manager i would have everything i want this team to do in this game i would have put that into training so it's a practical thing i would have had a meeting maybe today possibly last night so this is the team this is how we're going to play and today i would have made sure that everyone is in a good mood i would make sure. we going to we will go for a walk we have

a little bit of a laugh and then you know if you're just. just before you know just little guys you know now it is but nothing out of the ordinary at this point because the players are here on their own merits you know these guys have played themselves into a quarter final so they have the quality they've already shown that the show that i can spring this year and every game they play they have the quality so you don't have to tell them too much so and i don't know how i would suggest it works i have no idea how. could that in two words i have no idea about that i know about the managers i have and i know about how the game is manager but he was he was operating here and the best ones they read the squad and they say this is how i'm going to do it and they stick to that for everything. there it is that's going to be happening you might choose to watch the game in the tunnel but you will get to go action here first because we're going to hear that instant taney asli when any

girls go in you will find out if there's a goal here first less than an hour to kick off this is a monumental night in russian football is a huge night local football do stay with us here and back safely. i think we're here to go wherever we are people cheering side a lot of people already making no way just falls apart ascribed to the fans i'm going down that way anticipating that massive match neal and peter that you know think of the action thanks so much. i'll cross upon an insult you had of that decisive game you know in the fun zone andrew family is at the fish stadium itself where the game kicks off now in forty five forty seven minutes in fact. what's the atmosphere been like that less than half an hour before the game know. that high well right now in downtown saatchi which is about twenty five kilometers away from the fish stayed. i meant perhaps this is the best place to be if you did

manage to get a ticket for that russia game and it was just one picture i'm going to prove god just take along at what's happening behind me these are the people who are whining up to see the game the tsotsi found fast obviously numbers of fans who want to try and get in and feel the vibe watch the game on this big screen is enormous and hopefully everyone will get a chance to go through and during the game i will be inside that fan zone i'll be there next to the screen looking at all the people's reaction and it is going to be heated and there is all come back with more here in downtown salt she the location of the free fall fan fest just before the game and during the game as well.

thank you for about updates and now we can cross to andrew cuomo under the decisive game this evening especially for russia had some huge historic evening and how i mean how with how things down where you are. what i know you're thinking guy sandy while you're at the beach in order to gain perhaps well it's simple enough to school this way and you'll see the stadium potentially right here it's only a pebbles throw away from the black sea and my mind is the perfect location for a game of football never mind a world cup quarter final on a dos i say that ninety percent of those seats inside the forty five thousand seat arena will be taken by russians tonight because they have been flying into sochi by the plane load over the last couple of days and many of them the super confident see that then magical right and this will come we'll continue with a victory i think through a ship the saving has for me you know i'm not so sure i'll try to destroy how i'm fate. see the stadium you can't miss it well according to the architects they do

those two big white stones represent two snowy peaks but in my mind they are mere pimples compared to the mountain that russia has to climb tonight croatia unbeaten in this tournament so far they've beaten argentina at some point three nil and also have the likes of luka majors don't they radek h.-e. midfield but we shouldn't be too dishearten because the sun has shown long and hard hasn't it on the underdog during this tournament so perhaps we can have another upset tonight say i can say for sure that i discern how sean heard on sochi today it's been boiling about thirty degrees maybe more it's still about twenty five degrees now i know that both sets of fans and certainly being enjoying it if you like to be beside the sea but the big question is who will be the best side by the safe side tonight we'll find out soon enough because a kickoff is not far away. randi thank you for that and a little bit jealous to have you on the beach there in the sun but it's not too bad up here in st petersburg even so. the game will be back with you later for some

updates now here are some live pictures from the fee for fan fest in moscow so many people go i think it holds around twenty five thousand people and i was there for the game against spain and the noise when they would go in the tunnel to actually face save that final penalty was immense it was crazy people were jumping on each other and hugging complete strangers but can the host nation repeat that and go any further that's the question russian fans are now asking some supporters have made pledges of what they'll do if the squad gets through let's take a listen to the best of both. and. then you can. that is the ball with the sixty four degrees from just to the last

the flag this is it official we should deal with the beautiful soup we simply chose not to mean i knew that it was world ticket don't you start the season with if you go girl who fell in love it was wool goes by so that they get. your wish and you wouldn't know where it is when you look at those and i say yes when you're sniffing the ladies but i sure will see more of the new styles. was more of their stuff me as a sure stuff is going to get me to the station in the us this border that i see a place of both and now the set up was this the place to be live might be show which sounds like the police did not feel that they will like teens to now bust you but we did you do learn this is one of the we start to feel our baby whites will get is that idea though that when you seriously think i do. he should also should look at his release people d.v.d. is a must but leave. well your

hof russian what would you do if russia win tonight i know there was a lady there said she wants to get married you are going to take up that march if i sometimes you know that lovely blonde girl and saucer you think the all all go halves with her on the offer of thinking about you recently to russia when russia went i think i will cover move to russia i'll give up my hair is it because going here i'll call them reason is that their liking to these are the future cuisine here in petersburg is going to get a long time because they would become resident in restaurants here all croatia are out one of the twenty one favorites now of course grows very rapidly through the free frankie's russia are riding high on a new found wave of confidence off their win against giants spain. team russia in the quarterfinals performing something just short of a miracle giving the fight to the mighty spain and eventually knocking it right out of the tournament. that night russian fans rule.

would go gold became a thing off to the two saves by the russian goalkeeper eagerly can fav in the final penalty shootout degree can fav himself already a star here at home became an even bigger internet celebrity at the time. now also drawing attention of course of russia's head coach but he took the spotlight not only with these managing decisions and he's managing style but also with his emotions or rather the lack of them i should say a hint of a smile and

a reserve of the pulled fists in triumph this is cool that he allowed himself on the pitch. churches have some astonish have become known here in russia has them a stosh of hope another symbol for russian fans is russia's traditional headwear course so here in central moscow in the hearts of the football fever i decided to familiarize fans of other national teams with these features of the russian found culture. to know that russia's traditional element of headway. as in the. winter happed growing. with the bald bald guy i have no idea i have no idea if. that's that. the fuck up i have this. you know what it was.

it's this i mean yeah i know exactly who this is but not for a girl it's cool the question is bush yes question it right on have you ever wanted to become a russian fan. i bought mine. just look so am i let's do this you you can kind of hold it till all the analysts not yet know differently. because the idea behind this goes. to help you a little bit right. ok ok selfie time so yeah yeah perfect like a natural you look like a natural you have something to chew something else yeah we have something else you know the russian chico i don't know his last name but i know him by his face just bald would. there must indeed and what i have for you here.

i'm just going to give you this. do you think that maybe you could hold it like this and say if you was pretend you were a russian coach which in english yes or in english if you feel the power of the stuff you hate he's here you know how important they have to be at the moment give me the speech. you've got you've got to get better over going to search for we're going to go forty we have all the fans here all or nothing come on it's your country is so tall and you need to make your own history come on good brother she run the russian players please i you remind me a mexico buddy dinner do you have a message to russian fans thank you thank you for the hospitality thank you for making it such an amazing experience continue supporting the team it's a wonderful world cup good luck. and i hope that they would win the world cup thank

you for everything has been great we needed to come on we were counting on you guys that was the plan russia mexico the final we give you a chance so if you give me a gun i fear police when the cows. lots of support for the host country for russians here in the country the game against croatia is a question of pride in the team and not least for russian hockey superstar alexander ovechkin. we have a russian victory of course and we will support the team they've already done and making everybody happy they're not far away from the final they need to work hard and i think the guys fully understand this and will do everything to make that happen so this is hard to predict the results of today's match personally hope for a draw in penalty shoot out and hubby go i can fancy performs miracles again. but russians are also brimming with confidence about picking up that key when the

country's president you can see that she's been spotted among the fives insults you ready to support the team. last time she was in october to visit with president putin and it was a different kind of visit i hope to have fun today regardless of the restrictions of the protocol because when i cheer for the team i like to do it in the way that sometimes can be delivered in appropriate in the v.i.p. lounge so it tonight i've been allowed to wear the national colors which is good the free fall and the russian hosts allow that it makes me happy however of course i will have to sit in my chair and not do it as i usually do we went to the fan zone to watch your game with spain last time and we celebrated with your fans and the fact that we will be meeting each other tonight in sochi i think you have a great team and i wish you a lot of luck and may the best team win i believe it's going to be croatia and i'm going to be cheering for croatia and i also have to congress. actually you know on

the way that you have organized this championships because with the span id's you can not only move freely around but it allows for the level of security that i haven't experienced at any championships so congratulations russia. and the croatian founds clearly as confident as the president ahead of the clash. with. the rules. so you think croatia can do it actually win the world cup to the end to the end i'm sure i'm sure we are going through an old team saying government is a special feeling you know it's going to be a tough game votes nevertheless i mean convinced that greece is going to be doing

is you know as you know introducing a month it's going to i think good luck. brimming with confidence that's interesting because. he said and saw as real favorites before much in fact before rankings they were quite the way down russia as well especially dog horses. precious that said it's sort of top top three four five teams that were going to be for russia on the other hand as well as going to be interesting what is next i think we have to keep looking at some of the facts as. the russians the home support can't be underestimated you know he mentions previously you have players like some i was impressed with romans on the field of russia in that game because he did them i saw him he was like a man possessed and won every second talk or every second ball and i think a big part about his having the problem of sides supporting you and not just in the stadium all across the country and you know restaurants and fun zone such as those images. we can see now and so i think that that will be really in the russian favor

but of course as you mentioned clay should coming into this game the favorites and book the stalls that got the players who are playing at clubs like real madrid and barcelona and all the places so they'll be fun sing the songs as well you know i think the pressure is when they can go so that energy so you their enthusiasm and really with the pressure of just for my family with that amount of support behind them good fun a lot of school so it is over england toppling sleeping all eyes to russia against croatia level that i just threw out the coming hours including insight from. peter schmeichel on our own neil harvey very soon to say soon here with us on our team.

i'm bart chilton and this is boom boss broadcasting around the world for the right here in view of the u.s. capitol in washington d.c. this is a second installment of our infrastructure deficit special if a structure isn't just a nice thing to have isn't only about having less bumps on a ride or about convenience it's much more including national security we asked the former director of the national trip protections. fifty board jamie finch about

that and more. research great for is a national security issue. goes about going all the way back to president eisenhower having him be the germans autobahn he brought the concept to the united states as a as a system to build across america so you can actually travel from the us from from the east coast us to the west coast us in a sort of about time versus the several months that it took him when he was a private when he first made it into the army. the world has become more connected with people and places that ever before and we can now reach just about any city on the planet in a single day and none of it would be possible without airplanes and airports in

fact the national air traffic controllers association says there are over eighty seven thousand flights in the united states every single day at the same time u.s. airports are decomposing before our eyes for an aerial view on the current state of airport infrastructure we handed over to our correspondent nicholas or donna. most people coming into the u.s. the first thing they see is one of these and then pulls an old out and then considers itself to be the leader of the developed well the truth is that it's a whole whole ways passengers from the middle east asia or europe would expect president trump didn't hesitate in saying that america's airports a third world facilities when i look at airports in china when i look at airports in abu dhabi and qatar and the different places where like a third world country you land in new york at la guardia airport a kennedy airport is like. third world airport system and its latest report the

american society of civil engineers graded the country's aviation infrastructure with a very unimpressive score of d. you know the united states has had. in an aging and. in aging infrastructure for about a generation so we sort of look back and the united states really built out our infrastructure in the fifty's and sixty's and early seventy's and then in some respects we've taken some time off from from from doing a lot of building and we've been somewhat maintaining our infrastructure but probably not as well as we can. says that progress the airports and a traffic control systems is slow unable to keep up with demands of increased traffic and new technologies and passages that fail in the effects of code into sky tracks and based on millions of survey responses there's no us sample in the world's top ten in denver international built in one nine hundred ninety five is

the first one on that list in the twenty eighth position the real problem however is that with the explosion of people traveling many airports are operating beyond their design capacity so we have a situation where the airports are crowded they're basically bursting at the seams and they're you know are looking to see traffic is increasing over there in the coming years over and beyond but there are already handling so there's definitely a need. to improve america's infrastructure according to the department of transportation a record nine hundred sixty five million a line passengers flew in the united states last year that's a three point four percent increase over twenty sixteen and more passengers mean more dollars in fact the federal aviation administration calculated that in twenty fourteen civil aviation generated one point six trillion dollars. and supported

around ten point six million jobs and not just any jobs because a lot of the jobs that are done at an airport specially when we talk about aircraft maintenance and in other areas you know airport management these are high tech jobs these are jobs that pay very good incomes each employee who is a highly paid skilled worker you know is going to be part of a chain of a whole bunch of other workers along the way so having a good airport having a well maintained. making a favorable destination is one of the best things you can do for a community the f.a.a. also estimates that the national cost of a poll congestion is expected to rise to thirty four billion in twenty twenty before going on to sixty three billion by twenty forty of current funding levels. and this takes us to the issue of funding in america airports are funded in very different way such as federal grants passenger facility charges bones and state and

local grants it's not an easy puzzle to resolve and coordination between different sectors is as important as actually coming up with the money an ample it's need a lot of that according to a study by a pulitzer council international usa pullets need an estimated seventy five point seven billion dollars in infrastructure investment through twenty nine that's american airports don't only need an upgrade they require a deep comprehensive plan if that doesn't happen the country that saw the birth of aviation will struggle to compete in the twenty first century nicholas donovan.

oil and natural gas are driving forces behind much of the nation's energy and the transport behind it lies in our country's pipeline infrastructure for a closer look our chief. reports. the us currently the largest consumer of oil consume twenty million barrels a day just in two thousand and seventeen but that wouldn't be possible without pipelines that transport the field from its source to the market and although the u.s. has fallen behind internationally and seen a rapid decline and its infrastructure when it comes to telecommunications transportation and water there one critical bright spot has been on and energy thanks to what has come to be known as the shale revolution the u.s. is now growing closer to becoming a net exporter of crude oil and natural gas and is projected to by pass russia and saudi arabia the current global leaders in energy but this dramatic spike in energy

production has created a dilemma in that the existing pipelines are not equipped to deal with such an influx as there are already operating in full capacity let's take the cost of transporting natural gas by train a cost that's nearly five or six times that of transporting by pipeline as economist kevin gillen explains first of all take the train transportation a train is more expensive than transportation by pipeline just to give you some numbers it costs about ten to fifteen dollars a barrel to transport a barrel natural gas by train and then only five dollars a barrel to transport a pipeline so it cost of transportation by train is two to three times transportation by pipeline the u.s. currently has more than two point six million miles of pipeline that transport more than sixteen billion barrels of crude oil and natural gas through the pipelines annually making it the world's largest network and of that network on. more than

two hundred thousand miles of liquid pipelines over three hundred thousand miles of gas transmission pipelines and more than two point one million miles of gas distribution pipelines that move energy and raw materials that fueled his nation's economic engine but currently major ports like boston still rely on foreign oil from russia via the united kingdom as the region's high and unstable energy prices are routed would inadequate natural gas pipelines to meet its demands or oil industry's top lobbyist jack cerrato highlighted how resistance to infrastructure development has led new englanders with some of the highest electricity costs in the nation particularly so through extreme winters the recent cold snap highlighted the difference between policymakers and regions and embrace america's energy abundance and those that do not. for example there were englanders have been subject to some of the highest electricity costs in the nation well above national

average because of resistance to infrastructure development but the trump administration's infrastructure plan release earlier this year is set to change all of that with an aggressive one point five trillion dollar plan that includes a sophisticated energy pipeline but an unexpected hurdle has been president trumps a recent twenty five percent tariff on steel and ten percent tariff on aluminum as terrorist on pipeline materials could be especially problematic for the industry since a large share of these products are imported at another major development and holding back the building of new pipelines has been funding we did growth for american shale in recent years the industry estimates that roughly one trillion dollar is needed in infrastructure costs over the next two decades in order to keep pace with increasing oil and gas production. and demands was one third of that being spent on

new pipelines but the good news is that direct capital investment for the construction of new pipelines will average fifty five billion dollars through twenty twenty five so while the ultimate outcome is unpredictable the intention remains clear for the trumpet ministration and the industry to put the us as the top net export or of natural gas and oil and move not possible without infrastructure to support the pipelines sayyid have injure r.t. washington d.c. . and we can't leave bridges out if we talk about infrastructure and we won't here's our shit correspondent ashley banks with more.
