thank you forjoining us, frank lampard.fearlessness and they can be excited and go through their routines and hopefully we will see them do their stuff. did you manage to sleep the night before a match or did you have a worry some night? a bit of both. sometimes, it can catch you and you wake up in the middle of the night and you can't get back to sleep because you imagine of the game and you know the pressures and the eyes of everybody back home and the world is watching. it is not easy, i have to say. but hopefully, the environment gareth southgate has created as a squad, the hotel and the preparations has been spot—on, it looks that way from the outside and so it is down to the players to keep their focus. what about his management style? he has said they are not haunted by previous campaigns. yes, i think all the words from gareth has been spot—on. he has kept expectations down, they are speaking very well. they don't have that scarring previous performances and i had that, our generation, we didn't succeed, we didn't w

frank lampard speaking to us earlier. the former england captain.get if they win they will be through with belgium, a very, very- belgium belgium, a very, very strong belgium side. we saw the earlier today here in moscow. they beat toonie cfia— two. the highest scoring match yet at this world cup —— and they beat toonie cfia — two. romelu cuckold toonie. cfia r..two.romelllcuckold a couple goals there, he is now with a couple goals there, he is now level with cristiano ronaldo four. —— romelu cocco. that means the match that is about to kick off in sochi, all eyes are going to be on germany. - cannot afford to lose germany. they cannot afford to lose against sweden, or the reigning champions will be out. we will have updates on that the rest of the evening on bbc news. we will be back in at 7:30pm with another day as well. but for now from all of us in moscow, it's goodbye. that evening. temperatures were into the low 20s in the south today, a notch up on yesterday. even for the north it was a little warmer, too, but with more cloud. everywhere had

in the media to start his coaching career outside the premier league after steven gerrard and frank lampardare all willing to get our hands dirty and not sit in the safety of the money we have in the bank, or not sit in the safety of a tv studio, radio studio, and we are prepared to get up and start putting back into the game. it can show the pathways of how we start to get a conveyor belt of coaches in our pyramid. theirs is the greatest and most enduring rivalry in women's tennis right now. and we were all set for one of the most anticipated matches between serena williams and maria sharapova. their first meeting since the american became a mother since sharapova returned from a doping ban and since some notable comments in the russian‘s autobiograpy about williams. all that in the melting pot. but moments before their fourth round match at the french open today serena withdrew as patrick gearey reports. the clues were there, watch serena williams' served in a doubles match yesterday, the power which defines her has gone. after she chose not to carry her bag from court for fear of aggrava

here are frank lampard's thoughts. he hasn't put a foot wrong. he has changed the team.ainst better teams, but i think the style of play is pretty good at the moment. the atmosphere he has created with a young squad is to his credit. whenever he speaks he speaks well. he deals with the media fa ntastically. well. he deals with the media fantastically. and that's important. that's part of his job as england manager. at the moment he has nailed it. there will be tougher things which might come up. but he has been brilliant so far. there might be room for some changes. that probably helps players that haven't had many minutes. it helps the squad to make those changes if needed. at the same time you keep the core of the team because as much as anything moment is such a powerful thing in a tournament like this. and when you are playing so well it would be nice to make a statement against belgium. it would be nice to perform well against a team of their quality. you realise quickly when you get to this stage that it is a different level mentally. the players will have to ta ke

frank lampard believes they might.are feeling with hours to go. i hope it's the fearlessness of youth. they haven't suffered before at the world cup. hopefully, they are using it in the right ways and they will go out and play because we have a lot of young talent in the team. but it's thought tunisian fans will outnumber england tonight, and they are equally confident. well, a word of caution. tunisia is the highest ranked african side in the highest ranked african side in the tournament. they have recently drawn with the likes of portugal. confidence is high on the england side, but they are the least experienced and youngest team at this world cup. and this balanced and organised tunisian team might not be the pushover that some england fans are predicting. natalie, thank you. melania trump — america's first lady — has taken the rare step of condemning a controversial policy introduced by her husband, the president. donald trump introduced a zero—tolerance policy towards families who illegally enter the country — it

although former england midfielder frank lampard says he's not getting too excited just yet. we re without being disrespectful, panama were below par and i think we knew that. we should give them credit to a degree but we should certainly give them credit, but in terms of ranking yet, it's hard to do. the real ones to rank and test will be if we can go head—to—head with belgium or in the knockout stages, head—to—head with a bigger images and produce. i believe the team can. this is part of their growing as a group and at the moment, in both games they played very well. england will play either senegal, japan on colombia in the last 16, who dedicated their 3—0 win over poland to their midfielder carlos sanchez. he received death threats since being sent off in the third minute against japan last week. back to today's action and it's the start of the final round of group games. they're all played at the same time, and cristiano ronaldo will be hoping to drag his side into the last 16 when they play iran at 7pm. they're level on points with spain, who play morocco, also at 7pm.

tomorrow's match against panama, so they fly off this afternoon and the former england midfielder frank lampardver whether to continue playing raheem sterling which bring in marcus rashford from the start. from the season raheem sterling is had at manchester city, we all know what he can do now, is a huge plus in him, marcus rashford, when he puts on an english shed, brings something so different and he runs straight at defenders and gives us another options as i think gareth is just fortu nate options as i think gareth is just fortunate there. i wouldn't be surprised to see marcus rashford play against panama and it open ended for the rest of the tournament for the big both make good impact. it is to deliver. i wouldn't be surprised to see him stay in the team. germany have a lot of big night ahead playing sweden in the late kick—off today. the reigning world champions really need a win if they are to avoid the ignominy of they are to avoid the ignominy of the exit at the group stages for spring and, they lost opening match to mexico who themselves play south korea at 4pm. elton played tunisia

frank lampard believes they might.before at the world cup. hopefully, they are using it in the right ways and they will go out and play because we have a lot of young talent in the team. but it‘s thought tunisian fans will outnumber england tonight, and they are equally confident. natalie pirks, bbc news, volgograd. our correspondent sarah rainsford is in volgograd. devil leave the crowd here at the volgograd arena have been building as we get closer to kick off at this brand—new stadium and those we were hearing there, there are a lot more tunisian fans here than england fans. about 2000 from england have made it to volgograd for the game but we have found a few of them, four brothers from manchester and they have come a long way for this game. what is the atmosphere like? fantastic. great. warm and friendly. everything we had hoped for. is it what you expected? it is. it is really good. love it. you have come a long way, you came from australia. icame a long way, you came from australia. i came back tojoin my brother

i‘m a winner, i like winning in everything. going to win, change needs to be made. that of frank lampard player. i had a great year in the media. of management has always been there for me. it was a matter of time for me. and the right opportunity. and this feels right now, the rest is up to me. everton have a new manager. marco silva‘s taking charge. is to build a strong connection with the fans. second test with pakistan in leeds. after taking part in some light practice on the headingley field. says they need to bounce back. i look at that dressing room, there‘s so much talent in there. performances in and there is another opportunity to do that. in that dressing room. young players, senior players. and if we stand up as a collective group this week. then we will put in a good performance. there‘s just one british player left at the french open tennis. hungarian marton fuchovich in four sets. fognini tomorrow. favourite lucas pouille. heather watson is also out. she was beaten by 16th seed elise mertens. his shoulders but he is our only hope! no pressure... i know. cool as you like, h

former england midfielder frank lampard says the young squad can be free of ‘mental baggage‘ going intoat will translate onto the pitch. well, plenty of the highly fancied teams at this world cup have failed to impress in their opening matches and you can include on that list the defending champions, germany. after a joyous and emotional match for mexico, they managed a 1—0 win which really could have been more. it‘s the first time a german team has been beaten in their world cup opener since 1982. apparently, fans in mexico caused a small earth tremor in south america when the ball went in. there were tears too, for west ham‘s javier hernandez at the final whistle. not quite tears for brazil, but they won‘t be plased with their start. it‘s the first time in 40 years that they failed to win their first game at a world cup, conceding a pretty soft equaliser, as they were held to a 1—1 draw by switzerland. well, there was a golf major on over the weekend — the us open at shinnecock hills — and it was very nearly won by a briton, in the shape of tommy fleetwood. he became just the sixth pl

frank lampard claim this side can win the world cup. is it something the players have discussed?e 12 players that are not playing, it is only natural we want to play. that is normal and one reason we get to where we do because we are competitive and have a competitive nature and we want to play in every game. that is not possible in football. we have been around long enough to know that is the case. we have to respect that. we have to keep pushing. i think thatis we have to keep pushing. i think that is what the players have been doing, that has been the mentality of the players who have not been in the starting 11, to keep working as ha rd the starting 11, to keep working as hard as possible and keep training to the best of our ability to try to force ourselves an opportunity to play. if we could maybe ask the photographers if they would not mind leaving so we can carry on. thank you. indistinct. thank you, carry on, please. reporter speaks in own language. i had ihada i had a message from david beckham before the tournament and after our first or second game, so it is nice we a

frank lampard hopes youthfulness can be a positive for them. it will be incredible.in the right way because we have a lot of young talent in the team. well, also in england‘s group belgium face panama in a game you can watch on bbc one at 4. there has already been one match completed today and saw the video assistant referee involved once again, as sweden beat south korea 1—0, watched by nick parrott. exactly the stadiums that world cups or almost a given. unfortunately, the quality of the matches played within cannot be guaranteed. sweden have not won their opening game since they hosted the tournament in 1958. what they would have given to field their recent icon. the first shotin field their recent icon. the first shot in this match took 20 minutes to arrive, the second longest wait to arrive, the second longest wait to final since 1966. south korea we re eve n to final since 1966. south korea were even worse, failing to register a single shot on target. both sides tried to register penalties but the officials did not fall for the antics. the video assistant refer
