without gareth and aaron, there's a chance for the players to come in and prove it is not the case goingat tonight. we played some really good stuff and the thing i most proud about is that clean sheet, that will to defend and put their bodies on the line. take responsibility for every kick that is made on the field by us. that is myjob. and so that will not change and in terms of questioning, there is no question, i do question everything that happens in the field to look back again to see what we may have a —— may have been able to double a little bit better and hopefully that improvement, it continues. madagascar have qualified for the africa cup of nations for the first time in their history. their 1—0 victory over equatorial guinea means they progress to next year's tournament in cameroon. and they celebrated with an icelandic hand clap. madagascar have reached the tournament the hard way — coming through the preliminary round, before finishing second in group a behind 2002 runners—up senegal. and senegal qualified top of group a after winning 1—0 in sudan with an 86th minute goal.

gareth southgate‘s young side had plenty to prove, of course.summer, they had that unforgettable run all they had that unforgettable run all the way to the last four, the first time they'd done that well in a world cup for some 28 years. but since then their progress has stalled somewhat. they haven't won ina stalled somewhat. they haven't won in a competitive fixture. they came here against a really inform spain side, and many people expected that the hosts would win with something to spare, and indeed spain started more brightly. but it didn't take england long to get going, two goals from sterling in the first half and rashford as well. back to the wall stuff for southgate‘s side in the second half and spain ultimately pulled two back. but england showed the kind of resilience and determination that perhaps be blacked in the past. ever since that world cup run many fans have wondered how good this site really is, whether they can really mix it with some of the best teams in the world. spain are certainly one of those, they beat england last m

gareth southgate has kept his cards closer to his chest but believes any one of his squad can be a matchdy in this squad that is here that we are not thinking of putting into the team. it is not experimentation, it is players who we believe in, players 0k experimentation, it is players who we believe in, players ok that in a lot of cases are relatively inexperienced at the highest level, but players we have enjoyed working with that have shown in training this week that they can handle this level, and we will pick a team that we think is the best one to win the game. the football association held what's been described as a "healthy discussion" today about the proposed sale of wembley stadium to american the football association held what's been described as a "healthy discussion" today about the proposed sale of wembley stadium to american billionaire shahid khan. the deal, worth around 900 million pounds, will go to a vote of the fa council on the 24th of october (oov) with around a two thirds majority council on the 24th of october. with around a two thirds majority needed for the sale

giggs is already without gareth bale, who missed thursday‘s defeat by spain and returned to his club will do my best to add some notes of hope and who knows perhaps some words of wisdom in my remarks today. let me say at the outset what the real pleasure it is to be able to do that in such a magnificent and in many ways appropriate setting. this room was designed by the scottish architect robert adam who also designed but house in edinburgh which is now the official residence of the first minister. robert adam drew heavily on the lessons of traditions that he learned during his travels across europe and this room was purpose—built as a venue for discussion and debate so in some senses it really does evoke the values of the european enlightenment in which scotland and this institution played such a proud part. these values continue to be reflected in the rsa's mission and exemplified in the work that you do. it is striking how many connections there are between the rsa's recent priorities are those of the scottish government on issues that range from mental health and schools to unive

gareth southgate now has room to experiment but ross barkley, according to his supporters, has won hisand square. so a real sense that this might be the time at last for ross barkley to shine on the international stage and the former everton and chelsea winger pat nevin joins us now. pat, you have followed him from a teenager at everton — do you sense a difference in him now? much more than sense, i'm hugely impressed with the difference and the exponential growth in the player just in this last month or two. i watched him at everton and he had a lot of ups and downs. we know he is good enough and has got the quality to bea good enough and has got the quality to be a top international player. however, there were one or two things missing. it was difficult to see what they were. it was a p pa re ntly see what they were. it was apparently not difficult for the chelsea manager to see what they we re chelsea manager to see what they were because he worked with him and the young man himself has said that it is incredible how much he has learnt in his time with the chelsea manager. he has le

it is not easy because you will always miss someone like gareth.ional series. originally from stockport, he qualifies through a welsh grandparent. gatland rested some of his established players over the summer on their tour to argentina but he has recalled captain alun wyn jones. he returns along with fellow osprestustin tipuric, george north and liam williams. they face scotland, australia, tonga and south africa. double olympic skeleton champion lizzie yarnold, who has announced her retirement late last night, has criticised the world anti—doping agency for lifting the three—year ban on russia. yarnold won her first olympic title at sochi where it emerged that russia had carried out the systematic mass doping of its athletes. she would like to stay in sport to help in the fight against drugs cheats. there are boards i can hopefully applied to be on and continue to have the voice of the athletes represented, and remind people that we have to protect athletes, especially when we are talking about anti—doping issues. we have to protect fair and clea

gareth southgate's first post—world cup england squad is young, with an number of new faces.90. there are no players over 30 and england have theirfirst player born this century in the squad, this man. jadon sancho plays for borussia dortmund — moved from manchester city when he was 17 — wanted more football — getting it and particularly this season doing very well. here's the full squad with average age just under 2a — also another teenager called up for the first time is mason mount on loan at derby from chelsea leicester city's james maddison is called up. and chelsea's ross barkley is back in — barkley‘s last england appearance was in may 2016 — england play croatia and spain in nations league later this month. southgate has signed a new contract which will see him remain as england boss until the 2022 world cup. you never know with young players but they are capable of until you give them their opportunity, and we gave joe gomez debut against brazil and he was the man of the match. we have done that right away through the last two years. it may be a little bit for them b

but nonetheless it will represent a step back after the progress made in the summer in russia when garethe made their way to the semifinals. they are yet to win a competitive match since they beat sweden in the quarterfinals. if they fail to win again for quarterfinals. if they fail to win againfora quarterfinals. if they fail to win again for a fifth successive competitive match and will equal every concept by graham taylor in 1992. southgate will be desperate to avoid that. he has said that he was disappointed by how little time there was between the end of the world cup and the start of the premier league and he says players are tired. i don't understand why the league started so early. but they did and so the difficult situation for the club, some of them could not have fielded a team, looking at tottenham, they had so many players in the semifinal of the world cup they had to put their players straight into matches on the back of very little pre—season.m southgate wants a measure just how far his side have come coming could not wish for better opposition than spain. 0ne not wish for
