For the mens 2030 tournament. As we count down to the Cricket World Cup, could england begin the defence of their title without ben stokes . It has been a night to remember for Newcastle United fans. Its been 20 years since they had a Champions League match at st james� s park. The french champions Paris St Germain were the vistors but they were no match for magpies who beat them 4 1. Ben croucher was there. Many of the fancier leaving st james� park behind me were not even for the last time newcastle played in the Champions League. It� s been 20 years in the making, it has been well worth the wait. Paris Saint Germain including Kylian Mbappe they were simply blown away by newcastle who lied to 0 by half time thanks to goals. Shawn long staff born and raised her and north east england made it three, psg pulled one back, before fabian scher is� screamer rounded after the famous 4 1 win. It was loud, raucous, everything you would expect from a european night and newcastle. And with the likes of ac milan and Mirusia Adornments to travel here to st james� park, you suspect they won� t be in a rush to hurry. And this was the scene in the newcastle Dressing Room after that win the club putting the picture out on social media. While the players of course have a game to prepare for at the weekend, i think it� s fair to say there might be a few sore heads amongst the fans in the morning. Elsewhere, there� s was late heartbreak for celtic as they lost 2 1 to lazio, the winner coming in the 95th minute. That makes it two defeats from two and leaves them bottom of group e. The holders Manchester City won 3 1 away at rb leipzig the goals coming from phil foden, Julian Alvarez and jeremy doku. They top group g.

The decision is set to be ratified at a Fifa Congress next year with spain, portugal, and morocco as the co hosts. But the opening round of matches will be played in uruguay, argentina, and paraguay to mark 100 years since the first tournament in montevideo. 0ur sports editor, dan roan, says fifa are bound to face questions about the impact on the environment. He will have the prospect of teams perhaps from europe Flying Thousands of miles to South America for one match before flying on the way back again across the atlantic, back to europe for the remainder of their tournaments. To europe for the remainder of theirtournaments. I to europe for the remainder of their tournaments. I think the optics of that are helpful and certainly according to many environmental campaigners and there is been condemnation already this evening in the form of Support Groups for example who say it sets the example who say it sets the example and the resulting controversy around stage in in three countries, in 2026 the idea of going further with six countries in three separate continents will add to that controversy. That news from fifa came on the same day the uk and Republic Of Ireland will now bid unopposed for euro 2028 after turkey withdrew to focus on a joint bid with italy for euro 32. In april, ten venues were selected for the uk and ireland bid, including dublin� s aviva stadium, glasgow� s hampden park, cardiff� s principality stadium, wembley in london and belfast� s Casement Park site, which still hasn� t been built. Uefa will award the hosting of Two European Championships next tuesday. Liverpool manager jurgen klopp wants their Premier League game against tottenham to be replayed after luis diaz� s goal was wrongly disallowed by the video assistant referee. The var team failed to overrule the decision when diaz was flagged offside when the game was still goalless. The referees� body, the pgmol, released the audio of discussions between the match officials as they made the decision and when they realised the mistake that had been made. Liverpool went on to lose 2 1. Not as the manager of liverpool so much, more as a football person. I think the only outcome should be a replay. That� s how it is. It would happen again. I think every play would be the right thing to do or the referee has the opportunity to bring both coaches together and say sorry, we made a mistake. But we can sort it. We made a mistake. But we can sortit. ,. ,. , we made a mistake. But we can sortit. ,. Sort it. Decisions are decisions sort it. Decisions are decisions and sort it. Decisions are decisions and sometimes they sort it.

Some of you may be forgiven for thinking that summer has returned this weekend. Yes, for some of you, the weather is set to get is thickening to our west and we have rain now we� re starting to see rain edge into northern ireland. That� s going to be turning steadier the north west of both england and wales. With extensive cloud around, it� s a mild start to thursday morning, with temperatures into double figures widely. But across the northern half of scotland with some clearer skies here we� re starting on a chilly note. Now, through thursday, this low pressure is the system that� s bringing the rain. So it� s going to be quite windy. You can see some fairly tightly packed isobars there. The rain at its heaviest in the morning that wetter weather then swings across scotland, northern england, wales and some damp weather too, of england probably staying dry until after dark with some bright spells coming through the cloud. And for many areas of the uk, temperatures are running above average. Evening trickling down across parts 0n into friday� s forecast, we� ve got another zone of rain the rain now clearing further southwards as this ridge there� ll be a bit more sunshine to go around and those temperatures are creeping up 22 in london, while the average for this time of the year in the capital is 16 degrees. Now, the process of that High Pressure really starting pushing the band of rain ever further northwards across scotland where it could be quite wet across Northern Areas of scotland on saturday. And those temperatures climbing, in the very warmest areas. Certainly those temperatures are a long, long way above average. Temperatures, the highest temperatures in a month getting to the low 20s. But it� s quite rare to see temperatures up to 26 or 27. That would make it one of the hotter days that we� ve seen in october in this country. Live from washington, this is bbc news.
