It felt more like old times, wembley welcoming the size of crowd it hasnt enjoyed for a long time. Fans sing. Could england be carried by a wave of support . For most of these fans, few fixtures stir quite as much emotion or trepidation. The challenge to defy notjust old rivals but also shoulder the weight of history. Would a new generation now prove unburdened by the past . With a changed formation, england took time to settle and having scored both of their goals this tournament, Raheem Sterling soon almost had another. Having gained the upper hand, the hosts continued to press, harry maguire, unable to take advantage. The manager was encouraged, but back came germany. Not for the first time these euros, Jordan Pickford coming to the rescue. Harry kane had struggled this tournament, and just before the break it seemed hed finally make the breakthrough. Before Mats Hummels last Ditch Clearance ensured more frustration. But then, just as the game had fallen flat, substitute Jack Grealish provided the Spark England needed. His pass found luke shaw, who delivered the perfect cross. Sterling, unstoppable once again, to finish a move he had started. The man raised in the shadow of wembley making it his home. Then, for sterling, a moment to forget, his underhit Pass Handing thomas muller the chance to equalise. But the Precision Germany are famed for had deserted them. 55 years had passed since their last Knockout Victory over these opponents, but it was time for history to change. Quiet tournament. Grealish finding kane, so much for the captains quiet tournament. Wembley, half full, but rarely in its long history will it have heard anything quite like this. And 25 years after his Penalty Heartbreak against germany here at euro 96, a sense of personal atonement for the mastermind of a defining win. For the teammates that played with me, i Cant Change that, so, thats always going to hurt, but whats lovely is that Weve Given People another day to remember, and now weve got to go and do it in rome. Amazing day, amazing game. To hear wembley like this wasjust a Moment None of us will ever forget, and a great performance, obviously 2 0, another clean sheet, just the perfect afternoon. For those who had witnessed this most precious of victories, a night never to forget, and for the players, a growing belief that after this, they no longer have anything to fear. Dan roan, bbc news, wembley. You get a flavour of the excitement from the England Side of the fence. You can imagine the reaction in the linen was, well, lessjubilant. In berlin. Our Correspondentjenny Hill went to a Beer Garden in berlin where fans shared their disappointment. Yeah, pretty sad. We were really excited for the game, and now im sad that we are out of it. Are you surprised at the way it went . Yes, yes. I was sure germany was going to win. Im feeling really upset. Im really depressed. For real, for real. I thought germany. Hey, quiet, quiet i thought germany would come in the final. I dont know what went wrong, but the english was better. It was fair and, yeah, sometimes super sad. And this time, football was hard. In the other last 16 Match Ukraine Beat Sweden with a goal in the last minutes of extra time. The game had been tied at 1 1 at full time but when Swedens Danielson was sent off in the first period of extra time, ukraine certainly started to get the upper hand. Despite that the match looked set for penalties until ukraines dovbyk headed home in the 121st minute. Ukraine will now face england for a place in the semi finals. That match will take place in rome. Australia has been seen as a global leaderfor rome. Australia has been seen as a global leader for its covid response. Deaths are among the lowest per capita in the world, and the economy has bounced back from recession. But now Brisbane And Perth have gone back into lockdown, joining the cities of sydney and darwin. Less than one quarter of australians have had even one covid 19 vaccine. Thats far behind other countries in the developed world. The bbc� s Shaimaa Khalil reports from sydney. Australians have been here before. 18 months into the pandemic, there is a familiar, foreboding feeling. The more infectious Delta Variant of the coronavirus has swept the world, and there is no business here is a Sydney Cluster continues to grow. As a Sydney Cluster. Parts of New South Wales are in lockdown and as cases pop up across the country, other states are following suit. A four day lockdown. Lockdown. That means we need a lockdown. Australia kept covid 19 cases low by effectively sealing itself off from the world. International borders are largely closed and anyone allowed in must go into Hotel Quarantine first. But the Delta Variant of the virus has breached those defences much quicker than health officials had anticipated, and with most australians still unvaccinated, thats put the country in a vulnerable position. Weve been lucky to date, and complacent, because were isolated. Im not overly worried. If anything, i think theyve been overly protected. I think that we squandered a huge opportunity. Im really keen to get back home at some point and see my family. So im really keen to get vaccinated as soon as possible, and its particularly frustrating not knowing when thats going to be. Vaccines, or a lack of them, are the biggest gripe here. While there has been some vaccine hesitancy, the biggest issue is supply, especially for the pfizerjab. I Cant Stress enough the major frustration here is the virus. That is the major thing working against australia. Ive been encouraging australians to hang in there, we have to hang in there. We dont have a choice. Today, we recorded just 25 cases. That is one per million of our population, whereas in the uk yesterday, they reported 23,000 cases. Apart from ramping up vaccination, we need to make sure that Hotel Quarantine is working. Since november, we have been having an average of one leak every nine or ten days. If that continues through the winter, were just going to see further outbreaks, lockdowns, disruption to the economy. For all the recent problems, Australias Pandemic Response still remains the envy of many parts of the world. But the next few weeks are crucial, with this countrys covid Success Story now hanging in the balance. Shaimaa khalil, bbc news, sydney.

The former president of South Africa has been sentenced to 15 Months Injailfor Africa has been sentenced to 15 months in jail for contempt of court. The Prison Sentence follows his refusal to appear at an Anticorruption Enquiry that he claimed was politically biased against him. Mr zuma must now turn himself over to Police Or Face arrest. South africas top court was clear and scathing in its ruling, declaring that the former president Jacob Zuma was a manipulative Liar Whod sought to destroy the Rule Of Law to save his own skin. No person is above the law. And every person, whatever his rank or condition, is subject to the ordinary realm of the law and amenable to thejurisdiction of its tribunals. Jacob zuma, already on trial in a separate corruption case, now has five days to hand himself over to the police. This is an extraordinary moment for South Africa. Mr zuma still has some support here, people who believe hes been targeted as part of a vast political conspiracy. But many more South Africans will be relieved to see the judiciary holding firm. Mr zuma is facing jailfor refusing to co operate with this public inquiry into the corruption that flourished during his presidency. He insists hes innocent, a victim. But today, a man who last went to Prison Half a century ago for his role as a Freedom Fighter against racial apartheid is heading back to jail in the democracy he fought to build. Andrew harding, bbc news. Wednesday marks one year since beijing imposed a wide ranging national Security Law on Hong Kong. Critics say the new law is about china controlling the city and stifling opposition. Since its introduction, there have been more than 100 arrests, including some of Hong Kongs most prominent activists. Danny vincent has been speaking to Hong Kongers about the changes. As a young man, Lew Mon hung swam across this Riverfrom Mainland China into Hong Kong, hoping to start a new life. It took him nine hours to reach the shores of this former british colony. Nearly 50 years later, he says he was trying to escape poverty, not communism. Translation this is the critical time for the future of one country, two systems. Its important to safeguard it and we should follow president xijinping. On the eve of the 100 Year Anniversary of the founding of the chinese communist party, many questions over Hong Kongs future loom large. Critics say the introduction of the national Security Law a year ago is giving china complete control of this semi autonomous city. Control over its territory has long been a goal of the chinese communist party. Every chinese schoolchild is taught about the 100 years of humiliation, when china was weak and divided by foreign nations, when Hong Kong was still a british colony. Theres No Doubt the law is changing Hong Kong. Ah nam was once part of the student protest movement. Translation most of our generation is going through this. They are compelled to, or are planning to, leave their homes. Many of my friends in Hong Kong are either arrested or have been persecuted with political cases. Many others have left Hong Kong due to the national Security Law and other reasons. Despite more than 100 arrests since the law was introduced, some are determined to continue speaking out. Herbert chows shop sells protest memorabilia. It was raided by the national security police. Instead of trying to use the national Security Law as a law to protect the national security of china in Hong Kong, and if they decided to use it as a weapon, to silence people, and they arrest you, what can i say . What can i do . Im not going to change the way i live just because there is something so vague going around in society. If anything, im duty bound to prove that citizens of Hong Kong should not live in fear. Hong kong was promised certain political freedoms for 50 years after the handover. July1 marks 24 years since this city was returned to china, but today, many fear those freedoms are already being eroded. Danny vincent, bbc news, Hong Kong.

Thank you forjoining us. Thank you forjoining us on bbc news. Hello there. So far this week, its northern and western areas which have seen the best of the sunshine and the highest temperatures. Further east has been cloudier with outbreaks of rain. But as we move towards the end of this week, it looks like High Pressure will start to build in, so it will turn sunnier across Eastern Areas. Therell still be the Odd Shower here and there, and then into the weekend, it looks more unsettled. For wednesday, you can see the Pressure Pattern High Pressure to the north and west, so largely clear with some sunshine here, but low pressure again over the near continent will affect eastern parts of the country. Well start quite grey, i think, through this morning for many areas, but the sunshine will become more widespread across scotland and northern ireland, western england and wales. The Odd Shower here, there may be a odd heavy one. But eastern england, the southeast, again, a rather grey day with some patchy Light Rain or drizzle, feeling cool across North Sea coasts with a fresh breeze here, further west with the sunshine into the low 20s celsius. It looks like it could be another grey day on wednesday for wimbledon and then, thursday and friday, Itll Turn sunnier and warmer with temperatures reaching the mid 20s celsius. So through wednesday night, we hold onto the cloudy skies again across the east and southeast, the Odd Shower here. Further north and west, though, you can see clearer skies so itll be a Bit Cooler where we have those clear spells, single figure values in places. For most, i think were looking at 10 12 celsius. For thursday, that area of low pressure starts to pull away from the east, but still close enough to produce thicker cloud and the Odd Shower again, a fairly brisk northerly breeze across Eastern Areas will peg temperatures back. But elsewhere, plenty of sunshine around scotland and northern ireland, the midlands, western england and wales apart from the Odd Shower, most places should be dry, and again, temperatures reaching the low 20s celsius. On friday, higher pressure builds in, so it looks like we should see more sunshine around even across the south east. And itll be warm, 25 26 celsius. There could be the Odd Shower around, it might well be plenty dry, but emphasis will be on dry and sunny weather. As we head on into the weekend, though, low pressure starts to take back control, meaning we will start to see increasing amounts of showers, particularly on sunday where some of them could be really heavy and thundery. But itll be a mixture of sunshine and showers both saturday and sunday, like i mentioned, with sunday seeing the heaviest of those downpours. You are watching bbc news. These are the headlines. Rebel forces in ethiopians northern lacko to province have retaken the regional Capital Mekelle which was seized by federal troops last year. Tigray province.
