Its a day full of anticipation for england and italy fans, ahead of the final of Euro 2020. More than 60 Thousand are expected at Wembley Stadium in london where the two countries face each other tonight. Its a historic game for italy it could be the first time they become European Champions in decades. For england a win would be their first ever Euros Title and a first major Tournament Victory in 55 years. Gareth southgate� s squad arrived in london after their final Training Session. The team have received good Luck Messages from the queen and the Prime Minister, ahead of what is the biggest game for england since the World-cup-final'>World Cup Final of 1966. 0lly Foster reports. When the final whistle blows at wembley tonight, the wait could be over. An England Team that you can mention in the same breath as the heroes of 1966. For too long, that history has weighed them down. Those golden generations expected to emulate what Sir Alf Ramsey achieved with his team. This class of 2021 under Gareth Southgate is perhaps the best chance yet. Theyve never been closer. This was our moment, to represent our time. The near misses, and the tournaments that have not gone so well, were not so important for this team. Over the last four years, theyve knocked down so many barriers, they have come through so many different challenges, different ways to win matches. Had to come back from being behind, had to go through extra time, had to go through extra penalty shoot out. So their resilience and experiences as a team have really prepared them well for this moment. 0n The Journey To London yesterday, the players were reminded just what this means to the nation. From the local villages in staffordshire, turning out to line the route as they left their training base, to the welcome they received as they arrived at their hotel. The players even received a good Luck Message from Tom Cruise Yesterday The Captain knows that this mission will be all the more possible with home support. To see the fans on The Street like they have been, and see the reception that weve had as we pulled into the hotel here, and as we were leaving st georges park, yeah, it hasjust shown us how big an occasion it is. We know how much it means to the English Fans, all over the country, so were Proud to be representing them. We havent forgotten about italy, a team unbeaten in three years. They were pushed very close in the Semi Final by spain, though. They went through on penalties. England will have to up their game again, but the italian manager, Roberto Mancini, says england will have a huge advantage with home support, and wherever theyre watching, English Fans might well be singing this tonight. A new tune for a new era of english football, and how sweet it promises to be. 0lly Foster, bbc news, wembley. Letsjoin our lets join our correspondent at wembley. It will be an amazing Atmosphere Tonight. Fans are already there hours before the Kick Off. Absolutely. Good morning from Wembley Way. It will be a great Atmosphere Tonight but it is already Atmosphere Tonight but it is already a pretty good one here this morning. I have been here since the early hours and there was a lot of people that were just starting to arrive now but in the early hours, one or two people perhaps on their way to work, but now it is getting busier and you can probably see down Wembley Way lots of England Flags and england shirts and lots of people getting ready for the game. It is actually 60,000 of them that have got that lucky golden ticket to come to Wembley Stadium and watch the match and you can see it here, just behind me, 60,000 have got the chance to go in and they will keep arriving as the afternoon goes on and the noises of sweet caroline, three lives, may be Atomic Kitten will grow louder and louder throughout this afternoon and the Build Up for the team will be calmer and quieter. They have theirfinal Training Session yesterday and then they move last night to their hotel in watford. That is much closer to wembley because today is all about getting themselves mentally prepared for the game. You can say the atmosphere is building behind me.

To haiti now. The widow of the countrys assassinated president has accused his political enemies of hiring mercenaries to kill him, in order to stop a plan to introduce constitutional reform and better living conditions. She urged the people of haiti to continue fighting and promised to be by their side. The killing has thrown the country into deepening political turmoil . With haiti asking both the un and the us to send military support. Rich preston reports. Four days after the assassination of the president , there is still a deep sense of Anxiety And Confusion in haiti. Translation for three years, there has been insecurity. The police have done nothing. They are not working for the people, otherwise there would not be so many deaths. Haiti is the poorest country in the americas. The First Lady says her husband planned to change the constitution to improve the lives of ordinary people. Speaking in creole, she described wednesdays attack. Translation in the blink of an eye, the mercenaries entered my home i and riddled my husband with bullets, without even giving him a chance to say a word. We cannot let the country lose its way, we cannot let his blood have been spilled in vain. His proposed constitutional changes made him enemies. Many said he just wanted to extend his time in office. But, speaking to bbc World news, Haitis Election Minister said Mr Moise had been focusing his efforts on two main areas. One was to effectively change the constitution, because the constitution is bringing a lot of instability. The second was to fight against corruption, particularly those living on government, on energy sector, construction, and other big areas. The haitian government says 28 foreign mercenaries were involved in the attack, and that most of them have been arrested or killed. We think the plan was to assassinate the president , then the people would be out in The Street, and other mercenaries might have been in the country to destroy key infrastructure. The political future of the country is less clear by the day, with two potential Prime Ministers and a newly nominated president all laying claims to be the rightful leader of the country. For now, the minister of elections is asking for international help to maintain calm on The Streets. We still believe haiti would need some kind of assistance, Human Resources and materials for the police to be able to help stabilise the country for the security of the elections that will be coming on september the 26th. Whether that help will come, and whether those elections pass smoothly, remains unclear. Rich preston, bbc news. Parts of the united states are braced for more record breaking temperatures having already endured the hottest june on record. Death valley in california hit a high of 54 point four Degrees Celcius on friday one of the highest ever temperatures recorded. Forecasters are warning that most of the state as well as nearby nevada will remain dangerously hot, fuelling fears of more wildfires.

Tomorrow the british prime Minister Borisjohnson is expected to announce whether the final easing of restrictions in england will go ahead on monday 19th july. Politicians have been touring the Tv Studios ahead of the announcement. 0ur Political Correspondent Jonathan Blake is here. Jonathan, any doubt at all that Mr Johnson and his ministers will indeed, as scheduled, live those remaining Covid Restrictions on the 19 . Bill remaining Covid Restrictions on the 19 . � ,. ,. , remaining Covid Restrictions on the 19 . ,. ,. , 19 . All expectations are that the Prime Minister 19 . All expectations are that the Prime Minister will 19 . All expectations are that the Prime Minister will tomorrow i 19 . All expectations are that the Prime Minister will tomorrow confirm that all remaining legal restrictions will be lifted in england onjuly restrictions will be lifted in england on july the 19th. Restrictions will be lifted in england onjuly the 19th. That represents a step four in the route out of lockdown in england and it was delayed from the original date ofjuly the 21st, but the government says the progress of the Vaccination Programme now means that it is safe and the right time to lift those remaining restrictions, but not without some debate about the way they are going about it and the guidance that will be issued in place of those legal curbs on peoples freedoms. Not without also a degree of caution as the Vaccines Minister outlined this morning. The fortification of the Vaccination Programme has allowed us to cautiously move to step four and the pm will say more about this. The guidelines will be very clear on things like mask wearing, there is an expectation for people to wear masks indoors, in crowded places, On Public Transport. There is both a personal responsibility and corporate responsibility, so rather than govern by diktat, what we are same as we move to step four cautiously, or the border controls and the stringent controls will continue. You are moving from must, to please,. No, we are moving from mast, too you are expected to wear a mask in indoor spaces, on crowded trains and elsewhere. That will help the whole country. It is worth highlighting the language that he was using, people will be expected to wear face coverings in certain situations, whether On Public Transport or indoors in crowded places. If you look at what the Prime Minister said last week, he said that while the legal requirement for face coverings would go, guidance will suggest where you might choose to do so. Ministers have talked around this in varying degrees of caution, Rishi Sunak was asked a couple of weeks ago about it and he said he would be taking his mask off as soon as it was legally possible and then Sajid Javid said in an Interview Today that it would be the responsible thing for people to wear masks in the right situations. Depending on how you read the language, it is a bit of a shift in emphasis, although one Government Source play this down as any kind of significant change in policy. For labour, the requirement to wear masks should remain and they are saying that that is one thing the government should not be doing onjuly the 19. The Shadow Education Secretary outlined this earlier on. Removing mandatory mask wearing in public places we think it is a mistake. We think more could be done to make sure that public spaces are properly ventilated and, of course, as we have said i all the way through this crisis, i people who do need to go home to self isolate need, if they are on low incomes, to be financially supported to do that so, to make this a mocking work safely or as safely as it possiblyl can, the government should be doing more to keep mitigations in place and i am afraid it doesnt seem to be doing that. I we will have to see how people adapt and how the government messaging adapts around the wearing of face coverings in public when it is no longer a legal requirement. Another important issue to highlight, the Health Secretary talking about the potential rise in Waiting Lists for hospitals in england, currently about 5. 5 Million sign it could go up about 5. 5 Million sign it could go up to 13 Million later on this year and he says that he is going to make that his priority to bring those numbers down, but it demonstrates the huge challenge the nhs is facing, not only dealing with coronavirus till, but the massive backlog of treatments that has built up backlog of treatments that has built up during the pandemic. Thank backlog of treatments that has built up during the pandemic. Face coverings will still be mandatory in wales in certain circumstances even after Covid Restrictions are relaxed. Welsh ministers will decide this week whether to lower the alert level to zero. But they say masks will still be required by law On Public Transport and in health and social care settings, for as long as covid remains a threat. Experts have warned that it is to catch two Covid Variants at the same time after a 90 year old woman became sick with both the Alpha And Beta types first identified in the uk and south africa. The woman, who died in March 2021 in belgium, had not been vaccinated. Her doctors suspect she contracted the infections from two different people. Researchers believe it is the first documented case of its kind and, although rare, similar dual infections may be happening. Sir Richard Branson is preparing to fly to the edge of Space Today. The businessman and his Virgin Galactic crew will take off from New Mexico at around 2pm uk time. It comes just nine days before another high Profile Entrepreneur the Amazon Founderjeff bezos is planning his own space launch. Tim allman has more. Billionaire entrepreneurs heading into space are a bit like buses, you wait ages and then two come along almost at once. First up, Sir Richard Branson and his unity rocket plane. Taking off from a Space Port in New Mexico, the Virgin Galactic crew should reach a height of 50 miles, or 80 kilometres, above the earths surface. According to nasa that is where the atmosphere ends, so Sir Richard will officially become an astronaut. I have always been a dreamer. My mum taught me to never give up and to reach for the stars. Thisjuly, our dream will become a reality. And were really excited to share that moment with you all. The Virgin Galactic programme stretches back nearly 20 years and has not always gone so smoothly. In 2014 a pilot was killed during a Test Flight over the mojave desert. This is only the beginning. Soon enoutheff bezos will take off in his Blue 0rigin rocket. Some critics say, this is simply the folly of rich men and question the logic of commercial space travel, when the sky are already full ofjunk, but for others, it is all about reaching for the stars. This is an attempt to regularise access to space. This is about getting economically achievable access to the industrialization of space. It is a really important flight. Virgin galactic plan to start commercial services in 2022. They say they could be running 100 flights a year, 12 months later. For Sir Richard Branson this is One Small Step fora billionaire, One Giant Leap for mankind. Tim allman, bbc news. Now let us look ahead to the game tonight. England four, italy one. Thats not a Score Prediction but a handy way to summarise the population of bedford. One in five bedfordians are of italian descent after thousands moved there during the 1950s to manufacture bricks. Tonight their descendants will be making a wall of sound. Jon ironmonger has been to the town which will be celebrating tonight, whatever the result. There is a possibility the final Bell Party in bedford will be civilised, quiet celebrations. But it is unlikely. If the previous games are anything to go by, there will be huge crowds of england fans in the centre of town. And italy fans on the river embankment, because bedford is like the Little Italy of england, around one in five people here are italian and everyone apparently is a football fan. Italia Tonights Match will be a culture clash. Joanne and her Husband Alfonso are only too sure. England. Italy. We have had this conversation before. They have invited me to their pizzeria to see how easily one family from two famous footballing nations can get along. English rose among thorns. Laughter. How you going to cope . It is so nice, a win win situation. So nice for the cultures to come together. Someone has to lose. Exactly. I wouldnt dare. He will. I Cant Talk too much when i am eating because of the concentration of italians and being in bedford, it is so important, we are both in the final, the perfect final, it can go either way, that is how we have to see it. You will take it on the chin if England Win . I will have to, but it will be a bitter blow. Will you release an english themed pizza . Definitely not. Good idea. I have to draw the line somewhere. Let me bring you an update on the story we were telling you about, Richard Bransons trip to Space Today on his Virgin Galactic spaceship. It has been delayed, we are hearing, about an hour and a half, it was due to take off at 2pm uk time and it will now be 3 30pm uk time. So, a 90 Minute Delay in Richard Bransons trip to space. Now its time for a look at the weather with helen willetts. Hello. The forecast for the rest of the day is one of sunny spells and showers. Fewer showers in southern and eastern areas, so, for the final days play at wimbledon, on balance, mostly dry, but there are showers around, and theyll be pretty heavy further north, with some thunder, torrential downpours, because the winds are light, theyll be slow moving, and then this is looming large for a wetter end to the day across parts of wales and south west england. But, in the sunshine, feeling pleasant enough and warm with the light winds, but this is on the move come this evening, so, it does look at the moment as if its going to arrive around Kick Off time for the euro finals, and certainly some rain around later in the evening for the fans making their way home. It looks quite wet, actually, across southern areas through the evening and overnight. Any heavy thunderstorms further north tending to fizzle out, but they will develop, again, through the day tomorrow. A little bit of Mist And Fog first thing, as well. In the sunshine, there will be fewer showers in the north and west, away from low pressure it will still feel warm. As ever, theres plenty more on the website. Hello this is bbc news. The headlines. 0n the brink of history englands footballers prepare to take on italy in tonights final of Euro 2020 their biggest match in more than half a century.
