Im Annita Mcveigh here at wembley. Italy may have emerged victorious but England Team have many reasons to hold their head up high. Ill be assessing what happened with fans and footballing experts. Borisjohnson is expected to announce lifting the remaining coronavirus restrictions in england in one weeks time but people will be urged to wear face masks in crowded places. Thousands of people take to the streets to join cubas biggest antI Government protests for decades, demanding freedom, democracy and More covid vaccines. Americas west is scorched by record breaking heat as California And Nevada brace for even higher temperatures. Hello and welcome if you re watching in the uk or around the world. Englands bid to end their 55 year wait for a major trophy, In The End, came upjust short. It ended in painfully familiar agony of being on the wrong end of a Penalty Shoot out as italy claimed the Euro 2020 crown at wembley. The manager, Gareth Southgate, said the defeat was incredibly painful. The captain, Harry Kane, said it would probably hurt the players for the rest of their careers but that they should be extremely proud of what theyd achieved. Three England Players missed their penalties, the final one from 19 year old Bukayo Saka, who was heartbroken and had to be consoled by his Team Mates and manager. The trios Social Media pages have since been flooded with racist comments, leading the fa to release a statement condemning the disgusting behaviour. And the uk Prime Minister, borisjohnson, has said those responsible for this appalling abuse should be ashamed of themselves. Facebook said the removed comments and abuse directed at englands footballers. Cheering. It was italys night. Cheering. Coming back from englands Electric Start and then winning it on penalties. Cheering. European footballs finest honour goes to rome. Translation im so happy we are Euro Champions im going to celebrate all night repeats im going to celebrate all night after sky high expectations for england, it was heartbreak. After 55 years without a trophy, the wait goes on. And ifeel sorry, in particular, you know, for everyone because, you know, its a community thing, you know, and everyone was rooting for england. And in my lifetime, its probably the closest that ive seen theyve come to a championship like that. It was the perfect start for england. Left back shaw hitting the back of the italian Net Afterjust two minutes the fastest goal in a European Championship final. But italian Pressure And Possession was rewarded with a 67th minute goalfrom bonucci. No More goals in normal and extra time, just an intruder on the pitch and some extremely intrusive italian tackles on display. Penalties would provide both ecstasy and agony. Following verratti and kanes goals, belotti denied for italy. Englands rashford hit the post. Donnarumma denied englands sancho before pickford saved jorginho� s effort. It all came down to English Teenager saka. One kick to keep the game alive for england, but not this time. A cruel ending for the 19 year old and Gareth Southgate� s team. Theyre a team who have pulled together, have given the country some incredible evenings. But, of course, tonight, the devastation of getting so close and not being able to give our country the trophy that we wanted to do is difficult to put into context. There is added misery for englands players who all take the knee before games to highlight the fight against racial inequality after Racist Abuse on Social Media aimed at the three players who missed penalties. Condemning it, the Football Association has said back on the pitch, a joyous italy is now unbeaten in sa matches. Translation we are happy for our people, for italians who deserve this after such a difficult period. And this is ourjoy, and the fact that we played really well. Plays sombre tune. England, on the other hand, must now pick themselves up with less than 500 days until the World Cup. Mark lobel, Bbc News. Lets go to wembley for More reaction. Thank you very much. One of those nights that people, whether an italian or england fan will be talking about for a long time into the future, where were you when you watch that game, the final of Euro 2020, 60,000 fans packed into Wembley StationLast Night because of travel restrictions, the vast majority of those england fans.

We have a few world players who did very well in the italian team, due to their age, who won the 2006 World Cup. Youngsters who really knew what they had to do, we performed, we are a team that impressed on the pitch, we keep attacking, i mean, it has completely changed and the credit is down to the manager.

England is an excellent team, it is fundamental at this level of football and the reason you got to the final, alongside the fact that you have got strikers who are strong, Last Night i was really impressed that. In my opinion, england would be one of the teams that people would have to be. It went to a World Cup semifinal in france, there is a clear trend in your performances and i expect you to confirm this in the next Tournament.

Italian Tournament. Thank you very much for talking to us. Italian football talking to us. Italian Football Journalist assessing Last Nights final. The ugly side of all of theirs is the Racist Abuse that has been directed at three of englands young players, young black players, the three who stepped up to take penalties Last Night and missed the penalties, Marcus Rashford, Jaden Sancho and Bukayo Saka. The latter is only 19 years old. They stepped up is only 19 years old. They stepped up and tried to take the penalty and a major competition. The abuse directed at them has been roundly condemned by the uk Prime Minister, by the metropolitan police here in the uk, In London, they are investigating this by Social Media companies including facebook. Lets talk to our political correspondent. The Prime Minister, one of those condemning this abuse. What can you tell us about what he has been saying and what sort of action is being taken to try and find out who is responsible . It is being taken to try and find out who is responsible . Is responsible . It is a striking art of is responsible . It is a Striking Part of the is responsible . It is a Striking Part of the conversation is responsible . It is a Striking Part of the conversation in is responsible . It is a Striking Part of the conversation in england this morning, notjust the despondency, the sense of deflation following the Penalty Shoot out ands losing, the serious outbreak of racism on Social Media targeting this trio of lack of English Footballers are brave enough to follow their managers Command A colossally important game. Roundly condemned the Racist Abuse they have suffered on Social Media overnight. Let me show you the tweets from the british Prime Minister. About three hours ago now, seven in the morning. Adding to that, the labour leader, he said in a tweet that the entire England Team have brought us together and given us memories to last a lifetime. They represent the best of us and racial abuse is a disgrace and does not represent us. Scratch below the universal condemnation that we are hearing this morning from the Prime Minister, the leader of the opposition and others, and there is a political charge here as well. Take a look at this. The Deputy Leader of the opposition labour party, she has tweeted, let me be clear, the Prime Minister and the Home Secretary give licence to the racist and are now racially abusing England Players. Borisjohnson and Priti Patel are like arsonists complaining about a fire that the Board Petrol on. Total hypocrites. That is a reference to our unwillingness during the European Championships and before them for Downing Street to outright condemn those fans who chose to boo at the taking of the knee that the England Players and lots of sides, not least italy Last Night, have been doing for eight seconds before Kick Off of each of the matches. There is a bit of political charge here. We should emphasise, though, the Prime Minister is saying categorically that he thinks the abuse is appalling. The Culture Secretary as saying that the Social Media companies need to address what they do as far as abuse on their platforms is concerned. If they do not do that, there is some legislation on the way that will hold them to account by potentially fining them. A recurrence of this long Standing Discussion about how you go about regulating Social Media companies and whether regulation is a good idea and is practical. Certainly after incidents like this, there are plenty who think something does need doing. Thank you very much. We are going to show you some pictures of the England Team hotel and let you know that we are expecting to see the England Players emerge from their very shortly. We will do our very best to bring you the pictures live when they emerge. A huge outpouring of praise, talking about the ugly side of this, the abuse they have been getting on Social Media, but a huge outpouring of praise for what the team have achieved and great hope for their future success with so many of this team, very young players, Bukayo Saka only 19 years old, the list goes on, to have got this far with a very young team, so much praise for them and for the manager Gareth Southgate. Of course, for many households, there were split loyalties Last Night. Lets talk to some of the fans. An english italian household and i wonder what it was like Last Night.

Yes, the dreaded Penalty Shoot out, they are dramatic, but nobody wants to see a Football Game End and a Penalty Shoot out. When italy won, what was it like between you two .

I am sure there were many split loyalties all over the place, both in England And Italy for people watching that game Last Night. Can i remind you, we are waiting to see the England Team emerge from the hotel, we will bring the pictures as soon as we see them. I am going to talk to the Football Journalist, thank you for talking to us. We were talking about the italian manager and his contribution to their success. Lets talk about Gareth Southgate and his contribution to the success of the England Team. They did not win Last Night backed by most peoples measure, it has been an incredibly successful Tournament. SuccessfulTournament. Overall, a hu. E successfulTournament. Overall, a huge success successfulTournament. Overall, a huge success for successfulTournament. Overall, a huge success for england, successfulTournament. Overall, a huge success for england, best i successfulTournament. Overall, a l huge success for england, best ever performance in the European Championship, Gareth Southgate has rallied the Country Bit behind the England Team and a high level of management than some would have expected from him, you can see that in the way that england managed the game, beating germany, beating denmark, beating ukraine. Even though they were afflicted by classic old english problems, Last Night, overall, Ithink Classic Old English problems, Last Night, over all, i think they have made great strides this summer with Gareth Southgate. This made great strides this summer with Gareth Southgate. Gareth southgate. As for his management Gareth Southgate. As for his management style, Gareth Southgate. As for his management style, what. Gareth southgate. As for his| management style, what will Gareth Southgate. As for his management style, what will he have been saying to the players after the game and what will he say today . Clearly, the devastation on the faces of the team at The End of the match. ,. ,. , match. The first thing he said to the players match. The first thing he said to the players who match. The first thing he said to the players who missed match. The first thing he said to the players who missed the match. The first thing he said to. The players who missed the penalty kicks, this is not on them, england when as a team and lose as a team and it is not theirfault. Immediate priority to let those three players because it will be going through a very difficult evening. He would want to reemphasise how proud he was of the team, their performance at the euros, outdone expectations by getting this far, and the next priority is to prepare to complete the qualification and desperately hoping that england can go one step further in the World Cup in 16 months. We will come back to that in a minute, in terms of the tactics Last Night, the strategy and the decisions around who would take the penalties, what are your thoughts on that . Was there anything that could have been done differently . I that . Was there anything that could have been done differently . Have been done differently . I think that Gareth Southgate have been done differently . I think that Gareth Southgate did have been done differently . I think that Gareth Southgate did not have been done differently . I think that Gareth Southgate did not get l that Gareth Southgate did not get his tactics right for the game itself. The back three system which caught italy off guard in the first few minutes i think stifled england More than it stifled the opposition. England struggled to get out and create after the opening goal, it was too easy for italy. It looked as though they did not have quite enough peace are attacking power in the team. It was too reminiscent of the team. It was too reminiscent of the 2018 Semifinal Defeat to Croatia In Moscow where england took an early Lead And Thenjust in moscow where england took an early lead and then just gave the ball up and defended too deep and got punished in the second half. I think that while Gareth Southgate has been tactically peppered throughout the Tournament, yesterday we are handing back to the studio. Gareth southgate is giving a News Conference right now. Just a quick note, you cannot see him at the moment, we are trying to fix that. But we can hear his answers. There are a huge but we can hear his answers. There are a huge number but we can hear his answers. There are a huge number of but we can hear his answers. There are a huge number of positives but we can hear his answers. Ii are a huge number of positives and those players will be far better for going through so many important victories, landmarks that they set, historic performances. In the main, they performed under huge pressure of being at home for the majority of the Tournament, being one of the favourites, that was a far different situation to the team when we went to russia. They dealt with that so well in the opening game, in the game with germany in the semifinal, for a large part of the final, certainly the first half of the final, they dealt with that. We probably had a 20 Minute Period where we did not keep the ball as well as we needed to just after half time, but then even the rest of the game was fairly even although we could not create the clear chances we have been able to in the past. Part of that is because we were against a team that had gone 13 games unbeaten, some incredibly experienced players, and the team that are just a little bit further ahead than us in their development and their progress. And, hello, can you hear me . Yes. Ultimately, this is the first team to reach a final in 55 years. You have to reflect unlike back it seems that you are struggling to embrace that you are struggling to embrace that today. Is thatjust that you are struggling to embrace that today. Is that just a that you are struggling to embrace that today. Is thatjust a show of how great your ambitions are . Yes. That today. Is that just a show of how great your ambitions are . Yes, i know in time how great your ambitions are . Yes, i know in time we how great your ambitions are . Yes, i know in time we will how great your ambitions are . Yes, i know in time we will have how great your ambitions are . Yes, i know in time we will have an know in time we will have an appreciation of that. And i know the messages we are getting our underlining that, but when you are in sport and you get to finals, you know those opportunities are so rare, and to be so close and to know what that has taken and to know you have to pick yourself up and go again, the day after, that is very difficult. You have given everything and the inner levels are low, and the emotions are drained. Energy levels. We will go again, of course, but sometimes it is easy to say things like we can go on to win, It Isa things like we can go on to win, it is a bit glib, it is a long journey, we have to qualify, we have steps to take, yes, you have all the complexities of players throughout the Qualifying Period that you have to start that cycle again, this has been fantastic to have the time with the players that we get, to work with them every day, really embed the culture, embed our way of playing, those periods are what you left for as an international manager and when it comes to The End, it is very difficult. To thank yourself and also your communications team, who have changed communications and how it works with broadcasters, journalists, you have given us an enormous amount of time in a pressured situation and we truly appreciate that. Many journalists who appreciate that. Manyjournalists who could not have been at the games because of covid, but you have gone out of your way, we have to thank you for that, and we have to thank you for that, and we hope that Media Relationships can go forward in the same way. That we hope that Media Relationships can go forward in the same way. Go forward in the same way. That is ve kind. Go forward in the same way. That is very kind I Go forward in the same way. That is very kind i am go forward in the same way. That is very kind. I am fortunate go forward in the same way. That is very kind. I am fortunate To Go Forward in the same way. That is very kind. I am fortunate to lead. Very kind. I am fortunate to lead some incredible staff. You have highlighted the guys in the communications department, but all of our staff in all areas are special people. That is why we have been able to create the culture we have. I am fortunate. I sit at the top. As the leader you get all the praise. But the work in the background is phenomenal in all departments. It is a privilege to work with everybody and we do not have the team we have without that support. And about your coaching staff, how important have they been in this journey . Yes, it is critical. The rules are too big for the manager to do everything. The detail that we are able to go to, we have had some consistency and some changes within that group. Martin has been with us throughout the last couple of campaigns and has done a good job. We had Graham And Chris with us this time and that added something different to the group. I am gratefulfor different to the group. I am grateful for what they did. But i have to highlight steve holland, he is a phenomenal coach, a phenomenal man. At times of the season when nobody is thinking about england, travelling back from matches, talking into the early hours, trying to plan things, trying to get things right. Without his support and the quality of his work there is no way we could go to the stages we have in the last couple of Tournaments. I am a fully indebted to what he has done. Bbc five live. I understand that you need to see the match back but i am sure it has been going around in your head over and over again. What is at the forefront of your mind about what you might have done differently Last Night . We picked a team because of a tactical problem that italy pose. Areas of the pitch we needed to get pressure on them, and where we thought we could hurt them. For the first 45 Minutes Everybody would agree that that works. We did not keep the ball well enough for a 15, 20 Minute Period. We know that with midfield players of the quality of verratti, jorginho, that is going to be a strength with italy, they will have possession. We were controlling the game without the ball for long periods, but that period we were a little bit More open. We then could not release that pressure by keeping the ball, which we had done so well in the first half. We changed the shape, which i think gave us a little bit More control, but it did open up spaces elsewhere. Any tactical change, you have strengths and then there are weaknesses to any system. They went with a false nine for a period which is difficult to deal with, for a period which is difficult to dealwith, if for a period which is difficult to deal with, if your Defender Step out you leave spaces, if they stay end you leave spaces, if they stay end you get overloaded a bit in midfield, that is a difficult problem, that is difficult for any team to solve. We did not quite create the chances that we would have liked to, but you are against a team that are incredible in terms of their defensive power as a team, not just the two centre backs. There are lots of things that i will reflect on of course. We do that after every game. That is the right process to go through. Until you watch the game in absolute detail then i would not be giving you a fully accurate appraisal of that. Talk sport. Jordan pickford was superb Last Night.

Jordan, the number of times i have sat here, and his place in the team has been questioned, he has constantly delivered for us. This Tournament i think was his best run of performances for england. He should be hugely proud of that. To concede two goals in seven matches, our entire defence, our entire team, but of course the goalkeeper is a big part of that. Two saves in the Shoot Out. He could do little More in terms of keeping the ball out of our net. That is always a Starting Point for any goalkeeper. He had a really outstanding Tournament. Henry winter of the times.

We know that a lot of players that are still very inexperienced in terms of international football, and have delivered at an incredibly high level, the More experienced players in the big matches were really able to use that experience to defeat germany, who had an incredibly experienced team, to come through a semifinal which was hugely challenging experience for them. And we have taken italy, who are a top, top team, and unbeaten in 30, write top team, and unbeaten in 30, write to the wire. If we had been torn apart or we had looked a mess, then i might be thinking differently about it, but of course we are going to analyse everything, but we are also going to be realistic about that and Notjust Dive into things that and Notjust Dive into things that are not reality and im not the reason for not having one. Are not the reason for not having victory. It is important to reflect carefully and analyse carefully when you are the coach, because i do not want to go along with narratives that probably are not correct, but also i have to reflect on Everything Thatis also i have to reflect on everything that is asked, which is totally fair. Martin samuel, daily mail. Italy martin samuel, daily mail. Italy have now won four World Cups, italy have now won four World Cups, i think it is the second European Championship. I know we have tried to play down History And Everything throughout the Tournament, the significance of it. But is there something in what happened Last Night about the fact it is 55 years, it is so long for as, and the only way you really overcome that is by getting to as many finals, getting to these situations as many times as countries like italy, germany, argentina do, because they have experience of winning, they have experience of winning, they have experience of winning, they have experience of losing, it adds massively to the Football Culture that those players have . Yes, you are right. I remember when yes, you are right. I rememberwhen we look yes, you are right. I rememberwhen we look back yes, you are right. I rememberwhen we look back at jeremys when in 2014 we look back at jeremys when in 2014 they we look back at jeremys when in 2014. They had been to two semifinals germanys victory. Semifinal semifinals germanys victory. Semifinal when they hosted in 2006, the Pain Semifinal when they hosted in 2006, the pain of semifinal when they hosted in 2006, the pain of that but also the experience of that. If you want to sustain experience of that. If you want to sustain success as a team you have to constantly be evolving, constantly improving, constantly finishing constantly improving, constantly finishing in those latter stages. Most finishing in those latter stages. Most teams that win, france went through most teams that win, france went through what were feeling now, 2016, through what were feeling now, 2016, germany did it, as i said, spain 2016, germany did it, as i said, spainwent 2016, germany did it, as i said, spain went close a couple times before spain went close a couple times before the won. That is normally part of before the won. That is normally part of the before the won. That is normally part of the process that you have to Id Part of the process that you have to go through part of the process that you have to go through. The fact we have had the first signs go through. The fact we have had the first signs of go through. The fact we have had the first signs of some consistency, semifinal, first signs of some consistency, semifinal, final, that has to be a step semifinal, final, that has to be a step in semifinal, final, that has to be a step in the semifinal, final, that has to be a step in the right direction. It is not ultimately when we wanted to get to, and not ultimately when we wanted to get to, and when you are so close that is even to, and when you are so close that is even More to, and when you are so close that is even More painful of course. It feels is even More painful of course. It feels like is even More painful of course. It feels like my stomach has been ripped feels like my stomach has been ripped out this morning. But i know when ripped out this morning. But i know when my ripped out this morning. But i know when my logical rain comes back to life in when my logical rain comes back to life in a when my logical rain comes back to life in a few when my logical rain comes back to life in a few days logical rain, that life in a few days logical rain, that is life in a few days logical rain, that is the life in a few days logical rain, that is the process we have got to id that is the process we have got to go through that is the process we have got to go through and we have got to continue go through and we have got to continue that and england had to keep continue that and england had to keep that continue that and england had to keep that track going, whoever is here, keep that track going, whoever is here, whoever is at the fa, at St Georges here, whoever is at the fa, at St Georges park, that is what we have to build Georges Park, that is what we have to build. That was the vision at the start to build. That was the vision at the start we to build. That was the vision at the start. We are showing the signs come up start. We are showing the signs come up with start. We are showing the signs come up with the start. We are showing the signs come up with the clubs who are producing some up with the clubs who are producing some fantastic young players. All of those some fantastic young players. All of those things have to align because any part those things have to align because any part of those things have to align because any part of that fruitful Period Football any part of that fruitful Period Football pyramid that is not strong affects Football Pyramid that is not strong affects the national team. At the moment affects the national team. At the moment a affects the national team. At the moment a lot of things are starting to come moment a lot of things are starting to come together and we have to continue to come together and we have to continue that. John continue that. John cross, mirror. At The End of a Treatment Cycle you see the at The End of a Treatment Cycle you see The End of an era for 18 but you are hardly see The End of an era for 18 but you are hardly going to lose any players are hardly going to lose any players are used are hardly going to lose any players are used for 2022 . In a similar Vein Iguess are used for 2022 . In a similar Vein Iguess it are used for 2022 . In a similar vein i guess it feels like the beginning for this i guess it feels like the beginning for this team . This could be the beginning for this team . This could be the beginning of a journey for a lot of the young beginning of a journey for a lot of the young players . I think russia was the beginning. We had seven i think in the starting team Last Night from russia. That experience has been critical through the big matches in this Tournament. To add to their young players in at the times we did, the inexperienced players in at the times we did, now there is another group with More learning, More understanding of that high level. They will, because of what they have been through in these two treatments, they will once More, they will know they can get close, they will know they can get close, they will know they can get close, they will have belief. That is what we have to build on. It does not guarantee anything because of course you have to start again and you have to earn the right every time you take the field and every time you go into a Tournament. But the cycle and the expectation of the group, when they come together now, will be, this is how it works, this is how we train every day, this is what is needed. This is what we need to do to get to the level to win. That should be a process that stands as in good stead. Press association. Following on from that, what happens with the following on from that, what happens with the group, are they gone now, did you with the group, are they gone now, did you have with the group, are they gone now, did you have one last meeting together . You said Last Night it is about together . You said Last Night it is about the together . You said Last Night it is about the collective rather than individuals. We have discussed the sickening individuals. We have discussed the sickening abuse in that some players. Sickening abuse in that some players, what Support Processes are in place players, what Support Processes are in place for players, what Support Processes are in place for them . We players, what Support Processes are in place for them . Players, what Support Processes are in place for them . We have got to be there, in place for them . We have got to be there. Mickey in place for them . We have got to be there, Mickey Sure in place for them . We have got to be there, Mickey Sure that in place for them . We have got to be there, Mickey Sure that we in place for them . We have got to be there, Mickey Sure that we look there, Mickey Sure that we look after those boys, absolutely. Making sure that we look after those boys. That has been top of my thinking all night. I have forgotten the first part of the question. About what has happened in terms of players about what has happened in terms of players going their separate ways . There players going their separate ways . There was players going their separate ways . There was a long period in the Dressing RoomLast Night. They then went to meet with their families across the road. I am told they had across the road. I am told they had a nice evening together. I managed to see them all individually for a few moments before they left the Dressing Room, because i knew everybody would be heading there only direction at The End of the game. Ijust wanted to thank only direction at The End of the game. I just wanted to thank them all from what they have given because they have been a joy to work with. They have bought into everything we have tried to do. They have been totally unselfish in their outlook. They have all given everything they possibly could. I am tremendously grateful for that. And i know the country is, because you can sense from the reactions of people. They will all head on their way now. They need a break, they need a rest. I hope they all have a fantastic summer. The express. This the express. This is so much different from the postmortem after the last euros. I know postmortem after the last euros. I know you postmortem after the last euros. I know you said earlier, two semifinals and a final now, makes us consistently semifinals and a final now, makes us consistently one of the best teams in europe consistently one of the best teams in europe i consistently one of the best teams in europe. I think we have done that by anticipating what the opposition are doing by anticipating what the opposition are doing and adapting accordingly. In are doing and adapting accordingly. In 2022 are doing and adapting accordingly. In 2022 will we be in a position More in 2022 will we be in a position More to in 2022 will we be in a position More to imprint our own on two games, More to imprint our own on two games, see More to imprint our own on two games, see More of the attacking flair in games, see More of the attacking flair in an games, see More of the attacking flair in an individual level coming through flair in an individual level coming through in flair in an individual level coming through in open play, is that the aim . Aim . No, that has arm . No, that has to be the aim. Some aim . No, that has to be the aim. Some of those players are not yet at that point of their evolution to be able to be cemented in the team, and also there are so many, even coming into this Tournament, so many things that are uncertain in terms of being able to embed one way of playing. The injuries we came in with, the availability that we came in with. We were not quite sure defensively what we were going to look with. Tyrone did a fantasticjob coming into massive situation at the beginning of the Tournament. We had that huge doubt over Harry Maguire at the start. To have defended as well as we did throughout the Tournament, without having been able Tournament, without having been able to play that back forward together too often in two years before. Luke shaw only came back in with us in march for one game, he had a phenomenal Tournament as well. We were constantly dealing with uncertainties. Kalvin phillips, amazing treatment. We were not sure we were going to have him in the weeks leading into the first camp. Amazing Tournament. Remarkable yearin amazing Tournament. Remarkable year in terms of trying to build something consistent. We never had the players altogether until seven days before the start of the Tournament itself. You would liked Tournament itself. You would liked to have built across the entire season, but that was not the realities of the season we had. That should be the aim, moving forward. In some areas of the team we have got clear strength, and players who were in form, and got clear strength, and players who were inform, and in got clear strength, and players who were in form, and in other areas of the team, we do not have quite the same amount of strength and we have had to do it differently, and do it our way. Had to do it differently, and do it ourway. By had to do it differently, and do it our way. By adapting and adjusting we have managed to get to a final. Of course you are always looking for perfection and always looking to improve and we must continue to do that. Rob harris. Does it frustrate you and are rob harris. Does it frustrate you and are you reflecting does it frustrate you and are you reflecting on how to tackle players how you reflecting on how to tackle players how you reflecting on how to tackle players how you how you have players who have generated so much pride that you still have generated so much pride that you still have two address with fans being you still have two address with fans being aggressive, offensive, violence. Being aggressive, offensive, violence, and counter to the image the players violence, and counter to the image the players have presented . We cannot the players have presented . Cannot control that, we can only give the example we think we should, and represent the country in the way that we feel we should when you are representing england. Everybody has to remember when they support the team that they also represent england, and should represent what we stand for. The players have done that brilliantly. We can only continue to dry to affect the things that we can. We have had a positive effect on society but we cannot affect everything, other people have responsibilities in those areas. We have all got to work collectively to constantly improve those things. Olly foster, bbc. Just as those players are really hurting at the moment, especially the three that mr penalties, you take collective Responsibility And Responsibility as well, how much does it hurt you that you did not get things right . You talk about feeling to solve those problems that Roberto Mancini set you. Failing. As a manager you have to accept that whenever there is a defeat there will be intense analysis of everything that happened in the game. I have benefited from a lot of praise during the Tournament. And if we did not get that right Last Night, if i did not get that right Last Night, i have to accept that as well. Some of that analysis could be accurate, and i expect some of it wont be. But i need time to reflect on all of that. You make hundreds of decisions in the course of a week, in the course of a Tournament there are even More, and you are not going to get all of those rights. You call them as you see them at the time. You have got to get More right than wrong. If i did not get the calls right Last Night then so be it, i have to live with that. We concluded there and i thank you all. England an. England manager all. Enland manaergareth all. Enland Manaer Gareth SouthateEngland ManagerGareth Southgate giving that a News Conference there. He said he feels like, my stomach has been ripped out this morning. He said, i know in time we will have an appreciation of what we achieved but to be so close and know that that has been taken away and to have to pick yourself up and go on again, that there is hard. He said, emotions are drained. He said, if you want success you have to consistently be evolving, improving, and in those latter stages of big Tournaments. And he said, the first time now they are seeing some consistency being in the semifinal and final, he said it is a step in the right direction and we need to remember that. The right direction and we need to rememberthat. He the right direction and we need to remember that. He spoke about what happened after the match Last Night, there was a long period in address and with the players, they then met off to see their families. He said he had the moment with each player individually to thank them for all that they have given. He said they had given everything they possibly could. He said, they do need a break and the rest. He was asked about some of the actions of the fans. Of course there has been that social Media Racist tweets and messages sent to those three players that mr penalties Last Night. That has been roundly condemned and on that he said, the team can only set the example they cannot control what fans do but everybody should remember that when they follow the team they represent the country also. Prince william has tweeted on that this morning. He has said, i am sickened by the Racist Abuse aimed at England Players after last Nights Match. There has been condemnation of that Racist Abuse from all quarters this morning. The team have been brilliant throughout that Tournament in terms of seeing, we have got that game in the bag, now we look ahead. He was asked about looking ahead to the world capped 18 months away. He said, it would be glib to say, we could go on to that and when, we have got a whole journey ahead of as, the cycle starts again. That was a News Conference from Gareth Southgate. We will have More reaction to the result of that match. He said he feels sick to the stomach. A lot will empathise with that this morning. You are watching Bbc News. Now, the weather.

Prince william has said hes sickened by the Racist Abuse aimed at England Players after last Nights Match, where Englands Bid to end their 55 year wait for a major trophy In The End came upjust short. It ended in painfully familiar agony of being on the wrong end of a Penalty Shoot out as italy claimed the Euro 2020 crown at wembley. The manager, Gareth Southgate, said the defeat was incredibly painful. The captain, Harry Kane, said it would probably hurt the players for the rest of their careers but that they should be extremely proud of what theyd achieved. Three England Players missed their penalties, the final one from 19 year old Bukayo Saka, who was heartbroken and had to be consoled by his Team Mates and manager. The trios Social Media pages have since been flooded with racist comments, leading the fa to release a statement condemning the disgusting behaviour. Its also been condemned by the prime Minister Borisjohnson. Lets speak to Annita Mcveigh at wembley. Thank you very much and we heard the England ManagerGareth Southgate to stay a short time ago at a News Conference that the team cannot control everything or affect everything. He said they could only set the example that they believe they should. He thought they had a very positive effect on many areas of society but there are some things we cannot effect and of course he was alluding to that Racist Abuse. These players have campaigned on so many issues from Child Poverty to support for the nhs and of course on theissue support for the nhs and of course on the issue of racism, taking me before the final began Last Night at wembley along with the italy side as well supporting that. But still best torrent of abuse levelled at those Three Young BlackEngland Players who took brave. Brave enough to step up and take those penalties who unfortunately missed them. We have heard some of the condemnation of all of that. Listening to what Gareth Southgate had to say as well, you could tell that there had been an emotional tool for losing the game. He said emotions were drained, the Energy Levels were low but he said that when he got his logical Brain Back in a few days time, he believed that he and all the players will pick themselves up, look at the many positives in all of this and move forward.

This Morning Facebook has released a statement following Racist Abuse targeted at players on instagram. It says no one should have to experience Racist Abuse anywhere and we dont want it on instagram. They say we quickly removed comments and accounts directing abuse at englands that bothers Last Night and will continue to take action against those that break our rules. That follows. The statement says in addition, we will work to remove this content and to encourage the players to turn on hidden words, a tool which means no one has to see abuse in their comments. But of course many would say that is dealing with the symptom and not the root cause. And actually the Social Media companies need to get upstream of all of this and get ahead and stop people who want to post these sorts of comments from doing it in the first place. It shouldnt be there to be seen at all. That took so much to our Technology Correspondent. Lets talk. What you make that statement from facebook . It you make that statement from facebook .

This is a huge this vile Racist Abuse. This is a huge test this vile Racist Abuse. This is a huge test with a Social Media companies, probably the biggest test yet because this problem has come back time yet because this problem has come back time and again. We heard about marcus back time and again. We heard about Marcus Rashford having been abused before Marcus Rashford having been abused before before the Europa League final~ before before the Europa League final. They are turning to automation, trying to get machines in place automation, trying to get machines in place to automation, trying to get machines in place to effectively spot the stuff in place to effectively spot the stuff and remove it almost before it is posted stuff and remove it almost before it is posted but that is pretty difficult. We had one example Last Night difficult. We had one example Last Night. Somebody complains about a comment night. Somebody complains about a comment made on one of the instagram Pages Comment made on one of the instagram pages of comment made on one of the instagram pages of one comment made on one of the instagram pages of one of the footballers which pages of one of the footballers which wasjust using pages of one of the footballers which was just using an orgy of an orangutah which was just using an orgy of an orangutan. They got a reply back saying orangutan. They got a reply back saying that our technology has found this comment doesnt go against our community this comment doesnt go against our community guidelines. And emoji of a Wrang Community guidelines. And emoji of a wrang tang. The reply made clear they were struggling to cope with the sheer volume struggling to cope with the sheer volume of complaints and they were leaving volume of complaints and they were leaving it volume of complaints and they were leaving it to the machines in the first place leaving it to the machines in the first place rather than human moderators. It went on, our Technology Isnt perfect and we are continually trying to improve it. This is continually trying to improve it. This is a continually trying to improve it. This is a problem.

I guess some people will call the Response Explanation and excuse and say the Social Media companies have known for a long time what the issues are, and they need to do More to tackle it to stop the comments being put up there in the first place. The people they are directed at, many of these young footballers, have a huge social Media Presence and influence themselves. There was that time when football in england and in other parts of the world, many of remove themselves from Social Media for a period of days in protest.

Americas west is scorched by record breaking heat as California And Nevada brace for even higher temperatures. Sport, and a full round up from the bbc sport centre. The dust settling here after that disappointing result Last Night, frustrating result for england. Hopes high that at long last they could have got over the line in the final, not to be. Despite what was such a brilliant Staff England MattLuke Shaw with that early goal in the first half, a first half that england dominated, a different story in the second half, Gareth Southgate in the second half, Gareth Southgate in the second half, Gareth Southgate in the Press Conference this morning saying his side lost control in that second half against italy, as it aged it was six of time. Once again penalties doing it for england, falling under wrong side of a Penalty Shoot out, so disappointing. Gareth southgate saying how much it hurt for that team and those players who missed those penalties Last Night. Marcus rashford came on as a substitute, he missed his penalty, Jadon Sancho on as a substitute as well, late order that game, one of the first things he had to do was take such a huge spot kick, their biggest match of his life. It was saved, and then another chance to try and keep Englands Dream alive, not to be as the italian goalkeeper saved that spot kick, sparking disappointing scenes, frustration for england, huge sadness at The End, but as you know, Gareth Southgate in that Press Conference saying his thoughts immediately went to those players who missed their penalty, he himself knows what it is like to miss a penalty in a major Tournament, doing so here at wembley in euro 96 as england lost to germany. Lets hearfrom Gareth Southgate now who spoke of the Anguish And Disappointment and sadness. We have had the first signs of consistency semifinal, final, it has to be a step in the right direction, not ultimately where we wanted to get to, and when you are so close, thatis get to, and when you are so close, that is even More painful, it feels like the stomach has been ripped out this morning. But i know when my logical brain comes back to life in a few days, that is the process we have to go through, we have to keep continuing that. The very worst side of football presenting itself Last Night. As weve been hearing this morning, some really disappointing reactions to the defeat. After their penalty misses, it has been condemned. The prime Minister Borisjohnson, the fa, and Prince William have condemened Racst Abuse directed at the three England Players who missed penalties Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho and bakayo saka. The official England Account tweeted were disgusted that some of our squad, who have given everything for the shirt this summer, have been subjected to discriminatory abuse online. We stand with our players. As you can imagine, this is only going to add to calls for some sort of change to be brought about for those Social Media companies to really tackle this issue of racism, which seems to present itself time and again. Marcus rashford, this is not the first time he has suffered Racist Abuse online, when you consider the same thing happened after Manchester United competed in the Europa League final. Lets hear from alan shearer who called it absolutely disgusting. What on earth are people thinking when these guys have been brave enough to go and take a penalty, what are people thinking about to go online and abuse these players . What is wrong with some people . It is so sad and ridiculous, i hope this Social Media companies expose these individuals, absolutely disgusting. It does leave a hugely sour taste in their mouth, and when you consider some of the scenes we saw on full here yesterday on Wembley Way, thousands of fans gathered here, if fee broil atmosphere, certainly spilled over when you consider that some of those fans, a small section who arrive here without tickets, managed to breach security and forced a way through the barriers and Gain Entry into the stadium. This is what the fa Chief Executive had to say about Fan Behaviour at wembley yesterday. It was sad and frustrating to see some of them trying to break into the stadium, unfortunately one or two succeeded, we do not know how many, were still putting together all the evidence to find out what has happened. We will take action against people involved. When we step back and look at the matches we stage at wembley and the positive impact throughout the country, the bias that has been created, we have had so much praise i sure that sets us up well for future Tournaments. If you echoed by Gareth Southgate this morning saying they do not represent or stand for the England Team. A view echoed. You hope it is those images on the pitch, togetherness and that this court have brought throughout this Tournament, you hope that those are the memories that england fans wont cling to and not the scenes we saw unfilled at certain moments here at wembley yesterday. Unfold. Couldnt agree More, got on the subject of abuse, i want to pick up with some breaking lines for you. This from a Twitter Spokesperson who is saying that following the Racist Abuse of Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, yesterday after the game, twitter has removed More than 1000 tweets, and permanently suspended and number of accounts, they do not say how many, but a number have been permanently suspended for the cause of Racist Abuse. We are hearing from manchester please that a mural of Marcus Rashford, Manchester United player, has been vandalised in the Withington Area of manchester, the police say this happened, they heard from someone at around two 50p 2 50am this morning, that the mural had been damaged, the police say it is racially aggravated damage. We are not showing you the pictures of what has been done to the mural, but to explain it has been defaced, the police are calling it racially aggravated damage, and greater Manchester Police a they will be working alongside the City Council and the artist to ensure the graffiti, racialabuse and the artist to ensure the graffiti, racial abuse is removed and the mural is restored as soon as possible. The chief superintendent of the greater Manchester Police says this is disgraceful behaviour and will not be tolerated, Greater Manchester and prides itself on being made up from a number of diverse communities, and hate crime in any form is completely unacceptable. And not welcome here in our city. Lets talk some More now about what has been happening on the pitch, we have discussed englands performance, and what it means for the team going forward. Lets focus for a while on italy. This was a big deal for italy, lets focus for a while on italy. This was a big dealfor italy, they failed to qualify for the last World Cup. Victory Last Night to become European Champions once again, all this metre the last they were champions was in 1968 all the sweeter.

There was a real wildness to the joy, firstly because they failed to qualify for the World Cup last term, they have been through an awful time with covid, a moment of celebration, most of the people in the square will not have remembered the square will not have remembered the last time italy won the European Championships More than 50 years ago, they may not even remember that well the last time they won the World Cup, so it really big moment for this new generation of football fans. This morning there is also a real sense of well being in rome, i have been talking to some of the people in the street behind me, everyone saw the match, everyone wanted to talk about it, one man said it was the highlight of the year, and other couldnt stop laughing when i asked him how he felt about it. Also a lot of sympathy for england. I heard time and again how it was a good team, strong team, the italians were shivering at times, and it is really tough for any team to lose on penalties.

Watching things like wimbledon, the euros, been such a fantastic access to see these Tournaments, competitions, Sporting Events taking place after a period because of the pandemic where many events have been cancelled, so lets talk about the Viewing Figures. They were pretty immense. Colin pattersonjoins me. What with the Viewing Figures . 30. 95 million, almost what with the Viewing Figures . 30. 95 million, almost 31 what with the Viewing Figures . 30. 95 million, almost 31 Million what with the Viewing Figures . 5 million, almost 31 Million people were tuning in at that exact moment, thatis were tuning in at that exact moment, that is the highest Viewing Figures for any event since princess Dianas Funeral in 1997. 31 Million, interesting to see the breakdown, 25 Million of those people by watching on bbc one, 6 Million watching on itv because it was broadcast across both stations. Also interesting that the peak, 31 Million, the average for the match was an absolutely phenomenal 29. 85 million, almost 30 million. Incredible that the average for a game that went to extra time and penalties was only million lower than the peak. With my own eyes i witnessed a couple of younger viewers falling asleep during extra time, i do not know if they count in the figures are not. I time, i do not know if they count in the figures are not. The figures are not. I wonder if we cant all the the figures are not. I wonder if we cant all the people the figures are not. I wonder if we cant all the people who the figures are not. I wonder if we cant all the people who were the figures are not. I wonder if we L Cant all the people who were hiding their heads in their hands or peeping through their fingers during that Penalty Shoot out just to pick up that Penalty Shoot out just to pick up on those figures, it is incredible but not surprising, given that we have graduated months pandemic, we had this audience for a Metre Dash major Sporting Event, and it brought so many people who perhaps would not Watch Football. Than perhaps would not Watch Football. Sift England Game in normal times we perhaps would not Watch Football. fifty England Game in normal times we get 810,000,000, what England Game in normal times we get 8 10,000,000, what you see very clearly here is Excitement Building throughout the Tournament, the quarterfinal peaked at 20 million, semifinal with denmark peaked at 26 Million, the final picking just a fraction below, 31 Million. All kinds of people who would not normally Watch Football were drawn into watch this. The figure for the 1966 World Cup final is often bandied around as the highest Viewing Figure in british history, don a completely different way, tv Viewing Figures were worked out in an astonishingly different way, but the figure is bandied around for 1966 and 32 million, a little behind that, but it is very hard to compare those figures. That, but it is very hard to compare those figures that, but it is very hard to compare those figures. Thank you very much. For many people those figures. Thank you very much. For many people it those figures. Thank you very much. For many people it clearly those figures. Thank you very much. For many people it clearly was for many people it clearly was massey television, even if that Penalty Shoot out, the agony of that was really difficult to watch. Must see television. Enormous stress watching that, of course. The other news developing later in the day is that. With just a week to go before the so called Freedom Day in england, a coalition of 16 health charities are calling on the government to do More to support around half A Million people who are immunocompromised or immunosuppressed, and so may be less protected by the covid 19 vaccine. With me now is Hal Cohen who had a second Kidney Transplantjust before the first lockdown and has been isolating since. Tell us a bit More about what it means to be immunocompromised or immunosuppressed, the impact on your life. ~ immunosuppressed, the impact on your life. , ~. ,. , life.

Thank you for having me, in my case have a Kidney Transplant so i i case have a Kidney Transplant so i take these immunosuppressant drugs, they prevent me from rejecting the kidney. Basically that means i am More susceptible to infections and things like that, and with covid there has been significant impact such as people like myself who have got covid, quite a high incidence of severe illness and death, due to the medication that we take and our weakened immune systems. What medication that we take and our weakened immune systems. What does that mean in terms weakened immune systems. What does that mean in terms of weakened immune systems.

Since then, recent times, i will do things outdoor bar at low risk, but even after being doubly vaccinated i am not sure what protection i have, so i do not do things with indoor mixing, without ventilation, with people who i do not really know if people might be carrying covid or if they are vaccinated, i cannot take the risk.

The challenge that people like me faces those trials so far have only been accessible to people who are not immunocompromised, we are imagery filled out by the criteria, so what really would be great to see from the government, notjust charities, access for people like myself to get access for people like myself to get access to those treatments early, they will hopefully give us some level of protection and allow us to get on with normal life like everyone else.

The captain, Harry Kane, said it would probably hurt the players for the rest of their careers but that they should be extremely proud of what theyd achieved.

Twitter says its removed over A Thousand and has also permanently suspended a number of accounts. Lets speak to Annita Mcveigh at wembley. Thank you very much. Welcome back to wembley. What we saw at the Team Hotel this morning from the England ManagerGareth Southgate, not that we expected anything else from him, was a considered and thoughtful response to the events of the night before so many hopes and expectations resting on the shoulders of the England Team. A young team who had delivered so much in the Tournament and you knew from what the players and Gareth Southgate said in the run up to that final that they really wanted to deliver it for the fans. It wasnt to be at Last Night, that inevitable it seems sometimes Penalty Shoot out. A cruel way to decide any football game. But had seen strong moments from both teams. But italy emerging victorious, Theirfirst European Title since 1968 and huge ioy European Title since 1968 and huge joy for the italian team and their fans after missing out on the last World Cup. Lets reflect a little bit on what Gareth Southgate had to say at that News Conference. He was tired, emotionally drained, he said that was the state of mind of all of the players and the whole team. He said these opportunities are so rare and we were so close. But he said the players would want More as a result of the experience they had gone through here in this Tournament and coming so close to winning the title, they would want More, he said. On that vile Racist Abuse, he said. On that vile Racist Abuse, he said for some of the team to be abused was unforgivable. He said, we have been a beacon of light in bringing people together. The national team stands for everybody. That was the rebuttal by Gareth Southgate, the England Manager, to that Racist Abuse directed towards market rashford, Jayden Sanford and Bukayo Saka. The Three Young BlackEngland Players who bravely took the penalties Last Night but unfortunately missed. Lets hear some More now from Gareth Southgate himself. The players have had an incredible Togetherness And Spirit which i think has brought so many parts of our country together, so they should be, and i think they are, incredibly proud of what they have done. For some of them to be abused is unforgivable, really. I know a lot of that has come from abroad, the people that track those things have been able to explain that, but not all of it. It is just not what we stand for. We have been a beacon of light in bringing people together and people being able to relate to the national team, and the national team stands for everybody. So, that togetherness has to continue and we have shown the power our country has when it does come together and has that Energy And Positivity together. We felt that from the fans and i am incredibly proud of the players, and as i said yesterday, the game, we needed to win in hundred and 20 minutes. We were a little bit short in that period. Then it is my decision who takes the penalties. Its not a case of the players not volunteering or a More experienced players backing out, they didnt have the chance. That was my choice, nobody elses. My decision to give the guys that took it to the penalties that they took. Still got huge belief in them. Those boys have done a brilliantjob and we heal together as a team now. We are therefore them. Olly foster is at the grove hotel. I believe Gareth Southgate left the hotel a short while ago. I i believe Gareth Southgate left the hotel a short while ago.

There was a ripple of applause from about two dozen fans who their way into this Luxury Golf Resort in hertfordshire. You can hear them there. Gareth southgate give them a wave and waved out of the window of his limousine as he was driven away. He says he needs a break now to collect his thoughts. I think they all do because it has been such an intense month of this euros, seven matches played, getting further than any other England Team since 1955 and listen it by those margins of missed penalties. Losing. Today, as he did in the immediate aftermath of that Penalty Shoot out, he shielded his players. He said Last Night they were not alone as they walk to the penalty spot, possibly the longest walk, it must have felt. Today he said, it was my responsibility, but did not have the option. I chose who we take the penalties. Obviously, it didnt work out with those three missed Spot Kicks. Obviously, england facing questions as well now from the behaviour of their fans and that apple warrant Racist Abuse online. He says we dont represent that. We are a beacon of light and we will continue to set an example. That abhorrent Racist Abuse. Is it about what they are doing to stop these vile comments, this hate crime, the Racist Abuse appearing on the social Media Platforms in the first instance . This Morning Facebook has released a statement following the abuse targeted at players on instagram. It says no one should have to experience Racist Abuse anywhere, and we dont want it on instagram. We quickly removed comments and accounts directing abuse at englands footballers Last Night and well continue to take action against those that break our rules. And the former england forward alan shearer gave his reaction to the Racist Abuse this morning. There are so many positives for Social Media but also so many negatives. The positives are it allows a lot of these players and the squad to show their personality both on the pitch and off the pitch, and we have seen some of the great work that Raheem Sterling has done, Marcus Rashford has done. But on the negative side and what on earth are people thinking about when these guys have been brave enough to go and take a penalty, what are people thinking about to go online and abuse these players . What is wrong with some people . It is just so sad and ridiculous. I hope the Social Media companies expose these individuals. Absolutely disgusting. Lets hear More on this from our political correspondent, Chris Mason about the political reaction to that abuse. It about the political reaction to that abuse. ~ about the political reaction to that abuse. , ~. , abuse. It is striking how politicised abuse. It is striking how politicised the abuse. It is striking how politicised the reaction l abuse. It is striking how. Politicised the reaction has abuse. It is striking how politicised the reaction has been. Yes, there is widespread condemnation of that abuse of the England Players but certainly some teasing out of what they see as a certain amount of hypocrisy on the part of the Prime Minister and some seniorfigures in part of the Prime Minister and some senior figures in government. Part of the Prime Minister and some seniorfigures in government. Let me show you tweets from the Prime Minister. This was around about seven oclock this morning. Boris johnson saying the England Team deserved to be lauded as heroes, not racially based on Social Media. Those responsible for this appalling abuse should be ashamed of themselves. A categoric condemnation from the Prime Minister of the abuse of the England Players. Sir Keir Starmer, the labour leader, echoing the language from borisjohnson, saying that anyone racially abusing the England Players is a disgrace and doesnt represent us at all. More can and must be done to stop online abuse, but a tweet from his deputy Angela Rayner saying, let me be clear, the Prime Minister and the Home Secretary gave license to the bassists who booed the England Players and racially abusing England Players. Borisjohnson and Priti Patel, a reference to the Home Secretary, are like arsonists complaining about a fire that they poured petrol on. Total hypocrites, she says. That is a reference to a willingness at an earlier stage of the Tournament, or an unwillingness, from Downing Street to directly condemn the billing by some fans of the taking of the knee by England Players and others during the Tournament. Billing. A little later on the altar of their language and said players should respect a decision, fans should respect the decision, fans should respect the decision taken by players if they chose to take the knee. Chris mason reporting. Let me bring you news about an apology from the conservative mp from dover who has apologised for suggesting that Marcus Rashford should have spent More time focusing on football than coach, playing politics after he missed a penalty Last Night. This morning she said in a statement, i applaud the England Team who gave their all in the Euro 2020. Last night i shared the Frustration And Heartbreak of millions of other england fans. She goes on, i regret messaging privately a rash reaction about Marcus Rashfords missed penalty and apologised to him for any suggestion that he is not fully focused on football. She is referring there to a message sent on a Whatsapp Group that included other conservative mps. She goes on risk to the World Cup and i look forward to the World Cup and i look forward to Marcus Rashfords and edition at that time. She apologises for suggesting Marcus Rashford should have spent More time football and less on politics. Let me just remind you about some other music brought to you a short while ago. This is coming from greater Manchester Police following the Racist Abuse on Social Media. A mural of Marcus Rashford in weathering manchester, the mural which is in a street has been vandalised. Police have said it is racially aggravated damage. Not showing images of what that consisted of. But greater Manchester Police say they are going to be working alongside manchester City Council and and the artist to remove the graffiti and make sure the mural is restored as soon as possible. The chief Superintendent Paul Savill said this is disgraceful behaviour, will not be tolerated. He said Greater Manchester prides itself on the made up from a number of diverse communities and hate crime in any form is completely unacceptable and is not welcome here in our city. Greater Manchester Police are appealing for anyone who has any information to help identify the offender or offenders behind what they are calling a hate crime that is racially aggravated vandalism of the mural of Marcus Rashford in manchester. Following the Racist Abuse on Social Media, we have heard from twitter that they have removed over 1000 posts and primly suspended a number of accounts following. A number of accounts looking over 1000 posts and primly suspended a number of accounts looking More broadly at the Racist AbuseLast Night, i spoke to our Technology Correspondent and discussed with him what the Social Media companies were saying and what More they were going to try to do to tackle this. It is claiming they quickly remove comments and accounts. We know an awful lot do get to get through and it is throwing it back at the users to protect themselves. Im sure a lot of people will say they shouldnt have to go to extra measures to protect themselves from this vile Racist Abuse. This is a huge test for the Social Media companies, probably the biggest test yet because this problem has come back time and again. We heard about Marcus Rashford having been abused before after the Europa League final. They are turning to automation, trying to get machines in place to effectively spot this stuff and remove it almost before it is posted but that is pretty difficult. We had one example Last Night. Somebody complained about a comment made on one of the instagram pages of one of the footballers which wasjust using an emoji of an orangutan. They got a reply back saying that our technology has found this comment doesnt go against our community guidelines. The reply made clear they were struggling to cope with the sheer volume of complaints and they were leaving it to the machines in the first place rather than human moderators. It went on, our Technology Isnt perfect and we are continually trying to improve it. This is a problem. It underlines the sheer volume of abuse that facebook, Instagram And Twitter are all dealing with. Their attempts to use technology to counter it and the fact that that technology is still pretty limited, for instance, in understanding what an emoji which might be completely innocent in one context means in another context. I guess some people will call the Response And Explanation an excuse and say the Social Media companies have known for a long time what the issues are, and they need to do More to tackle it to stop these comments being put up there in the first place. The people they are directed at, many of these young footballers, have a huge social Media Presence and influence themselves. There was that time when football in england and in other parts of the world, many removed themselves from Social Media for a period of days in protest. The Social Media companies do not want to lose the presence of people like that on platforms, do they . They dont and they know how important it is. It underlines how difficult to control these vast platforms are. And how regulations now are a real threat to them. We Know Mainstream media organisations, if such comments appeared on their platforms, would be in deep trouble with ofcom, the regulator. That hasnt been the case up until now but that kind of regulation is probably coming down the track. There will be More and More pressure on them to deal with material that sometimes is not actually illegal. This is the difficult area. Material that is abusive and harmful but not technically illegal. They will say they have a difficult tightrope to walk because on the one hand they are accused of acting as a kind of sensor and a decision maker, and on the other hand they are accused of allowing this kind of Hate Speech to flourish. Lets Leave Wembley for the moment but stay with sports and head to the bbc Sports Centre to join gavin. Thank you very much indeed. As we have been hearing all morning and into the afternoon, england came heartbreakingly close but their European Dream ended in penalty defeats to italy at wembley Last Night after reaching their first major Tournament final in 55 years. Hopes are high ahead of the Match But Incidence off the pitch and dominating the headlines, both Fan Behaviour and the stadium. And unfortunately Racist Abuse aimed at some of the England Players following that loss. England manager Gareth Southgate said he took responsibility for the Shoot Out defeats but said the team are making progress. We defeats but said the team are making rouress. ~. Defeats but said the team are making rouress. ,. , progress. We have had the first sins progress. We have had the first si. Ns of progress. We have had the first signs of some progress. We have had the first signs of some consistency, progress. We have had the first| signs of some consistency, semi final, final, it has to be a step in the right direction. It is not ultimately where we wanted to get to and when you are so close, it is even More painful of course. It feels like your stomach has been ripped out this morning, but i know when my logical brain comes back to life in a few days, that is the process we have to go through. We have got to keep continuing that. Questions have been asked about the Policing And Security at the game after fans managed to Policing And Security at the game afterfans managed to push through the barriers at wembley before the Match And Gain entry into the stadium. Englands Chief Executive says he was sad and frustrated to see it. It says he was sad and frustrated to see it. ,. , says he was sad and frustrated to see it. ,. ,. , see it.

One or two succeeded, we dont know how many yet and were still pulling together all the evidence to find out what happened. We will take action against people involved. I think when we step back and look at the matches we are staged at wembley on the positive impact and buzz that has been created, we have had so much praise. That sets us in good stead for future Tournaments. The en. Land stead for future Tournaments. The england developed and what happens next will continue throughout the day. Gareth southgate was very effective in his Press Conference but had the team will go forward now, progression. They did very well to get to the final of the euros and investigations will be continuing into those tweets on Social Media and the abuse of the three players we saw earlier on today. That is the sport for now. We will have More in the next hour. We havejust sport for now. We will have More in the next hour. We have just received some new pictures of what happens when fans tried to force their way into the stadium without tickets. Very dramatic pictures here. The clashes with the security and people breaking through. Running into the stadium. Incredible pictures here. This was a couple of hours before Kick Off. When those fans decided to force their way into the stadium, some did manage to get inside Wembley Stadium. A spokesman at the time said a small group of people got into the stadium and they were working closely with Stadium Security and stewards to remove this people. Yeah, those new pictures from the ones we were seeing before are a different perspective of this clashes with security as this england fans managed, some of them, to break their way into the stadium. Prime Minister Borisjohnson is expected to confirm later the plan to lift almost all legal restrictions on social contact in england on 19july, but has urged people to be cautious. He warned that covid 19 cases, currently at about 30,000 a day, would continue to rise as society reopened. Lets speak now to devi sridhar, professor of global public health at the university of edinburgh. Welcome, thank you very much for joining us. The tone is changing a bit from the government in terms of now talking about More vigorously about wanting people to wear masks. What are your thoughts on how things stand now .

I think there is definitely a change in tone because what we are seeing is dealt, this new variant that is taking over across the world is a game changer. Not only in britain but across europe, the united states, east asia, australia. We are seeing country struggling with a whole new world in terms of what they have to do to suppress this virus. I think we will see from the government, not a backtracking that More caution, saying do we want to call this Freedom Day as cases arising everywhere or do we try to release restrictions cautiously, keep face coverings in place, put in place of regular testing, coverings in place, put in place of regulartesting, push coverings in place, put in place of regular testing, push people again to keep getting vaccinated and keep this challenge of the battle against the virus. ,. , , the virus.

How did we find ourselves in the position of being one of the i in the position of being one of the most vaccinated countries, the latest stats are 87 of adults have had a single jab, 66 to jabs and yet we have the highest delta cases . The delta cases are largely because of our travel policies were they cannot a new variant coming in, they cannot a new variant coming in, they can delay it. Because we delayed pitting india on the red list, and the embolus doesnt work to stop the spread of infections, it managed to gain a foothold in take off. Other places are seamless across the united states and europe but they had a couple weeks to get ahead of it and that is why we have it ticking off that quickly. The challenges now we have a lot of unvaccinated young people, like children under the age of 18, who are not eligible for a vaccine but the 18 to 30 year old Age Group which is where we are seeing a in infections.

I think if we look at the united states, if you look across europe and israel, they have made the decision to vaccinate those 12 and older given there is an approved vaccine. This is not a mandatory vaccination programme. No child is going to be forced to have as against their will or their parents well, it is an option for those parents and teens who say actually prefer to have the vaccine enter protection than those who remain completely susceptible. Increasingly, the choice across the world is going to be having covid or having covid at it you are vaccinated. We already have enough evidence to know the latter option, to be vaccinated and then to be exposed is far better in terms of your chances of getting prolonged covid in severely ill for months. What would you like the policy to be going forward in terms of vaccination and what happens in terms of restrictions . The government is clear on the choice to test taking at this point in restrictions, but do you think that is right . Restrictions, but do you think that is riuht .

I cannot point any country in the world and say they are winning at this. In 2020 there were Countries Country is littered exceptionally well, but they are now struggling with delta. It is challenging for everywhere. Here in the uk, it means is coverings indoors, that is an easy way in the sense we can keep shops open and maintain the profits we have made, that is something simple we can do for Each Other. The second thing is we have to anticipate a spite because of the football. It is impossible to look at the seams In London and across the country, not just at wembley but all the parting that has taken place in pubs and restaurants and homes, to think it is not going to lead to my mixing and transmission. Caution is needed. The shift of governance messaging away from Freedom Day and The End of pandemic two how do we now take the measures in place to stay where we are, maintain the gains we have, all of the opening we already have, the businesses that are able to operate . Lets keep them going because we could go backwards as we are seeing other parts of the world go back into lockdown.

There are ways in which we can suck a More harsh blanket restrictions or large bubbles that have to isolate are all contacts by using double vaccinations and testing. And those two protections together, meaning someone is double vaccinated, they test negative, can be a wee weekly businesses open and keep the nhs money because this is happening to hospitals with doctors and Health Staff as well as a points functioning. We are going to have to replace some of the More harsh medieval ways of managing this because quarantine is something that has been used as the 15th century with actually the technology we now have which is rapid testing, accurate testing and double vaccinations which are proven to be very effective at stopping severe disease and death.

Slow moving thunderstorms elsewhere, gaps between, some of you sit there, sunshine around this afternoon, temperatures high teens and low 20s. Rumbling on in the evening, fading for many as we go into tonight, some continuing in the Palm North East of scotland, 20 of cloud around, temperatures like recent nights, 12 15 c tuesday morning. Another great and misty start for many, no windy as wet for england and wales at this morning.

It should feel a touch warmer. Hello, this is Bbc News. The headlines. As england lose to italy in the euros final. Three black players who missed in the Penalty Shoot out have been targeted with Racist Abuse on Social Media. It is unforgivable, really. I know a lot of that come from abroad, people that track those things have been able to explain that, but not all of it, and It Isjust not able to explain that, but not all of it, and it is just not what we stand for. Prince william joins the pm and others in condemning the Racist Abuse as twitter deletes over 1,000 tweets and permanently suspends a number of accounts.

Americas west is scorched by record breaking heat as California And Nevada brace for even higher temperatures. While the euros final ended with disappointment for the England Team, the overwhelming response from supporters up and down the country has been one of Pride And Hope for the future. Graham satchell has More. The agony of losing in a Penalty Shoot out. Gutted. Its heartbreaking. Ive never been More heartbroken. Horrible Commentator Rashford has missed. To lose on penalties again isjust devastating. Absolutely devastating. The night started with hope, expectation even. This is the Kirby Estate in bermondsey In London. In trafalgar square, fans were desperate for an all night party. Weve made it, were here, come on, england this is mark and his dad, john. John was at wembley for the 1966 final and hes back. He didnt have long to wait before the whole country was in dreamland. Trippier. Its trippier who will cross and its Luke Shaw were going to enjoy these goal celebrations, because to be honest, there wasnt much else to celebrate all night. In fan zones and front rooms, england wasjumping. Oh, my god the night settled into a cagey, tense encounter, then inevitably, the almost random chaos of penalties. From euphoricjoy. To total despair. That is such a devastating way for england fans to see their team going out of the Tournament, again, on penalties. And yet, in defeat, Gareth Southgates men have played with unity, with purpose, with dignity and with pride. They need to get their heads up they brought this country together like we have on the Kirby Estate. Im super proud of them. Now come and pay us a visit. See you soon, boys. Keep your heads up high, boys. Come on, its all right, its all right. After the pandemic as well, it has brought the whole nation together, a really positive light and i think we have a lot to thank them for. Ive got a newborn in there, hes been listening to his first few games. Hopefully when he gets old enough, next time, we will be lifting something. We move on and lets hope for success in the next four years. Come on, england its going to come home soon, itsjust got lost. Its a question of when so, desperate disappointment for england fans, but huge pride at what this team has already achieved and what it might do in the future. Graham satchell, Bbc News. An update from heathrow, about More than 100 Heathrow Security Staff being paying, which meant there was disruption at terminal five, long queues we were hearing from passengers via twitter, heathrow is confirming there was disruption earlier because of the paying from the nhs test and trace out, but due to colleagues being instructed to self isolate, they have activated additional team members as a result of that, so now those additional team members have meant that the operation has now returned to normal and they are apologising to passengers for any inconvenience caused. The Viewing Figures from last Nights Euro finals have been released and they were huge. Annita mcveigh spoke to our Entertainment Correspondent Colin paterson earlier. The Viewing Figures during the Penalty Shoot out was 30. 95 million, almost 31 Million people were tuning in at that exact moment. That is the highest Viewing Figure for any event since princess Dianas FuneralWay Backin since princess Dianas Funeral way back in 1997. 31 Million, interesting to see the breakdown, 25 Million of those people were watching on bbc one, Six Million watching on bbc one, Six Million watching on bbc one, Six Million watching on itv, because it was broadcast across both stations. Now, also what is interesting with these figures, the peak, 31 Million, the average for the match was an absolutely phenomenal 29. 85 million, almost 30 million, incredible that the average for a game that went to extra time and penalties was only million lower than the peak. I can tell you, with my own eyes, i witnessed a couple of younger viewers falling asleep during extra time, i do not know if they counted the figures are not. Time, i do not know if they counted the figures are not. The figures are not. Counts in the. I the figures are not. Counts in the iwas the figures are not. Counts in the i was if the figures are not. Counts in the. I was if we the figures are not. Counts in the. I was if we count the figures are not. Counts in the. I was if we count the the figures are not. Counts in| the. I was if we count the people who were had their heads in the hands or peeping through their fingers during the Penalty Shoot out. To pick up on those figures, it is incredible that. But not surprising given that we have gone to 18 months a pandemic, that we had this audience for a major Sporting Event like this, i dont brought along so many people who perhaps may traditionally not Watch Football. Watch football. Absolutely, and en. Land Watch Football. Absolutely, and England GameWatch Football. Absolutely, and England Game in Watch Football. Absolutely, and England Game in normal Watch Football. Absolutely, and England Game in normal times| Watch Football. Absolutely, and England Game in normal times would get 810,000,000, what England Game in normal times would get 8 10,000,000, what you have seen clearly here is the Excitement Building throughout the Tournament, the quarterfinal with ukraine, peaking at 20 million, semifinal with denmark, that peaked at 26 Million, the final peak injust with denmark, that peaked at 26 Million, the final peak in just a fraction below 31 Million. All kinds of people who would not normally Watch Football were drawn into whats this. The figure for the 1966 World Cup final is often bandied around as the highest Viewing Figure in british history, done a completely different way, tv Viewing Figures were worked out in an astonishingly different way, but the figure that is bandied around 419 six the six is 32 million, so it little behind that, but i think its very hard to compare those two figures.

Translation we are defending what we did 60 years ago. That this is ours. That it has cost many lives. That capitalism will never come back here again. And that these mercenaries, paid by the empire, will never again take our streets. They will have to kill us all first. Demonstrations of this kind are rare in cuba.

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has been speaking in the past few minutes, hes condemned the online Racist AbuseEngland Players faced. Iam afraid i am afraid the Prime Minister has failed the test of leadership because whatever he says today about racism, he had a simple choice at the beginning of this Tournament in relation to the booing of those that were taking the knee, the players taking the knee, they medically abiding when taking the knee, the Prime Ministerfailed to abiding when taking the knee, the Prime Minister failed to call that out.

Honestly, it can be feel even hotter because there is no shade and that sun is just beating down on visitors, so do come either very early for a Sunrise Hike or stay late and stargaze and be out here when there is no sun. Las vegas has also matched its all time high temperature the Entertainment City reached 47. 2 celsius. The authorities said several people were taken to hospital over the weekend with heat related conditions. Scientists say there is growing evidence that climate change is fuelling extreme weather patterns, and they are likely to become More common. Last month was the hottestjune on record in North America. The high temperatures of the past few days are expected to ease off by the middle of the week, but the heatwaves this summer have been relentless and the months that are usually the hottest are still to come.

Prince william joins the pm and others in condemning the Racist Abuse as twitter deletes over A Thousand tweets and permanently suspends a number of accounts. Borisjohnson is expected to announce lifting the remaining coronavirus restrictions in england in one weeks time but people will be urged to wear face masks in crowded places. A tough line expected from the government. Last Nights Match will have given pubs and bars across the country a much needed financial boost. With restrictions set to ease further next week, the Hospitality Sector will be hoping this momentum continues. Sarah corker is at a brewery in salford this morning. Around 100 people watched the final Last Night here at severn Brothers Brewery in salford. There are five big screens on the walls. But social distancing rules meant that they were still only operating at about 80 capacity. But the football has brought a welcome economic boost for many businesses. Beer sales here have surged over the last couple of weeks. In fact, an estimated 7 Million pints a day and Last Night alone. The Hospitality Sector, though, is now planning for the 19th ofjuly. That is when final restrictions are expected to be lifted. Social distancing rules could be relaxed, wearing a facemask could become a personal choice, night clubs could reopen again, and we could all have a drink at the bar and start queueing instead of Table Service, so lots of changes ahead. We are expecting to hear More details on the timescale from Downing Street later on today. Businesses, you know, lots of challenges, now looking to the weeks and months ahead. With me now is keith, the manager of the brewery, good morning, keith. A quick question about Last Night, how much has of a boost has the football been for sales . Football has been incredible. Ever since restrictions started to be lifted from april into may, the last fortnight, the last four weeks, actually, the football has been incredible for businesses. And what about next week onwards, what changes will you be making if rules are relaxed . Hopefully, rules will be relaxed. It will be tricky for us, because, you know, we are a manufacturer as well as a retailer. Here we make the beer and we have our bars as well. So it is going to be tricky because people are going to have to be cautious. So we will take it, we will listen to our customers and see what they want. And take it from there, really. And you are expanding as well. Namely, a new taproom at manchester airport. So More people travelling and those rules relaxed will be really important for you as well. Yeah, thankfully, we are getting news that Air Travel is going to get the go ahead. People are getting vaccinated which is incredible. So that news is a huge boost to our business. But we will see, we will see how it goes. It is something we have been planning for the last 18 months as well. This should have happened last april. So we are really, really pleased that things are starting to, you know, we are looking forward to basically. Some cautious optimism there. Thank you. One of the things that may change is the work from Home Guidance could be lifted, businesses reliant on that Commuter Trade in city centres, they could have a lot to kind of look forward to going forward. And, jason, you have got a big garden, a big bit of open space, how important has that been over the last 18 months . Its been huge. Its been absolutely critical. I think without that and a very friendlyl landlord, we wouldnt be here. And the football really helped Last Night to get bums on seats . Yes, definitely helped, definitely thirsty. So we got from. This week was probably our best week of the entire year. We have talked a lot about staffing and the Hospitality Sector, recruiting at the moment, what challenges have you come across in terms of getting the chefs, the waitresses, the bartenders that you need . As for recruitment, we have not been able to get to the level that we needed, especially with |the football, these busy shifts. | we have been pretty constantly running a| couple of people short on every shift. Which means the team have to work that bit harder to make it work. And Table Service, presumably, means that you need More staff to do that as well. Will you be keeping the Table Service option or will we be seeing More people queueing at the bar again like we used to . We are going to be pragmatic and as cautious as we possibly can be. We will let some people up to the bar, | but not quite back to what it usedj to be, but we will also be keeping Table Service open for those people i who are a little bit nervous or. Might be vulnerable themselves. Thank you very much. Good luck for the future. And some businesses are allowing their staff a later start this morning so, you know, theyll get a lie in, time to recover from the drama of Last Night.

Back where it all began. Croatia, a fresh start. Englands first Opening Match Victory in euros history. Scotland, back to reality. Out fought, outsung. But then, czech mate, england through as group winners. Into the knock outs, an old rival vanquished. In comes The Captain. A nation could breathe. To rome, to meet ukraine. The italianjob became a demolition. The edge of our seats never felt so comfortable. Back to wembley, a new feeling. That is some sort of wonder strike. But debated decisions fell on englands side. Celebrations went long into the night. Into the final of a major Tournament, for the first time in 55 years. So to the final, and glory beckoned for the history boys. Penalties. A nation covered its eyes. Throughout, this team had rewritten the stories of the past, but this time it was a repeat. The best is yet to come, though, from Englands History boys. Ina in a moment the news that one. Now the weather. We have already seen wet weather this morning, the same area of low pressure that brought showers and long spells of Rain Yesterday has been meandering since, extending its influence across most of the uk, there will be further torrential downpours to come. Particularly close to low pressure, in southern part of england, flash flooding, spray and standing water, but like recent days because cfu thunderstorms further north, scotland, Northern Ireland, northern england. Because of the thunderstorms. Temperatures down with mcleod but stopped 21 22 in the lengthier sunny spells. Still pleasant in the sunshine. Showers running on into the evening before easing overnight, low cloud coming back to the east, the 0rd Pocket of Mist And Fog elsewhere, as Last Night still relatively warm, 12 14, but tomorrow looks drier, fewer showers, lengthy spells of sunshine coming through. Cannot rule out the order shower, fair amount of instability, one or two showers popping up. Instability, one or two showers popping up, fewer than we have seen today and yesterday. As a result, lengthy spells of sunshine, temperatures responding better, 22 or 24 in a team sports but with very high levels of pollen be expected. As we go through the rest of the night that my we, low Pressure Close to southern and eastern areas, but also by that stage we have this Weather Front brushing into the North West, More cloud coming into northern and western parts of scotland, the islands as well, still the chance of that northerly Breeze Close to the area of low pressure, but it is essentially a dry picture with long spells of sunshine, strong sunshine coming through, potentially some high levels of pollen. That is it, the trend really for the week, the fact we have this High Pressure moving in, pushing weatherfront the fact we have this High Pressure moving in, pushing Weather Front out of the way, no pressure out of the way further south, bringing us More settled conditions. It should be drierfor settled conditions. It should be drier for most, settled conditions. It should be drierfor most, sunny settled conditions. It should be drier for most, sunny spells lengthier, the temperatures responding, creeping a little higher by day. As ever, there is More on the website, including the warnings. Prince william says hes sickened by the racial abuse of the england footballers who missed their penalties in Last Nights defeat to italy. Hes called the online abuse of these three stars abhorrent and unacceptable. Its also been condemned by englands manager. It is unforgivable, really. I know a lot of that has come from abroad, you know, people that track those things have been able to explain that. But not all of it, and its just not what we stand for. It follows a night of heartache for england fans, as hopes and dreams of ending half a century of hurt ended in familiar despair. But celebrations in rome where the victorious italian team arrived back this morning to a heros welcome
