scottish players who want to be part of the team gb squad — not that they're thinking that way, asjo currie reports. it's been a qualifying campaign of twists and turns for the lionesses, but now they are one game away from taking a big step towards securing teamgb a spot at next summer's olympic games. itjust so happens to be against a very familiar foe — scotland. not only do we have to win it, there are goals that come along with it, it's notjust you win the game and it's done. we're going to have to really go for it, you know, just let loose from the very first whistle to the last whistle. you know some energy, you try to win in the game. we have to go hell for leather. england sit second in the group, level on points with the netherlands who have a better goal difference of three. with belgium only point behind. what that means is england know they need to beat scotland and potentially by a big score if they are to secure a place in the nations league semi—finals. but does that pose a conflict to the scottish players? that's because if scotland win tonight teamgb go to paris, so any scottish players would also miss out. if scotland players have any hopes of featuring at the games they will benefit from losing to england. could make it all a bit awkward? to have played for my country as many years as i have — you know the girls are sitting there, to know the ones who want to be here, who are injured and can't be here, i think it's absolutely outrageous to question anyone�*s integrity and i think it's a huge insult to us. that's the rudest thing i've ever heard. a scottish player would be, i think, if anything that is going to motivate the scottish players more to not lose to england, that people would even question their integrity. scotland have already finished bottom of the group and will be relegated, but can still prove to be england's final hurdle of the campaign. jo currie, bbc news, glasgow. next, to a significant moment in england in the men's game, where the premier league has agreed a new record £6.7 billion domestic television deal for sky and tnt to show up to 270 live games a season. england's top flight says the deal, which covers the four years from the 2025—26 season, is the "largest sports media rights deal ever concluded in the uk". sky sports will show a minimum of 215 matches a season, while tnt sports will show a minimum of 52 games. the deal comes into effect from the 2025—26 season. unsurprisingly, sky sports, who have shown the premier league since 1992, are the majority broadcasters again. 215 games they will be showing in total. the current premier league deal still has two years on it, so the deals we're talking about now don't come into effect until the 2025—2026 season. all sunday 2pm kick—offs, they are going to be live, obviously they will put in place to help teams that play in europe, some as late as thursday night. one more thing, there had been speculation that saturday kick—offs at 3pm, there could be a lifting of the ban to show these games. that won't happen this time around and a big part of the premier league thinking is that they want fans to go to the stadiums and watch football, notjust sit on their sofas at home and watch and obviously the clubs need supporting with the gate receipts and everything that comes with it as well. the bbc�*s match of the day highlights will have more of that on the bbc website. now to rugby, where referee tom foley says he's taking a break from the international game because of what he calls the "torrent of criticism and abuse" he received after the world cup final. foley was the television match official during that game when a yellow card for new zealand's sam cane was upgraded to red after a tmo review. he'll continue to officiate domestically in england. speaking to the bbc�*s jack killah, foley's been describing some of the abuse he's received. a warning — you may find some of what he says upsetting. what is quite frightening is, i think, at last count there will be 2000 messages, sorry, 2000 posts against major officials from the world cup which had reached they would consider as prosecution threshold. now, prosecution threshold is threats to life, direct threats to life, threats of violence, threats of sexual violence, and so on — against us and against families. so that puts it into context the scale of the problem. some of the messages you have had have been absolutely vile. yes. can you, without going into huge detail, go into any detail about the type of tone? yes, talking about family dying a slow cancer death, families being — hoping that my family die in a horrific car accident. and there were literally hundreds. the international ice hockey federation has said it will be mandatory for players to wear neck guards at all levels of competition. the announcement follows the death of nottingham panthers forward adam johnson in late october after he suffered a fatal neck injury while playing. the english ice hockey association confirmed in october that wearing a neck guard will be mandatory during "all on—ice activities" from 2024 onwards. paris's deputy mayor says there'll be no safer place in the world than the french capital during next summer's olympic games, following a knife and hammer attack in the city on saturday. anti—terrorism prosecutors opened an investigation after a german man died and two others were injured, with one man being arrested. paris plans to hold the opening ceremony outside a stadium for the first time in the history of the summer games and deputy mayor pierre rabadan has told french television the city is "confident to guarantee safety." meanwhile, the commonwealth games federation say they're in active conversations to find a host to step in a short notice following the gold coast's decision to pull out of holding the games in 2026. the city hosted the games in 2018, but it's failed to convince federal and state governments to support their bid to hold the event once again. the news comes after the canadian province of alberta abandoned its plans to to host the 2030 games. this has all been going on around trying to secure a host for the commonwealth games, getting a new one after victoria injuly decided that it was not going to be the host. and still we're back to that same point — no host for the commonwealth games. it does sound justifiable to be, yeah, we can't possibly be spending that much money on an event that, at the moment, not everyone is in love with. so what is going to do for us? england's women cricketers are preparing for the first match of their tour of india. they'll play three t20 matches, starting on wednesday, and then a four—day test from 14th until the 17th december. heather knight will lead both sides. all rounder sarah glenn says she can't wait to get started. it's something i have always looked forward to and wanted to be a part of, so i think this tour is just more fun and games here, it is for me to develop my game along with others, how i go about it, and the conditions, it's where i can take my spin bowling as well. so if we want to be attacking and looking to take wickets, whatever the conditions are, i think it is adapting to how we take those wickets, i think, so it is not really changing the mindset of front foot forward and taking wickets, we have kind of that mentality. for us it has been able to do that in different conditions. so that is just something i can learn playing in india for the first. we are training this evening so i'll get to see what it like and have a play around with that and learn what is the best way to kind of take wickets and still be positive, despite the conditions. my responsibility is to keep talking to the youngsters about what i have experienced and then i speak to the senior players about what i can learn. it is kind of a 2—way street and i think i can't forget that i think of myself as a senior player, because ijust feel likea kid. i thinkjust keep learning from them as well and their experiences. and, finally, tiger woods says it was fun to be back out playing competitive golf once again. after taking part in his first tournament since withdrawing from the masters in april with an ankle injury, woods finished on level par at the hero world challenge in the bahamas — coming 18th in a 20—man field — and says it's good to be back. i haven't done it in a while. i haven't done it with my ankle the way it is now. and i was excited each and every day to kind of get through it and kind of start piecing rounds together again. i haven't done this in a long time so it was fun to feel that again. and that is all your sport. you can get all the latest sports news at from the bbc sport app orfrom our website — that's bbc.com/sport. from me and the rest of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. hello. it is starting to turn less cold. that process, the transition to mild weather has already begun but we're not really going to feel it until the end of the week and into the weekend. in fact, there's still a chance of some frosts. now, let's have a look at the big picture then on tuesday. so low pressure close by with a wind off the north sea. so still a bit of an easterly, thick cloud and outbreaks of rain through the early hours across many parts of england and wales, maybe southern parts of scotland and into eastern northern ireland, but clear spells there in the north highlands and also around western parts of northern ireland. so a sharp frost in some spots early on tuesday, but not frosty in england and wales. and then here's the forecast for tuesday itself. in scotland and parts of northern ireland, it's a bright start with some sunshine in the afternoon. the rest of the country overcast, at least for the bulk of the day. chances are things will clear up a little bit in, say, the lake district, lancashire, wales in the southwest. but then that's towards the end of the day now, it's sunset soon, so i think the bulk of england and wales, let's call it a cloudy day with a chance of some rain. however, later in the day, on tuesday, towards the evening hours, skies will clear, the winds will fall light, and we've got a frost on the way. so still that nip in the air first thing in the morning on wednesday, with temperatures perhaps as low as minus five in scotland and close to freezing if not below in the south. and the morning on wednesday will be very cold across many parts of the country, especially further east. could be some lingering fog, could feel quite raw during the day. so quite disappointing temperatures, again. four degrees, even could be optimistic in some spots, could be close to freezing. but out towards the west, we've got that warmth here, that mild air sweeping in, weather fronts coming in, bringing the outbreaks of rain. and that change really is under way towards the end of the week with a low pressure and westerly winds. now, this is the temperature anomaly map, so warmer than average or colder than average. and actually, you can see towards the end of the week and into the weekend, we've got these warmer colours indicating temperatures actually into double figures for some of us. so let's have a look at the outlook, then. midweek onwards, you can see a fair amount of cloud and some outbreaks of rain, but a steady rise in the temperature as we lose the easterly winds and transition to westerlies. that's it for me. bye bye. live from washington, this is bbc news. the israeli army pushes into all areas of gaza as the
