00:54Well, the FIFA under-20 World Cup in Chile gets on the field as Group A leaders Japan claim their
01:00second straight win defeating host Chile 2-0 while New Zealand came from behind to edge Egypt 2-1.
01:06In Group B, leaders Ukraine and Panama played to a one-roll draw while Paraguay and South Korea
01:11battled to a goalless dealmate. With both teams coming off losses, Egypt made a good start against
01:17New Zealand in Group A with Kabaka scoring in the fifth minute.
01:20New Zealand, they're failing to clear and it's a great finish from Kabaka.
01:25But in the 13th minute, Luke Brooks-Smith levelled matters for the boys in black.
01:29Forward by Loke.
01:31Uke to the cross. 1-1. Wonderful goal.
01:35And in the 16th, New Zealand got the winner through Schwen Loke with the final score being
01:402-1.
01:42And should be 2-1 and is Schwen Loke.
01:46In the other Group A match, Japan took the lead against host Chile courtesy of a 55th minute
01:51penalty from Ishiara.
01:52This man inside the stadium, Rion Ishiara.
01:55And in the 82nd, Yokoyama with a superb strike gave the tabletoppers Japan a 2-0 win.
02:01Yokoyama! What a finish! And what an entrance!
02:07Panama met Ukraine in Group B with the Europeans being awarded a penalty early in the match.
02:12And it's a penalty kick. You can see it making the move towards the ball.
02:17Shinchuk was the man to convert it in the sixth minute.
02:19Heartbreak for Panama. Ukraine have taken an early lead.
02:23But the Panamanians were able to level matters in the 36th and make it 1-1 through Gustavo Herrera.

02:57Vinod Nawani, Tf6 Sport.
02:59Well, you may not know, but the ICC Women's World Cup bowled off yesterday with host India defeating Sri Lanka by 59 runs.
03:08Now, the reason that most of you might not know that the World Cup is off and running is because the West Indies failed to qualify.
03:15Despite the 2016 World Cup winners not being there, there's still a West Indian presence.
03:19As that woman to your right, former TNT and West Indies all-rounder, Stacey Ann King, will be part of the star-studded female-led commentary team and panel.
03:28The 42-year-old King will join other noted female commentators such as Mel Jones, Issa Goura, along with former captains Mithali Raj and Sanamir.
03:37Ian Bishop and Carlos Brathwaite are two other familiar West Indian voices who will also be at the World Cup.
03:44This is the first time the West Indies women have failed to qualify for the World Cup in 25 years.
03:52Speaking of the Women's World Cup, Australia would be among those to watch as they showed their depth and strength to open their title defense with a win today.
04:00Australia's decision to bat first against New Zealand seemed a bad one, judging from their poor start.
04:06They were struggling at 128 for 5 at one stage as runs and wickets were at a premium.
04:12But Ashley Gardner provided the power and leadership required down the order.
04:18She blasted a brilliant 115 off 83 balls to vault the Aussie women to a massive total of 326 inside, 50 overs.
04:30And New Zealand would make a horrid start to their run chase, losing the first three wickets with 75 on the board.
04:36But their skipper played a captain's knock as Sophie Devine struck 111 off 112.
04:45What a shot that was.
04:47But when she fell with the New Zealanders, 92 runs away from victory, it folded quickly.
04:54The next three wickets fell for the addition of two runs as they were bundled out for 237.
05:00Australia making a successful start to their title defense with an 89-run victory.
05:10She's out.
05:11Well, if you want it, come and get it.
05:13That's the message to India after winning the Asia Cup cricket recently.
05:17Now, you might remember they failed to collect me a trophy after beating Pakistan in the final.
05:21However, the president of the Asia Cricket Council said they can come and collect it from him.
05:26We're going to present India the prize after beating Pakistan in Sunday's final.
05:33But India refused and chose to celebrate with an imaginary trophy.
05:37The sides played three times during the tournament and India declined post-match handshakes each time.
05:43The contests follow a brief armed conflict between the two nations in May.
05:47On X, Nakbi posted, as ACC president, I was ready to hand over the trophy that very day.
05:55And I'm still ready now.
05:57If they truly want it, they are welcome to come to the ACC office and collect it from me.
06:03Well, anything Alcaraz can do, Sinner, well, seems he can do the same as world number two.
06:09Yannick Sinner claimed his second China Open title the day after world number one, Carlos Alcaraz, won the Japan Open.
06:15It's the first time since 2020 that the world number one and two have both claimed trophies in the same week.
06:23Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal were the last players to do it.
06:26Sinner had a straightforward 6-2, 6-2 victory over American Lerner Tien in the final.
06:32It's the Italians' third title of the year and second at this tournament.
06:37All right, here's the deal.
06:38What will they think of next?
06:40Well, there's no stopping man from defying death or injury, as one day Devil Climber became the first man to scramble his way around a plane in mid-air.
06:50And we're not talking Tom Cruise.
06:51Have a look.
06:53And a professional climber has taken his passion for the sport to new heights, making history by scrambling his way around a plane in mid-air.
07:02Slovenia's Domen Skokvic had gravity and winds of up to 100 kilometers an hour working against him as he completed his climb around the specially modified plane, before he finished it off with a parachute jump.
07:17He's the first climber to successfully complete the stunt.
07:20Is that you, Tom Cruise?
07:28All right, well, you might want to pick up your jaws off the floor after this one.
07:33It's our play of the day.
07:36Juventus and Villarreal played out an entertaining 2-1 draw in the Champions League today.
07:40The Italians trading at the half-storn back to take the lead early in the second, before Villarreal put one back before full-time.
07:48But Juve's equalizer came from an unlikely source.
07:51See there the number four, Gatti, giant up from the back.
07:57It's Kelly who got his head through it first now!
08:00How about that from Federico Gatti?
08:07Center halves don't score goals like that, do they?
08:10Well, he does, and he has.
08:12So, for showing centre-backs can score bicycle kicks too, Federico Gatti pedals his way to tonight's TV6, Play of the Day.
08:22Just in front, and of course he does.
08:23Oh, he got it.
08:24Well, he got it.
08:26Gatti got it.
08:27All right, that's it for Sport for the Team Arms, Jim Sunders.
08:30I'll catch you later.
