00:24Hello again, glad you've tuned in.
00:25You've obviously heard there's a football match on tonight.
00:27The biggest football tournament seen in England since 1966.
00:31It was the age of chivalry.
00:34England was a country of castles, cathedrals and small communities
00:38who revered the flag of St George, our patron saint,
00:41and a hero reputed by legends who've taken on a mighty foe.
00:46But beware, because right now that same foe is in the Royal Tunnel here at Wembley,
00:51still very hot and very fond.
00:59There's only one word for the whole world we can fall for now,
01:02the mighty St George.
01:04And here's Gascoigne.
01:06That's unbelievable.
01:07Oh, take a bow for that.
01:10It's all happening for England.
01:12And the charts are suddenly reflecting the mood of football mania
01:15that appears to be sweeping the nation.
01:17I mean, you can see the effect it's had on me.
01:20I've no experience a London stadium like it.
01:22It's taken a game of football to bring the whole nation together.
01:34I think for English football fans, I think this tournament has seen a real change of part.
01:39Given the country something to smile about.
01:41It was a wonderful game.
01:42I much enjoyed it.
01:45Wow, he's fired up for that.
01:48And England go into the semifinals of the European championship.
01:51British politicians must wish they could tap into the crowd-pleasing powers of football more often.
01:57I think politics has got a lot to do for football.
01:59Shearer from the flip-off and a goal in the half-court.
02:03This goes in, equalising.
02:05On the mic.
02:06Goal!
02:07How unlucky can you be?
02:09And that's that.
02:10The final whistle has gone here at Wembley.
02:12You know what that means.
02:14So we go into sudden death penalties.
02:21Gareth Southgate coming forward now.
02:26And the Germans go into the final, and England are out.
02:47Gary?
02:53It's John.
02:55It's okay.
02:56Just one moment, please.
02:59John.
03:01Major, the...
03:05How are you feeling?
03:11Um...
03:19I'm awfully sorry.
03:22The miss.
03:25The Germans go into the final, and England are out.
03:35Had a little trouble with Europe, myself, recently.
03:44It's hard when things don't pan out as one hopes, or expects.
03:50I just...
03:52I...
03:55I feel like I shouldn't have even, um...
04:02I just offered, because I wanted to, um, to lead.
04:07By exo...
04:15my predecessor, you probably remember, or are you too young?
04:21She was toppled.
04:25Leaders.
04:28I only became leader because the other favourites, much louder, more colourful than me, they sort
04:35of wiped each other out.
04:38But there I was.
04:40I was asked to steady the ship.
04:42She saw football as, er...
04:45I think she called it this, a national stain, which I can understand, the thuggery that felt
04:54so a part of it for a while.
04:57And then...
04:59I don't know, this summer, something shifted, when the sun came out.
05:07You know, that's what I'm worried I've ruined.
05:11For everyone.
05:13Saved it!
05:15Oh, my word.
05:25No.
05:27It just ended up not being the answer, that's all.
05:30But there was hope in it.
05:36He was there, watching.
05:40God.
05:41No, Blair.
05:43Oh, that's funny.
05:45Yes, I bet some people think he is.
05:48Maybe he's starting to believe that he is.
05:51My all but certain, er, sub off the bench.
06:02I think we often arrive at a moment and think, this must be our time.
06:08And then things don't pan out and we're left wondering why we're here anymore.
06:14Maybe it's just that our sort of purpose is something else.
06:19Not something we imagined.
06:22Maybe not even something we'd much want.
06:25But there we are.
06:33I think to lead, when leadership is sort of thrust upon us, all we can do, strive to do,
06:40is stand by our values.
06:44Those things that make us who we are.
06:47As the noise gets louder all about us.
06:53Go be with your friends, your family.
06:58Nice to meet you, Gary.
07:20It was a day to shame English football.
07:23Only ten minutes after England kicked off their final with Italy,
07:25ticketless fans stormed the stadium in Wendley.
07:28Chaotic scenes outside Wembley as pre-match celebrations descended into chaos and violence,
07:33fuelled by alcohol and drugs.
07:35Dark underbelly of England and English football that blighted the game for so many years,
07:39returned before a goal had even been scored.
07:42So much for Gareth Southgate's call for national unity ahead of the tournament.
07:47Well, if you didn't know the name Bakayo Saka before last night's match, you do now.
07:53The Euros final has been followed by an onslaught of racial abuse.
07:57Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, and Bakayo Saka all targeted.
08:01This mural of Marcus Rashford defaced.
08:03It does feel like something of a return to the Dark Ages.
08:06Football once again at the center of a wider societal issue.
08:10The decision as to who should be the penalty takers was mine and mine alone.
08:18Any thoughts, opinions and strong feelings about that, which I totally get that there are,
08:23should be directed at me.
08:26The racist attacks and abuse being delivered by a loud minority is unforgivable.
08:33The players who stepped up bravely in a moment of pressure that no England player has ever had to experience
08:39before,
08:39a shootout, in a final,
08:42those players have earned nothing but the admiration that the majority of fans have shown.
08:47Here was three lads who was brilliant all summer and had the courage to step up and take a pen
08:55when the stakes were that high.
08:57If you abuse anyone on social media, you're not an England fan and we don't want you.
09:03Now this is all Southgate's fault.
09:04If we have a different manager, a different approach we would have won.
09:06So I've got two attacks for a hundred and seventy minutes.
09:09Every time you look at the penalty selection, I find myself perplexed.
09:13The Rashford and Sancho coming off, they haven't had a touch.
09:16Why don't you take a pen?
09:16Yeah, I mean, especially since Southgate knows first-hand treatment you get from him.
09:20The entire match has proved that he doesn't have the balls or taxes to have on it.
09:24I mean, it's just basic strategy one-on-one stuff here.
09:26You know, proper Sunday league stuff, should we do better than this?
09:29Go to the World Cup, it's just under a gear.
09:31Next class, it needs to run down to the top.
09:37Pass still works.
09:40Pippa?
09:41I was just...
09:44passing through.
09:46Nearby.
09:48Really?
09:49Sort of.
09:50Ish.
09:52Couple of...
09:53hundred miles.
09:57I thought you might fancy a walk.
09:59Oh.
10:00Like a long one.
10:01Off a short pier.
10:02Well, we'll see how we get on.
10:07Can't stop thinking about them.
10:09Those three lads.
10:13I gave them this thing to live with, didn't I?
10:15The thing I've had to live with.
10:17Yeah, it doesn't feel great.
10:18You also gave them the tools to deal with it.
10:21Better than you had, probably.
10:24No, that's not on me.
10:25That's them.
10:26All them.
10:27I don't know.
10:29If it's this way or that.
10:32Had Marcus's ball been that much more to the right,
10:34we'd have a completely different story.
10:36Everyone's a hero, all the right choices made,
10:38destiny fulfilled, and it'd be over.
10:42Over.
10:45That'll wait.
10:47This damn wait, keeping everyone stuck and unhappy and trapped.
10:55But long-term plan.
10:58It's on track.
10:59Ahead of track, isn't it?
11:01Getting further every time.
11:03Not like before, falling behind.
11:06You decided to try something new, a different way,
11:09of which I and others contributed.
11:12You did, my God.
11:12We all bought in, and it's working.
11:15You've...
11:16You've resurrected England, Gareth.
11:19Come on.
11:21Now tell me why, when everyone else feels it.
11:25What's this great doubt?
11:27Hanging about you like a cloud?
11:32I don't know.
11:33It's okay.
11:34I'm okay.
11:42I just feel a bit of foreboding.
11:46Some unease I can't shake.
11:48And I'm not the best manager in the world.
11:50I know that tactics, strategy, course not.
11:53No, I'm not asking you to contradict me.
11:54What is best?
11:55Best at which bit?
11:58Everyone has strengths and weaknesses.
12:00Look how far you've got them.
12:02This is it now.
12:03Qatar next.
12:04The final act.
12:06This is crunch time.
12:11Why can't we just win?
12:16You have everything you need to be able to win, Gareth.
12:20I'd argue very humbly.
12:22What England needs to learn isn't how to win.
12:25It's how to lose.
12:27Look at the last few days.
12:31Who are we when we lose?
12:33That's how one day you make it possible to win.
12:40Honestly, there are no words to tell you how disappointed I was with the result and my penalty.
12:46Just a young boy of 19 and gave absolutely 100%.
12:50You're fed up of what's going on here in terms of online risks.
12:53It's been playing in my head over and over since I struck the bar.
12:55And there's probably not a word to quite describe how it feels.
12:58And here we are at this mural of Marcus Rashford where the entire community has taken to the streets to
13:03show their support.
13:05Final.
13:0655 years.
13:08One penalty.
13:09History.
13:10All I can say is sorry.
13:12We should back them and support them no matter the outcomes.
13:15I was hurting so much.
13:17Honestly, I felt like I let you all down.
13:19But I can promise you this.
13:20I won't let that moment or any of the negativity I've received this week break me.
13:26Racism has no place and anyone who has these thoughts is not welcome here to tackle Harry Kane.
13:32We don't want you.
13:33I am proud of this England team.
13:35I don't want any child or adult to have to receive the hateful and hurtful messages that me, Marcus and
13:42Jayden have received this week.
13:44I can take critique of my performance all day long, but I will never apologise for who I am.
13:48So to the majority of people coming together to call out the people sending these messages, we will win.
13:56The players on the pitch that day, in particular the black players, are all still very much heroes.
14:01They're all still kings.
14:02Love always wins.
14:04I'm Marcus Rashford.
14:0623-year-old black man from Wivington and Wivenshaw.
14:09If I have nothing else, I have that.
14:23Ironies, Gareth.
14:24I thought I was on brand.
14:26Our values, your values, sticking up for the players.
14:29Just the wrong language, that's all.
14:32I thought they used colours.
14:37No.
14:37See?
14:38Still getting it wrong.
14:39People of colour.
14:40Not.
14:40Right.
14:41Right.
14:42God.
14:45In front of a parliamentary committee for all the world to see.
14:50When do we all become politicians, eh?
14:52Even in sport.
14:55I suppose some of that I should thank you for.
14:59Suppose it's inevitable, really.
15:02Speak for long enough in the modern world, you'll say the wrong thing eventually.
15:09Anyway, I don't want all the...
15:12The...
15:12What do you always call it?
15:14The noise.
15:15To harm you.
15:20Because believe it or not, I do care about all this, you know.
15:26Dinosaur though I may be.
15:31I'll see you around, Gareth.
15:42I deeply, deeply regret using an outdated and offensive term when referring to our black and ethnic minority players.
15:54I am proud of the way this organisation, under my leadership, alongside Gareth Southgate, has strove to be more inclusive
16:03to all fans.
16:04An hour ago, Boris Johnson resigned as leader of the Conservative Party and will step down as Prime Minister.
16:09And I want you to know how sad I am to be giving up the best job in the world.
16:13That lent the brakes.
16:15In the last half an hour, Liz Truss has been formally appointed as the country's new Prime Minister.
16:20I have just accepted Her Majesty the Queen's kind invitation to form a new government.
16:26We will transform Britain into an aspiration nation.
16:29I'm ready to make the hard choices.
16:32You can trust me to do what it takes.
16:40Do we have to have it in the room of us?
16:42Well, it's a motivator reminder.
16:44Yeah, well, I liked it reminding me we had a couple of practice goes.
16:48Now it's just yelling at me that time's almost up.
16:50Time is almost up.
16:52This is it.
16:53This is the big one, isn't it?
16:55This was always the one.
16:57According to the master plan.
17:00The one we aim to win.
17:02That's right.
17:03This is the one.
17:04Yeah, yeah.
17:05So the challenges are the players have less time to reset and repair.
17:10Because of the Covid delay, it's only a year and a bit gap, not two.
17:13Christmas World Cup.
17:15Can't get me head around it, it's mad.
17:17Okay, well, those are the cards we've been dealt, right?
17:20Also, Qatar.
17:21I mean, not to state the obvious, but it really is quite hot.
17:24I've been here on holiday.
17:25Well, next door.
17:28Dubai.
17:29Sort of next door, innit?
17:31Next door but one.
17:32Okay, listen.
17:33We have to turn those things into our advantage, all right?
17:36Psychologically.
17:37As in, less time means we keep momentum, all right?
17:40We nearly got there, guys, yeah?
17:43We nearly touched it.
17:44So come on, act three now.
17:46Fucking yes.
17:47We bring it home.
17:48Yes.
17:52Here we go then.
17:53This is what it's all been building towards.
17:55Not just over the last month, but over the last years, the last decade.
17:59Can England stretch out their hands and seize it?
18:13No more years of hurt.
18:16No more needs for dreaming.
18:19Because dreams have become reality.
18:22At Wembley.
18:23At Wembley.
18:24At Wembley.
18:47At Wembley.
18:50It's coming home.
18:51Now it's down to the rest of us to make sure it stays there.
18:54You think it's all over?
18:55It's only just begun.
19:00It's coming home.
19:02It's coming.
19:04Football's coming home.
19:06Yeah, thanks.
19:07Present tense.
19:07Now.
19:09Serena.
19:10Gareth.
19:11I'm over the moon.
19:12Oh.
19:12What a history.
19:14Wow.
19:15Well done.
19:16Yeah, thanks.
19:17Just wow.
19:20I'm heading up quickly for the celebrations.
19:23You too?
19:23Yeah, I thought I'd, if that's okay, not to crash.
19:27Yeah.
19:30Do you want to hold it?
19:33That's okay.
19:34It's yours.
19:35It's only a replica.
19:37Oh.
19:38Well.
19:39In that case.
19:40They take the real one back somewhere.
19:42It's the only reason I've been trusted with this one.
19:45Yeah.
19:46Not even real.
19:47Piece of crap.
19:48No.
19:48Oh.
19:49I'm so sorry.
19:51It's fine.
19:52You're fine.
19:58How do you think you, what you put it down to?
20:01Can I ask?
20:03Put it down to?
20:04Yeah.
20:07How did you win?
20:10We had the best team.
20:13Yeah.
20:19Door closing.
20:32The men, they have to fight with the expectations so high.
20:37The women struggle just as much with the lows.
20:40No one expecting anything from them.
20:44Two different crosses to bear.
20:46They've played with such joy, so fearless.
20:50Congratulations, Serena.
20:53Your clock is still ticking, Gareth.
20:56It's our next.
20:57All okay?
20:59Yes.
21:00New camp round the corner.
21:02Yep.
21:02Floor.
21:04Floor.
21:05Door.
21:06Opening.
21:27Mark.
21:28Hello.
21:29Mark Bullingham.
21:29Hi.
21:30Steve.
21:30Pleasure to meet you, Mark.
21:32Please do.
21:33Please.
21:34All of you.
21:36And, er, congrats on the appointment.
21:40Oh, thanks, Gareth.
21:42Yeah.
21:42Most, most kind.
21:44Tricky time, too.
21:46Post-Greg.
21:47He was quite, er, wouldn't he?
21:52He was.
21:53Yeah.
21:55So, we thought we'd...
21:58Emily?
21:59Er, yes.
22:00In this climate, we just want to keep flagging the noise around Qatar.
22:04I don't think we can pretend that you won't face a constant barrage of questions about everything except a back
22:09four over a back B, Gareth.
22:11You know, geopolitics, human rights, gay rights.
22:15Yeah, except he's not the Archbishop of Canterbury. He's, er, England manager.
22:19And, no, but it's like in your letter, Gareth.
22:24You said it yourself, and I'm right behind you in saying it.
22:28It's more than football.
22:30And it should be.
22:32And I believe that this is all not in addition to your improving results, but a key factor in your
22:40results.
22:41In the team, the culture, the confidence you're building.
22:46No, of course, but it has all created a sort of expectation, I suppose.
22:50Even a vacuum to fill given the high turnover elsewhere in public life.
22:54Well, sure, you're pretty much the only figure staying the course right now, Gareth.
22:59I just, erm, forgive me.
23:03It's too much, you know, to speak about, to represent all this, everything.
23:10You need help.
23:14This is, okay, probably a crap idea.
23:17But I remember hearing that prime ministers, they get given like this tape.
23:21Well, not tape anymore, obviously.
23:22Of things in the culture, the world, that he or she is expected to know.
23:28Like, what's trending on TikTok.
23:30You know, who's shagging who in EastEnders.
23:31Okay, well, maybe less that, but...
23:34No, but we could compile an equivalent.
23:36You know, of news, controversies, cultural stuff.
23:39Just to get ahead.
23:50Whatever helps the game.
23:52We are live in Ukraine, a country of war.
23:56After a few Russian military investments...
23:57He has now completed his deal to buy Twitter,
23:59and he's changed his own Twitter title to Chief Twit.
24:02Seb Blatter has admitted the decision to award the World Cup to Qatar
24:05when he was FIFA president was a mistake.
24:07What are they saying?
24:07What are they saying?
24:08Back on British soil.
24:10Rebecca Bardi has lost that High Court liable case.
24:12Virginia Jewelry has found that...
24:14Mr. Ruto failed the election.
24:15Concerns persist over the treatment of...
24:17They're also widely shared claims that thousands of workers died building this World Cup.
24:21England go into the draw among the favourites,
24:24having vowed to shine a light on discrimination in Qatar,
24:27where homosexuality is also illegal.
24:29Not the victims of the ship, but the force.
24:31What do you think of the war?
24:32This is the war!
24:33This is the war!
24:34This is the war!
24:36Good afternoon, everybody.
24:37The World Cup is only four months away,
24:39and this European Nations League game is a crucial part
24:42in Gareth Southgate's preparations for Qatar.
24:45While the England fans here in Wolverhampton
24:48are doing what they can to lift the team.
24:52And it's Hungary who strike first.
24:55Roland Shalloy.
24:57England just cannot find a way through.
25:01And England trailed by two now.
25:04They have half a football match to pick themselves out of big trouble.
25:09England are destined for the very bottom of the Nations League table.
25:21And Hungary threatened again.
25:23And it's bounced out here for Sultan Naas.
25:26And he scores!
25:27It is quite a moment for Hungary.
25:29But those are really ideas of England and Gareth Southgate.
25:37And the ball is sifting forward for Goshdorf.
25:40Who vinks it over Aaron Laksdale.
25:43And Cotterie have fought.
25:45And England and Gareth Southgate are suffering this big time here.
25:50They're putting Geoff,
25:52tight Jake!
25:53They're ready,
25:54немного be scared!
25:58And qualc maximum!
26:03United ones who win!
26:124-0 for Hungary and Bolem Ris
26:15It is a desired end to the season for Gareth Southgate.
26:22Sucked in the morning!
26:24Sucked in the morning!
26:26Sucked in the morning!
26:29Sucked in the morning!
26:33Hey, we just need to calm down and stick in some sort of content.
26:36It's the nation's bloody league, not the world fucking club.
26:38We're not a full stringer.
26:39Gareth, what they don't understand is, you stay around long enough,
26:42there'll be a massive, thumping fucking loss at some point down the track.
26:45Exactly. It's, uh, what's-her-name most? Statistical certainty.
26:484-0 loss, though, guys.
26:49Like that. Isn't that maybe our biggest ever at home?
26:53No, no, bollocks.
26:54I think it might be, yes.
27:00Oh. Uh, OK.
27:02Just, look, ignore the fans.
27:04Yeah, I'd rather not, as a rule.
27:05I'm just saying, the fickle...
27:08..swings and roundabouts, ups and downs.
27:11Yeah, what if this isn't?
27:13What if this is, like, the start of a trend?
27:17Don't be silly.
27:18Guys, once you lose the fans...
27:20No, no, no, you haven't.
27:22Won't.
27:27You know?
27:29Right, OK.
27:32Gareth.
27:35Got it, mate.
27:41He's gonna get fried alive.
28:07Gareth, are you embarrassed by that?
28:12Well, it's a chastening night.
28:14We've not lost many football matches,
28:16and when you lose at home especially,
28:19and so heavily with England,
28:21that's always going to be very, very painful.
28:24My predecessors have had a night like this,
28:26and I've watched from the sofa as a kid,
28:29and I recognise those difficult times.
28:32But, um...
28:34..you can't just, you know,
28:35be at the front when things are going well
28:37and not stand up when you've had difficult experiences.
28:41That's, um...
28:42That's part of football, that's part of life.
28:45Gareth, you've had a really close relationship
28:47with the supporters.
28:48Tonight, those England fans were singing directly at you,
28:52and you don't know what you're doing.
28:54How much did that hurt you?
29:02Well, it's not pleasant.
29:04I totally understand the response.
29:07I can't dress up what happened.
29:11You're never going to have the six years like we've had
29:13with a new narrative and not have nights like tonight.
29:15Football's emotional, people pay to come and watch.
29:20They'll give you an opinion when you don't deliver.
29:22As I said earlier,
29:24I saw all the previous England managers go through this.
29:29And, um...
29:31..I won't outstay my welcome.
29:44It's part of my employment to be criticised,
29:47and I think, as the national team manager,
29:49every move of England's performance
29:52is going to be analysed,
29:54and so I'm in the limelight more often than not.
29:56How we treat England managers in our country
29:59is absolutely disgraceful.
30:02It's a big job.
30:03One of the biggest jobs you can have in football.
30:07You see, at the end of the day, I get the sack now.
30:09What sort of treatment is that of people?
30:12We actually destroy fellow human beings.
30:14It seems that this job is becoming impossible.
30:17The truth is that, you know,
30:18Kevin Keegan's just a little bit short for this job.
30:20No truth whatsoever in all the speculation.
30:24Garbage.
30:24Well, everybody is human, aren't they?
30:26And you try to ignore it,
30:28and you try to not let it upset you,
30:30and I think I try very hard about that.
30:32Wait!
30:34Wait!
30:35And gentlemen, if you want to write whatever you want to write,
30:38you can write it, because that's all I'm going to say.
30:46The unanimous recommendation was submitted to the Executive Committee
30:49that Sir Alf Ramsey should be replaced
30:51as the England team manager.
30:53Oh, perhaps it's just as well.
30:54I should live longer anyway, won't I?
30:58The big problem with England is Southgate is what he is.
31:01He's a middle-ranking coach.
31:03Big questions for the England manager, then.
31:06Is he a winner or one of sport's natural losers?
31:09His substitutions were the most frustrating.
31:12He got us to a semi-final.
31:13He got us to a final.
31:15Things have improved.
31:15He definitely improved us.
31:17I just think we need to give him another chance.
31:19He knows that you're judged in major tournaments.
31:21Gareth knows he has to do the next step.
31:25The next step is going on to win a tournament.
31:28He has to win the World Cup.
31:31We're moving forward.
31:33He's the right man.
31:34Yeah, yeah.
31:34The question is, Dan, is he the right man to get you to the press of this,
31:37or is he the right man to get you to win something?
31:41Two.
31:43Three.
31:44Four.
31:46Five.
31:47Six.
31:48Seven.
31:49Good work.
31:50Eight.
31:51Nine.
31:52Ten.
31:53Top work.
31:54One on there.
31:55Careful, that one.
31:56Nice to move his hands around.
31:57Little hands, do that one.
31:59Little hands, do that one.
32:00Little hands, do that one.
32:06Seem okay, you know.
32:08Better than that was.
32:11Fucking hell.
32:13Like joining an exclusive club in a way, ain't it?
32:16The missus.
32:20Think he's okay?
32:22A gaffer?
32:24Yeah.
32:25Always okay.
32:27Tough as nails.
32:30He's the one always making sure we're all right.
32:33That's what I mean.
32:37No way.
32:38Oi.
32:38Lads, look.
32:39We have some very important news.
32:42Buckingham Palace has just announced that Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has died.
32:48We are all devastated by the news that we have just heard from Balmoral.
32:53Saw her boy.
33:06Hope you're also looked at her.
33:11We care.
33:11How did you look at the house?
33:11We do, you know, do that.
33:15At the house we are all right.
33:16I have all right.
33:16This is the house we're all right.
33:16We're all right.
33:18We're all right.
33:18You're right.
33:19We need to see.
34:23Is your mum in?
34:24Is she going to let you come out to play?
34:30I was thinking more like around the golf spot.
34:34Yeah.
34:35But this is less stressful.
34:44It's good if you check in, Harry.
34:46But that's not your responsibility, OK?
34:49Isn't it, though?
34:51I was captain.
34:55Why did you make me captain all them, like, years ago?
34:58Why, oh, come on, Harry.
34:59You're proving yourself.
35:01At Qatar, there's every chance you'll break Rooney's record.
35:04Top England goal scorer of all time.
35:06That's what I'm hoping.
35:07Yeah, yeah, I know of a captain.
35:11Being the England captain, man.
35:14It's a bit like being the queen.
35:17Isn't it?
35:21It's about more than just, like, it's about who you are as a person and what you, like, like, what
35:31she represented.
35:35You know?
35:40I was watching her during her funeral.
35:47She weren't meant to be picked.
35:50Was she?
35:51I mean, that wasn't her plan.
35:54You know, it was just because of things happening and then she was suddenly there.
35:59Yeah, no, but she did her duty, made it her own and, but she never wavered, never changed her way
36:10of doing it.
36:16What you said about not staying, you're welcome.
36:24Well, me contract ends after Qatar.
36:27Act three, so I imagine that process of shortlisting the next meet has already started.
36:33You didn't mean, like, going like before that, did you?
36:43Ignore them.
36:45Boss.
36:48We all want you to stay.
36:55The reason why it gets under your skin, the things people say, why it, I hate this word, triggers you
37:02is,
37:05it's because they always sort of identify your weakness.
37:10That doubt you have about yourself, like, with Sven, you know, Continental, so must be sleazy, sex-obsessed.
37:19Wasn't he, though?
37:22I think it was a bit, yeah.
37:26Me, soft, weak.
37:31Not, not like, a proper, I don't know.
37:38They want me to get tough on you all, like laying down the law if you're not performing.
37:44Crash into the dressing room, throw things at you, humiliate you, raise hell.
37:51Or, you double down.
37:56I don't know, you, you become, more, you.
38:04Right, the most you, that you can.
38:08And we all do that.
38:11We become the team, and we become the manager.
38:15But don't let them break us.
38:17They can't make us bend.
38:20And where you believe in yourself.
38:23Like we do.
38:35You know, look, I've been wearing the rainbow laces with pride for ages now, and I intend to keep on
38:41wearing them.
38:41And we'll be, uh, I think it's seven other countries, including us, will be wearing the one love armband, even
38:47though they've asked us not to.
38:48We're going to stick to that.
38:49Because, you know, football's for everyone.
38:52We're going to keep all those seats.
38:53Hey, right.
38:54Okay, everyone.
38:55Seats, please.
38:56Let's go, let's go.
39:02Okay, welcome, everybody.
39:03Please get seated.
39:05Make sure you can see the camera.
39:10Three, two, one.
39:16It's the most controversial World Cup in history, and a ball hasn't even been kicked.
39:22Qatar's had 12 years to prepare for this day and spent almost 200 billion pounds to get here.
39:30Ever since FIFA chose Qatar back in 2010, the smallest nation to have hosted football's greatest competition has faced some
39:37big questions.
39:39From accusations of corruption in the bidding process to the treatment of migrant workers who built the stadiums, where many
39:46lost their lives.
39:47There was zero consideration.
39:50Homosexuality is illegal here.
39:51Women's rights and freedom of expression are in the spotlight.
39:54We welcome everybody, but also we expect and we want people to respect our culture.
40:00Some of the teams are making a stand.
40:02Harry Kane and Gareth Bale will wear a one love captain's armband.
40:06Well, I think it's absolutely right that the England and Welsh teams are wearing a rainbow armband and making a
40:12clear statement that football is for everyone.
40:15And no matter who you are, you should be able to support your team with pride.
40:18Against that backdrop, there's a tournament to be played, one that will be watched and enjoyed around the world.
40:25Everything is ready and everyone is welcome.
40:48Amy.
40:50Hi, Gareth.
40:51Have the players come to a collective decision about what you would do or say if members of the LGBTQ
40:57community are victimized in any way during this tournament?
41:03We stand for inclusivity and we're very strong on that.
41:06We understand the challenges this tournament presents with that.
41:10It's horrible to think that some of our fans feel they can't come because they're worried about their safety.
41:15But if it wasn't for the strength of that community, we wouldn't be women's champions.
41:28Mr. Southgate, Mr. Bullingham, we are sorry for this intervention so close to your first game.
41:34Ten minutes before we have to leave.
41:36We are. How do you say?
41:39Slightly chasing the story as it unfolds.
41:42Right. This is about the One Love armbands. The players have decided they want to win.
41:48The hosts have strongly objected to this and they are our hosts.
41:53We respect that but...
41:54No such political symbols have ever been worn at a World Cup before. Ever.
41:58It's not as if you're being asked to not do something that's always done.
42:03It is never done. Certainly the fans don't want it. It divides us all into groups when we just want
42:10to watch and enjoy.
42:11It's a very quiet, dignified statement. And we will pay the fine.
42:19It will no longer just be a fine, I'm afraid. Any player who wears a band will be given a
42:26yellow card at the first whistle.
42:28And then, this is a rolling thing, we cannot be sure, but we think if the band remains, another card.
42:38Off the pitch. Possibly a band for the whole tournament.
42:45They're bluffing.
42:47We could test that. Or we can all just enjoy the football.
42:55Eight minutes.
42:58Sorry.
43:00One private word.
43:02It's not Gareth's job to...
43:04It's okay, Mark.
43:14I'm sorry. These are not my own feelings but...
43:19We're here.
43:22And you must feel the same.
43:24Hmm?
43:25The moralizing and the insulting of people and cultures different from our own.
43:31The same what?
43:32Islam is not compatible with a tournament like this.
43:35Are you saying that?
43:37Of course not.
43:39No.
43:39No.
43:39Like English Crusaders.
43:43Like a Saint George.
43:44Into the deserts of the Middle East to spread your values over theirs.
43:48That's not my comparison.
43:51But you have to admit it is apt.
43:56But Harry Kane is adamant. He will wear that band, sir.
44:03Then you may have a World Cup without your captain.
44:06And he will have made his great gesture and can contemplate that on the plane home.
44:14I should do it anyway.
44:16Well, it doesn't matter if no other countries are.
44:20Isn't that...
44:20That's what leading is.
44:23Isn't it?
44:24Being the only one.
44:27You're a great leader, Harry.
44:29But you can't be that leader if you exit the field.
44:32You can't stand for something in the shadows.
44:35You have to be in the light.
44:38Wasn't fair to place all this on your shoulders.
44:40But the powers that be, they've taken it out of your hands.
44:43There. Done.
44:46I'm sorry.
44:49Come on.
45:01You do know it's not a bank holiday, don't you?
45:03But we're chuffed to have you with us for England's opening number.
45:08I've got a good feeling about this game.
45:09Can the boys live up to the pressure of winning this tournament?
45:12It's very good.
45:13And our England's lead.
45:19That's Jack Fielish.
45:20And England have stick.
45:22Obviously, you know, there's been a lot of stick leading up to this tournament.
45:26But the manager in particular, like I said, you know, we're going to be doing our talking on the pitch.
45:32One of the best England performances in a good few years.
45:371950 World Cup win.
45:392002 World Cup.
45:40Ty.
45:41You can't beat us.
45:44Just about enough from England.
45:46And on they go.
45:50England's free kick.
45:52Position A1.
45:54Marcus Rashford.
45:56Superb.
45:59Here's Bill Foden.
46:01England are getting away.
46:03It meant a lot to me this game tonight.
46:05Yeah, and all my family are watching, so this one's for them.
46:08It's moving forward here for Marcus Rashford.
46:12And Marcus Rashford is on the rampage for England.
46:16For me, it's just been about getting my own happiness right.
46:19When I'm happy and enjoying myself, I play my best football.
46:21England now turned their attention to their knockout clash with Senegal.
46:25The victory would set up a blockbuster meeting with world champions France in the quarterfinals.
46:30From now on, there are absolutely no second chances, so England either have to win or they go home.
46:34Good evening, we're outside tonight.
46:36We're so close to the action here.
46:38We can feel the noise.
46:39We can hear the music.
46:40We can sense the snap in the air of a really huge occasion.
46:45Very good job of the front foot here.
46:47Jordan Henderson is with him.
46:50And England are in front.
46:52It's Jordan Henderson with England's opener.
46:55Hopefully we can carry on and keep going a couple more now.
46:57Holding it on half-time.
46:59It's post-ball for Harry Kane.
47:02England 2-0 at the break and well on the way.
47:06We're going to back the front in the next round.
47:09We're going all the way.
47:10We're going all the way.
47:11But Kyle's back up.
47:12That's three.
47:13England have seen off Senegal with confident style.
47:18I'll focus on the front now.
47:20Yeah, it'll be a good bout.
47:40Big game.
47:42We know that.
47:44World champions.
47:48And we can beat them.
47:50You know what to do.
47:52You own this now.
47:54You have a voice.
47:56Harry?
47:58Alright lads, bring it in.
48:01Come on.
48:09We're on a fucking roll.
48:12Right?
48:14This is our time.
48:16Right?
48:18We get through this.
48:19Our path to another final opens up.
48:22This is the moment.
48:24Okay?
48:25It's here and now.
48:27It's what we put these shirts on for.
48:30Okay?
48:31Not to mention, but get two in the back of the net
48:33and while Harry Kane becomes the greatest England goalscorer
48:36of all time!
48:41Cheers lads.
48:46Look.
48:48If this used to be one of those...
48:52You know what Gareth talks about.
48:54Defining memories sort of games that...
49:00Look, we all came back from...
49:05massive, like...
49:06block.
49:07Back at Wembley.
49:10And we got through that.
49:12And now we're here.
49:15What that clock's been counting down for.
49:20And I just...
49:21You know, I'm...
49:25I'm proud of us.
49:27For getting here.
49:31And...
49:34I fucking love you.
49:43Come on England!
49:45Come on England!
49:47Come on England!
49:48Come on England!
49:49England emerging here within one win of a World Cup semi-final, but the reigning world champions stand in their
49:57way.
50:09are...
50:10are greater...
50:25a year....
50:26out...
50:27that way!
50:33Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
50:37Oh! Terrific goal!
50:40The World Champion strike first!
50:45Oh! Shaq has gone over couldn't they here?
50:47And that is an England penalty!
50:51Taker and keeper who know each other inside out.
50:56Maurice waits
51:01He joins Wayne Rooney as England's leading goal scorer of all time
51:06It's Griezmann
51:08It's Olivier Giroud
51:10And with less than a quarter of an hour to play
51:13It's France in front again
51:20Hernandez with a challenge up now
51:22Now what about this one?
51:23It is looking like a penalty
51:25It is a penalty
51:27And so eyeball to eyeball again
51:31These great Tottenham friends pitted each against the other as foes
51:38So often Harry Kane has stepped up for England
51:42And now just one more time
51:44Under the greatest scrutiny in front of the whole planet
51:48No
51:51No
52:00No
52:17logo
52:29I don't know.
52:49I'm sorry.
52:51Don't you dare, Harry.
53:00Pennaway.
53:12I never miss.
53:22But I was put here to win.
53:26For...
53:31Isn't that why I'm here?
53:38But you're here.
53:52I got you, Harry.
53:56It's okay.
53:59I got you.
54:00I got you.
54:02I got you.
54:12I got you.
54:17I got you.
54:19I got you.
54:19I got you.
54:19I got you.
54:19I got you.
54:19I got you.
54:20I got you.
54:21I got you.
54:24I got you.
54:47Knock, knock.
54:49Gareth, come in, come in, hello.
54:53So, um, the past few months, I know, they were tough on everyone.
54:59And, um, here we are.
55:02That's three tournaments in, above your average lifespan for a manager.
55:07Well, so I just wanted to say, though...
55:16What I want to say is that I'm not done.
55:20I'm not done unless you are, but semi-final, final, quarter-final,
55:24not bad from where we started this story, but is that it?
55:27Is that the most England can expect, or is England not done yet?
55:32Can we do more?
55:35I believe we can.
55:37And so I'd like to ask very strongly,
55:41and, you know, in spite of the strong competition elsewhere,
55:47I'd like to ask to stay.
55:51I think in this world,
55:53staying the course is almost the bravest thing
55:55a leader can do right now.
56:01And, um...
56:02Yeah, I want to finish what we started.
56:04And I-I-I humbly believe
56:07that I am the man to do it.
56:12And...
56:16Yeah, even though
56:18everyone else
56:20has their doubts out there
56:22about me,
56:25I back me.
56:28I back myself.
56:38We agree.
56:41And we've been drawing up
56:43this extension to your contract.
56:47We think you better get cracking on
56:49with building a team for Germany.
56:52Germany, Gaz.
