Good morning, guys, Ayshah here live with news of the biggest shock

:00:00.:00:00.

Plus - the dog who swallowed a diamond ring.

:00:00.:00:11.

A ban on women wearing veils over their

:00:12.:00:17.

faces in public will continue in France after a court ruled against

:00:18.:00:20.

France has had the law since 2011, which makes it illegal to wear face

:00:21.:00:29.

They're worn by some Muslim women, and one had claimed that

:00:30.:00:34.

the rules stopped her from practicing her religion properly.

:00:35.:00:38.

But the European Court of Human Rights ruled against.

:00:39.:00:41.

And you can find out more about the Niqab

:00:42.:00:47.

and other head coverings on the Newsround website.

:00:48.:00:50.

All this week on Newsround we're looking at aspirations -

:00:51.:00:53.

the goals and dreams we all have for what we might become in the future.

:00:54.:00:56.

Our Newsround survey showed one in five black children feel that

:00:57.:00:59.

their skin colour could have a negative effect when it comes to

:01:00.:01:04.

So I went to discuss this with two talented and successful people who

:01:05.:01:09.

didn't let anything stand in the way of them achieving their ambitions -

:01:10.:01:13.

singer Alesha Dixon and former England footballer Sol Campbell.

:01:14.:01:17.

They say everyone should have the chance to succeed like they did.

:01:18.:01:26.

Alesha Dixon has made her mark, first in music, then as a judge

:01:27.:01:29.

Now you'll probably know her from Britain's Got talent

:01:30.:01:36.

And this is Sol Campbell, the former Tottenham,

:01:37.:01:41.

They're both from black backgrounds, both very well-known,

:01:42.:01:47.

and both say they worked hard to get where they are today.

:01:48.:01:51.

In our Newsround survey, two of the more popular job choices

:01:52.:01:53.

Black boys wanted to be footballers more than any other ethnic group.

:01:54.:02:01.

Sol Campbell says that there are loads of successful black

:02:02.:02:03.

footballers and in football your background doesn't come into it.

:02:04.:02:08.

If you're a black footballer growing up and you're aspiring to play

:02:09.:02:11.

for the first team of your club, the beautiful thing about sport is

:02:12.:02:18.

Alesha Dixon started her career in the music industry before becoming

:02:19.:02:25.

But being well known can have a down side,

:02:26.:02:30.

and Alesha feels she was treated unfairly by some people in the media

:02:31.:02:33.

I think being a woman of colour made me a very easy target.

:02:34.:02:44.

But I knew that staying true to who I am, knowing that I can do

:02:45.:02:48.

Alesha and Sol say things need to change.

:02:49.:02:57.

I want people to be sitting at home, looking at the TV

:02:58.:03:00.

I think it is very important to look at the United Kingdom as

:03:01.:03:08.

multicultural and make sure that across all forms of media that we

:03:09.:03:13.

are all represented. It is not fair. You want to feel like you are part

:03:14.:03:16.

of this country and sometimes people do not feel up. I think a mentality

:03:17.:03:21.

has to change. I think the more we talk about it in a positive way and

:03:22.:03:28.

honest way, I think people will start to slowly see and believe that

:03:29.:03:31.

it will change and it must change. Alesha and Sol say they want

:03:32.:03:37.

children from all backgrounds to feel confident they have role models

:03:38.:03:39.

to look up to and the opportunities Now to the biggest shock of

:03:40.:03:42.

Wimbledon so far - world number one The Spaniard was beaten by wildcard

:03:43.:03:47.

Nick Kyrgios from Australia. He played this, what's been

:03:48.:03:51.

described as "shot of the year," The teenager is ranked just 144th

:03:52.:03:55.

in the world. There were just so many emotions,

:03:56.:04:02.

I didn't know whether to drop to I turned to everyone who's been

:04:03.:04:07.

supporting me my whole life, who have sacrificed so much to get

:04:08.:04:11.

me to where I am now. Argentina will play Belgium

:04:12.:04:16.

in the World Cup quarterfinals after both teams edged through tense

:04:17.:04:18.

games last night. Lionel Messi and friends needed

:04:19.:04:20.

extra time to beat Switzerland 1-0. There they'll face Belgium,

:04:21.:04:24.

whose game against Belgium eventually beating the USA

:04:25.:04:26.

2-1. And finally if your dog likes to

:04:27.:04:34.

swallow up anything and everything, don't expect to get it back any

:04:35.:04:37.

time soon. Not if this mutt
