Hello, Ayshah here with the last Newsround update today.

Stay tuned for all of this.

Shock for tennis fans as Djokovic crashes out of Wimbledon.

THEY CHANT IN ICELANDIC

Iceland fans tell us why they think they can go all the way.

This week marks 100 years since the Battle of the Somme,

one of the deadliest events of the First World War.

Martin's been to France to find out more.

I'm here to meet some kids from all over the UK who have

travelled here to France to go on the same journey

the soldiers did 100 years ago.

One of them is Laurie.

I'm trying to learn about my great-great-uncle.

I already know that his name is Joshua Stevens and

he came here to fight.

That's all I know at the moment.

So, Simon, what can you tell us about Laurie's great-great-uncle?

We've been able to find out that Joshua Stevens was one of eight

children, he enlisted in the spring of 1916 into the 8th Battalion

of the Worcestershire Regiment.

He would have headed out to France, where he arrived in time to take

part in the Battle of the Somme.

He would have spent a lot of the winter in very uncomfortable,

unpleasant conditions, experiencing all of the worst

that the weather and the Germans could throw at him.

Laurie, do you think you could handle those conditions?

No, I don't think I could actually.

It sounds horrible.

But like millions of soldiers fighting on the Somme

during the First World War, Laurie's great-great-uncle

didn't make it home.

He died whilst fighting here on the 24th of

April 1917, aged 20.

I'm proud of what my great-great-uncle did.

He was a very brave person.

This huge building behind me is the Thiepval

memorial to the missing.

For the soldiers who died fighting for the British

side during World War I, but were never found.

It's here that Laurie has a special task.

Joshua Stevens is here on one of the panels and I'm

going to show my respect by the placing this cross.

Joshua Stevens is one of more than 72,000 soldiers names carved

into the walls here.

All around the world there are memorials like Thiepval

to ensure that those who died during the war are never forgotten.

Go online for everything you need to know about the

Battle of the Somme, including the story of a 12-year-old boy who ran

off to fight in the war.

It's an incredible watch.

Sport now and the biggest shock of the Wimbledon tournament so far.

World number one Novak Djokovic is out.

He was beaten by American Sam Querrey in four sets.

Even though Djokovic seemed pretty unhappy with his performance,

he still praised his opponent.

Congratulations to Sam.

He played a terrific match.

He serves very well, as he usually does, and I think that

part of his game was brutal today.

He made a lot of free points with the first serve and just

well done, you know.

He overpowered me.

And the women's world number one Serena Williams has

just finished her match against Germany's Annika Beck.

After a close-call match in the previous round she's back

on form winning in straight sets.

It wasn't just the tennis that was exciting yesterday,

Germany knocked out Italy on penalties at the

European Championships.

Here's a quick look at what happened.

It was a tight first half, with neither side having much

of a chance in front of goal.

But in the 65th minute, Mesut Ozil put Germany ahead

with this slick passing move.

But a moment of madness from defender Jerome Boateng,

with a handball in the box, and Italy had the chance

to level, and they did.

The match went into extra time, but with nothing between them,

it went to penalties.

Both sides struggled to handle the pressure.

Until at last, in sudden death, Germany finally clinched it.

They've still never lost a shoot-out since the 1976 final

of this competition, when they lost to Czechoslovakia

40 years ago.

Well, Germany will face either France or Iceland in the semifinals,

with their quarterfinal match kicking off later today.

Iceland, who beat England in the last round,

are the lowest-ranked side in the tournament.

So why have they done so well and how will they do against France?

We've been asking some Icelandic fans.

I think they are doing well, because a lot of Icelanders

are at the stadium rooting for them and I think they get a lot

of support from them.

Why do you think Iceland is doing so well in this tournament?

Because the other sides aren't!

I think that Iceland will definitely win.

THEY SING IN ICELANDIC

I think it will be a tie at 1-1 and there will be a penalty

shoot-out and Iceland will win.

So, you think they will win?

Yes.

I think they will have this much goals.

THEY CHANT IN ICELANDIC

We are going to win 1-0.

You're sure?

Yes.

THEY CHANT IN ICELANDIC

Finally, take a look at one of the newest,

tallest Ferris wheels

in the world.

It's just opened in Japan and is 123 metres tall.

It has 72 pods called gondolas and takes 18 minutes to go round.

It also has a glass bottom for the brave ones

who want to look down.

That's all from me.

Newsround's back in the morning at 7.40am.
