Morning, Newsrounders.

0:00:030:00:04

It's Sunday, and I'm Ayshah with your first

0:00:040:00:06

Newsround bulletin of the day.

0:00:060:00:08

Coming up:

0:00:080:00:09

Could Scotland be the home UK's first spaceport?

0:00:090:00:11

And England's cricketers battle back with the bat.

0:00:110:00:23

First up, the Church of England is preparing

0:00:230:00:25

for one of their biggest decisions - tomorrow's vote on whether women

0:00:250:00:28

should be allowed to hold the top positions in the church.

0:00:280:00:31

The organisation will decide if women can become bishops.

0:00:310:00:33

A previous attempt to change the rules in 2012 failed,

0:00:330:00:35

but it's hoped this time round there will be enough votes to allow

0:00:350:00:39

the proposal to go through.

0:00:390:00:41

After getting hammered by Germany last week in the semi-finals of

0:00:410:00:44

the World Cup, Brazil had the chance to save some pride last night.

0:00:440:00:47

Did they take it?

0:00:470:00:48

No, they did not.

0:00:480:00:49

The Netherlands beat the hosts 3-0 in the third-place playoff.

0:00:490:00:53

A Robin van Persie penalty got them up and running.

0:00:530:00:56

It now means Brazil have conceded 10 goals in two games!

0:00:560:00:59

Ouch!

0:00:590:01:01

But we all know that's just a warm-up for tonight's main event

0:01:010:01:04

- the World Cup final!

0:01:040:01:05

Germany take on Argentina.

0:01:050:01:07

Germany are favourites, but then again, Argentina have this

0:01:070:01:10

guy - Lionel Messi.

0:01:100:01:12

South American footy expert Tim Vickery has sent us this report

0:01:120:01:15

about Argentina's star man.

0:01:150:01:19

Hi, Newsround.

0:01:200:01:21

A year before Lionel Messi was born, Argentina beat Germany

0:01:210:01:24

in the final in the 1986 World Cup.

0:01:240:01:26

In the next final, when he was three years old, Germany beat Argentina.

0:01:260:01:30

Now Lionel Messi is 27, at the peak of his powers.

0:01:300:01:34

If this is the decider in a best of three, Argentina's best hope is

0:01:340:01:37

that Lionel Messi can find a flash of inspiration

0:01:370:01:40

and decide things in their favour.

0:01:400:01:43

Germany look stronger.

0:01:430:01:45

To all of their traditional virtues, they have

0:01:450:01:47

added more skill and imagination.

0:01:470:01:50

They were more Brazilian than Brazil in Tuesday's unbelievable

0:01:500:01:52

semi-final.

0:01:520:01:53

Argentina have yet to fire on all cylinders.

0:01:530:01:56

But they've had a couple of days to try to get Angel di Maria fit, to

0:01:560:02:00

get Sergio Aguero close to 100%, but their best chance is that in the

0:02:000:02:05

biggest game of his life, Lionel Messi, that little man, can rub the

0:02:050:02:09

magic wand and come up with a moment of magic. If not, Germany

0:02:090:02:13

will be the first European team to win a World Cup in South America.

0:02:130:02:17

No-one saw it coming, but England's cricketers have put themselves

0:02:190:02:22

in a position where they could win the first test match against India.

0:02:220:02:25

This time yesterday, England looked down and out, but a record-breaking

0:02:250:02:28

last stand between James Anderson and Joe Root means England have

0:02:280:02:32

a slight hope of winning.

0:02:320:02:34

We'll keep you up-to-date.

0:02:340:02:37

It's thought the Government could be about to

0:02:370:02:39

reveal plans to base the UK's first ever spaceport in Scotland.

0:02:390:02:43

A top minister has hinted that Scotland is being considered

0:02:430:02:46

as the home for a dedicated port sending missions into space.

0:02:460:02:50

It's hoped the plans will be up and running by 2018.

0:02:500:02:53

It'll be the first spaceport outside the USA.

0:02:530:02:57

That's all from me. Newsround's back just before midday.
