Good morning guys, Jenny here with all the top

:00:10.:00:12.

First up, Wales will be smiling, after a win in their World Cup

:00:13.:00:16.

A goal from 17-year-old, Ben Woodburn on his first

:00:17.:00:22.

match for his country gave Wales a crucial 1-0 victory.

:00:23.:00:27.

It means Wales are four points off the top of their group.

:00:28.:00:30.

Only the top team qualifies automatically for

:00:31.:00:32.

Next up, tomorrow the the Queen will officially open the brand new,

:00:33.:00:38.

Yesterday some ticket holders got the chance to walk over it,

:00:39.:00:42.

The Queensferry Crossing - that's the brand-new 2.7 kilometre

:00:43.:00:53.

bridge over the River Forth in Scotland, linking

:00:54.:00:55.

The Queensferry Crossing stands a massive 207

:00:56.:01:02.

That's as high as 48 double decker buses stacked on top of each other.

:01:03.:01:10.

The steel in the bridge deck weighs 35,000 tonnes.

:01:11.:01:15.

It has special wind shields along each side to protect traffic

:01:16.:01:24.

from wind, so it can stay open even in the stormiest of conditions -

:01:25.:01:27.

much needed on the windy Forth Estuary.

:01:28.:01:30.

The foundation supports are sunk into the mud down to the bedrock.

:01:31.:01:34.

Just one of them is as tall as the Statue of Liberty.

:01:35.:01:39.

And an online ballot was held to give 50,000 people the once

:01:40.:01:43.

in a lifetime chance to walk across the bridge.

:01:44.:01:45.

Nearly five times that number applied.

:01:46.:01:48.

Most are from Scotland and the rest of the UK,

:01:49.:01:51.

but some are from the US, India and one is from Slovakia.

:01:52.:01:54.

The Queen officially opened it on Monday and the day after 10,000

:01:55.:01:58.

local school kids will be able to walk on the bridge too.

:01:59.:02:03.

Then on Thursday next week, the Queensferry crossing

:02:04.:02:05.

TV singing battle, the X Factor, returned to our screens last night.

:02:06.:02:22.

We are back to find the next pop superstar.

:02:23.:02:25.

Sharon Osbourne and Nicole Scherzinger are back

:02:26.:02:27.

This is the first year where the age limit has been lowered to 14,

:02:28.:02:33.

and last night's show saw the audition stages return

:02:34.:02:36.

And we want to hear from you - what did you think of the X-Factor?

:02:37.:02:41.

Perhaps you're a bit bored of it now - do you prefer

:02:42.:02:46.

newer singing shows, like The Voice?

:02:47.:02:47.

Head to Newsround online, and let us know.

:02:48.:02:50.

That's all from the team for now, but Newsround's back
