0:00:12 > 0:00:16Good morning, Jenny here, live with Tuesday's top stories.

0:00:16 > 0:00:19First up, there's just one day to go until the Paralympic Games begin

0:00:19 > 0:00:20in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil.

0:00:20 > 0:00:23But the build-up to the event has been tricky, with a financial crisis

0:00:23 > 0:00:25and lack of ticket sales causing problems for organisers.

0:00:25 > 0:00:32So will Rio be ready? Martin has been finding out.

0:00:34 > 0:00:35London and Beijing were game-changers for

0:00:35 > 0:00:37the Paralympic Games - creating huge interest and bringing

0:00:37 > 0:00:44about a change in views towards disability sport.

0:00:44 > 0:00:46The hope was that Rio's beautiful backdrop would do the same.

0:00:46 > 0:00:49But there are worries that the Brazilian city might not be

0:00:49 > 0:00:54ready for the Paralympics.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57Never before in the 56 year history of the Paralympic Games have

0:00:57 > 0:01:02we faced circumstances like this.

0:01:02 > 0:01:05A lack of money seems to be the cause of most issues.

0:01:05 > 0:01:07Cash meant for the Paralympics was used during the Olympics instead

0:01:07 > 0:01:15to help fix problems such as green diving pools.

0:01:15 > 0:01:17Now the Deodoro Park, which was a big part

0:01:17 > 0:01:19of the Olympics, will be closed to the public because there

0:01:19 > 0:01:24isn't enough money.

0:01:24 > 0:01:27And ten countries might not be able to send their athletes to compete

0:01:27 > 0:01:29because they were sent the money for flights late.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31But one British Paralympian going for gold in Rio believes

0:01:31 > 0:01:33the challenges can be beaten.

0:01:33 > 0:01:39Disabled athletes are used to overcoming barriers.

0:01:39 > 0:01:41We do it daily, so, I think we'll be fine.

0:01:41 > 0:01:49We'll take each day as it comes.

0:01:50 > 0:01:52Organisers have been busy promoting the Paralympics

0:01:52 > 0:01:53to help boost ticket sales.

0:01:53 > 0:01:57A campaign has also been started asking people to donate money to buy

0:01:57 > 0:02:01tickets for children from Brazil.

0:02:01 > 0:02:03Locals in Rio believe the event will be another proud moment

0:02:03 > 0:02:06for the city.

0:02:06 > 0:02:11TRANSLATION: I think the Paralympic Games will make

0:02:11 > 0:02:16the city even happier, and the whole of Brazil as well.

0:02:16 > 0:02:22There are a lot of expectations and I'm looking forward to great show.

0:02:22 > 0:02:25All Rio can do now is hope

0:02:25 > 0:02:27that 11 action-packed days of competition will help people

0:02:27 > 0:02:32forget the city's rocky road to the Paralympics.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36Moving on, the huge forest fire that destroyed large

0:02:36 > 0:02:38areas of southern Spain - near to holiday areas,

0:02:38 > 0:02:41like Benidorm - has been brought under control by emergency services.

0:02:41 > 0:02:44300 firefighters tackled the blaze and more than 1,400 people had to be

0:02:44 > 0:02:50evacuated from their homes.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52The Spanish police think some of the fires might have

0:02:52 > 0:02:56been started on purpose.

0:02:57 > 0:03:00Wales had a brilliant start to their 2018 World Cup

0:03:00 > 0:03:01qualifying campaign, beating Moldova 4-0.

0:03:01 > 0:03:05They led 2-0 at half-time, thanks to goals from

0:03:05 > 0:03:07Sam Vokes and Joe Allen.

0:03:07 > 0:03:09Gareth Bale netted a third, then his last-minute penalty took

0:03:09 > 0:03:13Wales to the top of their group.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15From Wales to England, and Big Sam Allardyce -

0:03:15 > 0:03:18the new England boss - got a win in his first match

0:03:18 > 0:03:20in charge this weekend, but who else applied for his job?

0:03:20 > 0:03:25This might surprise you. Here's Naz.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27The iconic Wembley Stadium, home of English football.

0:03:27 > 0:03:33Where you can watch footballing stars like Wayne Rooney,

0:03:33 > 0:03:39Jordan Henderson and Dele Alli showoff their skills.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43Schoolboys Harlan and Jonathan haven't come here with their

0:03:43 > 0:03:44friends to watch footy.

0:03:44 > 0:03:47They're here because they reckon they're just the kind of managers

0:03:47 > 0:03:49the England team needs.

0:03:49 > 0:03:55Boys, take it up, get to the goal!

0:03:55 > 0:03:57The boys wrote this well-written job application to the people looking

0:03:57 > 0:03:59for a new England manager.

0:03:59 > 0:04:02They told them all the qualities they have for the job and even went

0:04:02 > 0:04:09as far as naming their own backroom staff, their friends, all aged 10.

0:04:10 > 0:04:17But they didn't get the job. This man did - Sam Allardyce.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19Instead, they got a special invite for a behind the scenes

0:04:19 > 0:04:20tour of Wembley.

0:04:20 > 0:04:25Here they are having a sneak peek inside the manager's office.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27What are you doing in here then? Are you after my job?

0:04:27 > 0:04:32What a cool surprise!

0:04:32 > 0:04:35Let's see what question the boys have for the new England manager.

0:04:35 > 0:04:38Do you think you're good enough to bring success to English

0:04:38 > 0:04:41football and why?

0:04:41 > 0:04:45The answer to that is yes, otherwise I wouldn't be sat behind this desk.

0:04:45 > 0:04:47Why? Because I have 25 years of experience.

0:04:47 > 0:04:50What's your favourite formation?

0:04:50 > 0:04:53For me, a system has to be devised on the players that play

0:04:53 > 0:04:56and the system suiting the players. So, I can change my system.

0:04:56 > 0:05:02Basically, the last few years, it's been a 4-3-3.

0:05:02 > 0:05:03Whoa!

0:05:03 > 0:05:08Wait a minute, Sam, I can't believe you just told them all your secrets!

0:05:08 > 0:05:09Right then, get out!

0:05:09 > 0:05:16I have a feeling they'll be back in the future, big Sam...

0:05:16 > 0:05:19The first of J.K Rowling's new Harry Potter short eBooks are out today.

0:05:25 > 0:05:30are meant to be read in about an hour.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33And finally, to a surprising bond that's formed between a dog

0:05:33 > 0:05:36and some orphaned piglets. You'll want to see these pictures.

0:05:36 > 0:05:37After their mother died, these piglets in Cuba

0:05:37 > 0:05:42needed someone to feed them.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Locals took them to a dog, who had recently had puppies,

0:05:44 > 0:05:46to see if she'd nurse them as well.

0:05:46 > 0:05:51She quickly took care of them, as if they were her own pups!

0:05:51 > 0:05:53That's all this morning. Newsround's back at 4:20pm with Ricky.
