Hi, guys, this is your afternoon Newsround. | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
First, there were big delays at London City Airport today | :00:15. | :00:17. | |
after nine people got onto the runway. | :00:18. | :00:20. | |
The group sat down and locked themselves together, | :00:21. | :00:22. | |
stopping any planes being able to land or take off. | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
Black Lives Matter UK say the protest was their idea. | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
Police took away all nine protesters and the airport said flights had | :00:34. | :00:35. | |
Next, there's just one day to go until the Paralympic Games begin | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
But the build-up to the event has been tricky, with money problems | :00:42. | :00:48. | |
and a lack of ticket sales causing difficulties for organisers. | :00:49. | :00:50. | |
London and Beijing were game-changers for | :00:51. | :00:59. | |
the Paralympic Games - creating huge interest and bringing | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
about a change in views towards disability sport. | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
The hope was that Rio's beautiful backdrop would do the same. | :01:07. | :01:12. | |
But there are worries that the Brazilian city might not be | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
Never before in the 56-year history of the Paralympic Games have | :01:16. | :01:22. | |
A lack of money seems to be the cause of most issues. | :01:23. | :01:29. | |
Cash meant for the Paralympics was used during the Olympics instead | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
to help fix problems such as green diving pools. | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
Now the Deodoro Park, which was a big part | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
of the Olympics, will be closed to the public because there | :01:40. | :01:41. | |
And ten countries might not be able to send their athletes to compete | :01:42. | :01:49. | |
because they were sent the money for flights late. | :01:50. | :01:52. | |
But one British Paralympian going for gold in Rio believes | :01:53. | :01:54. | |
Disabled athletes are used to overcoming barriers. | :01:55. | :02:03. | |
We do it daily, so, I think we'll be fine. | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
Organisers have been busy promoting the Paralympics | :02:08. | :02:15. | |
A campaign has also been started asking people to donate money to buy | :02:16. | :02:22. | |
Locals in Rio believe the event will be another proud moment | :02:23. | :02:29. | |
TRANSLATION: I think the Paralympic Games will make | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
the city even happier, and the whole of Brazil as well. | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
There are a lot of expectations and I'm looking forward to great show. | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
that 11 action-packed days of competition will help people | :02:46. | :02:52. | |
forget the city's rocky road to the Paralympics. | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
After a brilliant Euro 2016, Wales have made a great start | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
to their 2018 World Cup qualifying campaign, | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
They led 2-0 at half-time, thanks to goals from Sam Vokes | :03:04. | :03:10. | |
Gareth Bale netted a third, then his last-minute penalty took | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
We took our foot off the gas a little bit in the second half, | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
But we did a professional job and scored four goals | :03:21. | :03:27. | |
And again the contribution from Gareth Bale to score twice? | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
Yes, he took his first goal brilliantly. | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
He does what he always does for Wales. | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
Sticking with sport, and we're massive fans of Serena Williams | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
here at Newsround HQ, and now she's broken | :03:43. | :03:44. | |
She beat Yaroslava Shvedova at the US Open in New York | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
to set a new Grand Slam record of 308 victories. | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
That puts her ahead of Roger Federer in the all-time list of matches won | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
at the world's biggest tennis tournaments. | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
If the summer holidays already seem like a distant memory, | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
then take a look at some of your holiday best bits. | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
You've been busy sending these snaps in to us. | :04:10. | :04:11. | |
Mack, who's 12 years old, had the ride of his life when he went | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
on the Orbit slide in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in London. | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
Eliza and Alice went to Iceland for the summer break and they even | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
You're stuck in an airport in Japan and you get | :04:24. | :04:37. | |
Talk to a rollerskating robot, of course. | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
These cool gadgets will whizz around Tokyo's Haneda Airport, | :04:43. | :04:44. | |
You can even ask the robot for a selfie. | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
It's hoped they'll be up and running by the end of the year. | :04:50. | :05:00. | |
I happen to head there and have a selfie, surely! | :05:01. | :05:02. |
