Good morning, I'm Ayshah - you're with Newsround

:00:00.:00:00.

after a weekend of bumper British sporting success.

:00:00.:00:10.

But we've also got the UK's first robot.

:00:11.:00:12.

And record-breaking cow poo slingers - only on Newsround.

:00:13.:00:26.

Britain's Andy Murray is Wimbledon champion once again.

:00:27.:00:31.

He delivered a straight sets win on centre court to take

:00:32.:00:34.

the men's singles title for the second time.

:00:35.:00:36.

His victory over Canadian Milos Raonic was his third

:00:37.:00:38.

And here's what Magic Murray had to say afterwards.

:00:39.:00:48.

I had some great moments here and also some tough losses, and

:00:49.:00:54.

obviously the winds feel extra special because of the tough losses,

:00:55.:00:58.

so I'm proud to have my hands on the Trippi again. -- on the trophy.

:00:59.:01:04.

And the win was part of an incredible Wimbledon Sunday

:01:05.:01:07.

First up was Gordon Reid, who won Wimbledon's first ever

:01:08.:01:10.

Then Jordanne Whiley became the women's wheelchair

:01:11.:01:13.

doubles champion alongside Japan's Yu Kamiji, before

:01:14.:01:15.

Heather Watson finished the day on a high, winning the mixed doubles

:01:16.:01:19.

It's the best Wimbledon for British tennis players since 1934!

:01:20.:01:27.

The team finished third in the medals table

:01:28.:01:32.

at the European Athletics Championships yesterday

:01:33.:01:34.

after picking up seven medals, including two golds from the men's

:01:35.:01:38.

Britain finished with 16 medals, their highest at the Championships

:01:39.:01:43.

And more Brit success - Lewis Hamilton has won

:01:44.:01:53.

the British Grand Prix for the fourth time,

:01:54.:01:55.

He's now just one point behind his Mercedes

:01:56.:01:58.

Lewis spoke right after the race about how hard it was

:01:59.:02:02.

Trying not to make a mistake was difficult for all of us, but that is

:02:03.:02:12.

what I love about this race. It is never just smooth sailing, there are

:02:13.:02:15.

always things that happen through the race that make it spectacular.

:02:16.:02:18.

That is why the British Grand Prix is the best we have.

:02:19.:02:24.

And rounding up a packed Sunday of sporting action was the final of

:02:25.:02:27.

Hosts France took on Portugal, and here's a look at the action.

:02:28.:02:32.

Last night a month of footballing action came to an end and,

:02:33.:02:35.

in this season of surprises, there was one more

:02:36.:02:37.

France, the hosts, had gone into the final

:02:38.:02:41.

And in Antoine Griezeman they had the Euros' top scorer.

:02:42.:02:45.

But on the big night, he couldn't find the goal.

:02:46.:02:49.

Portugal, of course, have their own star player -

:02:50.:02:51.

But for once he wasn't the hero, leaving the match early,

:02:52.:02:56.

and in tears, after picking up an injury.

:02:57.:02:59.

France might have thought they were in luck at this point,

:03:00.:03:02.

but as the match headed into extra time they were denied by the post.

:03:03.:03:06.

Portugal refused to buckle and, out of nothing, a wonder goal

:03:07.:03:08.

France were stunned - and the country that finished third

:03:09.:03:20.

in their group went on to win the tournament

:03:21.:03:23.

And their players enjoyed every moment of a historic win.

:03:24.:03:30.

The UK's first robot is being remade by a museum.

:03:31.:03:33.

He was a bit of a celebrity and travelled the world,

:03:34.:03:38.

Now a project is making a modern-day copy of Eric, who could stand,

:03:39.:03:45.

move his arms and legs, and rotate his head.

:03:46.:03:47.

What we hope to do with Reid completed in time for a major

:03:48.:03:57.

What we hope to do with Reid building Eric is to reverse engineer

:03:58.:04:02.

what was in there. We knew what he did but how he did it internally is

:04:03.:04:07.

still a mystery for us. The hardest bit of building Eric has definitely

:04:08.:04:12.

been doing the skin, the shell. It involves using paper to get the

:04:13.:04:18.

right shape, cutting out the aluminium, bending it around all of

:04:19.:04:23.

the bits. Trial and error but it is coming together. It is not my style

:04:24.:04:30.

of robot, it is going back into the past, there are some things I would

:04:31.:04:34.

like to change and modify but I can't, because it is a replica.

:04:35.:04:37.

Last up this morning, people in this village in Russia

:04:38.:04:40.

have a rather unusual way of celebrating their national day.

:04:41.:04:42.

They hold an annual cow dung-throwing competition!

:04:43.:04:44.

Organisers say the contest is growing every year and 100 people

:04:45.:04:46.

The top distance thrown was 46.5 metres - a new record.

:04:47.:04:55.

That's all for now, Newsround's back in about half an hour.

:04:56.:05:01.
