0:00:11 > 0:00:13Hi, I'm Hayley with your Newsround update. Coming up:

0:00:13 > 0:00:14England head home from the World Cup

0:00:14 > 0:00:16after a goalless draw against Costa Rica.

0:00:16 > 0:00:18The rare birds that could be making a comeback.

0:00:18 > 0:00:23And the boy sneaking a cheeky selfie with the Queen.

0:00:25 > 0:00:28The first American troops have arrived in Iraq to help the

0:00:28 > 0:00:33country's army in the fight against Sunni Islamist militants, ISIS.

0:00:33 > 0:00:36Nearly half of the 300 special operations soldiers promised by

0:00:36 > 0:00:39President Obama are in the capital, Baghdad, or on the front lines, with

0:00:39 > 0:00:42the rest expected within days. The American government says they are

0:00:42 > 0:00:45not there to get directly involved with the fighting but will offer

0:00:45 > 0:00:51advice and are setting up a joint command centre in Baghdad.

0:00:51 > 0:00:55A massive court case into whether staff at the News of the World paper

0:00:55 > 0:01:00were guilty of phone hacking which started in 2011 ended yesterday with

0:01:00 > 0:01:04the paper's old editor Andy Coulson being found guilty. Here's Jenny.

0:01:05 > 0:01:09It all started at the News of the World. Reporters at the newspaper

0:01:09 > 0:01:13were accused of listening in to people's phone messages to get

0:01:13 > 0:01:16exclusive stories. They targeted celebrities, the Royal family, and

0:01:16 > 0:01:19even ordinary people, including the parents of missing schoolgirl, Milly

0:01:19 > 0:01:23Dowler, who were desperately trying to find their daughter. Hacking

0:01:23 > 0:01:26forums is against the law and after several accusations were made, the

0:01:26 > 0:01:32paper was shut down. Bosses and reporters from the News of the World

0:01:32 > 0:01:36were then put on trial to find out who knew what was going on.

0:01:36 > 0:01:39Yesterday, Andy Coulson, who was the editor of the newspaper when some of

0:01:39 > 0:01:45the hacking took place, was found guilty of conspiring to hack phones.

0:01:45 > 0:01:50Mr Coulson also used to work as the press spokesman for the Prime

0:01:50 > 0:01:53Minister, David Cameron. He was criticised for hiring him at the

0:01:53 > 0:01:56time and yesterday apologised.

0:01:56 > 0:02:00I was always clear that I was giving someone a second chance. He had

0:02:00 > 0:02:04resigned from the News of the World because of what happened there, the

0:02:04 > 0:02:06bad things that had happened there. I accepted his assurances,

0:02:06 > 0:02:10I gave him a job. It was a second chance. It turns out to be a bad

0:02:10 > 0:02:13decision and I am extremely sorry about that.

0:02:13 > 0:02:18Andy Coulson's boss at the company that the newspaper, Rebekah Brooks,

0:02:18 > 0:02:21was also on trial. But she was cleared of all the charges on

0:02:21 > 0:02:24Tuesday, along with four other people, after the paper was closed

0:02:24 > 0:02:27down. The government launched a big enquiry to decide whether newspapers

0:02:27 > 0:02:29needed new rules and should be monitored more closely. Some

0:02:29 > 0:02:31newspapers said that was too much interference. But celebrities

0:02:31 > 0:02:33affected say more needs to be done to make sure

0:02:33 > 0:02:42nothing like this ever happens again.

0:02:45 > 0:02:47FIFA, the company in charge of world football, is investigating Luis

0:02:47 > 0:02:52Suarez after he was accused of biting an Italian player during a

0:02:52 > 0:02:56World Cup game yesterday. This is the moment Suarez clashed with

0:02:56 > 0:03:01Italian defender Giorgio Chiellini. The referee didn't take any action

0:03:01 > 0:03:04at the time. Suarez has been banned twice before for biting, while

0:03:04 > 0:03:07playing for Ajax and his current club Liverpool, and if the

0:03:07 > 0:03:10accusations are true, he could be banned for two years.

0:03:10 > 0:03:13England's World Cup journey ended last night with a draw against Costa

0:03:13 > 0:03:16Rica. Manager Roy Hodgson had mixed things up, making nine changes to

0:03:16 > 0:03:19his squad, but it wasn't enough to win - there wasn't a single goal,

0:03:19 > 0:03:27and England ducked out of the World Cup with a 0-0 draw.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30It's day three of Wimbledon and BBC tennis correspondent Russell Fuller

0:03:30 > 0:03:33has been busy doing his homework - we've put together his top tips for

0:03:33 > 0:03:35who he thinks might win the competition this year.

0:03:35 > 0:03:37Hello, Newsround. I'm Russell Fuller, BBC tennis correspondent.

0:03:37 > 0:03:42Here is who I think might just win Wimbledon this year...

0:03:46 > 0:03:49Why shouldn't Andy Murray win the men's singles title again? He will

0:03:49 > 0:03:53never be under as much pressure as he was 12 months ago, becoming the

0:03:53 > 0:03:56first British man to win the singles at Wimbledon for 77 years. And there

0:03:56 > 0:03:59have been signs of the last few weeks, after his back surgery in

0:03:59 > 0:04:04September, that he is starting to return to his best form.

0:04:05 > 0:04:09Rafa Nadal is the other man I tip to go well at Wimbledon. Last year, in

0:04:09 > 0:04:12one of the biggest upset in modern tennis history, he lost in the very

0:04:12 > 0:04:15first round to a Belgian player called Steve Darcis. Nadal struggles

0:04:15 > 0:04:18with his knees. And a lower bouncing ball on the grass means that those

0:04:18 > 0:04:21knees are put under great strain. If he can conquer that,

0:04:21 > 0:04:26he's a champion never to be underestimated.

0:04:31 > 0:04:35Serena Williams has to start as the favourite for the women's singles,

0:04:35 > 0:04:38or the ladies' singles, as they like to call it at Wimbledon. She has

0:04:38 > 0:04:41been the finest female player of the 21st-century, but has not want

0:04:41 > 0:04:44either of the two big events, the grandslam events in Australia and

0:04:44 > 0:04:51France, so far this year. So just maybe, it is her turn.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54If you are looking for one of the younger players to come through,

0:04:54 > 0:04:57then the best of the bunch is Eugenie Bouchard. She's just 20,

0:04:57 > 0:05:00she's from Canada, and she has reached the semifinals of both the

0:05:00 > 0:05:03Australian Open and French Open this year. And worryingly, for the rest

0:05:03 > 0:05:08of the field, she says grass is her favourite surface.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11And to find out all about Wimbledon, including how the scoring works,

0:05:11 > 0:05:16head over to the Newsround website for our guide to the tournament.

0:05:18 > 0:05:22One of the world's rarest birds could be rearing its head again as a

0:05:22 > 0:05:24hand-reared spoon-billed sandpiper has survived travelling five

0:05:24 > 0:05:27thousand miles from Russia to Asia and back. It's thought there are

0:05:27 > 0:05:31less than 100 left in the wild. Experts had to wait two years to see

0:05:31 > 0:05:34if she would make it back from her travels and it's hoped that they

0:05:34 > 0:05:40will start breeding soon.

0:05:40 > 0:05:43The Queen's face is on money, stamps, and plenty of royal

0:05:43 > 0:05:46portraits - but it's not every day she features in a selfie. Her

0:05:46 > 0:05:49Majesty was on a tour of a market in Belfast, Northern Ireland, when an

0:05:49 > 0:05:51enthusiastic boy leant in to take a royal selfie.

0:05:51 > 0:05:56Smartphone? More like smart-throne!

0:05:56 > 0:06:01That's all from me, Newsround's back at 4:20pm. Bye!
