A third day of football violence in Marseille leaves two England fans

reported seriously hurt with many more injured.

There were running street battles as England and Russian fans clashed

French police responded with tear gas.

And there are reports of more disturbances inside the stadium

Jeremy Corbyn's appeal to stay in the EU, but the Leave campaign

claim "huge numbers" of Labour voters are backing them.

And the Queen's official 90th birthday is marked with pageantry

and a flypast as thousands gather to share the celebrations.

The start of England's Euro 2016 campaign has been marred with

violence. Two England fans are said to be

in a critical condition and many have been injured after a third day

of violent clashes Hours before their teams kicked off

in Euro 2016, England and Russian French police responded with water

cannon and tear gas and made a number of arrests,

as Lucy Williamson reports. They came almost unnoticed,

a handful of rival supporters looking for trouble among

the English fans. It started with some

chairs, a flag torn down, Tear gas spread the news of trouble

to every corner of the square. Rivals turning to rioters

in minutes as people fled. They took the fight

into the surrounding streets, We watched from a nearby car park,

as this man, thought to be an England supporter,

was brutalised and left with It's minutes before someone

stops to help. Police say today's trouble involved

small groups of English, French and Russian fans,

but many more were No amount of chaos or tear gas can

hide the swift, smooth The violence has been getting worse

each day in the run All along the port area,

groups of England, France and Russia supporters have been clashing

with each other and with the police. France has invested a lot

in security around the stadium and the fanzone, but securing

the city itself, with its rival groups of supporters,

is proving to be the biggest Police told us there were at least

31 people injured in the clashes But the grim numbers that have

graced this match won't change the score that matters on the pitch

or the risk of what might follow. There are fresh reports from inside

the stadium tonight. Russian finds, after the final minute -- final

whistle was blown, throwing projectiles and advancing on the

English fans. Meanwhile, in the old port area, riot police have been

moving into position as the city braces itself for possible more

violence ahead. Let's go live to the stadium where England and Russia

have been playing this evening. Match Of The Day follows the news,

so if you are waiting for the highlights, do please pop

out of the room. Let's go live to our sports

editor, Dan Roan, who's Talkers through what has been

happening in the stadium. It looks clear now. Yes, the fans

are dispersing. You just heard Lucy referred to an incident. It happened

before the final whistle. Behind the goal, in that stand, there was what

sounded like quite a large explosion just before the match ended. It

meant the Russian fans rushed some of the England supporters who were

on the right-hand side of the stadium. I believed that several of

them, many of them, perhaps, jumped over a perimeter fence. Some got

injured in doing so and it caused worrying scenes. I have spoken to a

senior remember of the FA securities team who said he has seen nothing

like it at nine major tournaments. We know about the trouble that has

been happening in the centre of the city, but now there are disturbances

within the stadium itself. Turning to the football, a crucial match for

England. They have never won the opening game of European

Championship finals. This evening they produced one of their better

displays in recent years, but even then, it was not enough.

The starts of major tournaments are usually the moment that England

expectation gives way to a dose of harsh reality.

With a young and attacking side, largely rebuilt since failing

at the last World Cup, the hope was that lessons

In a first for his country, Wayne Rooney was in midfield.

Manager Roy Hodgson determined to accommodate his captain.

First Adam Lallana, then Harry kane going close.

Their opponents struggling to cope with their pace.

It was all England, chance after chance created.

All that was missing was a goal, the frustration beginning to build.

England's intensity now dropped, they were almost punished.

When Rooney was denied by a wonder save, he must have wondered

But then, finally, came the breakthrough.

The stunning free kick giving England the lead,

Now all England had to do was close out the final few

But then in stoppage time, the cruellest of blows,

Russia equalising to break English hearts.

COMMENTATOR: Russia level it at the last.

A slip in concentration costing a crucial victory.

One point poached by Russia, the draw hard to take, though,

for a stunned England team, who thought they'd earned more.

Disappointment for England in the end. Wales, meanwhile, have had to

wait 58 years to appear in a major tournament. Today, the two cons of

IKEA in Bordeaux. They made up for lost time,.

-- today they took on Slovakia in Bordeaux.

Man had not walked on the moon the last time Wales played major

With 30,000 travelling fans this time, they had come

The stadium shuddered, nerves fluttered.

So this is what they have been missing.

Slovakia nearly spoilt the party, Marek Hamsik befuddled

the Welsh defence, only for a last gasp clearance.

Then a chance for Wales to show they had truly arrived.

Gareth Bale stepped up for the free kick.

And he showed why he is the world's most expensive player.

It could be heard all the way back in Cardiff.

The second half saw Slovakia force their way back.

Wales were outmuscled, Ondrej Duda stayed calm.

But Wales held their nerve, Aaron Ramsey inched the ball ahead,

and Hal Robson-Kanu, who represented England

in his youth, ensured his place as a Welsh cult hero.

A memorable moment, an historic moment for our country,

and the most important thing is, it does not matter about the goals

or whatever, but we got the three points and gave the fans

Sterner tests lie ahead for Wales, not least their next game

against England on Thursday, but for now, they can savour

the winning feeling of life in Euro 2016.

And historic victory for Wales. England, meanwhile, left to reflect

on a result and performance that underlines what we already knew. In

attack, they have full of potential and movement, but in defence, they

still have some vulnerability. Sadly, this evening will be room

ember do as much for off field matters as on it. Uefa, the

governing body running this competition, condemned the violent

scenes playing out in the old harbour district of Marseille. Now

that trouble has spread inside as stadium, I am sure there will be

further comment from Uefa later on. OK, thank you.

Jeremy Corbyn says he's "working very hard" to put the case to Labour

voters for remaining in a reformed European Union.

As Mr Corbyn campaigned in Aberdeen, the former Conservative Cabinet

minister Iain Duncan Smith claimed "huge numbers" of Labour supporters

Here's our political correspondent, Carole Walker.

Out on the campaign trail in Aberdeen, Jeremy Corbyn said

we do need to stay in the EU to protect jobs and workers' rights,

despite his concerns that the EU is not sufficiently

We're working very hard to put the case to Labour voters

that we reform the European Union by remaining in the European Union.

If we walk away from it it's very hard to see how our economy can be

sustained, how the jobs can be sustained.

If Jeremy was to remain true to what he has said in the past,

Within the EU we can work together to make workers' rights,

individuals' rights, better across nations.

On TV last night, this was Jeremy Corbyn as you've

Swathed in furs, emerging from a limousine.

Light-hearted, of course, perhaps trying to reach

a new audience, but he appeared to reveal his true feelings

On a scale of one to ten, where one is couldn't really care

less about the EU and ten is jumping on the couch like Tom Cruise

on Oprah, how passionate are you about staying in the EU?

So we're looking at seven, seven and a half.

Out in Essex today, the former Tory leader said the Remain campaign

A huge number of Labour voters are actually for Leave now,

because of the crisis over immigration and the problems

on services, and on their salaries, by the way, wages are falling

Leave campaigners are in upbeat mood.

They believe their message on immigration is resonating

with voters, but with less than two weeks to go until polling day,

this whole referendum is now arousing strong

Party loyalties are being tossed aside as voters across the country

We can have all of those things when we leave the EU.

Sir Philip Green, the former BHS owner, has threatened to boycott

a parliamentary inquiry into the collapse of the retailer.

The billionaire tycoon claims the MP Frank Field,

who chairs the work and pensions committee, is biased against him.

Mr Field says he expects Sir Philip to appear, as our business

The collapse of BHS with the loss of up to 11,000 jobs highlighted

the competitive world of retailing, but also brought some

of the biggest characters on the high street into focus.

Few are better known than Sir Philip Green.

But he is angry at how he's been treated by some MPs,

and has written to Frank Field, demanding his resignation.

In his letter, Sir Philip said, you have used your position as chair

of the work and pensions committee to do your very best

I am not prepared to participate in a process which is not

even the pretence of fairness and objectivity.

But Frank Field, an MP since 1979, is unlikely to step down.

Sir Philip has got a lot of key questions to answer.

He is the person that can actually answer, and Parliament expects him

This stand-off between Frank Field and the retail tycoon

Sir Philip Green, who used to own BHS, will not make it any

easier for Parliament to find out what went wrong at the company,

Nor will it help the 11,000 or so employees at BHS find

new jobs, or restore the ?600 million pension black hole.

And tonight the Shadow Chancellor, John McDonnell, has said he will be

calling for Sir Philip Green to be stripped of his knighthood

if he fails to appear before MPs on Wednesday.

The Queen's official 90th birthday has been marked

with thousands watching the annual Trooping The Colour ceremony

in London, followed by a flypast which the Queen viewed

with members of her family, including her great

Our royal correspondent, Nicholas Witchell,

It was unmistakably her day, and she was unmissable in a hat

and coat of almost day-glo vividness, but regardless

of the fact that this was the Queen's official 90th
