:00:42. > :00:44.first, a look at the headlines on the golf bag and eagles, after a

:01:01. > :01:04.and Andy Murray is through to his first final for 15 months after

:01:05. > :01:14.beating Juan Monaco, in China this morning. There is really only one

:01:15. > :01:19.place to start and that is Gleneagles on day two of the Ryder

:01:20. > :01:22.Cup, Europe teed off with a 2-point lead and we can go live to the

:01:23. > :01:29.course to join our reporter. How are Europe getting on? It has been

:01:30. > :01:33.getting close, Europe have got six points, the United States have five

:01:34. > :01:37.points, and there is still one match being played from this morning

:01:38. > :01:41.sessions. If we have a quick look at what is happening on the board,

:01:42. > :01:44.Justin Rose is alongside Henrik Stenson, they won their match

:01:45. > :01:49.against Bubba Watson and Matt Kuchar. Americans want the next two

:01:50. > :01:55.matches, there is one match still being played, that is Rory McIlroy

:01:56. > :02:04.alongside Ian Poulter and they are playing Rickie Fowler and I do have

:02:05. > :02:09.alongside me, a golfer, five live commentary, you have been following

:02:10. > :02:15.rows and Henrik Stenson, they have been playing well? It was an honour

:02:16. > :02:18.to be there, they were firing on all cylinders and Justin Rose was

:02:19. > :02:25.sensational, Henrik Stenson played his part as well, allowing Justin

:02:26. > :02:30.Rose to play some quality shots, and one minute one person was making the

:02:31. > :02:34.putt, and the other it was another, the hole must have looks like a

:02:35. > :02:39.bucket and it was sensational golf. We have been waiting for Ian Poulter

:02:40. > :02:44.to be the talisman of the team but it seems to be Justin Rose? It is

:02:45. > :02:48.commonly goes quietly about his business and yet he produces the

:02:49. > :02:53.goods, his putting was truly amazing today, he is playing great, he will

:02:54. > :02:59.play this afternoon and I'm excited to watch him play as well.

:03:00. > :03:04.Conditions have not been easy, very strong winds yesterday, better

:03:05. > :03:09.today, we do have the foursomes, the pairings, are you surprised, there

:03:10. > :03:13.is no room for Ian Poulter, on the American side Jordan Spieth and read

:03:14. > :03:21.comeback in and we have got Garcia and Rory McIlroy as well. I'm

:03:22. > :03:29.somewhat surprised, by Rory McIlroy being not there. And also not to

:03:30. > :03:35.have Keegan Bradley there. Jordan Spieth and read, not surprised at

:03:36. > :03:39.all and I think Tom Watson got a lot of criticism for not playing them

:03:40. > :03:43.yesterday afternoon because they were on fire, they have no baggage

:03:44. > :03:49.and they can go out and play and looking forward to that. It will be

:03:50. > :03:54.an exciting afternoon. At the moment it is six points to Europe and five

:03:55. > :03:57.points to America, it is very close. There are plenty of Americans at

:03:58. > :04:02.Gleneagles and there could be a fair few in London as the Oakland Raider

:04:03. > :04:07.'s take on the Miami Dolphins, but as the NFL looks to cement its

:04:08. > :04:10.global appeal, back home it is in scandal after some high-profile

:04:11. > :04:16.domestic abuse cases following the players.

:04:17. > :04:22.The razzmatazz, the cheerleaders, the big hits and the players, the

:04:23. > :04:30.NFL circus is in town, as Wembley once again swaps football for

:04:31. > :04:35.gridiron. Watson is that rarest of beasts, and English American

:04:36. > :04:43.football is daft. You know, watch me do what I do, see the sacrifices and

:04:44. > :04:46.what I have achieved, to have the opportunity to play at Wembley is

:04:47. > :04:51.unbelievable. Scenes like these will become far more common if the NFL

:04:52. > :04:57.gets its way, it is now a question of when and if not if a team is

:04:58. > :05:01.based permanently in London. But now the team has big issues, football

:05:02. > :05:04.for so long America's favourite sport is engulfed in a domestic

:05:05. > :05:10.abuse scandal that it cannot seem to tackle. Minnesota Vikings star

:05:11. > :05:14.Adrian Peterson is accused of whipping his four-year-old son, and

:05:15. > :05:19.the Baltimore rave all is player Ray Rice is seen arguing with his wife

:05:20. > :05:23.as they get into a hotel lift. The footage is so shocking that we

:05:24. > :05:28.cannot show you the left hook that knocks out cold before he drags her

:05:29. > :05:31.limp body from the elevator. He was only banned for two games before the

:05:32. > :05:36.subsequent outcry saw him indefinitely suspended, the league

:05:37. > :05:42.agree that they have not handled the crisis well. It is a huge serious

:05:43. > :05:47.issue that fundamentally has the potential to undermine things that

:05:48. > :05:51.we do, things that we are trying to accomplish. It is a critical issue

:05:52. > :05:58.for us. It is an issue that we are going to get right. The face of the

:05:59. > :06:02.sport is one of thrills and family fun, if the NFL truly wants to be

:06:03. > :06:04.the biggest sport on the planet, it must first get its own house in

:06:05. > :06:14.order. STUDIO: Wembley is where hundreds of

:06:15. > :06:21.teams would like to end up, 158 non-league sides will compete in the

:06:22. > :06:25.second round of the FA Cup, today, we looked at FC Romania that was

:06:26. > :06:30.founded for Romanian immigrants eight years ago. And a chance, and

:06:31. > :06:39.the gold! 20 years ago Romania lit up the

:06:40. > :06:42.grandest stage in football. Remain you carry the European challenge

:06:43. > :06:51.into the quarterfinals. Today, in the less glamorous surroundings

:06:52. > :06:56.here, they are living their own dream. This is FC Romania, founded

:06:57. > :07:03.by a group of Romanian friends in shares and in 2006, now good enough

:07:04. > :07:08.to be granted a place in the FA Cup for the first time this season, they

:07:09. > :07:15.have already won three games. It was my dream and this is my dream coming

:07:16. > :07:19.true, I understand, what it means for all English people stop and I

:07:20. > :07:24.think it is something special, you cannot really say it in words. Their

:07:25. > :07:28.progress has been rapid, in just eight years they have gone from what

:07:29. > :07:35.is effectively the 16th division, to the ninth, that and their impressive

:07:36. > :07:39.FA Cup run is starting to capture the imagination of the locals in

:07:40. > :07:42.this corner of Hertfordshire. I came to watch the game, really enjoyed

:07:43. > :07:48.the sort of football that they played. There is a lot of sincerity,

:07:49. > :08:01.completely different. The club has had to answer criticism

:08:02. > :08:10.that its name builds a barrier to inclusivity. We have got two Brits,

:08:11. > :08:18.and some other people. Over time it is evolving. FC remain you's next

:08:19. > :08:22.opponents are Sutton United, three divisions higher than them, and with

:08:23. > :08:32.a famous FA Cup history of their own. Sutton United, of the Vauxhall

:08:33. > :08:38.conference. May be the dream will be at an end or will continue, you

:08:39. > :08:41.never know. Two decades on from World Cup fame, can FC Romania put

:08:42. > :08:49.their country on the footballing map again. STUDIO: Good luck to all of

:08:50. > :08:53.the teams involved, it is goalless between Liverpool and Everton and no

:08:54. > :08:57.goals between St Mirren and Celtic in the Scottish premiership. That is

:08:58. > :09:00.all from us in the BBC sports centre. Goodbye.

:09:01. > :09:04.Hold on, there is just one more thing. We've got a newbie.
