:00:00. > 3:59:59Ireland while Scotland beat Japan. More through the evening on BBC News
:00:00. > :00:09.Channel. The Euros dream is over
:00:10. > :00:11.for Northern Ireland. They are out of the tournament
:00:12. > :00:25.after being beaten 1-0 by Wales In a tent and cagey first half
:00:26. > :00:29.Northern Ireland had the better chances against a tentative Wales
:00:30. > :00:35.with Stuart Dallas forcing assay from Wayne Hennessey early. The
:00:36. > :00:40.Welsh have the ball in the nets midway through the first half but
:00:41. > :00:44.Ramsey was clearly offside. Precious few chances in this tense clash
:00:45. > :00:49.until Gareth Bale extended Michael McGovern with a trademark free kick
:00:50. > :00:53.but Northern Ireland's number one was equal to it. Gareth Bale
:00:54. > :00:57.provided the moment which swung the contest with 15 minutes to go, he
:00:58. > :01:01.whipped in a dangerous cross and the unfortunate Gareth McAuley to do
:01:02. > :01:08.nothing but steer the ball into his own net. The European jelly came to
:01:09. > :01:11.an end in the French capital but my colonial's side has achieved what no
:01:12. > :01:15.other side achieved by reaching the knockout stages of this competition
:01:16. > :01:17.for the first time and will return to Belfast with their heads held
:01:18. > :01:18.high. Well minutes ago,
:01:19. > :01:29.the Northern Ireland manager How disappointed to lose the game
:01:30. > :01:34.and exit the tournament? Devastating. I thought we were the
:01:35. > :01:39.better team on the day, to lose as we did, the nature of the goal, very
:01:40. > :01:43.disappointing. I thought we gave everything, couldn't have asked any
:01:44. > :01:47.more over the whole tournament and it is very disappointing. A cruel
:01:48. > :01:54.way to go out, what we say to Gareth McAuley? He knows it is one of those
:01:55. > :01:58.balls. He opted to touch it and there's always the risk, very
:01:59. > :02:02.difficult for him to assess the situation, I haven't seen a replay
:02:03. > :02:07.of the goal yet but he has been with Nickerson and since I've been the
:02:08. > :02:14.manager. It is a shame for him as a great tournament. Hard to reflect
:02:15. > :02:20.with any sum out what this means was Mac it shows we can compete at this
:02:21. > :02:25.stage. We have shown that today against a team who are composed of
:02:26. > :02:29.Premier League players and we held our own and whether better team. We
:02:30. > :02:34.will take that forward and give the World Cup general go.
:02:35. > :02:36.Well BBC Newsline's Mark Simpson has spent the afternoon in the stadium
:02:37. > :02:44.Huge disappointment there for fans Mark.
:02:45. > :02:52.They are gutted tonight. Only around 7000 Northern Ireland fans were able
:02:53. > :02:58.to get tickets for the match today but boy did they make some noise.
:02:59. > :03:03.Have a quick look at this. This is a picture of the fans singing before
:03:04. > :03:06.the match, they then went to the stadium for more singing, they sang
:03:07. > :03:11.in the first half, they sang during the second, even after Wales took
:03:12. > :03:14.the lead and they sang at half-time and anyone who knows anything about
:03:15. > :03:20.football knows that is quite rare at football matches. Normally half-time
:03:21. > :03:28.is when they relaxed but how fans feeling tonight? Is short time ago
:03:29. > :03:31.within the last few moments we got the reaction. We played as well as
:03:32. > :03:41.we could and gave them the support we could and all the best to Wales.
:03:42. > :03:50.Disappointed. Never really created much, did well to get this far.
:03:51. > :03:52.Bring on the World Cup. Bad news for Northern Ireland fans here in Paris
:03:53. > :03:56.but good news for their families if they are watching. After almost
:03:57. > :03:58.three weeks in France they are coming home but they might need
:03:59. > :04:01.cheering up. The US Vice President Joe Biden has
:04:02. > :04:04.urged people here not to be shaken by the result
:04:05. > :04:07.of the European Union referendum. Mr Biden, who's visiting Ireland,
:04:08. > :04:09.said the decision to leave the EU would cause some economic
:04:10. > :04:13.uncertainty but stressed the importance of keeping
:04:14. > :04:15.the peace process on track. Sinn Fein says the Prime Minister
:04:16. > :04:18.should meet the First and Deputy First Ministers
:04:19. > :04:20.to discuss the implications Here's our Political Editor Mark
:04:21. > :04:39.Devenport. Joe Biden visited new Grange in
:04:40. > :04:42.County Meath today. And exit was in the White House's preferred option
:04:43. > :04:48.but he hopes it will not disrupt the political process. I believe the
:04:49. > :04:53.people of Northern Ireland will not stop this moving forward to cement
:04:54. > :04:56.peace. The disappointment to leave has not been hidden but one MEP
:04:57. > :05:05.believes the Irish government can play a shall role in relation to
:05:06. > :05:10.negotiations. I see an agreement between both sovereign governments
:05:11. > :05:15.to deal with the issues on the border and between north and south.
:05:16. > :05:21.What I also see in the work we have to do with the British in terms of
:05:22. > :05:25.helping negotiations at any level. Nicola Sturgeon's Cabinet has agreed
:05:26. > :05:30.to draft for a new Scottish independence vote. Is the future of
:05:31. > :05:36.the UK in doubt? The position of Scotland is alarming to Northern
:05:37. > :05:40.Ireland. Despite champagne cork calling for a border poll is not
:05:41. > :05:45.back in the immediate future but if Scotland were to leave it would be
:05:46. > :05:48.in a very odd position. With the two major partners in the storm onto
:05:49. > :05:54.executive taking diametrically opposing views, it is certain the
:05:55. > :05:55.locations of the referendum will be raised with the assembly reconvenes
:05:56. > :05:58.on Monday. The annual Whiterock Orange
:05:59. > :06:00.parade in west Belfast has This was the first time that a small
:06:01. > :06:04.section of the march was not allowed to pass
:06:05. > :06:06.through the peace gates on Workman Avenue because of
:06:07. > :06:09.a Parades Commission ruling. A letter of protest objecting
:06:10. > :06:11.to the decision was presented to the police and no parade
:06:12. > :06:17.restrictions were broken. Let's get a look at the weather
:06:18. > :06:26.forecast here's Angie. Good evening today has been the
:06:27. > :06:29.better day of the weekend and there is some rain in the forecast as we

:06:45. > :06:50.Western counties. Overnight lows no lower than 10-11. Tomorrow a
:06:51. > :06:54.different day, wet for a time as well but during the morning is that
:06:55. > :07:01.band of rain continues to work eastwards, not heavy but it is
:07:02. > :07:04.likely to be persistent. That's rain extends into Western Scotland, Wales
:07:05. > :07:08.and the south-west of England, eventually moving into the
:07:09. > :07:12.Northwest. The best conditions are a few showers tomorrow, the East of
:07:13. > :07:17.England some sunshine here and temperatures in and around 20.
:07:18. > :07:20.Behind this band of rain, we might get the odd bright spell but
:07:21. > :07:24.generally speaking we will hang on to a good deal of cloud. Not
:07:25. > :07:30.completely dry for Northern Ireland, the afternoon, still patches of rain
