:01:23. > :01:27.despite existing UN resolutions. Washington denounced
:01:28. > :01:30.it as a weapons test. Moscow said the move
:01:31. > :01:34."undermined" regional security. And China, normally more sympathetic
:01:35. > :01:38.to Pyongyang, expressed "regret". After the emergency meeting,
:01:39. > :01:43.the American ambassador to the UN urged the Security Council to pass
:01:44. > :01:56.new, tough sanctions on North Korea. North Korea's launch yesterday,
:01:57. > :02:04.using prescribed a listing missile technology -- ballistic missile
:02:05. > :02:07.technology undermines regional stability and violates their
:02:08. > :02:11.obligations under four separate security council resolutions. It
:02:12. > :02:18.demonstrates yet again that the DPRK will continue to escalate tensions
:02:19. > :02:18.in the absence of a strong and forceful response from the
:02:19. > :02:22.international community. Our correspondent Nick Bryant
:02:23. > :02:30.is at the UN in New York. There are already sanctioned in
:02:31. > :02:35.place against North Korea. What is the feeling there? Are more
:02:36. > :02:39.sanctions going to work? The US certainly wants tougher and more
:02:40. > :02:44.comprehensive sanctions, as you said, in the decade since North
:02:45. > :02:49.Korea carried out its first atomic test, in October 2006, there have
:02:50. > :02:52.been four sets of sanctions, asset freezes, travel bans, bans on luxury
:02:53. > :02:58.goods aimed at hitting the elite where it hurts, in their lavish
:02:59. > :03:03.lifestyles. But while it has slowed down the nuclear and ballistic
:03:04. > :03:07.programmes, obviously, self-evidently, it has not managed
:03:08. > :03:10.to haul them. There are questions about how rigidly the sanctions are
:03:11. > :03:15.being enforced and how widely they are being applied. To give you an
:03:16. > :03:18.example, 32 North Koreans are named by the United Nations, who have an
:03:19. > :03:27.association with the nuclear programme. In Iran, it is 121. That
:03:28. > :03:34.is why the Americans want sanctions to be broader and tougher. What will
:03:35. > :03:39.the new sanctions look like? That is up for negotiation. The negotiations
:03:40. > :03:43.started last month, in fact, after the fourth nuclear test was
:03:44. > :03:47.conducted by North Korea. The problem for the Americans is that
:03:48. > :03:51.the Chinese are resisting pressures for tough sanctions, punitive
:03:52. > :03:56.sanctions. The fear in Beijing is that they could topple the Pyongyang
:03:57. > :04:00.regime which would destabilise the country and create a refugee crisis
:04:01. > :04:06.on China's border. It does not want that. Pyongyang knows it can exploit
:04:07. > :04:10.that fear. Another added layer of complication is the tensions at the
:04:11. > :04:14.moment between America and China over the man-made islands in the
:04:15. > :04:20.South China Sea. Cooperation on North Korea is made more difficult
:04:21. > :04:24.because of that ongoing row. So Pyongyang can exploit China's fear
:04:25. > :04:29.and also those tensions tween Washington and Beijing. Nick Bryant

:20:22. > :20:26.Lingard. That looked to be enough to seal all three points until Diego
:20:27. > :20:31.Costa's equaliser. We are happy with the point. Of course, when you
:20:32. > :20:35.analyse shortly the game, I think Manchester United started very well.
:20:36. > :20:42.They stretched the field of play. As a consequence, we dropped back to
:20:43. > :20:46.far and we could not get into the duels. They played very well. We
:20:47. > :20:51.don't reward ourselves with a victory. We were the better team. We
:20:52. > :20:57.have created more chances and then you have to win. But until the last

:21:25. > :21:28.defensively but we lost a bit of the urgency in the second half. I
:21:29. > :21:34.believe as well we lost the killer instinct to get the third goal, you
:21:35. > :21:38.know. On top of that, Bournemouth are red team who are physically very

:22:10. > :22:12.Ireland and Wales played out the toughest of stalemates, 16-16 it
