Hi there, thank you for being with us. We begin with an ongoing tragedy in hawaii. At least 36 people have died in wildfires and President Joe Biden has issued a major Disaster Declaration. Hawaiis governor says it was the deadliest Natural Disaster for hawaii for generations and he expects the number of deaths to go up significantly. Thousands of people have been forced to leave their homes and hospitals are treating patients for burns and smoke inhalation. Our North America correspondent nomia iqbal has this report. Much of the Hawaiian Island of maui is now scorched earth. A pilot can hardly believe what hes seeing. Oh, my gosh, look at the harbour this looks like baghdad or something. The Historic Town of lahaina barely exists any more.

even china, qualifying for the men s tournament, well, that s pretty far fetched. and yet, here they are representing themselves admirably at this year s world cup in australia and new zealand. now, just take a look at this. every single women s team here is ranked higher than its male counterpart. sometimes the difference is stark. look at vietnam, for example. so why is this? well, the first reason has to do with the neglect of the women s game in general. so, for literally decades, europe and south america powerhouses of the men s game hardly invested in women s football at all, so the difference between money and resources that you see in the men s game hasn t had really time to develop. low investment across the board means that the distances between teams aren t as big. but there s also cultural clues as well. so in the men s game, it s middle eastern teams who take up a lot of the qualifying spots for the world cup, but they hardly bother with women s football,
