lastly, we hung in there as second that was a lot better, we had conviction that we could've admittedly be more uncomfortable for them it would be very easy to just score in that second half but, i thought they showed great character in support when they do that and get rewarded for it. i think the team is a strong belief and diverse f is not good enough and the coach _ and diverse f is not good enough and the coach is _ and diverse f is not good enough and the coach is very angry at that time 'ust the coach is very angry at that time just play. _ the coach is very angry at that time just play, and became a better and i think_ just play, and became a better and i think we _ just play, and became a better and i think we have to grow a little bit mentally— think we have to grow a little bit mentally because the footballs there. — mentally because the footballs there, the coaches there and we can be at _ there, the coaches there and we can be at the _ there, the coaches there and we can be at the top in the future. let's hear from manchester city, who have led in each of their last three premier league games but have ended up drawing them all. that's games against chelsea, liverpool and now spurs. defender ruben dias was left deflated by city's inability to hold on again.
7:36 pm
feeling the frustration, similar to liverpool game and i would soon dominated for the most part and the troubles we can get but overall, i cannot say that i met with the performance of the team, everyone was on it, the team is very aggressive and very sharp. milli aggressive and very sharp. will continue playing get a good level and it— continue playing get a good level and it cannot be negative and we have _ and it cannot be negative and we have to _ and it cannot be negative and we have to be — and it cannot be negative and we have to be in the moment. if this is a team, _ have to be in the moment. if this is a team, how— have to be in the moment. if this is a team, how you react and perform at a team, how you react and perform at a high _ a team, how you react and perform at a high level— a team, how you react and perform at a high level and make the step forward — a high level and make the step forward and you can see three or
7:37 pm
four chances of course, even with the result — four chances of course, even with the result but it is what it is. city drop to third, because liverpool's win takes them second. it was another great game at anfield. seven goals in the match between liverpool and fulham with liverpool coming from behind to score two last minute goals and take all three points. trent alexander—arnold's freekick went in off goalkeeper bernd leno to open the scoring. but fulham equalised quickly. then a spectacular goal from alexis mac allister put liverpool back in front. fulham levelled again, and then went ahead through bobby de cordova—reid. in the 80th minute they winning 3—2. but liverpool substitute wataru endo scored his first premier league goal and seconds later alexander—arnold won the match for his side. liverpool are now two points behind leaders arsenal. fulham stay fourteenth. we played an incredible game
7:38 pm
until he did it any more. until we didn't any more. all credit to fulham, they did really well. all the stuff they did was really good but we had too much in hand to give it away and today, we scored four and we were lucky to win the game. that is pretty much everything. but besides that, that's football and you have to stay on track and if you can keep that feeling around 3—3, we kept believing and we are 3—3, we kept believing and we were still active getting overly nervous because a nice piece of football still active getting overly nervous because it was a nice piece of football which ended in a ridiculous finish in the place in and you could see yes, we want to win the game and i like that as well.
7:39 pm
we didn't even have to shout from outside, you could see it in the body language of the boys and it was up and down but, for goals, never seen that before in one game, to be honest. yeah, good. it finished 2—2 between andoni iraola's bournemouth and unai emery�*s aston villa as the two basque coaches went head—to—head. ollie watkins is on fire this season, he got the second goal and equaliser for villa in the 90th minute. it's after antoine semenyo scored bourenmouth's first, villa then equalised, before dominic solanke got bournemouth's second. but watkin�*s last gasp goal keeps villa in fourth place in the table. the second half, we started to really keep it consistent that is how we finished but it was very difficult.
7:40 pm
it was comparatively late but i think is good for us because in the match that you are doing, and scoring and then, we tried to use this point because in the match that you are doing, and scoring and then, we tried to use this point thinking it's something where you can't win without taking the point. a point against the bill is a good one but after what happened outside to win the game, we had the most clear chances. but against this kind of opposition and we scored the third one and scored a really good goal and we had to finish but it's not enough. chelsea beat brighton 3—2 at stamford bridge despite losing conor gallagher to a red card in the first half. it had looked straightforward for the home side — they were two nil up after twenty minutes through levi colwill and enzo fernandez.
7:41 pm
brighton pulled it back to 2—1, but despite being down to ten men chelsea pulled away again with another from fernandez. a latejoao pedro goal made it 3—2, chelsea though climb into the top half of the table, to the relief of manager mauricio pochettino after their heavy defeat at newcastle last week. we started the game really well, and after the win, it was complicated and brighton is a very good team and they played well and sometimes, they force you to play deep. it was really good play and we controlled the second half and we scored the third
7:42 pm
goal and we conceded on the last few minutes, yes, it was too much and what happened on the end, the confusion and we are all exhausted and there is much confusion. and we had newcastle and show different faces and that is why i'm happy for the team. the result was particularly galling for the brighton boss, after his side had won their previous two matches. we played another great game and much better than nottingham and the quality of play was great but the amount of teams with incredible quality and set
7:43 pm
pieces are a part of football. and in that situation, you have to have a different attitude. west ham stay a place below brighton after they dropped points at home to crystal palace. they had been leading through muhammed kudus but odsonne edouard's second half equaliser meant the points were shared asjoe lynskey reports. west ham's manager is 60, crystal palace's 76. the top—flight oldest coaches in the clubs are five points apart but it is the hammers looking upwards. muhammed came from ajax and he scored three goals already. and recently, that is been the trend. commander of the back of four defeats in the first have a chance commander of the back of four defeats in five and the first have a chance came through deflection. finding a way to go to the help
7:44 pm
of the defenders, the paul of the defenders, the ball gifted to him by konstantinos. but it was the home who came closest to a victory but first emerson and thenjared bowen couldn't turn home the crosses. they're now nine points above the drop zone and it is hodson who is happy with the hit on the road. the game was even in at first, the penalty put them i—0 but at the end, hats off to the players and i hope they are satisfied with the performance and we hope to get some confidence because i've certainly got some confidence from the performance. i'm a little disappointed we didn't
7:45 pm
get more but really tight premier league game and we gave away a horrendous goal sometimes the kick—off time on a sunday doesn't help either. but that's just my opinion. overall, it wasn't the best performance. in the scottish premiership, three second half goals gave celtic a 3—1 win at stjohnstone. they are now unbeaten in their opening 15 league matches this season. it's the first time that's happened since 2017. adam cottier reports. celebration at saintjohnston after an important win for brendan rogers and his team. five days on from their defeat which closed the door on their champions league hopes, following behind the second bomb of opponents and managing
7:46 pm
the scramble in an untidy opener. celtic ribbon to clean up on the second half to sparkling apps, level. and the celtic captains in an equaliser followed by riley's blistering shots which put the defending scottish champions in sights of a 12 minute 15 league games this season. saintjohnston decided to prevent celtic from winning in this campaign and still posed a threat they had to be alert to stop shay turner and the breakaway, celtic reported to have a 16 successive wave victory and the breakaway, celtic reported to have a 14th victory at saintjohnston away at the james forrest finish. two other fixtures in the scottish premiership. hibs put two past aberdeen at easter road to stay fifth in the table. dylan vente and will fish with the goals. and rangers also won 2—0, beating st mirren at ibrox. abdallah sima scoring a brace. let's bring you up

7:49 pm
we gave a decent version, not our best. we have not stopped away and 2—1, we should be getting done and on the counter attack and that is like you say, it was a game of two halves in terms of balance and maybe should say a draw is a fair result and from their side, in the lead get it from their side and maybe they should've been more from the perspective of the chances that they created, we have to win the game. well, that third round draw earlier today threw up plenty of intriguing match ups. arsenal and liverpool would have hoped for an easier start to their cup campaigns. they've drawn each other, the gunners at least will be at home to liverpool. and sunderland will face newcastle in a tyne—wear derby at the stadium of light. the pair haven't met since they were both

we've seen some changes to the weather today. across the south of the country, low pressure has been ushering in some slightly milder air, more cloud outbreaks of rain. it's the north of the country which is seeing the cold, dry, sunnier weather today. but this new upcoming week starts off on a cold note. then we start to see it turning more unsettled — wet, windy weather moving in off the atlantic. that will usher in milder for all areas by the end of the week. now it's the first of a series of low pressure systems continue to push northwards into england and wales. in fact, the rain's going to pep up, turn heavier through the evening and overnight period. as it bumps into the colder air lying across the north of the country, likely see some snow of the welsh hills, the peak district, the pennines, maybe even down to lower levels for a time. we'll also see wintry showers feeding into eastern scotland, but western scotland, northern ireland will see the clearer skies. so here the lowest, the temperatures less cold. further south, southern england should have a frost—free night. but to monday morning it
7:57 pm
could be a bit tricky across northern england, the north midlands and north wales, could see some wet snow on the hills, maybe the odd flake down to lower levels for a time, but it'll be mostly of rain. but as the band of rain continues to move north, it's likely to see that risk of sleet and snow transferring to the north pennines. frequent wintry showers pushing into northern and eastern scotland could give some significant accumulations there. best of the brightness western scotland, northern ireland but to central southern parts of britain will stay rather cloudy, quite breezy with rain on and off. now, despite temperatures being a little bit higher across the board, you factor in the wind tomorrow, it's going to feel quite cold and raw. now that area of low pressure starts to pull out towards the near continent. so during monday night into tuesday, it'll take a while, but it means that the eastern side of england will bear the brunt of the edge of the low, bringing fairly brisk north, north—easterly winds, further wintry showers here, and there'll be further wintry showers, northern and eastern scotland. but elsewhere, with a ridge of high pressure building in increasing amounts of sunshine out west. so an improving afternoon for many. but again, it's going
7:58 pm
to be quite a cold day. temperatures 2—7 degrees — cooler than that further east when you factor in the breeze. so wednesday looks like it'll be a fine day for most. another cold one to come. then thursday, friday, it turns wetter and windier, but you'll notice the milder air reaches pretty much all areas. so we start the upcoming week off on a cold note, a bit of sunshine around before it turns more unsettled by the end of the week and turning milderfor all.
