hello there, we'll start with the fa cup 3rd round, there were 8 more ties on sunday and the competition's most successful side, the 1a time winners arsenal are out. they had the best of the chances against the premier league leaders liverpool but lost 2—nil here's our sports correspondent andy swiss. unfamiliar shirts for a very familiar rivalry. liverpool in purple, arsenal in white, and the gunners were so nearly in front. reiss nelson with the first of a string of early chances for the hosts, but crucially they couldn't take them. martin odegaard came closest, but still not close enough. and liverpool nearly made them pay, as trent alexander—arnold rattled the bar. plenty of drama, but no goals at the break. after it, more of the same.
12:46 am
arsenal's domination matched only by their frustration. for their manager, it was getting hard to watch. and with ten minutes left, it was even harder. liverpool find a way! had liverpool pinched it after that own goal? deep into stoppage time, they definitely had. luis diaz sealing victory in style. liverpool through, while arsenal will be wondering quite how this one got away. andy swiss, bbc news. the gunners really paying the price for all those chances that went by the way. liverpool hanging on, stealing it late on. they will be in monday's fourth round draw.— objective just to get into the half of the next round. we've got the two league goals. we had chances. we change things around or have time.
12:47 am
internally, and we came out to play football. took our chances. the changes that we did make and the change in the system and really made an impact for us. i am really happy and really proud that we could win this game, which obviously of course arsenal could have won it as well, not a shred of doubt. but we kept the game open that long, and then in decisive moments, finished it off, so that speaks to the character of the boys. they really wanted it and so we got it. the performance was a matter of chancesin the performance was a matter of chances in the situation we have to win the game, there's no question about that. we're not capitalising for that we have to capitalise to win games. at the moment we did can you do? what can i tell them?
12:48 am
play worse than liverpool and you will get the game? no, we have to push forward, and when my team play like that, what can i do? i'm still behind them 100%. 3rd round weekend is usaully all about the upsets and dented reputations but no premier league side has been beaten by lower league opposition so far. holders manchester city crusied past championship strugglers side huddersfield 5—nil at the etihad. jo currie was watching this one. in a weekend where the magic of the cup had been lacking, could championship strugglers huddersfield pop the bubble and cause an almighty upset? the first half of the first half was uneventful, before city struck. and foden with the shot! finds the back of the net. from the narrowest of angles, they took a narrow lead. city then upped the pressure, and got an instant reward. alvarez for manchester city, a second goal! two goals in five minutes, city were appearing as they headed into the break.
12:49 am
when you are 2—0 down, who don't want to see come off the bench? yes, this guy. city welcoming back kevin de bruyne for his first appearance since august. that before they netted goal number three. it is in off the underside of the bar! it may have been deflected, but the 20—year—old won't mind that. huddersfield tried to give their travelling fans something to cheer about, but were denied, and thereafter it was about to get much worse, as phil foden made it four. into the bottom corner. what a beautiful finish that was from phil foden. kevin de bruyne then marked his return with an assist, setting up the also returning jeremy doku who hammered home number five. city through to the next round, not even breaking a sweat. jo currie, bbc news. the satisfaction to play this game like it was a final of, you know, the important competition, how humble we're, how we fight each other,
12:50 am
how comfortable the principles, what do you have to do to be a solid team, we do it again, i am really pleased to still manage this group of players. in the other third round ties, premier league luton and nottingham forest were held by league one sides bolton and blackpool. west ham will also have to replay against bristol city from the championship. there were wins for leeds, wrexham and west bromwich albion who knocked out non league aldershot. one more third round tie to come. league one wigan hosting manchester united on monday. chelsea and australia striker sam kerr is set to miss the rest of the season after suffering an anterior cruciate ligament injury. it happened during her club's warm weather training camp in morocco and chelsea say kerr will be assessed by a specialist in the coming days and then begin her rehabilitation. it's likely she'll miss the rest of the domestic season... and potentially the olympics if australia qualify. she's been cheslea's top scorer for ther past three seasons.
12:51 am
it's huge. i think she had a really tough season last year because physically because of the fact that fran kirby was out for a lot of it, and sam kerr had to carry a lot with chelsea being there really. she was really their only main striker. so i think that will be a good go for them, because i think ——huge blow she had been playing the game for 90 minutes, and then puts the ball into the box, or reaches out, and you know that sam kerr is a banker. if it is on her head or is she in that position, she is going to put it away. fans, players and coaches have paid their last respects in brazil to mario zagallo, the first man to win the world cup both as a player and a manager. a public wake took place in rio de janeiro on sunday. zagallo was seen by many as the embodiment of the brazilian national team, whose flair and skill gained a global following. there was a short parade
12:52 am
through the streets of rio, before his burial service at the sao joao batista cemetery. zagallo won two world cups as a player in 1958 and 62, and one as a manager with the great brazil team of 1970, he was also on the coaching staff when they won it in 1994. rafael nadal has pulled out of the australian open that starts next weekendhe's only just returned to action from nearly a year out and he's picked up another hip injury nadalfelt discomfort in the same area during his quarter—final loss to jordan thompson at the brisbane international. a scan has revealed a very small muscle tear. the spaniard says it's not the same issue that required an operation injune but he's not ready to compete at the first grand slam of the year and he's returning to spain for treatment and rest. everyone is holding their breath. nadal knows he has only one relatively serious injury away from his career ending and i think he is at peace with that. he wasn't getting

too light—headed. he had three match points to take his place in the semifinals and he is not getting too down about this latest setback, what we don't know yet, is whether he will be able to spend enough time on court to build up the match count he will require if he is going to be as competitive as he would like to be later in the year, especially — on the clay—court season. the masters snooker is underway in london and the there was an upset in the opening match, with the world champion luca brecel going out in the first round. the belgian second seed was beaten by six frames to two by england's jack lisowski at alexandra palace. lisowski was 4—0 up before brecel pulled two frames back, but lisowski rallied to win and book his place in the quarterfinals. lisowski will now face the 2015 masters champion shaun murphy. murphy also won by 6 frames to 2 agianst chinese debutatant zhang anda,

slow to lift and clear as we head through the morning. i see stretches and still showers streaming in from the north sea. quite a risk north easterly wind across the london area, east anglia and the southeast of england for the winter air on higher ground, we could see a light dusting of snow in some places but showers as the wind picks up becomes more easily it will drive to showers for the west into central, southern england perhaps into east and wales. for many away from the fog patches there will be some weak spells of winter sunshine. some areas of cloud, that take us out towards the ease for the top temperatures between two and five celsius with a feeling cold but feeling even colder still in exposure to that risk northeasterly wind. that is always going to feel strongest towards itself with a here it will feel subzero for most of the day. as we had through tuesday there is a little more of a breeze towards the cell. the wind is picking up so this will help break up the car, more sunshine, maybe censure towards the southwest of england and through the channel islands for most of the day. as
