where cape verde b, 2—1 thanks to the goal in injury time. before that we had egypt with a late goal. aside he was never won a game, the minnows, and now var needed to avoid that to save the pharaohs. in the early game salvaging a 1—1 draw for nigeria and equatorial guinea so a combined... and especially donna. the games were in group

b... we have groups c and d getting under way and the standout comb getting the defence under way against mpi. way and the standout comb getting the defence under way against mpi. two major tournaments, the africa cup of nations and the afc asian cup, started this weekend. there were no major upsets on day two of the asian cup, though, with two of the continent's powerhouses — japan and iran — beginning their campaigns. japan came into the tournament on a io—game winning streak and underlined their credentials as one of the teams to watch in qatar with a 4—2 win over vietnam, as dan ogunshakin reports. backin back in front...

overpowered but not overwhelmed, palestine struck back. a goal that sparked joyous celebrations. that happiness would be short—lived, however, as 84—1 when was brave down i —— wrapped up after the break... hong kong equalised and in doing so scored a one half thousand asian couple. the dragons cannot build on that milestone —— a 1000 asian cup goal. the uae won. viniciusjunior scored a first half hat—trick to give real madrid victory in the spanish super cup with a 4—1win over rivals barcelona on sunday. vinicius scored twice in the first 10 minutes to put carlo ancelotti's side in control in the game being played in saudi arabia.

robert lewandowski pulled one back for barcelona, but vinicius converted a 39th—minute penalty to restore real�*s two—goal lead and claim his hat—trick. rodrygo then added a fourth in the second half before ronald araujo was sent off to complete barca's misery. the victory was madrid's third straight win in el clasico and gives them a 13th super cup success. tottenham came from behind twice in their premier league game against manchester united to deny them a win in front of new co—owner sirjim ratcliffe. ratcliffe watched on at old trafford for the first time since his proposed 25% purchase of united was confirmed as rasmus hojlund gave united a lead in the first five minutes. but brazilian striker richarlison levelled for spurs with his sixth goal in six league games. united went ahead again before the break through marcus rashford scoring his first goal since april. spurs got their second equaliser just after half—time, 2—2 the final score. the attitude from the team was great, the spirit was great.

we thought, we have given everything today. we put on the pitch, that is what fans should expect. the fans were behind us, i think it was a great game for everyone, not the only man united fans but all over, because there was so much tempo. they are a good team on the counterattack, and transition, the three up front, they have the ability to hurt any team. for the most part, we dealt with that ok, but we obviously conceded the two, but i thought the response to both was outstanding, we maintained our composure, played our football. in the second half, we were the better side and probably deserved to win. in the day's other premier league game, there was a 0—0 draw between everton and aston villa. the results means villa missed out on the chance to go level on points with leaders liverpool. they did find the net

in the first half, but alex moreno's goal was ruled out for offside after a four—minute var check. to golf now, and england's tommy fleetwood held his nerve to win the dubai invitational title with birdies on the final two holes to see off the challenge of rory mcilroy. fleetwood, who was the overnight leader, capitalised on a bogey by mcilroy on the 17th hole to finish on 19 under — one shot ahead of the world number two and south africa's thriston lawrence. it's been a really cool week. ifelt like i played better and better throughout the week. i had a great day yesterday and then today, playing with rory and coming down the stretch in contention and trying to win a golf tournament was really, really cool, and it has been nice being back in dubai for the start of the year. kenya's agnes ngetich became the first woman to run 10 kilometres in under 29 minutes when she won the valencia ibercaja road race on sunday.

she beat the previous world record by 28 seconds. her time was also better than the track world record for the same distance. ronnie 0'sullivan has won a record extending eighth masters snooker title at alexandra palace. the world number one had to come from 3—5 down against ali carter in the final. 0'sullivan eventually winning10—7. he becomes the oldest masters champion at the age of 48. i don't know, i've won this tournament on to be honest with you. ijust dug deep. i tried to play with a bit of freedom internet i just thought, just try and keep him honest, and if he is going to win it, he is going to have to win it, he is going to have to scrape me off the table, so ijust to scrape me off the table, so i just wanted to see to scrape me off the table, so ijust wanted to see if to scrape me off the table, so i just wanted to see if you to scrape me off the table, so ijust wanted to see if you had it at the end. let's just see

if he can get over the line, and that was my whole mindset. i was not even worried about frames, score — just keep playing, just keep playing and see what happens in. interesting winners speech. and finally — snooker fans have seen quite a few fluke shots over the past week at the masters tournament at alexandra palace. perhaps the best of the lot though came from one young player who pulled off this outrageous pot during sunday's final. as you can see it, it is quite an easy black tea party... laughter keep your head down. go on, have a go. —— black he potted. hold on, hold on! have a go. -- black he potted. hold on, hold on!— hold on, hold on! cheering laughter _ laughter what a shock, what a shot, what a shot. i cannot follow that, i cannot follow that! thought he was going to leave them hanging with the high—five

as well. that is it from us. you clean all the latest from the bc sport on the website or the bc sport on the website or the app, and the first from the australian open. from all of us here, goodbye here. hello. we have got a cold, wintry week of weather ahead. we may well see a bit of disruption down to the fact that we've got plenty of snow showers in the forecast, particularly towards the north, mainly across parts of scotland, in fact. fewer showers around further south. but it is going to be cold and we're going to see some sharp overnight frosts. could be some icy conditions around, too. cold weather down to the fact that low pressure is out towards the east of the uk, opening the doors for these cold winds to come in from the arctic, so i think wind chill will be a significant factor through the next couple of days. next few hours, more of those snow showers pack in, particularly

across the north of scotland. temperatures overnight are falling to —2 or —3 widely, even in our towns and cities — colder than that in the countryside. through monday, then, more snow showers across the northern half of scotland, gales up towards shetland still and some snow and icy conditions across northern ireland, so we have got yellow warnings in force here. could be the odd wintry shower around exposed parts of these irish sea coasts, perhaps around the east coast of england, down towards norfolk and the north york moors. temperatures for most of us about 2 to 5 degrees, but when you add on that wind—chill, it is going to feel bitterly cold. it'll feel more like —7 or even —8 across the north—east of scotland. as we continue through monday evening and overnight into tuesday, we're watching this area of low pressure, this weather system, which moves its way from west to east across the northern half of the uk. now, that could cause a bit of disruption on tuesday. tuesday morning, we're expecting snow to be quite persistent through the central belt of scotland, could be about 2 to 5 centimetres of snow here, pushing slowly across scotland. across the higher ground, there could be ten to even 20 centimetres of snow on tuesday. a mix of rain, sleet and snow for northern ireland

and for northern england, too. we've got some sleet, some snow over the higher ground. it looks drier with some sunshine further south. but tuesday, again, feels cold wherever you are. into the middle of the week, we're keeping a close eye on this area of low pressure. most of the computer models keep it over france, but we've got the cold air in place with those northerly winds across the uk. if this system's a bit further north, we could see some snow around southern counties of england for a time. but i think it will predominantly be heavy snow showers again for the north of scotland, northern ireland and around any of those coasts exposed to that northerly wind. it is going to feel cold again, not quite as windy, but temperatures only a few degrees above freezing. more wintry showers for many of us on thursday. perhaps a little milderfor some of us, though, by friday.
