marcus rashford scoring his first goal since april. spurs got their second equaliserjust after halftime — 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 to see for everyone, not the only man united fans but all over, because there was so much tempo. they are a good team on the counter—attack, 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 goals, 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

of freedom and i just thought just try and keep andy honest and if he is going to win it, he is going to have to scrape me off the table, so ijust wanted to see if he had it at the end. let's just see if he can get over the line, and that was my whole mindset. so, i was not even worried about frames, score — just keep playing, just keep playing and see what happens. interesting. and finally, snookerfans 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 he potted. laughter keep your head down. go on, have a go. hold on, hold on! cheering laughter

what a shot, what a shot, what a shot! i cannot follow that, i cannot follow that! i'v e i've thought it was going to leave them hanging with a high five as well. you can get all the latest sports news at from the bbc sport app orfrom our website — that's bbc.com/sport — where you can get all the news from the first round of tennis�*s australian open. from me and the rest of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. 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
1:54 am
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 two to five 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 northeast 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 two to five centimetres of snow here, pushing slowly across scotland.
1:55 am
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 milder for some of us, though, by friday.
