hello and welcome to sportsday — coming up: ireland are looking to clinch the six nations title, but it's a tense finish at twickenham. tears ofjoy for the azzurri, italy celebrate a rare six ——six nations win in rome, beating scotland. arsenal are looking to head back to the top of the premier

league but they're not having at all their own way. it's all over for england's cricketers, a 4—1 test series defeat as they disintegrate in dharmashala inside three three days. teenager ollie bearman makes history by becoming the youngest briton to start an f1 race. and after a knockout win for anthonyjoshua, he's gunning for fury or usyk. i think they're both credible, i would love to fight them. we'll start with rugby union, because ireland, the reigning champions, are looking to clinch the six nations championship with a game to spare, they'll do that with a win over england at twickenham, it's been tight, but with a few

minutes to go they lead. we'll bring the result and show you some of that game when it's over. the partry won't be over in rome for some time — italy, the perennial wooden—spoon winners, are celebrating a huge win, they beat title chasing scotland 31—29 in rome, their first win at home in 11 years. scotland 31—29 in rome, they have already drawn against france this year and victory over the scots lifts them to fourth in the table. hugh ferris reports. for all the noise, for all the improvements, around both italy and scotland in this year's six nations, would either have much to shout about, its conclusion? victory in rome would have kept alive scotland's outside chance of winning the whole tournament, so two tries in the opening 12 minutes certainly helped. commentator:_ in the opening 12 minutes certainly helped. commentator: trinaldo two! it to their bite — helped. commentator: trinaldo two! it to their bite to — helped. commentator: trinaldo two! it to their bite to draw _ helped. commentator: trinaldo two! it to their bite to draw with _ helped. commentator: trinaldo two! it to their bite to draw with france - it to their bite to draw with france last time out, that afflict with flare... ~ . . ,

and i think that we showed all the work that we have the passion, even in the last few minutes, even, if you are tired, but it's not a problem, it's in our blood, so yes, we showed the people we have a passion. credit to them, they were good today, — credit to them, they were good today, are _ credit to them, they were good today, are part wasjust like, look at what _ today, are part wasjust like, look at what we — today, are part wasjust like, look at what we can do better, and i am sure there — at what we can do better, and i am sure there will be a lot out so that we can_ sure there will be a lot out so that we can do— sure there will be a lot out so that we can do better. i think on discipline. _ we can do better. i think on discipline, wasn't great, gave away a lot of— discipline, wasn't great, gave away a lot of penalties. there was accuracy— a lot of penalties. there was accuracy in there as well. no cons and missed — accuracy in there as well. no cons and missed breakdowns. so a lot of stuff in _ and missed breakdowns. so a lot of stuff in our— and missed breakdowns. so a lot of stuff in our control, but as i said earlier, — stuff in our control, but as i said earlier, credit to italy. italy are heading to their best finish in the championship. and was last kick of the england's marcus smith has dropped a goal to win it for england, 23 points to 22, so the

irish have been beaten, it will now go down to the last round of fixtures, ireland will look to still win the championship with victory over the scots in dublin. but england have pulled themselves right back into that as well. we will show you a little bit of what happened at twickenham later in the programme was up let's move on to the football. the last of today's five games in the premier league is under way, arsenal will move back to the top of the table for at least 2a hours if they beat brentford. declan rice gave them the lead with a header inside the first 20 minutes. but brentford responded before the break. arsenal goalkeeper aaron ramsdale took too much time on the ball — allowing yoane wissa to slide in and equalise on the stroke of half—time. they are back under way in the second half with the score still i—i. manchester united still have faint hopes of qualifying for the champions league after beating everton 2—0 at old trafford. they remain sixth, 8

points off the top 4. everton missed a string of chances and stay 16th, 5 points above the relegation zone. alex fletcher reports. change could be coming off the pitch at old trafford but erik ten hag was hoping for some on it. facing an everton side without a win in ten league games, they were gifted an early opportunity to take the lead. penalty! early opportunity to take the lead. penal ! �* ., ., , early opportunity to take the lead. penal! ., ., ,, ,, , penalty! bruno fernandes stepping up and makin: penalty! bruno fernandes stepping up and making no — penalty! bruno fernandes stepping up and making no mistakes— penalty! bruno fernandes stepping up and making no mistakes to _ penalty! bruno fernandes stepping up and making no mistakes to put - and making no mistakes to put himself on eight goals for the season. garnacha caused more problems before the break, skipping his way into the area, and puts down this time, this responsibility passed to marcus rashford for this one. but the same result, change the manager seem to get behind photo it's been 21 matches since dominic calvert—lewin ten score for everton, and he was this close to getting

himself back into the game, but his search for a goal goes on. for everton, tough afternoon leaves them looking over their shoulder, manchester united looking forward. really tough on everton, they created plenty, and after two league defeats in a row, united have now got that much needed win to keep them pleasing. you always have to fight for your points, and i think they have a very good style of play, very good good style of play, vei’y 9°°d structure, good style of play, very good structure, difficult to beat. also all the teams are struggling with them, so... but! all the teams are struggling with them, so... but i have to say created a lot of chances and we had very good counterattacks. i think overall we could have scored three or four goals and i thought we defended very well. same old, same old in recent weeks, we've _ same old, same old in recent weeks, we've got— same old, same old in recent weeks, we've got to — same old, same old in recent weeks, we've got to maintain that and be consistent. — we've got to maintain that and be consistent, and we are doing, but the truth — consistent, and we are doing, but

the truth is — consistent, and we are doing, but the truth is it's so important and currently— the truth is it's so important and currently we are not finding that. we had _ currently we are not finding that. we had the ten points taken away. i thought— we had the ten points taken away. i thought it _ we had the ten points taken away. i thought it was an unjust win for them, — thought it was an unjust win for them, similarto day thought it was an unjust win for them, similar to day to day. we've done _ them, similar to day to day. we've done so _ them, similar to day to day. we've done so many things right but we havent— done so many things right but we haven't found the goals. let's have a look at the other results in the premier league — sheffield united have lifted themselves off the bottom of the table but only by a point after they threw away a two goal lead at bournemouth. gustavo hamer and jack robinson for the blades, but the cherries, who had missed a first half penalty, pulled thmselves back into it. enes unal scored the equaliser in injury time and it finished 2—all. bournemouth stay 13th, 12 points above the relegation zone. luton are also in the bottom three but three points off safety after they scored an injury time equaliser at crystal palace. cauley woodrow headed home in the 96th minute for the i—all draw. jean phillippe matata had given palace the lead inside the first

fifteen minutes at selhurst park. palace stay 14th, eight points clear of luton and the bottom three. wolves beat fulham 2—1 at molyneux. rayan ait—nouri scored their first after half—time with nelson semedo's deflected shot forcing a tom cairney own goal. fulham pulled one back in injury time. wolves are eighth, just one place and one point off the european places. ipswich town missed the chance to reclaim the second automatic promotion spot in the championship as cardiff city scored two injury—time goals to snatch a stunning victory. ryan wintle scored with a deflected shot from close range five minutes into added time. then five minutes later, substitute callum o'dowda volleyed in from a flick—on at a corner. it marks an end to ipswich's six—match winning run, meaning they remain third in the table, trailing second—place leeds united — who won at sheffield wednesday last night — by one point. elsewhere, league leaders leicester were held to a 2—2 draw at hull city. there are still three points clear of leeds, though.

now, get this — neil warnock has left his role as aberdeen manager, the club announcing his departure less than an hour after he guided the side into the scottish cup semi—finals. they beat kilmarnock 3—1, by far his best result since taking over on an interim basis last month. he failed to win any of his six league games in charge, with his two victories coming in the cup. warnock leaves them 10th in the scottish premiership. the club, they say, are at an advanced stage in the search for a permamanent replacement. i only came to help them out and try and steady the ship. unfortunately we have not got the right results in the league but i thought i ought to try and get through the cup, and i know they are well on their way now to getting a new manager, i have been telling them now for the last couple of weeks, you've got to put forward now and try and get a new manager as quickly as possible, and thatis manager as quickly as possible, and that is what they're doing. so i

thought it was the right time, we decided in midweek that today was going to be the day, and i am glad i left on high, really. leicester city are the first club to make it into the semi—finals of the women's fa cup after beating liverpool 2—0 at prenton park. finland midfielderjutta rantala scored in each half to send the foxes into the last fourfor the first time. leicester had their assistant jennifer frost and first team coach jennifer frost and first team coach stephen kirby in the dugout, manager willie kirk was missing, with the club saying he's "assisting them with an internal process". elsewhere manchester united are four nil up against brighton in their quarterfinal. let's get back to our top story, the six nations, it still alive after the result at twickenham. it's just finished in last four or five minutes, it dropped goalfrom marcus smith in the final second securing a 22-22 smith in the final second securing a 22—22 win for england. ——a goalfrom marcys smith in the final seconds has

secured a win for england, 23—22. england scored the first try, a wonderful effort from ollie lawrence, and although that was the only score in the first half. four ireland penalties gave them a 12—8 lead at the break and the ireland wing james lowe stretched their lead early in the second half, touching down in the corner. england responded with a really slick move. ben earl with england's second try there. james lowe scored again to give the irish a two point lead, but then first marcus smith scored the winning goal, they have kept the championship alive, it all goes down to the final round of fixtures, the grand slam champions ireland still leads the championship but they will have to beat the scots in dublin. let's leave that now, we will have more football later in the programme, but let's have a look at

some of... some of the day's other sports stories for you now. andy murray is out of the indian wells tournament after being beaten in straight—sets by russian fifth seed andrey rublev in the second round. tour de france champion yonas vingergo looks set to win tirreno adriactico in italy. the dane won the penultimate stage by 26 seconds to stretch his overall lead to more than a minute. britain's tom pidcock finished fifth. fellow briton max poole crashed out and was taken to hospital. the olly murphy—trained go dante was on the right side of a photo—finish to deny faivoir in a thrilling conclusion to the imperial cup at sandown. ridden by sean bowen, the 5—1 favourite go dante won for the second time in three starts. he'll now head to next week's

cheltenham festival. it's hometime for england's test cricketers after losing the series against india 4—1. the series against india 4—1. they crumbled in the final test, bowled out for 195 in their second innings and beaten inside three days by an innings and 64 runs. the bbc�*s chief cricket wrier stephan shemilt spoke to me from dharamshala about england's defeat. the game was lost for england over the first 20 days, really, bowled out for 280, india posting that big 477 in out for 280, india posting that big a77 in reply, finally bowed out on saturday morning with that moment of history forjames anderson, taking history forjames anderson, taking his 700th wicket. —— bowled out. we knew at the start of the saturday it was going to turn out to be a—i, the thing england were looking for was a bit of grit with the bats to make india bat again, really glad it became apparent very quickly that it

wasn't going to happen, as they capitulated, really, in the face of ravichandran ashwin�*s of spin, they were worked out by him. jonny bairstow came out of the bit between his teeth in his hundredth test, he hit three sixes but was out for 39. so when ben stokes was bowled back at the stroke of lunch on the game was up, really, it took so rich to show any attitude, any stomach for the fight. selection, patience, how to play in these conditions. he made a very composed 8a, eked out some runs with the tale, when the game was already gone. so england beaten by an innings and 6a runs, comfortably really their worst performance of the tour. it comfortably really their worst performance of the tour. it seems a lona time performance of the tour. it seems a long time ago _ performance of the tour. it seems a long time ago now, _ performance of the tour. it seems a long time ago now, those _ performance of the tour. it seems a long time ago now, those heady - performance of the tour. it seems a l long time ago now, those heady days of the first test. i mean, we spoke about how difficult it is to go to india. in the cold light of day...

it's just never india. in the cold light of day... it'sjust never going to india. in the cold light of day... it's just never going to be able to work, england of his they had their moments, they we saw some good bowling performances as well put up orjust not enough of them.— orjust not enough of them. you're riaht to orjust not enough of them. you're right to highlight _ orjust not enough of them. you're right to highlight that _ orjust not enough of them. you're right to highlight that win - orjust not enough of them. you're right to highlight that win in - orjust not enough of them. you're right to highlight that win in the i right to highlight that win in the first test, because before that game in hyderabad, the england captain ben stokes said, to win just one test match, in a series in india, which feel like an achievement, and that's because of india because �*s proud home record, visit their 17 successive home series win, spanning 12 years, back to 2012, and in all of that time india have not lost more than one test in a series. when england won in hyderabad it felt like they had the opportunity to do something really special, and over the next three test matches, england had chances in all of them. but there was a real pinch points where they had the opportunity to take

control of each of those games and they missed them. the fifth test, when it arrived, itjust felt like culmination of india chipping away at england over those three test matches, when india's superior skill, superior experience and know—how in these conditions just completely overwhelmed them. england had chances, they did have the opportunity to do something special, and in those crucial moments, yes, it was an eagerness with the bat thatis it was an eagerness with the bat that is probably made them come unstuck and denied them the chance of pulling off that special result here in india. let's now hear from both camps. there was an acceptance from the england captain that they simply haven't been good enough since that victory in the first test. obviously we came here with high hopes, we were confident about what we could achieve out here, and obviously it started out well but losing the series for one, you know,

notjust myself but i think the team as well, we are man enough to say we have been completely outplayed in the last four games, you know, and whenever we managed to wrestle back a type of momentum with the ball or bat, india were always able to then put it back onto us. so looking back at the series, i think that is where sort of test matches after the first one or one and lost. the fact that, you know, we lost the first test _ the fact that, you know, we lost the first test match, and had to bounce back from _ first test match, and had to bounce back from that, had to do it with slightly— back from that, had to do it with slightly different team than the one we probably expected to start the series— we probably expected to start the series with, may be a few months ago. _ series with, may be a few months ago. and — series with, may be a few months ago, and then to be able to bounce back from — ago, and then to be able to bounce back from that, it does make you feel really— back from that, it does make you feel really proud and... inexperience wasn't in their howling, _ inexperience wasn't in their bowling, it was in the batting, they had the _ bowling, it was in the batting, they had the ascendancy with the bat at that point— had the ascendancy with the bat at that point in time, we need to respond. _ that point in time, we need to respond, and our experts was in the bowling, _ respond, and our experts was in the bowling, and we won those contests.

—— our experience. in the last half hour max verstappen has won the saudi arabian grand prix. the dutchman wasn't seriously challenged on his way to the chequered flag injeddah. but despite that it was a notable race as british teenager ollie bearman made an unexpected and impressive debut for ferrari. nick parrott reports. the off—track drama doesn't seem to be stopping max verstappen from dominating from the one. to find something different, you had to look back to 12. an 18—year—old was thrown in at the deep end at one of the sport's toughest tracks. the race ended for months stroke, the canadian shaken up, and some drivers use the safety period to get new tyres. lando norris took first after the restart, but not for long, as

max verstappen took over. once again, verstappen was untouchable, beating team—mate sergio perez with ferrari's charles leclerc third. staying in saudi arabia, anthonyjoshua made very light work of former ufc champion francis ngannou in their heavyweight fight in riyadh overnight. remember, this was ngannou's second pro—fight after going the distance against tyson fury last year. joshua knocked him down in the first round and again early in the second. a dazed ngannou rose to his feet, but was stunned moments later, as the referee halted the contest. ngannou appeared to be out before he even hit the canvas, and required medical treatment. so what next forjoshua? talk has inevitably turned to tyson fury and olexander usyk, the current world heavyweight champions who are due to face each other in a four belt unification bout in may. why not fight them both? you know, i mean, it shouldn't really be one of

the other, i should have the opportunity to compete with them both, and also, notjust those two, there are so many other fighters i want to compete with, but since you're asking me about the winner, i think both of them are very credible fighters and i would love the opportunity to face them at some stage. let's return to the premier league. the game of the weekend is at anfield where title rivals liverpool and manchester city go head to head tomorrow. ben croucher has more. it might be too early to call it a title decider but there is no downplaying the importance of the report against manchester city, 3:a5, sunday at anfield, question for you, 3:a5, sunday at anfield, question foryou, michael 3:a5, sunday at anfield, question for you, michael brown, form city midfielder, are your own side the favourites? it midfielder, are your own side the favourites?— midfielder, are your own side the favourites? it such a difficult one, isn't it? when _ favourites? it such a difficult one, isn't it? when it's _ favourites? it such a difficult one, isn't it? when it's anfield, - favourites? it such a difficult one, isn't it? when it's anfield, when l isn't it? when it's anfield, when the crowd is behind you, obviously, liverpool have a brilliant record at anfield, psychologically, ithink the players know they are under pressure, going to anfield. they

will feel confident, like there are no better place, better position. injury is obviously a real worry for liverpool. —— like they're in a better place, better position. i think it's a slight advantage, slight, to manchester city full to what you think of trent alexander—arnoldsacraments in the build—up to this this one? alexander-arnoldsacraments in the build-up to this this one?— build-up to this this one? slightly stranue in build-up to this this one? slightly strange in a _ build-up to this this one? slightly strange in a player— build-up to this this one? slightly strange in a player saying - strange in a player saying liverpool's wins and successes mean more than city's. —— what do you think of his comments in the build—up? he think of his comments in the build-hp?— think of his comments in the build-u? ~ ., , ., �*, ., build-up? he knows what he's doing, wh would build-up? he knows what he's doing, why would he — build-up? he knows what he's doing, why would he do _ build-up? he knows what he's doing, why would he do that? _ build-up? he knows what he's doing, why would he do that? where - build-up? he knows what he's doing, why would he do that? where is - build-up? he knows what he's doing, why would he do that? where is the i why would he do that? where is the control? not sure what he's getting from saying that about the supporters, etc, what it means to them, how city have gone about their business. i think what we would say is that when i was in istanbul, and that travel came, that was, and you talk about what it meant to the supporters, what it meant to the whole football club, let me tell you, it was an incredible evening, an incrediblejoy, delight, so they have never been in that position,

they can't actually judge have never been in that position, they can't actuallyjudge that, trent alexander—arnold can't make the decision, can he? stand trent alexander-arnold can't make the decision, can he?— trent alexander-arnold can't make the decision, can he? and of course another trouble _ the decision, can he? and of course another trouble again _ the decision, can he? and of course another trouble again this _ the decision, can he? and of course| another trouble again this season... it's on! if another trouble again this season... it's on! ., ., ~' another trouble again this season... it's on! ., ., it's on! if we look at the two men in the middle _ it's on! if we look at the two men in the middle here. _ it's on! if we look at the two men in the middle here. this - it's on! if we look at the two men in the middle here. this has - it's on! if we look at the two men j in the middle here. this has been it's on! if we look at the two men l in the middle here. this has been a rivalry for the ages in the premier league, jurgen klopp and pep guardiola. how do you think that compares to managerial rivalries we are seen in years gone by? fagerson or something — are seen in years gone by? fagerson or something like _ are seen in years gone by? fagerson or something like that _ are seen in years gone by? fagerson or something like that is _ are seen in years gone by? fagerson or something like that is what - or something like that is what you're going to say, but i think it'sjust you're going to say, but i think it's just looking you're going to say, but i think it'sjust looking at the you're going to say, but i think it's just looking at the to people who have a figurehead for one of the title races, hundred points, the report is getting picked, champions league, but we have seen endless trophies from the two of them, i think itjust shows it's a brilliant one to look at history, what we witnessed in this premier league, whether you don't support liverpool or manchester city, you've got to impress with what these to guys have delivered, the entertainment value, the games, the relentless sort of performances they've got from their staff and players and what they have delivered for supporters worldwide, i think it's a fitting moment. and

hopefully, maybe not in this one, my be slightly looking towards the blue half, but hopefullyjurgen klopp ends on a positive note because he's been brilliant. h0??? ends on a positive note because he's been brilliant.— been brilliant. how much is this rivalry been _ been brilliant. how much is this rivalry been characterised - been brilliant. how much is this rivalry been characterised by . been brilliant. how much is this i rivalry been characterised by these two men in recent years?- rivalry been characterised by these two men in recent years? these two are the leaders, _ two men in recent years? these two are the leaders, the _ two men in recent years? these two are the leaders, the driving - two men in recent years? these two are the leaders, the driving force, . are the leaders, the driving force, that demand everything from these players, the detail that is given to them, but i would also say, you know, we looked at the top and we also say that managers are the ones who have driven that success but these players, for me, also the ones that are demanding more from these two. so each year, each different single week, what's next us? saying, how'd we get better, how we improve our performances? so full credit, it's all around these two football club is glad it's going to be set, no morejurgen klopp, i think he interviewed so well, stilljoking, only these last couple of days, talking about players in recruitment, he said, i'm not going to be there, i am retired! and

recruitment, he said, i'm not going to be there, iam retired! and i just think it's great. and there's more to come from jurgen klopp in the next few weeks, but he's got one trophy in the bag, that will help, and ease the situation. but i am at the game, i cannot wait to get to this game, see the atmosphere, jurgen klopp is incredible, we know that, just hope we see a real special day. should be a fantastic game, as it stands, liverpool still lead at the top of the premier league because arsenal are being held by brentford at the emirates stadium. it is 1—1, but of a commotion going on there, we work out what that is all about with sports day at half seven, our top story that will be england's remarkable win in the six nations that's kept the championship alive, marcus smith of the drop goal, the last kick of the game at twickenham. we will have reaction at half seven, see you then.

hello. sunshine amounts have varied across the uk today. some areas got stuck with a lot of clouds and outbreaks of rain, but for others the cloud did break to reveal some sunshine. that was how it looked for one of our weather watchers in shetland. on the earlier satellite picture, you can see this swirl of cloud in the centre of which lies an area of low pressure that is dominating our weather right now. it will continue to do so. and because we are on the northern flank of that low, we have an easterly wind that winds staying pretty strong across northern areas through tonight, the wind easing further south. we will see outbreaks of rain pushing northwards, particularly across parts of england and wales. overnight lows generally between 3—9 celsius. so tomorrow, here's our area of low pressure still with us. but notice big gaps between the isobars in southern areas. so the winds here relatively light. the isobars squeezed together further north. so it will stay quite blustery.

and when you're exposed to that breeze, particularly across the east coast of scotland, it is going to feel decidedly chilly. many areas will see outbreaks of rain at times, but not all the time. certainly not a huge amount of sunshine for mother's day. best chance of brightness i think will be in the far north, also for parts of south and west wales, the south—west of england, and the channel islands. the winds will be lighter than they have been today in the south, temperatures in the south in any brightness, 12—13 celsius, but exposed to that breeze, eastern scotland, only 5—6 celsius. that breeze still with us on monday, that easterly blowing in towards, say, the eastern side of scotland. but that wind generally easing off monday will bring a lot of cloud. there'll be some bits and pieces of rain towards the south east of england, also northern ireland, some bright or sunny spells and again, temperatures 6—11 or maybe 12 celsius. and for tuesday, the change is really only taking place very slowly. it won't be as windy on tuesday because of that. there could be some mist and fog patches through the morning. quite a lot of cloud, some sunny spells. i think many places will be dry. temperatures between 8—12 celsius.

but the weather will change in terms of the feel of things, certainly as we head through the middle parts of the week, because with areas of low pressure passing to the west or the north west of us, we will develop winds from the southwest. and that will bring certainly a milder feel for midweek onwards temperatures getting up into the middle teens celsius. but it will often be cloudy, and there'll be some rain at times.
