in straight sets to win a second indian wells title. hello. it's been a thrilling weekend of quarter—final games in the fa cup, with the most dramatic match needing a 120th minute goal to separate two of the biggest clubs in the world. manchester united eventually beat rivals liverpool 4—3. patrick gearey has the details from old trafford. this place old trafford has seen some games over the years but that was right up there. an fa cup quarter—final to live on in history. where to start? manchester united, many people's underdogs, started brighter and went ahead through scott mctominay

from close range early on. they might have added to the lead, but instead liverpool turned it around before the break. alexis mac allister, a deflected strike, and mo salah made it 2—1 liverpool at half—time. it stayed that way until the final minutes, when antony squeezed in an equaliser for united. into extra time, we were just getting started. harvey elliott made it 3—2 liverpool, another deflected strike. marcus rashford brought united back into it, 3—3, and we were waiting for penalties when with almost the final attack, amad diallo squeezed in the winner. 4-3. he was actually sent off in the celebrations, but that was a footnote as united's hopes of silverware this season live on, they face coventry city of the championship in the semifinal. after what happened here, they will feel in the fa cup this might be their year.

joy for united, but disappointment for liverpool. let's hear now from both managers, starting with erik ten haag, who believes this fa cup result could be a major turning point in their season. the first 35 minutes was the best i have seen from my team this season, in and out of possession. the last ten minutes and also after half—time, we dropped a level and liverpool is a very good team. they took over. but then finally, we changed our style. the system, especially. from that moment, we took a better initiative. we believed in it. we created chances and we scored goals. the team showed resilience, determination to win this game. we have had so many setbacks so i am really proud of the team, not only in this game but the whole season. we have so many setbacks. of course, when it's manchester united against liverpool, one of the world's best

football matches and this is happening, i think this is historical. they had a really good start in the game, we didn't. we needed a bit of time, but we adapted well and then we were outstanding. the goals we scored were outstanding. the second half, the way we played was outstanding. we have to finish the game off. that's obviously the criticism, the weak point. and so we left the door open, only one goal up. it's clear the opponent believes, the crowd helps them obviously. so 2—2, 3—2, 3—3, and in the end we lose it. i cannot ask for more. the boys gave everything. the start was not great, and then our decision—making wasn't great, could've found a better player but how they played in moments was absolutely exceptional. you have to accept the result,

that is what we do, obviously. chelsea are heading to wembley again after they beat ten—man leicester city 4—2 at stamford bridge thanks to two stoppage—time goals. chelsea were 2—0 ahead at half—time before letting their lead slip with leicester city coming back to 2—2, but after leicester's callum doyle was sent off, the championship side were eventually made to pay with goals in the 92nd and 98th minutes, giving chelsea a 4—2 win. that is football and that is the beauty of the fa cup and we are involved in the fa cup. yes, of course, i think that first of all we really deserved the qualification for the semi—final and we got that. the team kept calm until the end and that is why the end was 4—2. i'm so happy to go to wembley for the semi—final. and the draw has been made for the semi—finals.

coventry will play manchester united. manchester city will meet chelsea. those ties will be played at wembley on the weekend of april 20th and 21st. west ham had two goals disallowed for handball as they drew 1—1 with aston villa in the day's only premier league match. after a big defeat for tottenham in the race for the top four on saturday, villa are now three points clear in fourth place. west ham stay in seventh. mikail antonio scored and had a second goal ruled out. there were 104 minutes in the game after an injury time winnerfor west ham was taken off the board following a lengthy var review to the disappointment of the west ham manager, david moyes. it's not gone for us. not a lot we could do. we had two this week, one against freiburg, and one in midweek, didn't go for us. four handballs this week have gone against us. antonio is making a clear effort to pull in his hands,

but the rule is any touch off the arm, it's going to be disallowed. well, that is what var do, we can't do anything. bundesliga leaders bayer leverkusen beat hosts freiburg 3—2 on sunday to return to being ten points clear at the top of the table, edging themselves closer to a first ever league title. florian wirtz put the visitors, who are unbeaten across all competitions this season, in front after two minutes with a scintillating solo run, before ritsu doan�*s shot in the 10th minute drew freiburg level. patrik schick flicked the ball into the back of the net of the net in the 53rd minute, giving bayer leverkusen a two—goal cushion which should have been enough for the thre points but there was a nervy ending when yannik keitel scored a late goalfor freiburg. final score freiburg 2, bayer leverkeusen 3. there are many reasons. taking a little bit too long. but the main is we have a good team. players are showing

great mentality. they have the desire, the hunger to keep going. we don't want to stop. robert lewandowski inspired barcelona to a 3—0 triumph at atletico madrid on sunday to keep their faint la liga title hopes alive. lewandowski set up goals forjoao felix and fermin lopez either side of scoring himself to put barcelona into second place, eight points behind leaders real madrid. elsewhere there were wins for rayo vallecano, villareal, almeria and celta vigo. in italy, inter milan have a 14—point lead at the top of serie a after their 1—1 draw against napoli. ac milan consolidated second place beating verona 3—1, afterjuventus were held by genoa, while fiorentina's match at atalanta was postponed after the club's general manager giuseppe "joe" barone was taken ill. world number one iga swiatek powered past greece's maria sakkari to claim her second indian wells title.

break down in the first set before coming back to win it on a tie—break. the second set was far more comfortable, with the 20—year—old taking it 6—1 to successfully retain the title he won 12 months ago. it's alcaraz�*s first title since winning wimbledon last year. golf, and the world number one scottie scheffler has made history by successfully retaining his players�* championship title after a dramatic final round at sawgrass. the american staged a remarkable comeback on sunday, coming from five shots behind, as a final round 64 saw him finish on 20—under par. he made six birdies and this superb eagle. fellow americans xander schauffele, brian harman and wyndham clark all needed a birdie on the 18th to force a play—off, but they all fell short to hand scheffler the title. the world number one becomes the first player in the tournament's 50—year history to win back—to—back players championhip titles.

clearly in—form before the masters, which is coming up very soon. you can get all the latest sports news at from the bbc sport app, orfrom our website — that's bbc.com/sport. from me and the rest of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. hello there. we're into some much milder feeling air now with temperatures in the mid—teens quite widely on sunday with a wet start to the day for some of us. but we saw some sunny spells emerging such as here in nottinghamshire, and there's more sunshine on offer as we head through monday — it's a similar looking day. for the vast majority of us, it should stay dry, some low cloud, mist and murk to begin with, but then it will brighten up quite nicely. but overnight there are some weather fronts just gradually clearing eastwards. a lot of the showery rain

is starting to fizzle out on the easterly track. and this is how we'll start off the day on monday. temperatures between five and eight degrees. it's a cooler start than yesterday morning across much of england and wales. but still temperatures in mid to high single figures, so mild for the time of year. lots of dry weather around these areas of cloud just pushing further eastwards, the rain fizzling out. a lot of dry weather, some sunshine, clouds thickening from the west through the afternoon. and there will be some rain across northern ireland for the second half of the day, too. a brisk south—westerly wind blowing, particularly for irish sea coasts. and it's still mild, its warm but not quite as warm as on sunday, perhaps temperatures 11—16 celsius. and there's more rain on monday night. it's just dragging its way further eastwards as we head through the night and into tuesday. so tuesday we'll see this front sinking southwards and eastwards bringing more cloud across east anglia, the far south east of england. showery outbreaks of rain pushing east across scotland. but for many central areas there'll be some bright spells and perhaps a scattering of showers, too. it's turning cooler now

in the north and the west. but still, that mild air hangs on further south and east, 16 degrees celsius here. and you can see that quite nicely on the air mass chart here with that milder feeling air, still the south—westerly wind, colderfeeling conditions taking hold across the north and the west. now, as we go through wednesday, we're going to start to see this wave develop on this front, and that's going to bring us perhaps some further outbreaks of rain, but still a lot of uncertainty regarding just where this rain is likely to be. it could clear away from eastern scotland towards the end of the day. and i think many northwestern areas could stay largely dry, too. look, it's still very mild across the south east of england, 17 degrees celsius perhaps here. as we go through thursday though, we're likely to see some more rain, especially in the south of england and wales. and it could turn a bit colder by friday. bye—bye.
