6:36 pm
it was a tough, tough situation to manage, needing to go for the game at the same time, but i feel we could go really well in the second half. once again we showed some character, there for us. they got a point, like you said, run to three, we one, but that's what it is to be viable as long as we do well. there were loads — viable as long as we do well. there were loads of _ viable as long as we do well. there were loads of moments _ viable as long as we do well. there were loads of moments in - viable as long as we do well. there were loads of moments in the - viable as long as we do well. there were loads of moments in the game when _ were loads of moments in the game when we _ were loads of moments in the game when we are under pressure, and made it really— when we are under pressure, and made it really good, and in this phase, i think— it really good, and in this phase, i think at— it really good, and in this phase, i think at this — it really good, and in this phase, i think at this moment, at the end i had the _ think at this moment, at the end i had the feeling we were close to the second _ had the feeling we were close to the second after a brilliant corner, so maybe _ second after a brilliant corner, so maybe a — second after a brilliant corner, so maybe a little bit disappointed, but the point _ maybe a little bit disappointed, but the point is to play. everton have gone 12 games without a win in the premier league which is a club record. they thought they'd earned a draw at bournemouth but captain seamus coleman chested the ball into his own net in injury time to hand the cherries the 2—1 win.
6:37 pm
they should be safe now but everton are just three points above the relegation zone ididn't i didn't come into it thinking this was a walk in the park, trust me, but when things go against you outside of your control, the ten points of course and the referee today i so personally that's a penalty, maybe you will disagree, but the way the game is at the minute i can see how it's not. they are big moments when things are going against you, they're really important moments, and we can't get on the right side of that, but we can do is control our own performance, and that's what we didn't do. the second goal, that just cannot happen. we didn't do. the second goal, that just cannot happen.— didn't do. the second goal, that just cannot happen. we played the name we just cannot happen. we played the game we had _ just cannot happen. we played the game we had to — just cannot happen. we played the game we had to play, _ just cannot happen. we played the game we had to play, they - just cannot happen. we played the game we had to play, they have i just cannot happen. we played the game we had to play, they have to bil game we had to play, they have to big for— game we had to play, they have to big for the — game we had to play, they have to big for the set pieces, will put pressure — big for the set pieces, will put pressure on but i think they were quite _ pressure on but i think they were quite smart not to make mistakes almost _ quite smart not to make mistakes almost until the end of the game, and i_ almost until the end of the game, and i think— almost until the end of the game,

6:39 pm
we knew we had to defend and sometimes block, we were going to have to defend for our lives at times, but they were able to do that, and as a group, they should be so proud of themselves. we that, and as a group, they should be so proud of themselves.— that, and as a group, they should be so proud of themselves. we were not an aressive so proud of themselves. we were not aggressive enough — so proud of themselves. we were not aggressive enough in _ so proud of themselves. we were not aggressive enough in open _ so proud of themselves. we were not aggressive enough in open play, - so proud of themselves. we were not aggressive enough in open play, notl aggressive enough in open play, not aggressive _ aggressive enough in open play, not aggressive enough in open play, not aggressive enough in open play, not aggressive enough in defence of set pieces _ aggressive enough in defence of set pieces. that is the thing that we need _ pieces. that is the thing that we need to— pieces. that is the thing that we need to realise is we have to be competitive. it's not about only to work. _ competitive. it's not about only to work. it's— competitive. it's not about only to work, it's about to evolve and develop — work, it's about to evolve and develop some areas in our world group. _ develop some areas in our world group. in — develop some areas in our world group, in ourteam, their can group, in our team, their can provide— group, in our team, their can provide in— group, in ourteam, their can provide in this type of moment. sheffield united are still bottom but what a game at bramhall lane, 3—3 with fulham getting an injury time equaliser aston villa are looking to move back above totenham into fourth. i—o v wolves.

6:41 pm
that's how the bottom looks, draws for sheffield united and burnley but both are still cut adrift. luton slipping into the bottom three on goal difference below forest. everton are still in danger falling to that late defeat at bournemouth. rangers are back on top of the scottish premiership after a 3—1 win over hibernian at ibrox. james tavernier, cyriel dessers and rabbi matondo the scorers. celtic can replace them at the top with a win at bottom club livingston tomorrow. here are the rest of the day's results aberdeen beat ross county 2—1. the games between hearts and kilmarnock and motherwell and st mirren both finished i—i, while dundee won 2—1 at stjohnstone. confirmation of rangers result there. it's the old firm derby next sunday. manchester city have moved three points clear of chelsea at the top of the women's super league. they beat liverpool 4—1 at prenton park. lauren hemp and jess park both scored before the league's top scorer khadija shaw made it 3—0 in eight first—half minutes. shaw got another early in the second

6:43 pm
their chances. hooker ellis martin had the third try of the match. scotland through the power of their forwards don't like once again nelson couldn't add to the school board. france were far from their best, squandering opportunities there would normally take. 5—3 at half—time. after the interval scotland find themselves constantly on the back foot. molly wright had barely been on the pitch in place of martin when she went down hurt. there were several marrying treatment worrying minutes, though she was able to watch the rest of the match from the bench. france took advantage.— the match from the bench. france took advantage. that's what happens when france — took advantage. that's what happens when france click. _ took advantage. that's what happens when france click. instead _ took advantage. that's what happens when france click. instead of - when france click. instead of runnina when france click. instead of running away _ when france click. instead of running away with _ when france click. instead of running away with it, - when france click. instead of running away with it, they i when france click. instead of l running away with it, they kept coming up against stubborn resistance. the 80 minutes are up before france produced another

6:47 pm
found high levels of e.coli. rowers were told to stay out of the water. cambridge went clear in the men's race and stretched out a lead. they put in so much through four miles. some barely had the strength to finish. they won by 10 seconds, but oxford had an explanation. we've had a few guys go down pretty badly with the e.coli strain. so, i mean, this morning i was throwing up. it would have been ideal not to have so much poo in the water. but, you know, that's not to take away from cambridge. they were a talented crew. i don't know if we would have had a chance to get them, even if we'd all been on form. so it's no way to make excuses. the women's boat race was close until it changed on a moment. oxford, i'm warning you, oxford. that stern word from the umpire was to stop the boats colliding. oxford fell back and cambridge powered on to chiswick. it's their seventh straight win and the men's fifth in six years. but what did change this year was the team's celebration.
6:48 pm
by tradition, the coxes get thrown in the river. but this year on the thames, they're staying out of the water. joe lynskey, bbc news. catalans dragons have moved to second in the super league table after beating warrington wolves 32—24 they had led 18—0 at one point. warrington recovered but dragons won relatively comfortably in the end — tom johnstone with two tries. it means the french side are level on points with leaders st helens but are second only on points difference. let's have a quick look at some of the other stories today the punjab kings lost their second successive game in the indian premier league. they were chasing 200 to beat lucknow super giants. an opening century partnership gave them a chance but after jonny bairstow went, the scoring slowed down and they fell 21 runs short after starting the day second overall, punctures on stage eight

i'll be back with another at 7:30pm. there has been another goal villa park, villa taking on walls, they are now 2—0 up. it looks like villa will return to force in the premier league. that's all for now. hello. we've had some sunshine — not a bad day overall, just a few showers here and there. i think easter sunday is going to be a little more overcast, particularly across england and closer to the north sea coast. quite a chilly breeze off the north sea with some drizzle at times. now, the satellite picture shows that gap in the weather that's over us right now.
6:57 pm
so things set fair for the moment. but this thicker cloud towards the east will shroud the uk during the course of sunday, particularly eastern areas of the uk. now, through the course of tonight, yes, there's a bit of rain in the forecast for some southwestern areas, perhaps just around the irish sea and into northern ireland. but the bulk of the uk should have predominantly clear and dry weather. chilly in the north of scotland, a touch of frost and some mist and fog forming, particularly across central parts of england. so the morning is looking bright for many of us, particularly across the north and the west of the uk. a few showers there in northern ireland, but then this thick cloud invades off the north sea, a chilly breeze, fleeting rain possible from parts of the southeast through east anglia, lincolnshire and really all along that north sea coast. the best of the sunshine will be out towards the west tomorrow around the irish sea, southwestern scotland, northern ireland, the western isles. and then sunday night into monday, a weather front moves in from the south. this is going to be more substantial
6:58 pm
rain, a more prolonged spell of rain to come for many of us on easter monday. really not looking particularly pretty across england and wales. your best bet for fine weather is the north of northern ireland, also northern and western scotland away from that weather front, temperatures around 9 degrees in aberdeen, but in the south, despite the cloud and the rain still getting up to m, though, i don't think it's particularly going to feel like it. and then the outlook for the week ahead will see a series of low pressures aligning themselves up in the atlantic. heading our way, one weatherfront after the other, after the other. and that basically spells rain. so whether you're checking the website or looking at the app, an indication here with these rain symbols that the weather is going to be predominantly unsettled. rain at times, certainly possible almost anywhere in the uk. and before i go, there'sjust a quick message that british summer time begins tonight. bye— bye.
