and in most campaigns that would have an offer an automatic promotion. they had very few chances and this was a day where they failed to show up day where they failed to show up really. they hit the crossbar that was about the best for them. there will be questionnaire for the manager who came in last summer when the team arejust who came in last summer when the team are just been relegated from the top flight. his only task was to get them back up. many fans leading the stadium behind us desperately disappointed with what they saw from the team today. southhampton are heading back up southhampton are heading back up the first attempt. a win and a promotion that earns the club at least £140 million in revenue, significantly more if they stay in the premier league next season. that is thanks to that winner from adam armstrong and those other playing that make fine margins that make this so enthralling. i make fine margins that make this so enthralling.— this so enthralling. i had a feelin: this so enthralling. i had a feeling that _ this so enthralling. i had a feeling that they - this so enthralling. i had a feeling that they would . this so enthralling. i had a | feeling that they would win this so enthralling. i had a - feeling that they would win but it was— feeling that they would win but it was tense at the end. ten minutes_ it was tense at the end. ten minutes about time and it was scary— minutes about time and it was scary but _ minutes about time and it was scary but we won so it was good _ scary but we won so it was good i_ scary but we won so it was aood. scary but we won so it was ood. , ' ' ' good. i saw them first in 1971 and this is —

1:50 am
the streets of manchester. fireworks lit up the gloomy manchester sky. some players on their open top bus interacting with a fairfew their open top bus interacting with a fair few thousand fans at the bottom of the main forest ever goes north to south. it is been quite a spectacle here and an incredible season that fell flat at wembley. we did not see the defeat coming, their first domestic defeat since before christmas. what we have seen this season is the way that manchester city gets that momentum around march and april and may and they held off a very, very good and improving arsenal side who will surely come again. the difference was five points last season, two points this season. it has been an enthralling premier league season and it is that unprecedented, four in a road that manchester city have been celebrating here. something similar in germany where bayer leverkusen have been celebrating their historic double of bundesliga

and german cup with their fans at their bayarena stadium. just a warning that these pictures contain flashing lights. after securing the dfb pokal yesterday with a 1—0 win against second division side kaiserlautern, xabi alonso's team were given a hero's welcome at their home ground as they paraded both trophies they won in season that saw them go a record 51 games unbeaten and in which they only lost once — in the europa league final. this charles leclerc led from start to finish to win the monaco grand prix. the ferrari driver is from the principality and claimed victory in his home race for the first time. leclerc led from start to finish with 0scar piastri in the mclaren behind him and leclerc�*s ferrari team—mate carlos sainz rounded out the podium. championship leader max verstappen finished sixth. in fact the top ten in qualifying finished the race in the same positions. that was despite an opening lap crash that meant the race had to be restarted. a lengthy delay followed the collision between the red bull of sergio perez and the haas of kevin magnussen
1:52 am
which resulted in a red flag and brought an end to both drivers' races almost before it had begun. magnussen�*s team—mate nico hulkenburg also saw his race finished by the incident. world champion francesco bagnaia claimed victory in motogp's catalunya grand prix to close in on championship leaderjorge martin. after crashing out of yesterday's sprint race bagnaia bounced back to snatch victory in the main event. the italian passed martin with five laps to go and his third victory of the season cuts the gap to the spaniard to 39 points. third seed carlos alcaraz was one of the first to play on day one of the french open at roland garros and among the quickest to make round two. the spaniard is on the hunt for a first title at roland garros and improve on his run to the semis last year. he won his opening round match against qualifierjj wolf of the us, dropping just 4 games on the way to victory. honestly i had a low expectation coming into this
1:53 am
tournament but after the practice week and after this first round confidence is higher and my expectation is probably higher after the match. but let's see. andy murray has been knocked out of what's very likely to be his final french open in the first round. he was beaten in straight sets by another former grand slam champion stan wawrinka at roland garros. murray has said he doesn't expect to carry on playing much beyond this summer. four—time grand slam winner naomi 0saka is through to the second round after beating lucia bronzetti in three sets. she's never been past the third round at roland garros elsewhere, 2017 winner jelena 0stapenko is through after beating jacqueline cristian. for a third time, beating sunrisers hyderabad in a one—sided final in chennai. mitchell starc proved why he'd become the most expensive player in ipl history. the australian fast bowler
1:54 am
providing an opening spell that helped the knight riders bowl their opponents out for just 113, the lowest total in the history of the competition's finals. the kolkata batters then rattled off their target injust over 10 overs to win by 8 wickets. it has been an enjoyable nine way — nine weeks with these guys. i'll be back they want me back and i am gratefulfor the opportunity. it's been great to see the success of the club and the success of many of the players. i think everyone has contributed through the season. players and staff. meanwhile england women's second one day international against pakistan was abandoned after heavy rain fell at taunton. pakistan won the toss and chose to bat first but they only managed six overs before the weather turned. england won the first match of the series and the two teams now head to chelmsford for the third and final match on wednesday.

thank you for watching. hello. thanks forjoining me. the weather, this bank holiday weekend has been a little hit and miss. this is what we had earlier on during the course of saturday. storms breaking out quite widely across england, parts of wales, some across the irish sea as well, and outbreaks of rain in scotland. now further showers are expected not just on bank holiday monday, but indeed the rest of the week. temperatures will be near normal, nothing spectacular. but at least by the end of the week, it does look as though these low pressures should finally pull away as we see high pressure building. but the winds will still
1:57 am
come in from the north. so there's certainly no major warm up in the forecast. ok, let's have a look at the forecast then for the short term. so by the end of the night through the morning, we will have had some clearer weather in the south, further north, always more cloud and some showers first thing. and these are the temperatures around 7am, typically double figures in most of our major towns and cities. so clouds will be bubbling up through the morning. there'll be plenty of sunshine in most areas right from the word go. but storms will also develop, particularly across northern and eastern parts of scotland. now the showers will be very hit and miss. as far as the temperatures go. no real change compared to what we've had in the last few days. so typically mid or high teens, a little on the cool side. now, the thunderstorms may continue into monday evening across parts of northern and eastern scotland. elsewhere, the sky should turn clear before the next area of low pressure rolls in first thing on tuesday morning. and you can see outbreaks of rain crossing the country as the weather fronts sweep in. i think the air�*s going to be quite close. temperatures on tuesday despite the cloud still getting up to about 18 degrees in some spots. and actually later in the day, we'll probably see sunshine developing — or at
1:58 am
least a little bit. now, wednesday midweek, we're expecting showers to develop almost anywhere, but more especially across eastern parts of the uk. one or two rumbles of thunder can be expected. i think come the late afternoon the skies should clear out towards the west and it should be a fine, sunny end to the day, for example, in cardiff, plymouth and along the south coast of england. so here's the summary for the week ahead. plenty of shower clouds most days and those temperatures hovering near normal, perhaps a little below at times. that's it for me. bye bye.
