hello, this is sport today with me chris mitchell. coming up from the bbc sport centre: sevilla's sweet form continues in the champions league. manchester united make the 16 in the europa league. but real madrid are undone in spain and their grip on the league looks a little weak. the english champions have been humbled at home in the fa cup but in europe, they live in hope. leicester scored a crucial away goal in their champions league tie on wednesday, it finished sevilla two — leicester one in spain. juventus eventually broke down porto in their tie which they won 2—0. porto did well to hold on they were down to 10 men after alex telles was sent off in the 27th minute after two fouls in quick succesion. eventually porto resistance crumbled and second—half goals by substitutes marko pjaca and dani alves mean the italians are well in control.

leicester were being dominated by sevilla in their tie and were lucky to go in at half—time only 1—0 down. sevilla missing a first half penalty. pablo sarabia and joaquin correa scored in each half for the spanish club though before jamie vardy scored a crucial goal. his first of the year — to keep the english champions hopes alive.. you are wondering, is there one more chapter in the fairy tale because it's all been about negativity at the moment. claudio ranieri, who was the moment. claudio ranieri, who was the hero last year, has been the villain for a lot of reasons. but that goal from jamie vardy, we will see how it changes things, not only in the game against sevilla because jamie vardy, danny drinkwater, they

have shown changes. there were also three games played in the europa league on wednesday. manchester united are through to the last 16 after beating saint—etienne. henrik mkhitaryan scored the only goal of the second leg — as united won 4—0 on aggregate. krasnodar and schalke are also through — while united's victory means they've lost only once in their last 25 matches in all competitions. cue a happy manager. we are not unbeatable but the record is really, really good. it's nice to be, forfour months, to have only one little defeat and defeat where we could have that defeat because it was a two legs match so it's nice, it's a good feeling. we trust in each other and one day, we are going

to lose but the important thing is after that defeat, we go back again toa after that defeat, we go back again to a good run. playing in a solid way. in spain, real madrid missed the chance to extend their lead at the top of the table when they sufferered a shock 2—1 defeat at valencia. the result means that real remain one point ahead of barcelona and only have one game in hand. valencia are up to 14th. history was made in the asian champions league on wednesday when guangzhou evergrande played eastern sc in their first match of the group phase. eastern — the champions of hong kong — are coached by chan yuen—ting, who became the first woman to coach a professional men's team in a continental competition. who became the first woman to coach a professional men's team in a continental competition. but they were no match for the former asian champions who won 7—0. paul frostick reports. this was to be no philly's steak
