it has been a tournament of upsets so it has been a tournament of upsets so far. but can they provide more? spurs lead! theo walcott! a disastrous start for middlesbrough. manchester city already in front. makes amends with an absolute beauty! olivier giroud, 2—0. makes amends with an absolute beauty! olivier giroud, 2-0. 3-0. sanchez, brilliantly placed. tapping, 4—0, dele alli. sanchez, brilliantly placed. tapping, 4-0, dele alli. in towards aguero. finally. janssen, it is five. and he has his hat—trick. and it has walked into the back of the net from arsenal, he's run comes to an end, the end of the odyssey. good evening, welcome to stamford bridge for the last

of this seasons fa cup quarterfinals. i'm joined by phil neville, three times an fa cup winner, the team has arrived and the have all of those whistles thatjose mourinho would be arriving with no recognised striker but marcus rashford was off the bus, will he start? i think he will be, i think if he has travelled and he's in the dressing room, united had to play him. i think that unido ignite centre forward in the team and tonight is an fa cup game, and you had to score goals and i'm sure that jose mourinho will defend and have tactics to defend but you have to cause the chelsea back three to a problem. the trouble is chelsea, ten points off the lead, they have swept all before them. you think about what has happened back in october. then united were humiliated? that

was a turning point, i think he changed after that the style of the team, ithink changed after that the style of the team, i think he realised, you need to impose a self on the opposition. i think you will see a lot of the talk before the game was about having no strikers. jose mourinho probably building that siege mentality. and putting on a masterclass. i think you will see something similar, where tactically it will be very astute, nullifying the dangers. and he will look to it on the cant attack. identikit will bea on the cant attack. identikit will be a classic in terms of lots of goals by in terms of the tactical battle between both managers. how much will it mean tojose mourinho because it is the third time he has returned with another team and after what happened in october, that must have hurt? it was, i saw an interview the other day and it is not about jose mourinho interview the other day and it is not aboutjose mourinho returning to chelsea. he's not bothered about getting results for himself. deep

down, having been back to a former club, you do want to do well and you don't want to be embarrassed like october. it is an fa cup game, has to bea october. it is an fa cup game, has to be a result, everyone is backing chelsea, united not playing with any centre forwards. the odds are stacked against them, you know that is when jose stacked against them, you know that is whenjose mourinho is at his best. we had been talking to the two managers about this match, let us talk about conte and mourinho. managers about this match, let us talk about conte and mourinholj think manchester united, together with city, the best squad, in the league. because they have a lot, a number of great players and great talent, with great experience also to win. and for sure, it will be a tough game for us. and for them. manchester united is too big,

manchester united is too big, manchester united is the winner of the competition. it is not chelsea's faults, that we were given this monday match, so we have to make changes for sure because, we play sunday, thursday against rostov and rostov plays sunday, against grozny. but we cannot go to stamford bridge with a mickey mouse team. three big piece are already rating in the semifinals can we have got chelsea and manchester united tonight. i was just looking at their run, they have had a really easy to get this far, you have had manchester united, chelsea past peter brooke, brentford and wolves, united reading and wigan and wolves, united reading and wigan and they need is latter and off the bench to get past blackburn rovers. so the first proper test for both sides? i would say so, the biggest

tide for both teams, i am doing the draw after the game, we have just done a dummy draw, me and wayne rooney. i think it was arsenal, chelsea manchester united and versus city, and the other draw. people have said that the big bloodstain tape is seriously, were looking at the semifinal draw they do take it seriously. out of all of the managers in the premier league, jose mourinho is the anyone that hasn't rotated or given a chance to the younger players in the fa cup, he treats is competition cirrus den gives it the just credit that it deserves. so no wayne rooney common anthony marshall, so rashford, he has travelled. wayne rooney says you can't afford to be killed. how stretched is this united squad, they have played 12 more games and chelsea this season, that is something that mourinho pointed towards conte, no european football which is partly mourinho's faults? the fixture list has been cruel to them, russia on thursday, they

played against a russian side on thursday and samet in between that a massive game. if i was a player i would be loving the big games, but forjose mourinho, he has got to juggle forjose mourinho, he has got to juggle the side and pick which competition is best suited. up until now he has attacked every competition comedy said that he europa league make take preference later on because it is a champions league qualification. he will want to win this tie, he will not want to lose to chelsea and he will want to win another trophy. you had been with us pretty much for every round, you have sampled the spanish football as well. we all say it is really special. you have sampled the copa del rey, in the semifinal stages in spain. do they compare, european cup competitions to this competition? no, the copa del rey is a small competition where the big clu bs a small competition where the big clubs only really get excited when they get to the semifinal stage. it is not compatible. i think the fa cup is not compatible to any fa cup

competition in was trouble apart from champions league football or european football. because it is a fantastic competition and it is one where in two or three weeks' time and the semifinals on wembley, it will be an unbelievable occasion just like this is tonight. some of my best memories and football are winning the fa cup. you can never ta ke winning the fa cup. you can never take it away. it was every kids dream to win in the fa cup and people shouldn't undervalue that. rooted its, he had a part to play in some of these classic ties down the yea rs some of these classic ties down the years between manchester united and chelsea, it is 8—3 to manchester united but united haven't won here in overfour years united but united haven't won here in overfouryears in united but united haven't won here in overfour years in all connotations? no, they have had a poor ron for 45 seasons and it is something that will be on the back ofjose mourinho ‘s mind already comes to pick his teams. tonight i think you will seek a defensive type of performance. i think it is the early way to play games chelsea because they are so good going forward in the counterattack. phil neville, many thanks indeed. you

will be able to watch, bbc one, tower —— coverage starts, the last of the fa cup quarterfinals, manchester city, arsenal and spurs waiting for the draw that follows at about half past nine. but there will be a winner tonight if it takes extra time and penalties. who will be the matchwinner? we will be back a little bit later on the bbc news with all of the reaction, jasika ‘s manchester united but for now from all of us, goodbye. yes. he was quick to react! and again, it is 2—0. no, yes! he

just didn't know how far it can go, it is drogba. good evening it is 2! metres to seven, that oscar history to westminster. the first of those to key votes going on. the to the right, and the tenth to the left, the ayes have it. unlock. and the motion to disagree with the lords amendment number two. the minister to move. let usjust clarify exactly what you have seen in the house of commons in the last few seconds. the first of those two

amendments, 335—287. that oscar straight to the cheaper to call correspondent vicky young. —— let oscar straight to the chief political correspondent. the mps are considering he amendments, the changes made by the house of lords. that vote was on the changes guaranteeing the rights of eu citizens. so the ayes or have won that, they were disagreeing with a house of rules. that is a clear government win. and the bed is going again because they are now voting on the second of those changes on the house of lords —— the bell. that is a call for a meaningful vote when theresa may comes back with the end of negotiations, whether she has got the deal hasn't got a deal, they are voting on whether they get a vote. we should get that result in about 15 minutes. i think it is this second one where they are, more

concerted mps may be abstaining and voting against their own government by dame think they have the numbers even though theresa may has a small working majority. when it comes to brexit cheesiness likely better position, she has got the dup on her side most of the time and she has even got most of the labour mps so they cancel out the tory rebels. the cabinet ministers i have been speaking to our pretty confident that this bill is going to go through unchanged. if that happens in the commons in the next few minutes it will go straight back up the corridor to the house of lords and they will take another look at it. there was a massive defeat for the government the last time round, the government the last time round, the real question is whether labour are prepared to put on this for much longer, if they don't see much sign ofa longer, if they don't see much sign of a shift in the house of commons. the lords of course are the unelected chamber. they note in the end they will have to give way, the liberal democrats say they will dig their heels on this, and less labour and the crossbenchers to side to join with them then the government should get their way later tonight.

as we await the second vote, let us look back at the last couple of hours, how would you characterise the debate? it has been interesting because we have heard from tory mps and labours, talking about eu citizens in particular saying that we have a moral duty to give them a guarantee and they can stay here. we have heard from people like nick clegg, talking about his dutch mother, his spanish wife, saying they have lived here for years, paying their taxes and they have raised children. they should be given that assurance that they will be allowed to stay. david davis the brexit secretary responding to all of that, says he feels that he does have a moral obligation to those three eu citizens. but he also feels he has the obligation to more than a million brits living in other eu countries. the argument from the government has been that they can't unilaterally say, that you citizens will be allowed to stay and they wa nt to will be allowed to stay and they want to protect the rights of british people working and living abroad as well. they have said all

along that it is their priority, they say that other eu countries, it is their priority to and they expect and hope that once the dissertation is to get started that this will be one of the subjects that they took very quickly. whether that is agreed and signed off before the two years are up. maybe is a different matter. the reason it hasn't been discussed and sorted out already is because some eu countries say they can't do any of this until the uk who has said they want to leave, until you trigger article 50. that is what they had been waiting for but i think concerted mps in the commons had been reassured by what david davis has had to say saying there is no way they are going to start deporting people, it is not what they are about to do and they believe the prime minister in all of that. i think that vote, probably not such a big toy rebellion there. just on the second amendment, the word meaningful is the one that

stands out, people wanting a meaningful vote on what theresa may comes back with from brussels. what do we mean by meaningful in this context? it doesn't sound like the sort of phrase but what they are particularly exercised about, concerted mps, is what happens if theresa may doesn't get a deal. she has said that no deal is better than a bad deal. she has said that she is prepared to walk away from these the gaseous and is that the uk is going to be on this dossier time to leave the european union and whether we get a deal or not, that we will be leaving. that really alarm sale top mps and peers. they think it would be terrible for business if we just and then reverted to world trade organisation rules, that means that there will be tariffs on our exports and on imports coming in. that is not what they want. there is interesting on the prospect of no deal being raised. david davis, the

brexit secretary, saying that is highly unlikely. he is saying that he is hoping and expecting some kind of deal. he is confident that he will get that. then we heard from borisjohnson, saying the poor fee 0k borisjohnson, saying the poor fee ok if there was no deal. that would alarm some mps even more. what they wa nt alarm some mps even more. what they want is a guarantee that even if there is no deal, parliament gets a say even if there is no deal. this has caused a lot of argument, about what will that mean, accusations have these conservatives and lib dems and labour are simple try to go against the referendums and that they are some way going to try and have a vote that keeps them in the european union but speaking to mps they say there is no way that we can stay in the eu, we know that but we feel that the pilot has to be brought aside. in the end if she cannot take parliament with her, then you are in a position anyway

where you get to a point of no confidence we'd get to the point where she might have to call a general election. in some way some people saying that all of these votes in the end, so much happening that nobody can say what a meaningful vote it is. awaiting results on vote on the second amendment from the house of lords, just to reiterate what you have been following, mps overturning that first lords amendment on the brexit bill which is designed to guarantee the rights of eu nationals living in the rights of eu nationals living in the uk. the figure is 335—287, we will be back there for the outcome of the vote on the second lords amendment in the next ten minutes or so. amendment in the next ten minutes or so. now other important political developments today. scottish first minister has announced that she plans to trigger a second referendum on scottish independence. she says

she wants a vote between autumn next yearin she wants a vote between autumn next year in the spring of 2019 with the terms of the uk exit from the eu becoming clear. she said that scotla nd becoming clear. she said that scotland was on a path to a hard brexit over which it had no control. ican brexit over which it had no control. i can confirm today that next week i will seek the authority of the scottish parliament to agree with the uk parlour details of section 30 author. it unable scottish parliament to legislate for an independence referendum. the uk government was clear in 2014, that an independence referendum showed in their words be made in scotland, by their words be made in scotland, by the people of scotland. that is a principle that should be respected today. the detailed arrangements for referendums including its timing, must be for the scottish parliament to decide. however in my view, it is important, that scotland is able to exercise a right to choose their in

future at a time when the options are future at a time when the options a re clearer future at a time when the options are clearer than they are now. but before it is too late. in response to that, the prime minister has accused nicola sturgeon suffering from tunnel vision. as we negotiate to leave the opinion, i want to negotiate an agreement that is going to work full whole of the united kingdom, that includes a scottish people. that is why we have been working closely with the devolved administrations, we have been listening to their proposals and recognising the many areas of common ground. such as protecting workers' rights and our security from crime and terrorism. the tunnel vision that the snp has shown today is deeply regrettable, it could set scotland on a course for more on certainty and division, creating huge uncertainty and this is at creating huge uncertainty and this isata creating huge uncertainty and this is at a time of the of them, do not wa nt is at a time of the of them, do not want a second independence

referendum. so instead of playing politics with the future of our country, the scottish parliament should spend more time looking after scotland, politics is not against white hockey forces say that they are continuing to win back areas of mosul. the last road out of place has been captured and any is fighters still in the city will die there. mosul is iraq's second biggest city and has been in the hands of the ice cream for over 2.5 years. richard list has more. street by street, house by house, the fighters of the so—called islamic state on using western mosul. this rare footage ta ken state on using western mosul. this rare footage taken in the last couple days shows these militants under pressure. they are outgunned and outflanked. they are outgunned and outflanked,

surrounded by iraqi troops, relying on mortars, car bombs, and exploding drones like this one. to try to hold the advancing forces back. it's not working. they've lost a third of their territory. but civilians are paying a terrible price. there is little to go back to. my entire family, they are gone, said omar. he is 17. more casualties arrive every day. in these two weeks, we have approximately 60, we get around ten cases every day. hundreds of thousands of people are thought to be in the city as the shelling continues. with all major escape routes cut off, the iraqis and their
