welbeck and ramsey all came close. we can go to like pictures at wembley. the matches on bbc one the moment, this is what is happening, it is still i—o moment, this is what is happening, it is still 1—0 to arsenal against chelsea, they have just come out for the start of the second half. antonio conte in his first season looking to get that league and cup double. and as jim looking to get that league and cup double. and asjim ‘s mansion, possibly the last game for arsene wenger. if they win the cup will he decide that 20 years at arsenal is enough? we'll keep you updated about sportsday and let you know what is happening. i—0 sportsday and let you know what is happening. 1—0 to arsenal in the fa cup final at the moment. celtic‘s extraordinary season has come to an end with yet another victory and another trophy. they've won the scottish cup for the 37th time after beating aberdeen 2—1, but they left it very late. david curry was at hampden park. celtic celebrating notjust winning the scottish cup victory over

aberdeen in dramatic circumstances but also completing a domestic treble, not only that, they have just gone through the entire scottish season unbeaten. brendan rodgers' side earning the title of scottish football's invincible ‘s. patrick geary has the story of a dramatic match. for weeks celtic have been taking the applause, hail scotland's champions, a final short of a treble. but aberdeen have been closer to them than any other, their motto, stand free, just as their winger did ten minutes in. gasps and cheers and barely cleared throats when celtic responded. stuart armstrong was the scorer. aberdeen had been ahead for less than two minutes. now it was a final of full—blooded stuff. the last team to beat celtic in any competition was barcelona, a cause for aberdonian inspiration rather than fear. the only problem, the final moments. and celtic were coming,

closer, it seemed, with every attack. patrick roberts came within inches. at 90 minutes the dons were hanging on. stoppage time was heart stopping time, and a young man from australia who was about to become a legend. victory and history that means more for having had to fight for it, celtic, scotland's invincibles. more big action to come at hamden, ina more big action to come at hamden, in a couple of weeks scotland play host to england in the world cup qualifier. will it be as tense and dramatic an occasion as the scottish cup final? we don't have long to find out. this is exceptional. for the season to go all the way through the league without getting defeated on to win two trophies and clear up the treble, it's the best feeling you could ever experience.

this is the best feeling ever. you couldn't expect anything better. it is huge tribute everyone behind the scenes who has worked hard all through the season, and what we have dedicated through the season has been incredible. it's been a dream, any manager coming in at the beginning of the season, you couldn't write down what we would have done. i said to the players before they went out that this is a game where you want them to write about it afterwards, but you have to make history, it doesn't just happen. and the players did that. the second half in particular, they were brilliant. there was a thrilling climax to rugby union's premiership final. the match between exeter and wasps went to extra—time, but it's exeter who eventually came out on top. the score was tied at 20 all after 80 minutes. an extra time penalty eventually separated the sides,

with exeter celebrating just seven years after being promoted to the top league. hannah lupton has the details. for this season's greatest entertainers the silverware they craved was within touching distance. exeter rugby were beater here 12 months ago and were keen to put the past behind them. jack nowell charged forward for the initial breakthrough. the chiefs had a healthy lead heading into half—time, but it was trimmed down to four points. the player of the season showed impeccable timing. wasps flew out after the break, breathing space. it was a final fit for a royal, but this was not to be confined to 80 minutes. in the final moments, exeter‘s penalty sent to extra time. nothing to separate them until the 98th minute. garrett steenson kicked for premiership glory. heartbreak this time for the men in black and gold, but for exeter, who reached the summit,

their story has a silver lining. scarlets are taking on munster in the final of the proi2 in dublin this afternoon. the welsh side won at leinster to secure their place in the final while munster are going for a record equalling fourth title. this match kicked off in the last half hour, munster did get the first score of the afternoon with a penalty but scarlets have hit back with the first try — liam williams getting on the end of that perfect kick to give the welsh side a 5—3 lead. williams scoring on what is his final game for scarlets, he moves to saracens in time for next season. you can watch live coverage on bbc two wales and on the bbc sport website. kimi raikkonen is on pole position for the monaco grand prix with lewis hamilton only able to qualify in 14th place for formula one's best known race. he'll start tomorrow from 13th place though after a penalty relegated

his charge was stopped and he was condemned to 13th on the grid. any hope of closing the gap to the leader sebastian vettel evaporated. but it was kimi raikkonen who came out on top as he claimed pole position for the first time in nine years. the far bigger challenge for the finnish driver will be to keep team—mate vettel behind to the chequered flag. things went well, i felt good, so i was able to push. it was quite nice, straightforward. and happy, happy for myself and the team, and now we have two cars in the front tomorrow. let's try to make the best of it. have two cars in the front tomorrow. let's try to make the best of itm you ask anyone, we always have a feeling there is more, bottom—line it isa feeling there is more, bottom—line it is a great result for the team. not as happy as i could have been, but well done to kimi raikkonen. the

ferrari driver is very happy with their day ‘s work. you only have to look at the body language of lewis hamilton to know that he fully understands the severity of the situation is difficult his race is going to be through these tortuous streets. it is all the moderation for hamilton from here. jenson button is placing fernando alonso racing in the indy 500 this weekend. he qualified a sensational mind, although got a 15th place penalty for more engine problems and that means he will start from the black. he will have a difficult race, but jenson button is loving being back ina racing jenson button is loving being back in a racing carfor the jenson button is loving being back in a racing car for the first time this year. you can listen to coverage of the race on radio 5 live tomorrow, but now let's get more of the day ‘s news. watford have appointed marco silva as their new head coach, barely 48 hours after he resigned as manager of hull. the 39—year—old portuguese took charge of hull injanuary but was unable to prevent relegation to the championship.

out of the event. britain's highest ranked professional was struggling with the waves and the heat and was knocked out in the third round. with the waves and the heat and was knocked out in the third roundm wasn't the normal heat where eve ryo ne wasn't the normal heat where everyone sits in one they and get weights, it was all over the beach, andi weights, it was all over the beach, and ijust weights, it was all over the beach, and i just got weights, it was all over the beach, and ijust got unlucky not to get a good second wave on that one. ruben ashmead it around for, the middle round of the competition, but could not make it any further. the same story for robinson, although he was generally upbeat about the team's performance. overall we were happy. getting through from three or four rounds against some of the best guys in the world is a good result for the uk or england, and definitely, we happy with that. so no home nations medal this week, but it is the first world championships for surfing since it was announced the sport would make its olympic debut in tokyo in 2020. and with 47 nations taking part, that is a record for this event, not perhaps

shows that the olympic factor is already having an effect. the french open gets underway tomorrow and the world number one andy murray will be hoping for a rapid improvement in form after a fairly miserable build up to the tournament. last year murray lost in the final to novak djokovic. this year he will play russia's andrey kuznetsov in the first round — a player he's beaten twice before — but not surprisingly murray says he's concerned about his recent form. i need to accept that i am struggling, and then find a way to get through it, you know? i will get through it, i'm sure of that. when that happens, i don't know. hopefully it happens in a few days, hopefully it happens at this event. if it doesn't, maybe it happens during the grass. britain's johanna konta is the seventh seed in the women's draw, despite never having won a match at the french open. herfirst—round tie is against the world number 109 from taiwan, hsieh su—wei.

actually i really enjoy this part of the season. especially this year it has presented me with new challenges, and new opportunities to grow, to look to improve as a player and a competitor. i think i am trying to take advantage of that as much as possible, and otherwise what specifically i will be looking to stay here for as long as possible. it's notjust the fa cup and scottish cup final today — there are domestic cup finals across europe. luis enrique will take charge of barcelona for the last time when they play alaves in the final of the copa del rey. his side were pipped to the spanish league title by real madrid, but it still provides him with the chance to end his reign with some silverware by winning the kings cup. and they've been boosted by the news that gerard pique, javier mascherano and alex vidal are all available. it's also the german cup final today.

borussia dortmund will start as favourites against eintracht frankfurt, despite having lost in their last three cup final appearances. dortmund finished third in the league, earning champions league football next season, and this match offers them a chance to finish the season with some silverware. while the formula one circus is in monaco, one the sport's best known drivers is far away from the principality, concentrating on an altogether different race. fernando alonso is preparing for the indianapolis 500, which takes place on sunday. alonso is aiming to become only the second man in history to have won both a formula one world title and this race. he will start the 500—mile, 200—lap endurance race from fifth on the grid. extremely happy with the car today, it felt straightaway much better than any other day of the week, so that was good preparation, a good feeling with the car. put it in a safe place, and sunday, engine on

to middleweight last time around, suffering his first career defeat against middleweight king golovkin. i was so decide disappointed about having to stop midway through the fight, i think having to stop midway through the fight, i think he's right to take out his frustrations on errol spence. promoters are expecting around 27,000 fight fans at bramall lane tonight, majority holding kell brook will retain his title. the one—day international between england and south africa has had an exciting conclusion. england were 330-6, exciting conclusion. england were 330—6, ben stokes hitting a century, it all went down to the final ball, south africa needing four. england are side with a spring in their step. a win would seal the series over south africa. they are supposedly the best side in the world. you don't get there without a

little bit of luck having already set up in the's openers, joe root‘s bright start was cut short, he ran out ina bright start was cut short, he ran out in a cruel way. but fortune can bea out in a cruel way. but fortune can be a fickle friend, in came ben stokes and he was promptly dropped twice in the first two balls. they we re twice in the first two balls. they were costly errors. stokes had been in doubt for the match, but any question over his fitness now was forcibly answered. his worst england is immeasurable. his worth to this innings was 101. south africa are now chasing 331 to win. it was a task they set about with calm assurance, but had they waited a little too long? with quinton de kock and 98, disaster. david miller tried to pick up the pace, but it wasn't enough. south africa, the best side in the world, and england have just beaten them again. in the mall and unassailable 2—0 lead with just one match to play in the series. arsenal asked a 1—0

ahead in the fa cup. more later. goodbye. it has certainly been going on today, i don't mean the weather. some of you saw quite a bit of this sort of thing as a result of the sort of thing as a result of the sort of thing as a result of the sort of thing. the top three in this particularly table, it is a continuation of that sultry thing we have seen of late. but there is one thing you can bet on this time of year, if you get that amount of heat you get something that looks an awful lot like that. that's how it looked underneath. some of you saw spectacular displays of lightning in a number of parts of the british isles, and quite a bit of hail storms in the violent thunderstorms as well. there is a general progression of these thunderstorms ever further into the heart of scotland. it will take a while before we see the last of those

migrating across eastern and southern parts of scotland, another while there has been a fair amount of rain across the western side of scotland. it has reached northern ireland and parts of wales at times. a little more comfortable for many for sleeping tonight. sunday, still the remnants of today's rain, drifting very slowly up towards the northern isles. a dry start across southern parts of the british isles. make the most of the morning, because as you see there will be a new belt of cloud and rain ever further north across the southern counties of england and wales. rain still there across the northern isles into the afternoon. brightening sky is across the western side of scotland, some drizzle flirting with the south—east of scotla nd drizzle flirting with the south—east of scotland and the north east of england. dry enough across northern ireland, and also the north wales and england was in sunshine, but clothing as this area of disturbed weather creeps further north.
