city showed more fight, demarai gray going close and then the breakthrough, the strike from shinji okazaki in the 65th minute. danny ings, beset by engineer, has not played since october, and almost made the perfect return. —— beset by injury. but then islam slimani, a goal worthy of winning any cup tie. 2-0 goal worthy of winning any cup tie. 2—0 leicester city, strugglers in the first half, superb in the second. liverpool, most successful clu b second. liverpool, most successful club in league cup history, full at the first hurdle. that have a look at the rest of the scores: not that many goals around this evening. wins for middlesbrough, bournemouth needed extra time, brentford beat norwich (sic), bristol city winners, crystal palace winners, and also victory for

deceiving joe root‘s eyes. with chris gayle's wicket, the tourists had lost momentum. england were left chasing 205, but lights were fading fast on the west indies. the question was if their stoke could make his hundred before the close, he had the answer, a century built on perseverance and the platform for ben stokes to finish with a flourish. with a series advantage, england know this talented team will ta ke england know this talented team will take some stopping. it has obviously been a long time coming, my debut one—day international was a long time ago, india, cardiff. roller coasters in one—day internationals, to be honest with you, it has been nice to play a little more recently, and hopefully it isa little more recently, and hopefully it is a stepping block for things to come. that is all for sportsday, coming up ina that is all for sportsday, coming up in a moment, the newspapers. hello and welcome to our look ahead

to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are lucy fisher, senior political correspondent at the times, and camilla tominey, political editor of the sunday express. i hope that you know the words to " rocket i hope that you know the words to "rocket man". i hope that you know the words to " rocket man". the i hope that you know the words to "rocket man". the metro focusses on donald trump's un speech — saying he ‘didn't hold back‘ with donald trump‘s un speech — saying he ‘didn‘t hold back‘ with his north korea warnings. the daily express is on that too,

the president cut through the diplomatic pleasa ntries with his tough talk, it says. according to the financial times, theresa may wants to break the brexit talks deadlock with an offer to pay 20 billion euros to the eu. it‘s a brexit truce says the telegraph, with tory factions brought into line by a plan to cut off payments the daily mail hails what it says are the results of its own campaign, to get hate videos taken off social media sites. and the guardian is on trump again, saying his speech ‘stunned‘ the united nations. and the times has the duke of cambridge on it‘s front page — who a p pa re ntly cambridge on it‘s front page — who apparently asked people at a london charity whether drugs should be legalised. he go to the home of global diplomacy and starts talking about blowing another country to oblivion! anybody watching the speech was agog, some silent faces, watching this footage unfold. on one

hand, there will be sympathisers who think there needs to be some tough talking when it comes to talking about kim jong—un, talking when it comes to talking about kimjong—un, and he mentions venezuela, we all know about the problems going on over there. equally, united nations delegates and officials were left in stunned silence because this is not the language you use. is he transposing what he might normally tweet, onto the global stage? is that appropriate? totally destroyed... describing kim jong—un as "rocket man"... it is not the language of diplomacy... having said that, it may play quite well to some of his supporters. that was the point. this is designed for domestic audience, who like this robust, very pugnacious rhetoric but it is interesting that he completely ignored the warnings of the united nations general secretary who warned beforehand, nations general secretary who warned before hand, fiery nations general secretary who warned beforehand, fiery words should be avoided. other senators have weighed in from the us this afternoon, the

united nations is the home of peace, not warmongering. interesting parallels with the axis of evil speech that gorged w bush made one—year before the iraq war. speech that gorged w bush made one-year before the iraq war. the reference of "rocket man"... that is on the front page of the metro, "rocket man" on a suicide mission... the term he used, for kimjong—un. he said he is leading a rogue regime. and, isuppose, you have the sort of tough rhetoric on the one side and then this... this childish kind of stuff on the other. many people probably could not have heard that without thinking about elton john... that has beenjoked about by the metro in the caption. it is interesting, this silly name—calling, on the one hand, making serious points about the kidnapping, the oppression, the com pletely u na cce pta ble kidnapping, the oppression, the completely unacceptable practice is happening in the pariah state of

north korea. on the other hand, this rhetoric is... it is quite over the top. seeks to undermine the very serious point, usually you have euphemistic language, talks of neutralising a threat, seeking to contain an aggressive nation. threatening to totally destroy another country is just insanely aggressive. is it the kind of language the russians and the chinese might understand? and in fa ct, chinese might understand? and in fact, playing to his home audience, in america, also playing to them, because he knows that they, or he believes that they have outsized influence when it comes to dealing with north korea. this is an attempt for him to flex his muscles on the world stage. we know he does not have that much truck with these organisations which are meant to bring nations together, he can be isolationist in his approach and wants to lead from the front. on the notion of this being, call, kim

elton jong. . .! notion of this being, call, kim eltonjong...! there is a joke here... that's quite funny! it is difficult to stifle a smile, on one hand we are talking about apocalyptic scenario, and the potential for world war three, on the other, the notion of this toing and froing is just... the other, the notion of this toing and froing isjust... it has a column, call element. that is unfortunate, because it weakens... the seriousness of the whole thing. it isa the seriousness of the whole thing. it is a bit boys with toy tanks. you mentioned the axis of evil speech, david from is the guy who coined that phrase. little—known fact that "rocket man" is somebody you are supposed to sympathise with. —— david frum. here are some
