around with this one, some sleet and snow to higher ground. a cold week to come, frosty nights, especially during the first half of the week, then some snow. hello and welcome to sportsday, with me nick marshall—mccormack. the headlines this evening: seven tries for england as they begin the defence of their six nations title defence. kane's century — 100 premier league goals for harry kane caps of an incredible draw against liverpool at anfield. and cameron can't save the day. great britain are beaten by spain in the davis cup after norrie loses in four sets. anthony watson and sam simmonds scored two tries each as england began their quest for an unprecedented third successive outright six nations title. italy were only down by 7 points at half time but eddiejones‘s men

turned on the flair to run out 46—15 winners in rome. patrick gearey reports. the faces, the voice change — the results don't. when at home or in rome, england have always beaten italy. their philosophy demands that the team forget that and the fact that they have only lost once in three years. watson scored the first try. with the cup 18 months away, england have been trying to establish a cruel streak and watson was over again in five minutes. but italy found an escape. england stayed down the road. farrell scored

and then simmons scoring. wales, who play england next will watch this italian move a few times. proof there is space to be exploited. england will have learned much themselves, like not to challenge simmons to a race. his second try, his team finished with seven, the last finished by the replacement. history has repeated emphatically. so here is how the six nations table looks after the first weekend, with england on top with a better points differential over wales. ireland are on four points after that victory over france yesterday. scotland and italy are bottom without any points. in the women's six nations, italy and england are locked in a tight contest right now. both sides scored a converted try each in the first half. byrne for england. now 10—7 to

england. they have just converted a penalty in the second half. they have just converted a penalty in the second half. france's men are being investigated after their defeat to ireland yesterday for their use of head injury assesment protocols. six nations organisers will be looking at two incidents which saw french players forced off the field with knee injuries. but both players were also registered as requiring head injury assessments. antoine dupont‘s departure meant that maxime machenaud was allowed to return, which would not have been permitted if the head injury asssessment hadn't been cited. leicester's coach admitted wasps "always looked more powerful" as the tigers were beaten 50—28 in the anglo—welsh cup. leicester needed to win and score an unrealistic 13 tries to progress to the semi—finals and it started well when luke hamilton went over early. in a high scoring match wasps fielded a much stronger side, after last week's 66—7 hammering at the hands of london irish. they went over for 8 tries and capitalised on some poor defensive errors from leicester

to take the 22 point victory. ina in a moment the liverpool/tottenham draw. not much separated crystal palace and newcastle when they started their premier league game this afternoon. just two points and one place. and not much separated them at the end — it finished in a 1—all draw. but the points for palace moves them up to 14th while newcatste are in 16th as they both battle to avoid dropping in to the relegation zone. nick parrott reports. eagles aren't known for being placid, but when it comes to taking on these particular magpies, they rarely come out on top. crystal palace have only beaten newcastle once in their last 1a meetings. they had chances early on to change that, but christian benteke has not scored at selhurst park all season. while he could argue that karl darlow did well to stop him, palace had no—one to blame but themselves for going behind. a simple corner,

poorly defended, saw mohamed diame claim an easy goal. there would have been more goals before half—time but for the athleticism of palace goalkeeper wayne hennessey. and benteke's inability to take his chances. while the belgian could not finish, his presence forced newcastle into conceding a penalty. even then, darlow almost denied luka milivojevic. drawing level saw the eagles daer, but despite their best efforts, they could not pull off a victory which would help their bid for premier league survival. without playing badly in the first half, i didn't think we had anything like the aggression and the dominance i was hoping to see see the team produce. but they produced in the second half. i go home happy with the second half performance and a bit disappointed we couldn't get that extra goal which would have given us the important extra points. we did well in the first half, we

we re we did well in the first half, we were controlling the game. you have to analyse the opposition, you see the three offensive players they have today and how much and how good they are. we were defending well. credit to your players they were defending well and we had a couple of chances. even the first counter attack in the second half, that could change everything. so in football, it is the timing when you score and concede also makes a big difference. that tottenham/liverpool game has just ended. we will report on that later. great britain were defeated 3—1 by spain in their davis cup tie after cameron norrie lost in four sets, to albert ramos—vinolas. but it was another excellent effort from the world number 114 who had pulled off a massive comeback victory in his first singles rubber on friday.

joe lynskey watched the action. the davis cup is where tennis turns tribal. it requires a special kind of resilience, but this weekend, new british talent has emerged. before yesterday, he had never played beyond three sets, now he was keeping this tie alive. oh, my goodness! the briton recovered from two breaks down to force a first set tie—break. the problem was he faced a player ranked almost a hundred places higher. spain‘s albert ramos— vinolas can finish the important points, but norrie's fightback inspired a greater revival. in the second set, he did notjust respond, he ran away with it. this was becoming a match to define davis cup drama, and norrie was summoning barely believable strokes. he has got it! how on earth did he win that point? it forced the match to a third set tie—break, another pressure situation, but these are the moments when experience counts. ramos—vinolas wins his second tie—break of the match. britain won't be

champions this year, but. but in norrie they found a davis cup player. i can't speak highly of what he has done. people might have thought friday was a one off, but he did it against another high quality player. both breakers, anything can happen and he pushed him close. i'm proud of him and i have been saying it since friday. no one can tell how somewhere will play in a debut. he has been playing on the challenger tour. if he needs some reference point of how far he can go, he got it this weekend. the only way is up. i'm happy, i think it was a good atmosphere. i think it was a great match too. a long match. we both fight a lot.

and i think that it was a great match for everybody who was here today. speed skater elise christie gets her short—track schedule underway in the 500 metres qualifiers on friday at the winter olympics. she's been testing out the track in peonychang on sunday. it's been four years since she was controversially disqualified from all three of her events in sochi. that left her tormented by cyber bullying and death threats. but the scot is determined to ignore all the haters and is a strong medal hope for great britain. like american figure skater mirai nagasu, who missed out on sochi, in a controversial team selection. that was after she'd fourth in vancouver 2010. nagasu wants her close support crew flying the flag in peonychang. so she's been running a fundraising for tens of thousands of dollars so herfamily and boyfriend can watch her compete. being an american is everything to

me. i'm all about team usa. being an american is everything to me. i'm allabout team usa. i being an american is everything to me. i'm all about team usa. i think america loves me and i want to show the world that i'm a proud american. i love being japanese/american. i love my culture. i love my american culture, because who doesn't love pizza burgers and fries. but also i love sushi. my parents own a sushi restau ra nt. love sushi. my parents own a sushi restaurant. i'm excited to eat korean food in korea. i'm thoroughly exhausted from crying, what a way to come back from 2014, like myjump difficulty, some four years ago is insanely more difficult. i mean, thatis insanely more difficult. i mean, that is more than what any other

girl here is doing. when i reach a goal and i accomplish it, ijust soak and relish in that moment. figure skating is a very difficult sport, like we have to be so fit, but also beautiful and graceful and athletic. most people are like comets and a flash across the sky. i'm so lucky to still be here. i hope people will enjoy following me asi hope people will enjoy following me as i represent team usa, i skate for my country, i want them to share my journey with me. back to the premier league and at anfield liverpool and spurs were involved in an unbelievable draw. 2-2 it involved in an unbelievable draw. 2—2 it finished. harry kane with his 100th premier league goal. tim hague

reports. the title race all be over, it is about champions league qualification for liverpool and spurs. that is the prize, well, not for everybody of course. salah's shirt had greater significance two minutes in. h egyptian in on goal and doing what he has done all season. and doing what he has done all season. after that in this match between fourth and fifth. things we re between fourth and fifth. things were more cagey. milner nearly made it two. and more meaty, the tackling tough. but could the away side turn their fortunes upside down. tough. but could the away side turn theirfortunes upside down. time tough. but could the away side turn their fortunes upside down. time for victor wanyama their fortunes upside down. time for victor wa nyama to change their fortunes upside down. time for victor wanyama to change the course of match. he had only been on for a minute. one of the fiennes strikes you will see. to the victor the spoils. not yet, there was much more drama. kane has been quiet, and then w011 drama. kane has been quiet, and then won a penalty. but he was offside. would it stand 7 won a penalty. but he was offside. would it stand? yes, was the answer. would it stand? yes, was the answer.

would kane score? no. and then to make matters worse for kane in injury time the magnificent salah wriggled through and scored. surely that was that? absolutely not. van dijk bankrupting his side's chances. another penalty, the last kick of game and redemption for kane. 100 premier league goals for him and a breathless second 45 minutes. good luck choosing which of these sides will be playing in the champions league next season. that is all, now time for click. welcome to dubai, the desert kingdom where there's no

such thing as too much. this city has spent more than a decade making a name for itself for the outrageous buildings that it's created. but now it seems it wants to be known for technology too. a while ago, i paid it a visit during its drones for good challenge and met some of the local innovators who dubai hopes will contribute to its new tech power image. but drones are not the only thing is taking to the skies. this hover bike designed for the police force may one day be whizzing officers to the scene of a crime. copper chopper anyone? the officers can be using the hover bikes across the city to provide the service in the right spot and even a fast response. and these weren't the only high—tech

additions to the force. back in may, the dubai police got some new recruits and these weren't your ordinary newcomers, these guys were made of the hard stuff, and kate russell went to meet them. like so much of dubai's over—the—top ambition, the police force wants to be seen to be using the latest crime prediction and surveillance technology to watch over the people. we have our cameras, our drones, our robots. we are going to live in a science—fiction movie. artificial intelligence—based predictive crime systems, autonomous patrol vehicles and unmanned police stations are just a few of their futuristic initiatives. robot: i am a humanoid service robot... planned to be built in all of dubai's neighbourhoods are the world's first smart police

stations, which will be com pletely u nstaffed. citizens can pop in for a safe driving lesson, a quick coffee or even to report crimes. they can also meet dubai's own robocop. i am the latest incorporation into dubai's police department. but unlike the movies... hello... ..he'll kill you with kindness. you have really pretty eyes. i think i'm getting hit on by a robot! do you think i'm beautiful? yes. i love talking with you. thank you. you are absolutely astoundingly gorgeous, but it's the least interesting thing about you. my sensors detect the paparazzi among us. guess who it is? it's him. flirting aside, the head of artificial intelligence for dubai police sees the future with al and robotics very much at its heart. behind it is the artificial

intelligence, so it can see you, it has a facial recognition so it can identify the person in front of them and send all the live feeding to the command and control system. we have a project what we call the dubai eye where we have integrated all the cctv cameras across the city, and on top of that we're going to build smart system where it has a facial recognition. it's so difficult to monitor more than 10,000 cameras in the city, so we have an intelligence system that can analyse live feeds from those cameras and it can also predict also and identify all kinds of activities, especially of the wanted people. although this unmanned facility currently still needs a human on conference call when it comes to reporting a crime. so i would like report a crime. there is a robot here and he's stolen my heart.

he's stolen your card? my heart. your heart! we've recently seen chicago pd‘s crime—predicting algorithms and now dubai's police are turning their focus to preventing crimes before they even happen. this application analyses past crime and tries to predict where and when the next crime in that zone could happen in the future. another one of the smart services offered to citizens in dubai is the ability to register if you have a history of cardiovascular problems. you can see on the map there represented by hearts. now, this means that when an ambulance is called it will instantly know that it could be attending a heart attack victim, and they say that this has allowed them to reduce the number of fatalities by more than 50%. that's an impressive statistic,

but is this widespread surveillance reminding anyone else of a certain sci—fi film? people are going to equate this to minority report, what kind of protocols do you have in place to make sure the data is used in ethical ways in the future? we don't predict who would commit a crime, we predict where it could happen and when it could happen, so we can prevent it and reduce the rate for the crimes. with one in three crimes being successfully predicted
