commentator: away they go, the final is on. they get away first time. four years ago in sochi, christie endured a personal nightmare. crashes, disqualifications, she nearly quit the sport. surely it couldn't happen again? commentator: she has work to do to get back into contention. but stuck in fourth place, she spied a gap, went for it and what followed was horribly familiar. commentator: christie tries to make it on the inside. she's third. christie crashes out. christie is out of it once again! fontana going with choi min—jeong. it's a photo finish on the line! once again, christie's hopes were sent sliding into the barriers, it was sochi all over again, and as italy's arianna fontana took gold, christie was left in utter despair. well, can you believe it, another olympics, another tumble for elise christie. she still has two more events to come, but her games have started in disappointment. replays suggested christie's hand had been hit by a rival‘s skate and afterwards, she was inconsolable.

as the tears flowed, she tried to make sense of her seemingly endless misfortune. i know it's short track and i know i'm supposed to be prepared for this, but it still hurts, you know. obviously, it's still almost a week until my best distance, so that's the positive... i don't know, right now i just can't see living with this feeling, you know. i just... but, i mean, it's out of my control, i got knocked over and that's that. commentator: christie... oh, they've gone down! those memories of sochi four years ago, though, may now prove hard to erase. she crashed in the same final there, but her team are urging her to stay positive. i think you could all see she tried to put everything out there to try and get gold. she wasn't going for anything else. you know, that's the nature of the sport. you know, crashes do happen, unfortunately. the question now, though, is whether britain's biggest medal

hope can pick herself up again on a desperate day of deja vu. andy swiss, bbc news, pyeongchang. here on bbc one it's time for the news where you are. hello and welcome to sports day. the main headlines this evening. the champions league is back and how, as spurs recover from a dreadful start againstjuventus in turin, while manchester city were at their typical best in switzerland. ben stokes will fly out to new zealand tojoin his stokes will fly out to new zealand to join his england stokes will fly out to new zealand tojoin his england team—mates tomorrow after pleading not guilty tomorrow after pleading not guilty toa tomorrow after pleading not guilty to a charge of affray at a magistrates‘ court in bristol. and there‘s heartbreak for elise christie at the winter olympics as she misses out on a medal in the short track speed skating. good evening. we will guide to what

back into the tide. harry kane for totte n ha m back into the tide. harry kane for tottenham hotspur. higuain should have changed its complexion further but his penalty this time bounced back off the bar. how crucial that could prove to be as christian eriksen told them level from range. he has scored! the two goals are the firstjuventus have he has scored! the two goals are the first juventus have conceded he has scored! the two goals are the firstjuventus have conceded this year and the comeback was complete, proof of tottenham‘s own european credentials with a second leg to come. john watson, bbc news. proof of those credentials for spurs, they seem to be building. most teams struggled to score againstjuventus, especially at their ground but what a night for spurs fans. tottered deserve massive credit because you are right, the defence was considered to be the best in europe before tonight, they had only conceded one in their last 15 games, 14 clean sheets in the last 15 games, gianluigi buffon in fantastic form in goal, they are 2—0 down after nine minutes, incredible fightback and they deserved it, they

dominated after that horrible nine minutes, 67% possession, i2 dominated after that horrible nine minutes, 67% possession, 12 shots on goal, what more can you say about harry kane? 33 goals now this season. harry kane? 33 goals now this season. no player has scored more after their first season. no player has scored more after theirfirst nine season. no player has scored more after their first nine champions league games. he is in great form and tottenham are in great shape now, don‘t write offjuventus because of course they have reached two the last three finals but spurs have the edge, the two away goals and a game at wembley. in a few weeks, it will be a fantastic second leg, ican weeks, it will be a fantastic second leg, i can imagine, maybe not the same for manchester city‘s second leg against swiss gambians basel because it was very much one way traffic this evening. city winning 4-0, traffic this evening. city winning 4—0, pep guardiola says it‘s not over but it definitely is, looking at the goals, another wonderful performance, guess what? kevin de bruyne with the assist for the first, then began with the header, and he would score again. bernardo silva with the second copy can‘t even get into the premier league tea m even get into the premier league team for city but what a goal.

sergio aguero, again in great form, 14 goals in 2018 now. sergio aguero, again in great form, 1a goals in 2018 now. and as i mentioned, good began with the fourth —— ilkay gundogan with the fourth. yes, it can be said that basel are not a great team, they are seconded this was league which normally they coast, but basel beat manchester united earlier this season at home so again, manchester city in fantastic form, what more can you say about them? they are still on course for the quadruple, great performance. you might say they could be favourites. they are favourites to win the champions league, with the bookies and most people think they are the ones to watch. thank you forjoining us. there was football in scotland this evening, ten man kilmarnock came from 1—0 down to beat dundee evening, ten man kilmarnock came from1—0 down to beat dundee 3— evening, ten man kilmarnock came from 1—0 down to beat dundee 3— to add rugby park thanks to ian wilson‘s late winner. —— 3—2 at rugby park. ryan esson has been
