coming up on this programme: ben yedder inspires seville to 3 champions league victory over manchester united while elkeson sends shanghai sipg to the knockout stages of the asian champions league and simona halep is through to the quarter—finals at indian wells thanks forjoining us. joy for sevilla, misery for manchester united. the spanish side recorded their first champions league win in england, beating united 2—1 at old trafford. substitute wissam ben yedder was the match—winner for the spanish side. just two minutes after coming on, he scored from inside the area and just four minutes later he headed in from a corner to put sevilla 2—0 up. united got a goal back through romelu lukaku but it wasn't enough. sevilla through to their first quarter—final in 60 years and sending jose mourinho‘s team out of the competition. we have no time to be sad for more than 2a hours and that's football,

that's not the end of the world. i sit in this chair twice in the champions league and i have man united at home, not at old trafford. i sit united at home, not at old trafford. isit in united at home, not at old trafford. i sit in this chair with real madrid not out. i don't think it's something new for them, for the club and of course, being manchester united manager and losing a champions league tie, at home, it is not a delusion. i have no regrets. i did my best, the players did their best. we tried, we lost. and that's it. over in italy, edin dzeko scored the winner as roma won 1—0 on the night to go through on away goals with a 2—2 aggregate score. our football reporter john bennett was watching. excellent performance from roma

because donetsk looked great but it was a fabulous goal. prudden edin dzeko who never misses. we know that he has proven himself as one of the best strikers around. that goal was enough to put the side through so shakhtar donetsk go out but it's all about roma, they are into the last date for the first time in ten yea rs, date for the first time in ten years, huge celebrations at the olympic stadium in rome and they will be a team that many people will wa nt to will be a team that many people will want to play in the last day. they have an upset in them. a good performance against shakhtar donetsk. well on wednesday, barcelona are in action against chelsea. with a 1—1 aggregate score, there's all to play for at camp nou. bayern munich meanwhile have one foot in the door already, they're 5—0 up going into their second leg against besiktas. the performance was almost perfect.

in the midst of a challenging season at chelsea, conte got his tactics spot on and as it was all going well, not one man had other ideas. translation: i expect another difficult dame like —— game like the first leg. they are a difficult team to face and they are dangerous. it is true that the first leg benefits us is true that the first leg benefits us but we can't focus on what they do, we need to remain focused on our game. it's a fixture steeped in your pin history. barcelona and chelsea have done battle countless times in the latter stages of the champions league but after being pulled back at the bridge, it's now the real work needs to begin. with five european crowns and 2a league titles, the cultural capital of catalonia is used to the high life but barcelona don't just

catalonia is used to the high life but barcelona don'tjust have history on our side, they have form as well. still undefeated in league, the side have lost only once in the regular season. obviously it's going to be difficult and the new comp has a special vibe that does not allow you to express yourself out there so maybe for the return match, we will bring back players to the spanish soil and have players who will run very fast. in the last nine years, barcelona have only been beaten once at home in the champions league. the tea m at home in the champions league. the team that beat them, bayern munich, and while barcelona would have preferred a bigger cushion after the first leg, the germans looked destined for the last eight after crashing besiktas, and they are travelling to turkey on the hunt for more goals and the side enjoying a run ofi9 more goals and the side enjoying a run of 19 games undefeated, who would bet against them? shanghai sipg are through to the knockout stages

of the asian champions league following their win over ulsan horangi. brazilian striker elkeson scored the only goal of the game, as ben croucher reports. shanghai can be happy with how the season shanghai can be happy with how the season has gone shanghai can be happy with how the season has gone so shanghai can be happy with how the season has gone so far. they are a tea m season has gone so far. they are a team inform. former season has gone so far. they are a team in form. former chelsea forward oscar showed their intent but his effo rts oscar showed their intent but his efforts kept players on their toes. the visitors were outplayed to the next ten minutes. 0 should and could have taken the lead. toyoda should have taken the lead. toyoda should have been kicking himself for is missed chance. the japanese striker won't relish the replay. two minutes later, their chance came and went as sipg was saved by the woodwork. after the break, it was a moment of

magic which gave sipg the lead. resilient elkson was set up with a winner. they have guaranteed their place in the last 16. melbourne victory‘s chances of joining place in the last 16. melbourne victory‘s chances ofjoining them we re victory‘s chances ofjoining them were given a boot ——a boost after their match with kawasaki frontale. their first their match with kawasaki frontale. theirfirst win of their match with kawasaki frontale. their first win of the campaign. over in group h, frontale had a door with sydney while shanghai senhua's suffer the loss. the two—time champions moved a step closer to qualification. simona halep is through to the quarter—finals at indian wells after beating china's wang qiang in straight sets. the world number one beat her practice partner 7—5, 6—1 in just 76 minutes to take her record to 17—1 this season. halep, who won the tournament in 2015, is looking for her second

singles title of the year. she'll now face unseeded petra martic of croatia. gael monfils is out of the men's singles though. he retired with a sore back while a set and 3—1 down against his fellow frenchman pierre—oog herbert. herbert will now play phillip kohlscreiber who is through to the fourth round after his win over the world number three marin cilic. team sky have scored their first major victory of the 2018 cycling season — meehal kwitkofski won the week—long tirreno—adriatico race, while team—mate geraint thomas was third overall. thomas moved from up fourth to take the final podium spot on the final stage, which was a time trial on italy's adriatic coast. he started with just a three second lead at the top of the standings, but put in a storming run on the ten kilometre course to claim

the leader's blue jersey by 2a seconds from italy's damiano caruso. that's my most important stage race victory. so far, i won twice but this is beautiful. a beautiful trophy. it's one of the hardest stage races to win. i am happy to be on the first step of the podium. tiger woods and many els have been named for the cup in melbourne. they we re named for the cup in melbourne. they were tied at the end of three holes and it was declared a draw. tiger woods coming up a joint second place at the weekend is releasing —— relishing his return to form an it's a return to one of his favourite hau nts a return to one of his favourite

haunts as he prepares to play the arnold palmer invitational on the weekend. for me to go from not knowing whether i would be able to play the game again to i might be able to play at the tournament level, i might make a couple of cuts. i might be able to possibly get myself into the mix. oh, i am in the mix. so there is a process and evolution to it. it's been quick but still, i have to say, ijust enjoyed all of this because at one point, i wasn't even a thought. i didn't ever think of playing out here. plenty of champions league reaction at our website. on a night where sevilla went through and manchester united went through and manchester united went out. all of us, thank you for joining us. plenty to talk about in the weather

story for the remainder of this week. we closed out yesterday in the south—west with a beautiful sunset. however, u nfortu nately, that's the place today where we will see some of the wettest and windiest weather courtesy of an area of low pressure moving in from the atlantic. it is bringing quite a lot of heavy rain and gale force winds to parts of portugal and spain. this low will sit out in the atlantic and influence the story for the next few days to come. good news, a southerly wind will bring milder air across the country so if you managed to escape the rain and get sunshine, it will feel quite pleasant. quite a west—east divide with our weather today. central and eastern areas seeing the best of the sunshine and further west will see increasing and strengthening winds and rain, some turning heavy as we move through the middle of the day. gale force gusts through the isles

of scilly, up into cornwall and affecting south wales as well. eventually, we will see the rain pushing steadily northwards into lunchtime into northern ireland and western fringes of scotland. a level of uncertainty as to how far inland that frontal system will turn as we go through wednesday but central and eastern areas should state dry, bright and sunny. we should see highs peaking at 14 which will feel quite pleasant with the sun. moving into thursday, we still keep the winds across the south—west noticeably and a weather front making slow progress north and east. behind it, sunny spells and scattered showers. some could be heavy and possibly thundery. we keep the mild air down to the south but things are starting to change into the north—east. as we move into friday, more of an easterly breeze driving in a few showers and these will turn wintry to higher ground chiefly on friday but milder air still sits over england and wales for one more day at least. as we move out of friday and into saturday, under the influence of high pressure yet

again, into scandinavia, and circulating around that high, we will continue to see that easterly wind returning. not quite as extreme as last time but nevertheless it will be noticeably colder as we head into the weekend and there is a risk of snow showers falling at lower levels across eastern parts of england through the day. it is worth bearing in mind as we head into the weekend, there is the potential to see the return of some snow which could cause some issues. keep watching the weather forecast. we will firm up on those details. take care. welcome to bbc news, broadcasting to viewers in north america and around the globe. my name is nkem ifejika. our top stories: russia defies a deadline to explain the nerve agent attack in britain that left a former spy and his daughter fighting for their lives. as international pressure mounts, moscow warns any punitive measures will be met with a response. hours after the us secretary
