arsenal or not another victim of a late comeback in european football this week. they made the semifinals of the europa league, moving a step closer to atrophy —— a trophy and a place in next year's champions league. the gateway to the champions league. the gateway to the champions league is the europa league. there is no room for a wreck and even with a three goal lead. the new again was again when cska went ahead on front. with a week in comebacks in europe, it did not bode well. the moscow momentum continued after half—time. the goalkeeper petr cech only pontiac to defeat of the structure. 0ne morkel would see the home sector. they came this close a magic moment. when arsenal looked out of touch, chatting with her. after danny welbeck‘s finish, relief. aaron ramsey's goal came at midnight

local time. this is a network at all might have gone wrong but only two more teams block arsenal's route back to the champions league. so here are all the results from tonight's quarterfinals. a lot of goals, a couple of impressive turnaround as well. sulzberger and marseille overcame deficits to go through to the semifinals. the draw is tomorrow, lunchtime. the eighth day of the commonwealth games provided us with some joy, some drama and some despair. in the athletics, men's 200 metre gold was denied by a dramatic disqualification. 0ne denied by a dramatic disqualification. one moment, you're celebrating becoming the latest gold medallist for your country, the next the bubble as well the truly burst.

bronze. she got her hands on a bronze medal in the women's 200 metres in a familiar face on bronze medal in the women's 200 metres in a familiarface on hand to give up the middle for that one. —— give up the middle for that one. —— give out the medal for that one. there was a golden moment on the track for sophie hong, the paralympic and world champion added the commonwealth title to her. i'm so the commonwealth title to her. i'm so happy. in the same race, olivia breen captured bronze. that metal taking wales to tighter total —— to tie their totalfor an taking wales to tighter total —— to tie their total for an overseas games... she was hoping to go one better and pick up top honours in the long jump which he had to settle for bronze. england took their middle tally higher. katerina johnson thompson will be hoping to

used to say there is the showdown business and the heavily business, and the showdown between tyson fury in anthonyjoshua would rank as one of the biggest in history of british sport. it's the boxing business, the heavily business and the tyson fury business. i think it's going to be quite exciting, so hopefully we have some fun and we're going to see really good fights, and find out who the true world champion is. and the showdown is set. who knows where it will lead? who showdown is set. who knows where it will lead ? who knows showdown is set. who knows where it will lead? who knows where it will and? in super league to make moved up and? in super league to make moved up to fifth... josh griffin touched down twice. this won his second of the match as hull picks up there six when of the season so far. former

soldier died disney has become the first amputee jockey to compete at entry. he was writing dynamite gallery exhibition, who came in eighth. that is all we have on sportsday. it's time for the papers. for myself and the team, it's good night. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the broadcaster and journalist, rachel shabi,

and the deputy political editor of the daily telegraph, steven swinford. welcome to you both. before we hear from them, what we know from the front of the pages. the story in syria the dominant story on all of them. let's start with the guardian, which says cabinet backed mrs may's warning that the use of chemical weapons could not go unpunished. the times says the us task force heading to the middle east is the largest since the 2003 invasion of iraq. the metro calls the cabinet meeting that took place today a "council of war", saying royal navy crews are on standby for action. the i also puts tonight's cabinet meeting about possible action against the assad regime on it's front page. the ft has a different story, analysis which shows almost half of councils in england have reduced cash reserves as the effect of rising costs and austerity bite. the daily telegraph claims health secretary breached anti—money laundering laws when he set up a company to buy luxury flats.

mr hunt has apologised for his mistakes and has since corrected them. the mirror reports on the first day of sir cliff richard's court case. he's suing the bbc over live footage it broadcast of a police raid on his home. and finally, the express reports that senior medical officials have condemned previous nhs guidelines on carbohydrates as adding to the obesity crisis. but begin almost with the story we are talking about last night's paper. no surprise, rachel, if the metro and it's this "council of war." indeed. this is leading with theresa may's to our meeting with cabinet in which she has secured their backing for some kind of action for the horrific chemical attack we saw in ghouta over the

people. is this the way to go about it? it's interesting, to the three pictures on the front, theresa may, macron and donald trump. the french seem to be very keen to be donald trump ayes best buddy at the moment stop live there was a clear shift in language today from the government. they concluded it is highly likely assad was behind these awful attacks and it is vital it does not go unchallenged. the question now is, when is it going to happen? we don't know. donald trump said earlier this week "get ready. my new smart missiles are coming," in a provocative tweet. not clear when it is coming. there have been huge movements in syria on the ground. as to what is coming,
