and ben croucher. these are our headlines this evening. we've had goals in every premier league match today. wolves rescue a point on their return to the top flight. it's been a tough week for the scottish champions. celtic are beaten at hearts. an all—round display from chris woakes. a maiden test hundred puts england in charge of the second test against india. also coming up in the programme: more british medals at the european championships, including gold and silver in the bmx in glasgow. and we'll be live in berlin to see if dina can do the double? asher—smith goes for 200 gold before the end of the programme. good evening. we'll be live at the european championships later in the programme,

but it's been a busy day of football in england and scotland. it's the first weekend of the premier league and today we saw all three promoted sides in action. fulham and cardiff both lost, but wolves managed to get a draw. the championship winners were at home to everton. both sides have had busy transfer windows. everton‘s new signing richarlison scored twice, but they also had philjagielka sent off in the first half and wolves extra man counted. 2—2 it finished at molyneux, nick parrott was watching after a six—year absence, wolves keen to return to premier league. they spent and much over the summer but ever since bit more. it showed early. richard allison showed early, and they feel he will be worth every penny they paid. while the new boy

was “— penny they paid. while the new boy was —— having a day during, no boy had a day to forget. captain has served everything with a distinction for more than a decade, this lapse cost him and his team to dear. wolves taking advantage immediately in the game changing in seconds. the conditions could not dampen the atmosphere, and even after wolves went behind to richarlison for a second time, the home fans continued to sing their hearts out. their pressure eventually rewarded by robertojimenez. not pressure eventually rewarded by roberto jimenez. not that pressure eventually rewarded by robertojimenez. not that point pressure eventually rewarded by roberto jimenez. not that point they would want to but come may, i point could be priceless. wolves picking up a point there, ben. five other games today and the other newly promoted teams in action. how did they get on, ben? much is expected of fulham this season. they came up via the playoffs, spent over £100 million in the transfer window. seven summer signings started their opening game at craven cottage. but they lost 2—0 to crystal palace. roy hodgson turned 71 in the week, and he returned to his former club and will go back to south east london with all three points. jeffrey schlupp opened the scoring

against the run of the play in the first half before wilfried zaha's late strike. fulham's slavisa jokanovic may feel a little hard done by. more possession. more shots. maybe could have had a penalty when andre schurlle went down. ultimately came to nothing. it is a shame because he wanted to start the premier league with good results. the side showed positive things. of course, we showed some negative things, too. we showed we can be brave. we follow our style and move the ball and created some chances. and the team has to stay together and keep going. cardiff are the bookies favourites to go down. and life back at the top table after four years in the championship ended with a 2—0 defeat to bournemouth. callum wilson scored the second, having had a first half penalty saved. ryan fraser got the first from close range. it's the first time bournemouth have picked up three points

on the opening day of the premier league. for cardiff and manager neil warnock, a relatively quiet transfer window and a far from ideal start. they know they have been in the game. they are an established team in the premiership. we could have got a result here on another day. it has given us a lot of... we were looking for this season. we did have one to two lads a bit nervous today in the first 15 minutes. i think once that rubbed off, we settled down and got a few injuries today, a few players they could not play. so it really bodes well i think the future. the early kick off was at st james' park. whilst many teams have rested their players who had a busy summer in russia, tottenham boasted seven world cup stars in their starting 11 against newcastle, including the golden boot winner harry kane and france's winning captain hugo lloris.

they rode their luck but won 2—1. adam wild reports. the start of a new season at st james' park, but there were plenty for whom the football never really stopped. tottenham brought with them england heroes, world cup winners, the premier league welcoming back its stars of the summer. time then for some to readjust to their day job, confusing for a moment how close jan vertonghen got here, nine mm over the line. the goal given. as quick as that was, newcastle's response was even swifter. barely two minutes later, the black—and—white found space to get their season up and running. with six of the spurs side involved up to the final weekend in russia, some fatigue could be forgiven. but not dele alli, it seems. his england captain harry kane the first to congratulate him. a second half full of chances, the best falling to newcastle. hitting the post here, equally unlucky here. spurs with the win, rejuvenated it seems by their summer break. adam wild, bbc news. i am so happy because it is not easy

to provide them good rest, good holidays and be focused to be ready to compete. and now it is up to us to create this environment and provide them the best chance to improve. we just have more. i think the team was working hard from the very beginning against a really good team. we conceded, we reacted well and then conceded again, and the reaction in the second half was really good. you could see our players having chances and pushing and not giving up, so that is the positive. two other games to tell you about. maurizio sarri begins life in the premier league as chelsea boss with a 3—0 win at huddersfield. kante, jorgino and pedro with the goals. watford had a brace from midfielder roberto peirera to thank for their 2—0 win at home to brighton. the last time watford lost their opening game of the season was back in 2006.

confirmation too of the wins for bournemouth, crystal palace and spurs. that's all of today's games taken care of. tomorrow, the likes of liverpool, arsenal and defending champions manchester city will all be up and running, too, 0lly. many thanks for now, ben. it's the second weekend in the scottish premiership and hearts are the early leaders with two wins out of two they beat the champions celtic 1—0, kyle lafferty's stunning volley sealing it for the home side, asjoe lynskey reports. even in august, football is never on the fringe in edinburgh, especially when celtic come here. last year, hearts ended the champions' 69—match unbeaten streak. celtic out to banish memories, and the striker took the chance by himself, but he could not find the corner after the running. hearts lucky not to fall behind and soon lucky not to have ten men.

this one of seven bookings in this match, but the hot tempers soon fuelled a most emphatic finish. this is kyle lafferty, the northern ireland international, who found a way through. he has now scored against them four times in a row. it was all strangely below par from brendan rodgers's side. this near miss the closest they got. it meant celtic‘s earliest league defeat in 12 seasons, but hearts's stirring start sees them atop the early standings. in this part of the capital, there is a festival in town and belief in the air. joe lynskey, bbc news. three other matches in the scottish premiership. aberdeen won 1—0 at dundee, gary mackay steven with a late penalty. gaoless bewteen livingstone and kilmarnock, and steven boyd scored a screamer for hamilton at motherwell in their 1—0 victory. well, there have been 12 games in the chamionship today. and leeds have thrashed frank lampard's derby couty side 4—1 at the pride park stadium. the fourth coming from a fantastic thumping header by alioski.

elsewhere, west bromwich albion got their first win in three games in the championship. they edged a seven—goal thriller at norwich. aston villa came from behind to beat wigan 3—2 with an injury time winner. there were also wins for middlesbrough, who sit top of the table with 7 points, nottingham forest, sheffield united, rotherham and swansea. after two days of rain interrupted play at lord's, england have made the most of the sunshine on the third day of the second test against india. they had a wobbly start, before a big partnership between jonny bairstow and chris woakes saw them build a very healthy first innings lead. patrick gearey has more. it all seemed so calm.

after yesterday's storm damage, a short sunlit stroll would take england beyond india's total. but a right leg betrayal, lbw, letters that would recur. and this catch from behind at 32—2. not long before another lbw, the new boy up trapped at 28. this thoe root, different bowler, same result. that finger again. it accounted forjos buttler, too, an unsettled test that has a more rain and runs. in that context, jonny bairstow and his 50 was a fortune. no other man had gone that far in the match but chris woakes was catching on. he cashed in on a tiring india and england began building a commanding lead. they knew time and weather could be against them so they got on with things. racing ahead here, chris woakes's first test 100 scored on his return to the team in place of ben stokes. now for bairstow‘s big moment, denied 100 by athletic magic. maybe bairstow could appreciate this as a keeper himself. england probably had enough runs already but chris woakes keen to top them up.

halted again by bad light with conditions curtailing cricket again. will england have the time left in the test to finish the job? well, the forecast for sunday at the home of cricket is decidely mixed. a memorable afternoon for chris woakes nonetheless. 120 not out. england closing on 357—6, that's a lead of 250. it could be a very special night at the atheltics in berlin. dina asher—smith looking to complete the sprint double, ade adedoyin is at the olympic stadium. i believe they are just introducing the line—up. i believe they are just introducing the line-up. yes, ladies making their way to the track asher—smith try to complete the double but also become the first briton male or female to win this event. we also

had a british woman finished fourth with a personal best time. she carried the kid back in london 2012, still a student at kings college. herfirst major still a student at kings college. her first major championship as for places not bad at the world temperatures next year coming up. the women's long jump taking place at the moment, and currently in third place, up she hasjumped 658 so third place, up she hasjumped 658 so far. the lipid champion and defending champion is out, big news. she has there've —— an achilles injury soa she has there've —— an achilles injury so a real chance for british athletes in that final to claim the gold medal. the 200 metres, asher—smith attempting to make history here in the olympic stadium. can pointa history here in the olympic stadium. can point a five she has run in 100 metres. she will be up against deafening skippers, a double world champion. they are on the far side of the arena from where i am. the athletes on the line right now an indication for asher—smith. athletes on the line right now an indication forasher—smith. i

athletes on the line right now an indication for asher—smith. i spoke to her after the semi final issue she told me she felt after winning with the fastest time in the world in the 100. huge emotions for her but she says the job is not done. she came for a double and if you does that, it would be history. looking to own —— make her own history in uniprix stadium, but daphne skippers, the double world champion wanting to make amends for failing to win gold. she was one of the favourites coming into this match. she will be on the inside of asher—smith. the 200 metres final about to get under way here and at the hush descends on the array, i will hand you over to our commentary team. it'll come down to a fight between one britain they are into dutch women for the title. asher—smith with that double in her sights. skippers looking sharp in the 100 at 10.9 nine. the cooler this evening with a little bit of a

headwind in the home stretch. if you are looking for the fast, fast times we know asher—smith is capable of, it may not be tonight for that. but we shall see. a lot of moolah on the inside for germany. beyond that williams in lane two. skippers in for, asher—smith in lane five flanked by the dutch. beth dobbin in seven. beth dobbin in seven. the final of the women's 200 metres on the way and once again rowing past. skippers living herself with a huge amount to do. asher—smith is three metres already. samuel tried

to combat. here comes skippers, chasing down asher—smith but making no ground and asher—smith takes the title 21.89 she has done it again. she goes quicker still. the british record falls once again, her own mark is lowered. what a fantastic performance by asher—smith, a new british record, the record in the 100 metres as well and she makes history, the first male or female to successfully wi n history, the first male or female to successfully win the double at the european championships and it is not in there because there is a chance in there because there is a chance in the 4x100 relay as well. what a performance by asher—smith, double gold for the britain. was that not just fantastic woods many thanks to you at the olympic stadium. double gold for asher—smith, gold medals in scotla nd gold for asher—smith, gold medals in scotland as well. fantastic there, holly, but you have

been across somebody smells today, as well. we have had so much excitement here today in just the la st excitement here today in just the last couple of hours. another british 1—2 in the diving pool in edinburgh. so much excess for british athletes throughout the european championships. this time it was grace read in the three metre springboard and was grace read in the three metre springboa rd and saving was grace read in the three metre springboard and saving the best until last, her fifth and final dive and not to get that gold medal, really impressive performance, no pressure for her. and her team—mates, pressure for her. and her team— mates, who pressure for her. and her team—mates, who was actually forth and qualify, she came through to ta ke and qualify, she came through to take the silver medal, getting that double there. if you take both of those metals and add them to the silver medal one earlier on in the ten metre mixed synchro diving, that isa ten metre mixed synchro diving, that is a total of ten medals for the british athletes in the diving pool with two more medal events still to

come tomorrow and there was another british 1—2 earlier this morning in the bmx men's final that took place over at the bmx centre, the only permanent venue over at the bmx centre, the only permanent venue built for these championships. and it was run —— one by kyle evans, who surged clear in the race. and white in his first yearin the race. and white in his first year ina the race. and white in his first year in a senior competition managed to hold off the french world champion for the silver medal. but what a resolver evans, who has endured eight surgeries on his arrest. you can probably imagine not the safest of sports but he is now at the pinnacle of this sport and overcoming discipline in rio de janeiro of course in the quarterfinals there as well. we've also had medals in the hydro at the men's team gymnastics featuring max whitlock, a very tight competition between russia and britain right up until the final piece of apparatus.

the horizontal bar was disappointing for those athletes, dominic cunningham and james hall, who both took falls during their routines. but russia managed to finish the job, three very consistent routines that saw them take the gold and a silver medal for great britain. and just one more medal here today in the golf mixed foursome so a total of seven medals with one more day of competition still to come. holly hamilton, in glasgow, thank you very much on the those in the day of the european jb shifter and many much on the those in the day of the europeanjb shifter and many thanks indeed. let's have a quick look at some of the other stories around today and us pga, the last golf major of the year, has been affected by the weather in the last 2a hours. it meant rory mcilroy was among the players who had to finish his second round in the morning in st louis, but it worked in his favour with two

birdies on the back nine taking him to three under par, still seven shots off the clubhouse leader gary woodland. mcilroy is back out for his third round now. this is how the latest leaderboard looks. woodland and kevin kisner have just teed off..... mcilroy drops to two under. tiger woods is also out on course. leeds secured a dominant win over second—tier toulouse in their first match of super league's qualifiers. leeds finished ninth in the regular season and ran in nine tries in a 118—22 win. this is the eight—team stage of the season that decides who plays in super league next season. championship leader marc marquez will start the austrian moto gp from pole after a thrilling qualifying at the red bull ring. the spaniard claimed the top spot on the grid byjust two—thousandths of a second from andrea dovizioso. britain's cal crutchlow will start from fifth. whilst the european championships finish tomorrow, another major competition gets underway in ireland next week. the para—swimming europeans

are being held in dublin, the first major competition for the british team since the rio paralympics. and after a turbulent 12 months for british swimming, kate grey looks ahead to what we can expect from the team. british para sony enjoyed a successful 0lympic british para sony enjoyed a successful olympic games, winning 47 medals, including gold for the likes of le simmons and ollie hind. but since then, it has not been plain sailing. some leading names retired and british swimming had to apologise athletes after a former head coach was found to have created a climate of fear. there were failings in the culture and medication within british para swimming and the lack of empathy shown to athletes. might it be guesses what was i had not created an environment where at least the accountable to comment positively about how they were feeling. that was the thing that kind of personally me hardest was i consider myself to be quite friendly and approachable but there were a number

of athletes that did not feel that to come and tell me that they were feeling not comfortable with the way they were being treated. the team missed out on the world should be just last year after an earthquake in mexico city up to the european convention for the first major event for many of the british team since rio. but the focus now on a supportive and open environment for all. we have tried to include our athletes a lot more and what we do. we've created a representation group. we work a lot closer with the pa rents group. we work a lot closer with the parents this time around. there summing hasa parents this time around. there summing has a really young athlete demographic. and their parents, they go to heaven and back for these athletes, they work so hard, so we felt it was really important to consult that parent group a lot more and to build a relationship with them. great britain is sending a tea m them. great britain is sending a team of 2a summers to dublin, including le simmons, whose back following a break after the rio paralympics. she will face a

15—year—old rival, while commonwealth rival —— champion will be able to build on success and bring plenty of experience to the team. i feel like i was living up to a lot of athletes and now i'm kind of switched over and they are looking up to me so it is changed dramatically. my goal is to always inspire the kids as well and i always if they questions come to because i tell them. the freshfaced teen ina because i tell them. the freshfaced teen in a new president of a british para summing will hope success will follow in a new resume british para summing will hope successful following for a lot of children, there's nothing more embarrassing than their dad trying to dance. but dancing is a great way of getting fit, so a group of men in brighton have decided to shrug off the shame. and they've become so confident that they've performed in front of fifteen hundred people. mike bushell has been to train with the quirkily named 0utta puff daddys. they eat to the beat in michael's

house, where music be the food of love and all the myths about embarrassing dads dancing go out the window, most of the time. because it's notjust around the kitchen that michael is moving to the rhythm. after moving to brighton from wales, hejoined a dads' dancing group to give him a social life and to get his fitness back. together, they form quite a force, turning heads here on the seafront on a hot summer's night and once a week, it is time for the 0utta puff daddys to take to the dance floor. come to think of it, i'm a daddy. i can't really dance, so... five, six, seven, eight! it really changed my life in terms of the fact that it is easy to become very lonely. i'm not part of any sports or activities like that. there's something about the energy of the music and the dancing and people doing the same thing at the same time.

you can't help but smile and feel good about yourself. this is only the warm—up and already, i'm mentally challenged as well as physically getting a real, real workout. it all started seven years ago when a former strictly dance fever contestant wanted to encourage more dads who took their children to dance classes to learn themselves. now they perform every year at the brighton dome and next spring at brighton's football ground to raise awareness about prostate cancer. we practised in secret and when it came to the show, we heard some of the people in the crowd laughing and pointing. "that's my dad!" and then at the end, we had a standing ovation. the whole idea was to break the stigma of dads dancing, to perform on a stage like that

in front of 1500 people, an amazing experience. big chest! i am a london taxi driver. it gives me an escape to come down and dance with the lads and have a bit of a laugh. this is it. half an hour later, we're ready to put it into a dance. the great thing about doing this in a group, if you make a mistake, you can pretty much hide like someone else over there. this means anyone can do it. we know kids don't want to dance with their dads or see their dads dancing but my girls were brilliant, they told me to do it. i lost about two or three stone and i went to the doctor's because i was worried i was losing too much weight, they found out i was doing dancing, it was probably the reason. that was just a 30—second piece of dancing and so many moves to remember. what a way to finish.

that's all from sportsday. we'll have more throughout the evening. hello, last night parts of northern ireland and scotland got close to freezing, notably chilly night. tonight looking milder, cloud her and wetter. 0utbrea ks tonight looking milder, cloud her and wetter. outbreaks of rain continuing to work their way north but probably not to the far north of school and that scotland but equally not much rain to the far east of east anglia and southeast england but we notice the difference into preachers. 12 celsius the overnight low. the rain moving out of northern ireland in the morning but sunny spells behind it. some sunshine

behind this as it moves into eastern england and wales but thunderstorms developing in the afternoon. rain moving slowly forward and quite breezy for the western isles and a small breeze in the far english southwest. highs on sunday 222 celsius for more like 1a to 16 across scotland where rain will be moving slowly across. so more rain for northern ireland and scotland on monday and tuesday and warmer for england and wales. bye—bye. this is bbc news. the headlines. the manufacturer of one of britain's most popular weedkillers insists it is safe, after a us court awards huge damages to a man who says it caused his cancer. an airline employee who stole an empty passenger plane from seattle airport is thought to have died after crashing on a nearby island. two men have been arrested on suspicion of murder after seven—year—old joel urhie was killed in a house fire

in deptford, south—east london. a bbc investigation finds police overtime spending has reached its highest level since 2013, as the number of officers continues to fall. also coming up, dina does the sprint double at the european championships.
