hello. i'm tulsen tollett. this is sport today, live from the bbc sport centre. coming up on this programme... trouble ahead for jose mourinho as he leaves paul pogba out of the manchester united team for the english league cup match that they lose on penalties to second tier derby county. a former player denies bayern munich, as the bundesliga champions lose their perfect start to the season against augsburg. and fresh from his first win in five years tiger woods is in france as the usa team prepare for the ryder cup against europe. hello and welcome to the programme. we start with football news. manchester united have been knocked out of the english league cup in the third round by second tier side derby county after being reduced to ten men in the second half when goalkeeper sergio romero was sent off. minus paul pogba who was ommitted from the team by managerjose mourinho amid concerns over ther midfielders attitude — the hosts had to score late to salvage a 2—2 draw

at old trafford at the end of 90 minutes. philjones missed the penalty for united that saw frank lampard's side progress to the last 16 winning the shootout 8—7. there were a host other matches being played as well and there were wins for crystal palace, bournemouth and fulham. leicester city won on penalties at wolves but another premier league side in burnley were knocked out by third tier burton albion but no such problem for holders manchester city who eased through 3—0 at another third tier side in oxford united. wednesday's big game in the same competition sees chelsea visit liverpool. the two sides then meet on saturday in the premier league with the london side having the chance to go top of the table with a win. so which game is more important? i think that as chelsea we are very committed and we want to win both if we can. so we are going to try do the best, of course. the game on saturday will be huge. huge, it will

be important, because the title game means our lot. the game, as i said, i think that starting from tomorrow, we will be competitive, and we will see what is going to be like on saturday. —— and we will see what it is going to be like. former bayern munich player felix gotze scored in the 86th minute for augsburg as they denied the german champions a fifth consecutive victory to start the bundesliga season. arjen robben had put the hosts ahead just after half time setting them on the path to victory when he fired home off his left foot. but 20—year—old gotze, the brother of former germany star mario, equalised for the visitors late on with the help of some questionable defending meaning bayern stayjust two points clear at the top. and that's because second placed werder bremen were 3—1 winners over third placed hertha berlin while elsewhere hoffenheim and freiburg both picked up wins. in italy's serie a, mauro icardi had given inter

the lead from the penalty spot at the san siro before federico chiesa equalised with a good slice of luck for fiorentina who held hopes of moving second with victory. those hopes were dashed though when danilo d'ambrosio scored again 13 minutes from time to move the hosts up three places to fifth. and in la liga atletico madrid kept touch with leaders barcelona and real madrid with a 3—0 win over huesca while espanyol moved fifth with a 1—0 win over eibar while real sociedad and rayo vallecano drew 2—2. and one more football result to bring you — aberdeen are through to the scottish league cup semi—finals after beating hibernian 6—5 on penalties. scott mckenna hit one of aberdeen‘s six spot kicks before thomas agyepong, the ghanaian international who's on loan from manchester city, missed the final effort for hibs. that was after the match finished goalless at the end of extra time. onto golf and the ryder cup which starts on friday is being held in france for the first time. europe are looking to wrestle back the title from the usa,

who won two years ago. the europeans haven't been beaten on home soil since 1983 but face up to an extremely strong american team as andy swiss reports. it isa it is a site thatjust a few months ago would have been inconceivable. tiger woods repairing for a ryder cup, fresh from his comeback when, as ever, all eyes upon him. when he last played in the event in 2012, he failed to win a single match, and his form and fitness soon plummeted. many had written him off. so he says to be back as a winner is particularly sweet. you know, there have been a lot of you who have supported me, you know, through our lot of the years, and many have doubted that i would play golf again. and to win again. so i want

to say thank you to all those who have supported me. for the fans, tiger woods is undoubtedly the star attraction. he is so often struggled in the ryder cup, but there is a sense that this week mightjust be a different story. europe are the underdogs, here. while they have not lost on console for 12 years. it is different, walking to the first tee at augusta, said andrews, to the first tee in the ryder cup, that is different and it is hard to explain to someone that has not had to hit that tee shot before. —— st andrews. the players now have two more days to fine tune their form. europe may have home advantage, but they know the challenge is as daunting as ever. andy swiss, bbc news, paris. in cricket, pakistan are up against bangladesh in the asia cup on wednesday and after two defeats

against bitter rivals india. they'll be hoping for a reaction in dubai. pakistan succumbed to a nine wicket defeat against india on sunday and pace bowlers hasan ali and mohammad amir have been particularly out of form. and shoaib malik has conceded the more experienced players need to do more. when you have senior cricketers in your dressing room, their responsibility is notjust to perform on a consistent basis. their goal is to groom the youngsters, also. i think that is a big responsibility. it isjust also. i think that is a big responsibility. it is just that when you lose, if you don't make too many changes, eventually you stand up. so thatis changes, eventually you stand up. so that is where i think we need to improve more. now to tennis where world number one simona halep was dumped out of the wuhan 0pen in straight sets on tuesday by dominika cibulkova. the french open champion suffered a back injury in practice on sunday and failed to win a game in the opening set with the 31st ranked cibulkova claiming a 6—0,

7—5 win to set up a third round clash against daria kasatkina. petra kvitova is through to the third round after the two—time champion beat aleksandra krunic 6—3, 6—4. kvitova hit 13 aces and 3a winners on route to victory and she'll play anastasia pavlyuchenkova next. nine of the world's top 10 are at the tournament, with six spots at next month's wta finals up for grabs. also through is angelique kerber, her opponent madison keys played with strapping on her knee which seemed to affect her game. she lost the first set to love and was 4—1 down to the wimbledon champion when she had to retire. third seed kerber could end the year as world number one if she finishes the season well and plays australia's ashleigh barty in the last 16. but there was an upset for the world number seven, karolina pliskova, who was beaten by china's wang qiang, in front of her home

crowd in three sets. in the end it was a double fault from pliskova that handed qiang the win to take her through to a match against daria gavrilova. it's less than a month until the new nba season gets underway as the new look los angeles lakers with lebronjames leading the charge. the lakers who started training camp on tuesday will get their pre season campaign underway when they face the denver nuggets in san diego on sunday. their first regular season match sees them travel to the portland trailblazers on the 19th of october and james who's featured in the past eight nba finals with former teams cleveland and miami is having to teach himself some new tricks though. iam nota i am not a very patient guy. i understand that they have to be patient, you know? right now. i need to be patient with myself, to, because this is a new start to me. —— i had to be patient. it is my first year. i napa played game of basketball, but this is all new to me. i have to be patient with myself

across eastern scotland, north—east england, and that extends all the way down across much of england and wales. now, these are the average wind strength through wednesday afternoon. gusts once again will be higher, but not as strong as we saw on tuesday — a0 mph at times across scotland and northern ireland. in the sunshine, temperatures quite widely up to 20 or 21 celsius, including aberdeenshire and murray, which should see some sunshine through wednesday afternoon. through wednesday evening and overnight into thursday morning, our area of rain across the western isles and the scottish highlands moves its way a little bit further northwards, into 0rkney and shetland, so some clearer skies across eastern scotland. a bit more cloud across the far north of england, but clearer skies further south, where it will be another fairly cool night. some rural spots getting in the low single figures for a time. so this is the general setup as we go into thursday. we still have the influence of high pressure across central, southern england and wales, these fronts still fringing northern ireland and scotland, and bringing further cloud and outbreaks of rain through thursday. now, very slowly this will be

slipping its way south and eastwards through thursday, but running into an area of high pressure, so the rain slowly starts to fizzle out. and ahead of it, we've still got a good deal of sunshine across much of england and wales on thursday, and a warm day here. last day of the warmth, though, for a while, i suspect — temperatures on thursday afternoon across east anglia, south—east england getting up to 22 or 23 celsius. but behind that front, we're going to be in the mid—to—high teens. a sign of something fresher to come as we head towards the end of the week. so, from thursday into friday, here's our front sliding its way south and eastwards. high pressure starts to build in as we head towards the weekend. so, across northern ireland and scotland, we should see a return of some sunshine, but for all of us by the end of the week we're back into something much fresher. so, after those temperatures getting up to 22 or 23 celsius on thursday, by the time you to friday, things will be starting to turn cooler. and into the weekend, some cool days, some chilly nights, but for most of us it will be generally dry, with some spells of sunshine. that's all from me. bye— bye. welcome to bbc news, broadcasting to viewers
