singles matches facing justin thomas. their worst start in 29 years — a new low for manchester united as they're beaten by west ham. and it's a mercedes front row for the russian grand prix — but it's not hamilton on pole. hello, good evening. thank you for tuning in. europe will take a 10—6 lead into the final day of the ryder cup. they dominated the fourballs this morning, but the usa clawed back a couple of vital points in the afternoon's foursomes. still, they'll need a spectacular comeback if they're to retain the cup. europe managed it in 2012, the miracle at medina, from 6—10 down — so it is possible, but europe will be confident of victory after today's performances. ben croucher rounds up the action: the battle cry created in
6:33 pm
scandinavia, the golf course in france, the rivalry created down the decades. the ryder cup is in the leg unmistakable but the usa have found it easy to lose yourself and on friday, easy to lose points. this cried created in hollywood. mcilroy‘s experience and the lack of it for his opponent let your surge clear in what became our one—sided event. what a shot. sergio garcia found some spanish strength to see off his opponent. butjust when another european whitewash was all, jordan spieth and justin thomas they
6:34 pm
we re jordan spieth and justin thomas they were here and heard. under these circumstances, probably the part of the day. not such accolades for your‘s fourth most successful pairing in just two days. the us were six behind and tiger woods still had not won a match. but undaunted by the cats and the pitfall to see a gold nationale, there was a strangely subdued metalwork and porter being dropped with pinpoint precision. it'll be 10-6 with pinpoint precision. it'll be 10—6 heading into sunday's singles and only twice for a team has come from so far behind to wind. the usa will need to do just that to create more history. too early to write them offjust
6:35 pm
yet. well, let's go straight to le golf national and our reporterjohn watson. a dominant display this morning but whatever so strong? —— why were they so whatever so strong? —— why were they so strong? you could see the american players were really struggling to get to grips with this golf course. it has been set up to benefit the european team and players, very tight in places and the american players just struggling to hit the fairway at times. dustin johnson had a lot of wayward shots, a lot more putting shots in the water. it is surrounded by water and very thick broth and americans failed to hit the fairways as they did at times, very difficult to achieve low scores when you try to play up achieve low scores when you try to play up from the rough and that was their downfall, certainly in those mourning for all matches which europe came out on top winning 3—1. impressive from sergio garcia rules out alongside rory mcilroy, they won their match. garcia justifying his
6:36 pm
wild card selection. we know he has not played particularly well going into this, not making it into the fedex cup play—offs but he has justified his ways and terrell pattern as well alongside paul casey. paul casey has not played for ten yea rs casey. paul casey has not played for ten years in the ryder cup, tasting success ten years in the ryder cup, tasting success twice previously, those two combined perfectly to win their match. the one shining light for the united states team wasjordan spieth and justin thomas who have been brilliant throughout. we'll talk about this success again but they have won three matches and they will look, orjim furyk will look for big performances from them tomorrow. no surprise but the standout has been. francesco molinari and tommy fleetwood have won all four of their matches now. no european pairing has ever done that in ryder cup history so ever done that in ryder cup history so it was a blistering start certainly as far as european pairings were concerned that they came out on top this morning.
6:37 pm
this afternoon, after the whitewash from europe in the foursomes yesterday, a bit of a setback. that will give them hope. it well and thatis will give them hope. it well and that is the one factor, plus point that is the one factor, plus point that the usa can dig into the single tomorrow because 3s we that the usa can dig into the single tomorrow because as we know, there was that whitewash yesterday afternoon. the united states on the enemy hammering and i think perhaps there was a feeling, could be witnessed something similar to that this afternoon? i think they came out with two points, as did the european team, so i think they will be buoyed by that but again is a brilliant performances all round, not least from henrik stenson alongsidejustin rose not least from henrik stenson alongside justin rose and not least from henrik stenson alongsidejustin rose and they play so alongsidejustin rose and they play so well together when it comes to the ryder cup but it was henrik stenson‘s parting times that really gets he and his team—mate in it. and we saw that i'm 17 and 18 as well. -- his we saw that i'm 17 and 18 as well. —— his his putting. molinari and we
6:38 pm
spoke about him before, a great friendship turning into a great partnership with tommy fleetwood. bubba watson does not seem to produce his best golf when it comes to the ryder cup but he combined quickly with his partner to get the all important to points on the board for united states in the afternoon session and the two points there as i was saying for the european team. as far as the european captain thomas bjorn is concerned, you will be over the moon with those wild ca rd be over the moon with those wild card picks outside the players that qualified automatically, those four players, picking up the points they did. let's hearfrom him. and from tommy fleetwood and rotary michael white after what has been your‘s day—to—day. —— rory mcilroy. it has been a great few days. they've done really well. i'm proud of how they played, proud of how it would together. they are determined to do would together. they are determined todoa would together. they are determined to do a job but they are belly leg
6:39 pm
very well aware of what is ahead of them tomorrow so we go again tomorrow, we go back and re—re— focus, retry and gets tired legs work on and we get out there tomorrow and this is probably the most important 18 holes ahead of days players for a very long time. it means nothing if we don't come home with the trophy so we can enjoy it for a couple of minutes but we wa nt to it for a couple of minutes but we want to win this ryder cup and we will watch the boys coming in now, hopefully one of them can turn it around and get something out of it, which would be a massive, massive bonus. for the team. which would be a massive, massive bonus. forthe team. so which would be a massive, massive bonus. for the team. so far, so good for everyone. a very nice day for us. for everyone. a very nice day for us. we like the course, the conditions are great for us, we are really good friends, we like to play together, spend time together and,
6:40 pm
yeah, just work from the beginning so yeah, just work from the beginning so it has been great but tomorrow we will be tired and we need to keep doing what we are doing, get those points that are missing. as far as european fans are concerned, probably the perfect scenario that the us picked up some points so they can still compete, not out of their reach, but europe in a perfect position going into the singles. yes, i guess for the spectators. we wa nted yes, i guess for the spectators. we wanted to be dramatic, we want to see an exciting finish and as you say, the united states team picking up say, the united states team picking up those couple of points. certainly that provides it will even though europe are clearly in the driving seat with that four—point advantage. it is worth pointing out that the deficit has been brought back before. we saw the european team do it in the united states, that is backin it in the united states, that is back in 2012 when they were trailing 10-6 back in 2012 when they were trailing 10—6 going into the singles matches on the final day. they managed to achieve the 8.5 points required
6:41 pm
which saw them win it outright. so, too, have the united states team. they did it in brookline back in 99. that was in us soil. they were trailing by the same deficit heading into the final day and produced a remarkable turnaround. if they are too good, it'll be very different this time around because he never in front a partisan crowd here, it is the crowd, at present, energy at the crowd provides the players all that is what they feed off and it is very ha rd is what they feed off and it is very hard because they know the american tea m hard because they know the american team are not just hard because they know the american team are notjust playing the opponents, the player they are going against two morrow, they are also playing the crowd so if the american tea m playing the crowd so if the american team can turn it around, that'll be arguably the biggest achievement in ryder cup history for them if they are to go on and keep hold of that trophy. as far as european fans are concerned, i jolly well as far as european fans are concerned, ijolly well hope they will not. thank you for bringing us up will not. thank you for bringing us up to date. a difficult week for manchester united and jose mourinho got worse today with a 3—1 defeat at west ham united in a week that saw cameras capture a frosty training ground exchange between mourinho and pogba,
6:42 pm
today the french midfielder was hauled off midway through the second half as united slipped to a third league defeat of the season. patrick gearey has this report. struggles, bubbles, toil and trouble is. manchester united have had a week of it. rumours of rows between the manager and paul pogba and results are not helping. having lost to derby county on penalties, it took west ham just five minutes to make things worse. felipe anderson's skill only really revealed on second glance. west ham laid low until the second half with yarmolenko deflecting the ball in off of lindelof. then paul pogba being substituted after for a man who is one of their own out flicking
6:43 pm
felipe. the problem was west ham united had space of a small london park for arnautovic to deliver the crucial blow. is mourinho's bubble at bursting point? well, after the game, match of the day commentator jonathan pearce asked jose mourinho about his decision to substitute paul pogba during the second half of today's defeat. you substituted paul pogba. a lot will be made of that over the next few days. i did not only substitute paul pogba. i also substituted martial. do you think he is trying just a little bit too hard? people can do that. he is trying. he is trying hard, yes. it is all very strange at old trafford at the moment, isn't it? not going according to plan anyway. not going
6:44 pm
to plan for liverpool either at the moment. chelsea playing liverpool in the late game. the two met earlier in the week. victory would take liverpool back to top of table right now chelsea are in front eden hazard with the goal for chelsea. it is the second half now. liverpool — behind for the first time in the premier league this season. what has already happened? they could be displaced but for now... manchester city have gone to the top of the premier league with a win at home to brighton. pep guardiola saw his side dominate the game and raheem sterling opened the scoring midway through the first half. sergio aguero made it two as city claimed a comfortable win. pep guardiola says his team are beginning to look like the champions they were last season. the important thing is after what we have done, when we have done last season. after seven games in the premier league, we are the same team
6:45 pm
that we were last season. of course you can lose games, of course we can qualify or not for the champions league, we cannot all we can win the champions league but no one can say we are not like they are. we are not respectful, professional, like our fans. managed to beat manchester united, ran liverpool close at home but what we have to do is take a lot of the good things they showed to day into this next series of games because realistically, if i'm looking at where we are capable of getting points it is against the teams outside the top six. no shame in losing to manchester city right i'iow. harry kane scored two as tottenham beat huddersfield. huddersfield still without a win this season remain bottom with spurs fourth. harry kane doing the damage. not all good news for spurs — who already have a number of injuries.
6:46 pm
playing without dele alli. as jan vertonghen and mousa dembele picked up knocks during the game. they have a game against barcelona in the champions league to think about. very pleased and it was a tough game again. the team wanted to win. that was easy to see from the beginning. for the fans, one of the best things for them. it was so staff and that is why we are so please to have three points more in the table today. arsenal were looking for their seventh straight win and got it. but they left it late. two in the last nine minutes to beat watford — an own goalfrom craig cathcart, followed two minutes later by a goal from captain mesut ozil. a great start for watford this
6:47 pm
season. watford sixth, arsenal fifth in the table. it's the first time watford haven't scored this season. they were very disappointed after their game, getting nothing for their game, getting nothing for their efforts. the day's results for you... after two losses on the spin everton eased to victory over fulham. newcastle still without a win lost at home to leicester 0—2. a fourth win of the season for newly promoted wolves who beat southampton 2—0. chelsea still leading liverpool thereby 1—0. that's all of today's games taken care of. liverpool just came liverpooljust came close there, from watching. not that i wasn't listening to you. let's move away from the premier league now and west bromwich albion are the new leaders of the championship after a 3—2 win at preston north end. fresh from knocking manchester united out of the league cup it was back down to earth for frank lampard's derby who lost 1—0 at bolton. there were also wins for sheffield united,
6:48 pm
norwich and swansea. in the scottish premiership, the reigning champions celtic have ended a disappointing run of league results with a 1—0 victory over aberdeen this afternoon. elsewhere today dundee have picked up their first points of the season with a 2—0 win at hamilton. leaders hearts have a five point lead following their 2—1 victory over stjohnstone. there were also wins for kilmarnock and hibernian. also coming up in the programme... saracens perfect start to the season continues — today's victims bath. and riding into the rainbow stripes — dutchwoman anna van der breggen wins the women's world road race title. before that... mercedes dominated qualifying for tomorrow's grand prix — but it's valterri bottas on pole — not lewis hamilton. hamilton made a couple of errors which saw him lose out to his team—mate. his nearest rival for the drivers championship — sebastian vettel — has vowed to attack from third on the grid.
6:49 pm
nick parrott reports. sochrs sochi's olympic park as mercedes' playground. they have won every russian grand prix since it started and only failed to take pole one. given lewis hamilton's form and recent decline, qualifying should have been a one horse race of the championship leader flexes muscle earlier on, going quickest in practice and breaking the record in the first part of qualifying. there was an inevitable outcome but formula 1 isn't always predictable and hamilton can be fallible. with sebastien better way off the pace, it was team—mate valterri bottas who stood on his way. the finnish man broke the record and as he tried to catch him, the british man who today was a bit too hard. i read as they can hamilton who has claimed more pole position than anyone in formula 1. he looked far from pole position than anyone in formula 1. he looked farfrom disappointed, though, perhaps he is explained leg
6:50 pm
expecting team orders during the race to help him move closer to a fifth world title. the weather's fantastic, we've got a great crowd and it was intense naturally as it always is. my last two laps were not special but you cannot always get it right. legal still in the fight for the race tomorrow but the g1 doing an amazing job. —— at least they are still. on to rugby union now and leaders saracens have become the first club in premiership history to begin a campaign with five bonus—point victories. bath became their latest victims today as sarries maintained their perfect start to the campaign with a 50 points to 27 victory. our rugby union reporter chrisjones was watching the match. with the bat boss paul blackadder fielding an understrength time and saracens in rampant record—breaking form, this was always in danger of being one—sided bloodbaths scored
6:51 pm
three tries and stayed in touch at times of saracens always used on. they tried in all, a second hat—trick of the season for the williams. there was more rugby in for a returning star as well. looking to international spot alex goudge was the star. overlooked by eddiejones continually but he is a full—back without parallel, setting up full—back without parallel, setting up tries and scoring one of his own. that is now five bonus point win for saracens in a row. the champions will take some stopping. in the pro 1a, ospreys are second in conference a, after a 22 points to 8 victory at zebre in northern italy. luke morgan with the only try of what was a fairly scrappy game. all the other ospreys points came from the boot of welsh international sam davies. there are another two matches under way — leinster leading connacht 20—3 and scarlets with a 14—0 lead against southern kings — and there are two more games later. south africa have kept up the pressure on new zealand
6:52 pm
at the top of the rugby championship by beating australia by 23 points to 12 in port elizabeth. the all blacks who are still top of the table take on argentina this evening. the super 8s in the rugby league now and the challenge cup winners catalans, and huddersfield are both unable to finish in the top four so that one for pride. later london will be aiming for a second win in a row, and third at home, when they welcome halifax to the trailfinders sports club — and that would keep alive the broncos hopes of a return to super league next season. we will keep you updated on that. time for a quick look at the other stories making the headlines today. norther ireland'sjonathan rea has become the first rider to win four consecutive super bikes titles. he's now won seven races in a row and has an unassailable lead in the championship. rea says he's "living the dream". callum smith is the new wba

6:54 pm
winner here and the right question was who it would be that would take the rainbow jersey was who it would be that would take the rainbowjersey bossing end, a very dominant rides, a by anna van der breggen. a lot of plot coming into this about the dark and their strength in numbers but uday i think anna van der breggen could have won that race by herself, she was that strong on to win by that margin was something super impressive. you will not forget that for a very long time. an australian team waving a kangaroo because they have a silver medallist. that must feel like a victory because anna van der breggen was ina victory because anna van der breggen was in a class of her own and you get a silver medal was a very big accomplishment and something she should be very proud of. she has been one of those riders working for others so i think the people's feeling will be that she just deserves that so much. we've seen her work there so many people and to see her get a medal at the world
6:55 pm
