0ur made headlines this evening: four british teams are in europa league action, with all eyes firmly fixed on the knockout stages. can celtic and rangers boost their qualification hopes? who'll flinch first? we'll be live in los angeles ahead of the weigh—in for fury versus wilder; the heavyweight title clash this weekend. and we look back on a moment of history for english football. a0 years since viv anderson became the first black player to debut for england's men. they were throwing all these things at me, he said get back out there, everything else was dismissed and i got on with client football. hello and welcome to sportsday.
6:33 pm
well its the business end of the group stages in this year's europa league. the penultimate set of group games leaves the two scottish teams fighting to make it into knockout stages and two english clubs hoping to secure top spot in their group and with it, hopefully a more favourable draw for the next round. a pair of those sides are already in action. arsenals game against vorskla poltava has been moved to kiev for security. a win means they'll top group e. so far, an inexperienced side leads 2—0 thanks to 18—year—old emile smith rowe and an aaron ramsey penalty. ahead of the scottish league cup final this weekend. a win for celtic at bottom side rosenborg would improve their qualifcation hopes. still goalless in trondheim. so far, scottish premiership side rangers have more than held their own in the competition. steve gerrard's side are just one point behind tonight's opponents, the group g leaders villarreal,
6:34 pm
with two games remaining. alastair lamont looks ahead to the match at ibrox. rangers task was made at a clearer this afternoon, 11—3 winners against the rangers in the last match it looked like winning again. but vienna struck twice later delete from the bottom of the table to the top and the group g wide open. all four teams can still qualify and even four teams can still qualify and eve n d efeat four teams can still qualify and even defeat tonight would not illuminate rangers. a positive result for stephen's man qualification as genuine possibility. rangers suggest they are capable of taking something from the match, and that will be the points! saturday's when i made it 1a without defeat in all competitions. but gerrard is weary of talk of them becoming a fortress. he said:
6:35 pm
the squad tried to dispel that notion, does feature some big—name players. and although the spanish side help one to one of the last six games it will still be a threat. would not be surprised if we use the technical ability of a war players to try and dominate the ball, they are very good team and the first leg and they made a lot of changes from the weekend took the first leg so it shows a big squad and a fantastic squad throughout so it will be a really tough game. i think if the rangers can come away with a draw will be fantastic and a good position to go in the last game. bad game against vienna next month, the rangers would certainly have to win to go through. the other british side in action this evening is chelsea, qualification assured,
6:36 pm
they need just a point to top their group. they'll be without talisman eden hazard for the match against powk salonika at stamford bridge. now a little later in the programme we will hear from viv anderson, because a0 years ago today, he made history by becoming the first black footballer to represent the senior men's england team. at the time, the 22—year—old nottingham forest defender received a telegram from the queen before his debut against czechoslavakia but it wasn't symptomatic of a time, where racism within the sport and on the terraces was extremely common. in the build up to the match manager ron greenwood told the media "yellow, purple or black, if they're good enough, i'll pick them" and so he did, in the shape of anderson. first to the moment, a fine tackle is followed by a view of anderson in his attacking role. provided one of
6:37 pm
england boss post your attacks of the first half, he is grounded out. the gold itself was rather a mess, the build—up was nice. he lost the ball and he was credited with pushing it over the line. the final result england one, czechoslovakia zero. that debut, over 110 years since the first black professional in england, began a number of ‘firsts' in england. in1986, john barnes became the first black footballer to play in a major tournament for england, appearing in the world cup quarterfinal. in 1993, manchester united's paul ince was the first black player to captain england five years later, hope powell became the first black person to manage one of england's senior teams. taking over the women's side under her, rachel yankey became the first woman of colour to make 100 senior caps for england and was matched by ashley cole a few years later when the chelsea defender became the first black player to reach 100 appearances for england's men.
6:38 pm
i think every individual who has progressed to be the first of made a huge contribution because they carry the hopes and aspirations of eve ryo ne the hopes and aspirations of everyone who comes after them and viv anderson was a first, a role model, a gentleman who had a wonderful skill and poise and conducted himself in an admirable way that any young footballer whether you're black or white would wa nt to whether you're black or white would want to follow suit and he conducted his life in such a manner that he has won over the respect and admiration of many people and that is his legacy. he has shown how you can succeed and break down the barriers, overcome the abuse, conduct yourself in a manner in which people accord you with the respect and the admiration that you deserve. and it's great that he is
6:39 pm
around a0 years later to help tell his story. sol campbell says he ready to "roll up his sleeves and get his hands dirty" after taking over as manager of macclesfield town. the former arsenal and england defender will have to be at it from the off, his first managerial appointment is at a club currently bottom of the football league. david 0rnstein was at campbell's first press conference today. he was the eighth manager in england's division. campbell made his name at the top of the game, as a manager starting at the game, as a manager starting at the bottom. campbell isjust the game, as a manager starting at the bottom. campbell is just the latest star of his generation of footballers to take a seat in the dugout, thejourney to footballers to take a seat in the dugout, the journey to get there has not been easy. it has been at least 12 to 15 applications, this opportunity came along and i said to
6:40 pm
myself that i want to wait another year, six months, a year to get a job. no will stop i want to take this with both hands and do the best job i can do and look at all scenarios and get this club and get thisjob done scenarios and get this club and get this job done and scenarios and get this club and get thisjob done and get scenarios and get this club and get this job done and get this club of the table where they should be and that's for me. campbell's controversial move from tottenham to arsenal was vindicated with a succession of trophies including two premier league titles, and fa cup. he also represented england at six major tournaments. but later claimed he was overlooked for the captaincy because he's black. i still believe that i was the wrong colour, i think ifi that i was the wrong colour, i think if i was white, i think definitely my chances of being captain would be enhanced. it's estimated that 25 to 30% of professional footballers in england come from black, asian, and
6:41 pm
minority ethnic backgrounds. however, that's not replicated among managers. across the 92 league clu bs, managers. across the 92 league clubs, campbell has become only the eighth of the amd origin. it's a0 yea rs eighth of the amd origin. it's a0 years ago that anderson became the first black player to represent a senior team while many have followed him onto the field, fewer have made the transition into management. the next stage is management, i think the preconception is they make good footballers but they don't make good managers and i think we have two get over that make you stop campbell is seen by some as a comics character, while contemporaries like frank rampart and steven gerrard have gone straight into high—profile management positions, campbell takes over at macclesfield with the club routed to the foot of the two.|j think for me the colour of your skin is academic for me. it's all about working hard at knocking on doors and waiting for the opportunity. the
6:42 pm
task may be daunting but at least gamble now has his chance. well we're starting to think that tyson fury‘s heavyweight title clash against the wbd champion deontay wilder this weekend will be nothing less than that, a bit wild and a bit furious. tempers flared between the two at the final press conference yesterday. could there another heated exchange at the weigh in. ade adedoyin is in los angeles for us. ade is there extra security in place? yes, we are waiting to hear what they're going to do as far as the waiting is concerned, you canjoin me in the auditorium where the press conference staged by me, they are getting ready for their press conference and we are still time to catch our breaths of what was a very fiery press conference alongside the former world champion who is related to tyson fury, they are cousins and training, what did you make of it all? i believe it's always likely to happen and it has, these guys have
6:43 pm
been preparing for this fight for a long time, thinking about each other every minute of every day and then you face—to—face only two days away from the fight. emotions are bound to run overand from the fight. emotions are bound to run over and i think tyson got under his skin a little bit. he was very hyped up and pumped up after the encounter. i think it went for tyson. he questioned the wisdom of having this face—to—face on the week ofa having this face—to—face on the week of a fight, you would have been there staring in your opponent's eyes, how difficult is it to control your emotions when you're so close toa your emotions when you're so close to a big fight? sometimes you have to a big fight? sometimes you have to control your emotions because you don't want to give anything away but sometimes it's fun to happen especially if the nature of the beast, these guys are boxers and they are and sometimes you can't control it. and these guys and i hate to say it but these guys really wa nt to hate to say it but these guys really want to hurt each other you know, they are two days away now from the biggest fight of their lives and it was bound to happen. they'll come
6:44 pm
face to face one more time which is at the weigh in tomorrow, are you anticipating there will be extra security? it's a big fight and what you don't want is for something to go wrong on the eve of it. yes, either a fight they will get injured or something silly to happen and it will be more bad press for boxing which we don't need anyway. but maybe there might be a change at the way in because it will be so close to the fight. both of these guys we focused on what they have to do and they will be in the zone and i think they will be in the zone and i think they will be a surprising amount of respect, the way in. as i said, the bikers will come together at tomorrow's weigh—in and what you hope there is not a repeat of what you saw on that stage behind me yesterday. thank you forjoining us. now we've heard about the heavyweight so far but things will be just as tasty down at featherweight. leeds fighterjosh warrington is aiming to unify the division in just over three weeks time he'll take on former two—weight world champion, carl frampton, in the first defence of his ibf title. warrignton won the belt in may, on a special night at elland road,
6:45 pm
but for him, and his dad, who trains him, that was just the beginning. prior to the fight, i would stay in a hotel with natasha and i said i thought to myself i don't care what happens as long as i win, if i have to be structured out by collapse after, if i don't box again after, as long as i went, that's on my mind. so the fire was burning ever since. he is the pinnacle of 17, 18 years ha rd he is the pinnacle of 17, 18 years hard work. when he wins the title he has a massive confidence in himself and it winds them up. josh warrington and his dad but to the
6:46 pm
top together but how does that bothers dog trainer and boxer relationship work? it's not been easy over the years but i've got to, having your dad as your trainer is difficult because he brought me up so when we had arguments, my agger views are from him so he's never wrong and fall out fall out of your bad. we have been working together and what we do is we leave arguments in the gym. so we can be arguing and walked out that we will close up and say it's about family now, not about boxing. people will say to me after five or six provides if you want to go upper—level and you need to get rid of your dad, he's not the one to ta ke rid of your dad, he's not the one to take you up. i believe what it takes to push me is a fight there. we have come this far, her body part from
6:47 pm
people, boxing experts they say it's an impossible task but now we have done that. i don't see why we can't go far. that is for the future, first up is carl frampton, the fight is just three days before christmas, not ideal but it does have its advantages. i do get to enjoy as much christmas dinner as i want and don't have to worry about putting the weight on. let's take a look at some of the other stories making the news today. manchester united have triggered the one year extension on david de gea's contract. the goalkeeper‘s deal was due to end next summer meaning that he could speak to overseas clubs from the 1st of january but united are keen to avoid any uncertainty over the player's future. cardiff blues have confirmed flanker ellis jenkins will need surgery after suffering a "significant" knee injury. it happened at the end of wales' win over south africa at the weekend. jenkins has said his "goal" is to be
