when it went out of the wing, i had a quick look and i saw him racing into the box. i can't remember who was supposed to be marking him but he wasn't quite with him. crossing the ball, i knew where it was going but i wasn't going to stand on the line because i am leaving too much room at the width. once he headed it andi room at the width. once he headed it and i know it's going to bounce, i get over there as quick as i could. ijust get my hand to it and it goes in that direction, and honest to god i thought it was a goal. when i hit the floor, boom! i turned around and saw it bounce around the corner, i couldn't believe it! memories of gordon banks, who has

died. el chapo has been found guilty of multiple charges at his drugs trial in new york. the former leader of mexico drug cartel, he escaped from jail twice in spectacular fashion before being caught in 2016 and extradited to the united states. richard donohue gave his reaction to the verdict. minutes ago, a federal jury the verdict. minutes ago, a federal jury hearing the eastern district convicted joaquin guzman, el chapo, on all counts of the federal indictment. thejury on all counts of the federal indictment. the jury found that he led the largest and most dangerous drug cartels in the world and that he is responsible for violence

including murders and the smuggling of massive amounts of narcotics into the united states over a period of decades. his conviction we expect will give a sense of —— sentence of life without the possibility of a roll, a sentence from which there is no escape and no return. his conviction is a victory for the american people, who have suffered so american people, who have suffered so long and so much whilejoaquin guzman made billions pouring poison over our guzman made billions pouring poison over oui’ southern guzman made billions pouring poison over our southern border. this is a victory for the mexican people, who have lost more than 100,000 lives in drug—related violence. this conviction is a victory for every family who has lost a loved one to the black hole of addiction. there are those who say that the war on drugs is not worth fighting. those people are wrong. every day we lose

american lives, everyday hammers inflicted on this country by drug addiction, and every sees —— seizure, arrest and conviction is a noble effort to save american lives. attorney richard donohue. you are watching bbc news. theresa may has asked mps to hold their nerve over negotiations, she also stressed the importance of making new trade deals after leaving the eu. joining me now is david henig who is a former trade negotiator who was involved in trade agreement‘s between the european union and the united states. good to see you. how tough is the european union when it comes to talking trade? they are an extremely tough negotiator, they work out a position among 27 member states and thenif position among 27 member states and then if you try to move beyond it they say the member states would never have that so they are very difficult to move. 0k,

never have that so they are very difficult to move. ok, so theresa may and those on the right of her party who believe she should be tougher with the european union, they believe eventually they will crack. they will cave in at the last moment because they don't want a no—deal, as no one seems to want. do you think that is the right tactic, that mps should hold their nerve rest of various colleagues have had a lot to see if we can find an example of the eu cracking at the last minute in such a way and we cannot find any example of such a thing happening before, not on an essential point like the irish backstop. we can imagine they would make a small concession such as a side letter but we find it very difficult to imagine that they will com pletely difficult to imagine that they will completely go back on everything they have said to date and say, actually that backstop we don't need it. the hard-core brexiteers .2 actually that backstop we don't need it. the hard—core brexiteers .2 the negotiations over the bailout for

greece a few years ago —— point to the negotiations with the bailout for greece, that they backed down. is that a perfect example of the eu caving in? it's a good example of the fact they will soften slightly at the last minute though we know that there will be things that can be achieved. it is a good example of saying they didn't back down com pletely saying they didn't back down completely on the greek bailout, it still preceded substantively among the lines the eu wanted, theyjust made a very small nod in the direction of their negotiating partner and that's what we can expect to see for the uk but nothing like what is being asked for in terms of getting rid of the backstop 01’ terms of getting rid of the backstop or putting a time limit on it. the brexit coordinator said today guy verhofstadt, that the uk need to

back down. donald tusk and others, at the very summit of european union politics have made it clear there is no renegotiation of this deal. what is the best you believe that the uk can get out of this? i think seeing a letter at the last minute saying there is no intention for the backstop there is no intention for the ba cksto p to there is no intention for the backstop to be permanent, that this is intended to be a transitionary measure and that perhaps both sides will look very seriously at all proposals to change the backstop or look at alternative arrangements in the future, that is what we could seek but that is some way short of saying we are going to change the backstop and i don't think it will come in the withdrawal agreement, i think it will come in a side letter. all right, thank you forjoining us, david. now it's time for a look at the weather with stav.

there is a hint of spring in the air at the moment and it looks like it will stay mild with winter on hold thanks to the high pressure delivering this mild air from the south. we had quite a bit of cloud around across northern and western parts through the day and this weak weather front will bring rain to parts of scotland and northern ireland through the night. it looks like after a cold start of the night, temperatures will rise as the cloud and rain arrives. further south, wednesday is looking largely dry and bright with sunny spells around. more clouds of further north and west you go with light and patchy rain across western hills. temperatures in double figures foremost whether they have the sunshine or not and it will feel springlike. wanted thursday, the best chance of seeing sunshine across scotland and northern ireland as well so fine day with widespread sunshine. still breezy in the far north—west, lighter winds in the south—east, very mild. you're watching beyond 100 days.

the drug lord known as el chapo is found guilty in new york. injust four shipments, he's said to have smuggled enough cocaine for every american. joaquin guzman is considered so dangerous the trial was held under the tightest security. he now faces the rest of his life in prison. donald trump does not like a budget compromise that will keep the government open. the problem — still — not enough money for a border wall. i have to study it. i'm not happy about it. it's not doing the trick, but i'm adding things to it. also on the programme... venezuelan leader nicolas maduro compares the trump administration to the klu klux klan — and tells the bbc aid convoys are just a pretext for invasion.
