10:31 pm
going into the second leg. last year liverpool made it all the way to the final but unlike last season, this time they're fighting on two fronts, i think the fans are probably a bit more focused on the premier league at the moment but still a european night is a big occasion for anfield. what means more to liverpool? after a 29—year drought, most of their fans would choose a league title over another one of these. but as anfield crackled with emotion, it was clear the champions league is where they feel belong. with ten european cups between them, this was a battle between two heavyweights. liverpol were desperate to land the first blow. here, mo salah had pace but not power. with a makeshift defence, liverpool knew their strength lay in attack, and salah was getting closer. but in a first half packed with chances, liverpool couldn't find their cutting edge. joel matip will wonder how he missed this one. when bayern munich did attack, it was through serge gnabry. the former arsenal youngster left england with unfulfilled potential. he's at home now.
10:32 pm
it was a frustrating watch for liverpool's manager. his side would come close again in the second half, but, again, bayern‘s defence held firm. this was not part of the plan. if liverpool are to progress, they can't afford another night like this. they and their fans expect more. katie gornall, bbc news, in liverpool. that's it. now on bbc one, it's time for the news where you are. have a very good night. hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm sarah mulkerrins. your headlines... it's a night of frustration forjurgen klopp‘s liverpool as they are held to a goalless draw in the champions league against bayern munich. two days into formula one testing
10:33 pm
for the 2019 season, but one team still hasn't made it out the garage. and we meet the man who swapped being an investment banker to become a wwe wrestler. hello and welcome to sportsday, i'm sarah mulkerrins. good evening. welcome along to sportsday. well we thought with two open and attacking football teams, we were going to get plenty of goals at anfield this evening. but the first leg of liverpool's last 16 tie with bayern munich ended scoreless. jurgen klopp‘s side certainly had plenty of chances, but they proved either wasteful, or they were kept out by a resilient bayern defence. our sports correspondent katie
10:34 pm
gornall is at anfield for us. disappointment in a sense for liverpool a team so used to scoring goals, but they didn't concede an away goal. quite delicately poised heading into the arena. that is the silver lining, the fact they did not concede but now they have to go and score but it was a frustrating night for liverpool and this was not really on the cards because he had two of europe i think most potent attacks coming had to head and liverpool had a makeshift defence and no one really predicted a goalless draw but that is what we got, chances in the first half felt he liverpool and they had a few opportunities. but he could not find his cutting—edge and came close a few times. but just his cutting—edge and came close a few times. butjust could not find the power or precision really. but
10:35 pm
there was a decent chance as well for liverpool defender but he had the post in the second half. chances stacked up for liverpool but it was goalless at half—time and you sort of thought that maybe they might grow into it and be second—half but really they held firm throughout. this is thought to not be at the peak of the powers but they were resilient tonight at anfield and they will be pleased with the nightwork and know liverpool will go to munich in three weeks' time but ina to munich in three weeks' time but in a short time it turns back to the premier league and are fighting on two fronts this season, aren't they? manchester united @ old trafford on sunday. certainly a lot more potent in front of the goal for that one. thank you very much. the nights other champions league tie also ended goalless between lyon and barcelona. the french side went the closest in the first half when martin terrier‘s long range effort was tipped onto the crossbar. barcelona though, had plenty
10:36 pm
of chances to get an important away goal but couldn't find the target. story of the night, is intent? so that tie delicately poised going into the second leg at camp nou. a late winner from jake livermore saw west brom beat qpr in the championship. that sees them hold onto fourth place in the table in the playoff spots and six points ahead of middlesbrough in fifth. it went all the way to penalties in scottish cup fifth round replay — tonight. 2—2 it ended after extra time betwern iverness caledonian thistle and ross county. inverness winning 5—4 on penalties let's have a quick look at the day's other news now. scotland's finn russell has been ruled out of his side's six nations match against france on saturday. the fly half hasn't recovered sufficiently after sustaining a head injury for racing 92 against toulouse at the weekend.

10:39 pm
of the first four days of testing and there is only one more full day test after that. 25% plus of time lost on the track. that is not great when everyone else has been pounding around doing 100 laps a day. it is difficult to jump to conclusions from testing especially this early in testing, the team art testing liability and making the systems work and so on and no one is going for absolute lap times so mercedes are down any time sheets, which they are down any time sheets, which they are always like that in the first week. so it is not surprising knowing should be concerned about that. ferrari had hit the ground running and their new signing for this year, he is fastest today by a second over anyone else and more or less the same time as vettel set.

lucrative career to pursue his childhood dream of wrestling and has never looked back. it was difficult but it was something after the first training session, i know i want to do it again and again. it was with doing it at the time because i was enjoying myself i was not making a lot of money. his journey came with challenges. there was a lot of disappointment from the parents especially because you had a really great and lucrative investment banking career and to walk away from that it was hard to accept but when he signed to wwe, that is when the switch happened and we are really proud of him. it was inspiring to see him, he had a dream and just went for it. within our culture we have things that are set for us to do and that is ok if the want to do it but in my opinion if there is something else you want to do do not be scared and go out and take the
