much alive, this tie is still very much alive, and ole gunnar solskjaer‘s team can draw inspiration and confidence from the previous round, when they suffered a 2—0 first leg defeat against psg but, in a memorable performance, managed to prevail. but they'll have to be better than this evening, because they can be sure barcelona will be. that's all from me. now, back to huw in brussels. here in brussels, it's now several hours since theresa may addressed the meeting of fellow eu leaders, requesting a further extension to the brexit process. our europe editor, katya adler, is with me. the leaders have had a break and are backin the leaders have had a break and are back in the talks. do you have any sense of where the kind of disagreement is focusing within this group? know, because this really puts paid to the idea that this brexit summit was precooked, pre—discussed and agreed between eu leaders. they are not coming to a
10:31 pm
unanimous conclusion that they need to in eu law in answer to theresa may's request for an extension. what they are arguing about is a long or a short extension, and 17 out of 27 countries are open to a longer extension, but that leaves ten countries that are not, france, as predicted, right up there in front of the toughest, with emanuel macron saying he doesn't want to countenance a brexit extension beyond june the 30th, which is what the prime minister is asking for. everyone else in that room says, during the 30th, then we will have another summit and another, and we needed breathing space to get on with other eu business, but emanuel macron wants to concentrate minds in the uk, he wants to keep pressure up on mps to focus and come to a brexit conclusion but, you know what, it's going to be a long night. raqqa we will wait for it! that's all from the emergency brexit summit for tonight. there's more on newsnight on bbc two and on the bbc news channel, but now on bbc one it's time for the news where you are.
10:32 pm
have a good night. hello and welcome to sportsday — i'm hugh ferris. the healdines tonight. manchester united might need a miracle to make the finals, they lost the first leg of their quarterfinal onenote to barcelona. at old trafford or sports editor dan rowen was there, and dan you know we've given ourselves with a lot of work to do. i think it's fair to say the odds are firmly stacked against manchester united now. progress into the semi finals, barcelona had that's crucial away goal, they weren't best, the spanish league leaders, but they didn't really need to be, because in truth, you did feel there was something
10:33 pm
between the two sides, united were very energetic, they tried very hard, but they couldn't get that equaliser they crave, the opening goal, they knew the danger didn't they five times on player fear, that fantastic pass across goal to his team—mate luis torres, who deflected off of luke sure for a goal, it was ruled offside, but in the end they work correctly ruled that it stood. so that gave barcelona the early lead that united had been desperate to avoid. as i said, they did, very industrious united, and certain players have been drafted into midfield, lake fred for example. he did very well i think, but the better chance certainly belongs to their illustrious opponents from barcelona. certainly the likes of continuo, and suarez enjoying the best chances, david tejeda certainly the first of those occasions, with
10:34 pm
his legs. united as we said didn't enjoy one shot on target for the whole game, even though they were chasing it so hard in that second half. they will have to now look of course for inspiration to the previous round, when they suffer a two—goal deficit in the first leg against... and somehow mastermind that defining victory away in paris. they know that they will have to do something similar on this occasion, i think it will be harder, certainly they will have to play an awful lot better i think, like they manage to do tonight, because it's likely i think that barcelona, who had been in fantastic form, domestically, will also raise their game, and it will also raise their game, and it will be difficult for united, they will be difficult for united, they will have to resort to some of the spirit of 99 of corus. one of the most famous of her european cup victories, when they won against... on that occasion, but also in the new camp. so it should be a fascinating fair next tuesday night. dan roan arbor sports editor for us. ajax produced the story of the champions league so far
10:35 pm
when they knocked out real madrid in the last round, but they've got a job on their hands againstjuventus. it finished one—all in amsterdam tonight. and juventus have an all—important away goal. it came from a familiar source, cristiano ronaldo heading them in frontjust before half time. but then less than thirty seconds after half time, david neres steered ajax level. both sides came close to a second but it's level going to turin. both second legs are tuesday. cameron bancroft, considered quitting cricket during his nine month ban for ball tampering, but now wa nts month ban for ball tampering, but now wants to get back into the australian test team for the asters later this year. preparing to start the season for his county side durham, where he's been appointed captain. i've been really flat, really down. you're ina i've been really flat, really down. you're in a grieving process, a grieving face, and you've got to be really honest with yourself. we're down in the dumps, at some point, and then we've got to research and find a way, and thatjust happens over and over again. so i think
10:36 pm
that's nature, i think that's life, you know, i've learned that in a really ha rd way, you know, i've learned that in a really hard way, but i also feel like i learned a lot about myself, which was really good. you can of course find out more on both of those stories on the bbc sport website, had two bbc deco duct uk slash sports, much more reaction to that champion quarterfinal first leg from this evening where barcelona beat manchester united by a goal — no. that's all from sport for now. let's go back to the emergency summit being held in brussels today, just two days before the uk is due to leave the european union. the leaders of the eu's 27 countries are locked in debate after theresa may made her case for a delay in the brexit process this evening. the prime minister wants us to leave on the 30thjune, but there are concerns from eu members that a longer delay might be needed — or that the uk could disrupt eu business during any extension. there.
10:37 pm
it's been a long night for him, but he's going to keep going, it's good to see you. i'm going to keep going, yes thank you for the coffee, they've all filed all these journalists for their first filed all these journalists for theirfirst additions, but filed all these journalists for their first additions, but they know it's going to be one of those long brussels knights, because they're going to need you nana need to be on the length of this extension, at the moment will bring them from donald tusk‘s team, that 17 of them, and that includes germany are pushing for a longer extension, so summing up for a longer extension, so summing up towards the end of the year, but there's three or four, and french up towards the end of the year, but there's three orfour, and french is in that camp, who are pushing for a shorter extension, something closer to what theresa may was asking for. the 30th of june, so they've had a ten minute break, they're going to try to get backin break, they're going to try to get back in the room, and come to some agreement, but it could be some hours before we get a conclusion. we do know that theresa may spoke to them for around one hour, and more convincing performance according to some of the leaks that we've had. some detail that they didn't get from the permit is to, but she set up from the permit is to, but she set up the process, and she had to
10:38 pm
explain to the european union that it isa explain to the european union that it is a rare process really in the uk putting in terms that you get this across party negotiation. then of course she's been saying although she's not putting a time limit on the length of those discussions, she saying if they don't come to any fruition, then of course she will put all the various brexit options to the parliament, and whatever they decide, whether there's a majority far, that's what the uk government will go with. and uphold. is not to convince the fresh mac —— french side? what happens on a night like this, where you have two big camps, the engine of the european union who are at odds over something like the length of an extension? a long night, and a lot of coffee christian. well what happens is, they are going to go, they've been around that table once already. everybody weighing in, emmanuel macro near the end, they took a break as you are saying, and they go around again and see what people i sing a second time around, and how opinions might shift a little bit, and how the gravity of the debate shifts a bit as well. already i
10:39 pm
thank you can see it's shifting to a shorter extension. there was talk going into this of what up to april next year, now we're seeing as you say 17 odd countries talking about maybe the end of the year, so it's come down a bit, france sticking withjuno, the come down a bit, france sticking with juno, the end come down a bit, france sticking withjuno, the end ofjune as a hard and date that they are saying. i think to keep the sort of pressure on the uk, and to keep it sort of separated from it in a future business of ae you, as it moves into a new parliament, new president, the commission new sort of policies and budgets and everything going forward. just to be clear, people at home are watching this, thinking of going to bed. with the current date sat down as the 12th of april, we are not expecting any moment where emmanuel macro in and says no. the eukaryotes on friday? no. nobody is saying out this week. about the argument is
10:40 pm
theresa may asked forjune the 30th, i think the french are saying well 0k, i think the french are saying well ok, june the 30th then, because that isa ok, june the 30th then, because that is a pretty hard cut off. that would be a one off extension. it seems to be, you need to make up your mind then what are you doing. are you taking a deal, are you out with no deal? or are you changing your mind entirely? but of course, there are all of those other voices saying they don't want no deal, they don't want the uk crashing outcome and the germans in their... just quickly, there is one that we do know as we are coming to the d raft do know as we are coming to the draft conclusion. yes we do, which appears to be, i would be surprised if it doesn't stick. this is talking about the uk not taking part in decisions that are to do with the long—term future of the eu. so that 27 of the meeting, if the uk stays in from of the 27 still need to discuss 27 issues, particularly think about that long—term budgets, the next 70 or budgets, they're
