that ease the players. they had their chances and came close, faced and made a couple of saves. he faced questions about being goalkeeper and a nswer questions about being goalkeeper and answer them. and still mournful chance to make it 2—0. mystical and it the bar but in the end rheometer it the bar but in the end rheometer it held on to get a crucial victory and they have a bit of a break now because of clasico the week and has been postponed. kylian mbappe show that he was great... he was a sub today for pst. starting on the bench because they are easing him back in after his answering injury. it was a wonderful performance in the end. came on in the 57th minute for some peace with a hat—trick and set up a goal as well for survey wonderful performance and ps6 looking in good shape as they always do well on the

hello there. tuesday was a fine day up and down the country. we saw plenty of sunshine around. it felt a bit warmer too particularly in the south. that's thanks to a ridge of high pressure which will be with us as well wednesday morning but we have got a weather system to the north—west of the country and this weather front across the south—east. some rain and stronger winds across the north—west to begin wednesday. perhaps one or two showers in the south—east but elsewhere it's a dry start to the day. a little bit of mist and fog around. a chilly start, mind you, but those temperatures will rise as we head through the morning as we see plenty of sunshine around. probably the best of the sunshine into the afternoon — northern england, wales, west midlands, and the south west as we will have more cloud, a few showers in the south east and it will be turning increasingly wet and windy across the north and the west. that also goes for northern ireland. those temperatures 13—15 degrees again. and then through wednesday night, it turns wetter across the eastern side of england. that weather front across the west will tend to slide south—eastwards

and merge with the other one. so, it will be fairly damp and cloudy for england and wales thursday morning with a milder start to the day. but windy and clearer further north—west. low pressure still anchored to the north of the uk. looks like it will deepen through the day as it will turn windier in parts of scotland and northern ireland with gales developing here. plenty of showers some of which may be heavy and thundery through the day. meanwhile, further south and east, will have that weather front sliding its way eastwards taking the cloud and the rain with it leaving in its way sunshine and one or two showers. but the winds really picking up across northern and western scotland. perhaps 16mph gusts. temperatures 12—14 or 15 degrees in the south. now, it starts to look like we will see colder air invading the northern half of the country as we head on into friday. it will be a bit milder in the south but we will have this feature running up off the atlantic from the south west. an area of low pressure with a pretty active weather front which is going to bring quite a bit of rain in places. it stays windy across the north

of the country, low pressure nearby. so, gales here, further showers. after a dry start for the rest of the country, it looks like it turns much wetter. some of this rain will be quite heavy across northern and western areas and as it bumps into the cooler air across scotland and northern ireland, we could see a little bit of sleet and snow in the high ground, particularly for the southern uplands. but again, another mild day in the south east. it's still wet as we head on into saturday particularly across parts of england and wales and mainly over the hills but then it turns drier into sunday but starts to turn colder for all areas. so, with that rain through friday and saturday particularly across the high ground of wales and north—west england could lead to some localised flooding, thus some travel disruption.
