hello, i'm katie shanahan and this is sport today, live from the bbc sport centre. coming up on this programme: on the 10th anniversary of the fatal shooting of the togo football team bus, we speak to one of the survivors. real madrid beat valencia, to reach the final of the spanish super cup, in saudi arabia. england will have to cope without james anderson for the final two tests of england's tour of south africa. hello and thank you forjoining us. 10 years ago this week one of the most shocking incidents happened to a sports team. togo‘s football team were travelling to the africa cup of nations in angola when they were ambushed by gunmen. two people were killed, with many more injured in the attack, including goalkeeper.

he lost his livelihood and nearly his life on that day. and he's among the victims who want the confederation of african football to take responsibility. as victoire ayum reports. just get your reaction to a story that has been breaking, a shooting at the africa cup of nations at the togo team but. to go's football team had just arrived and angola. minutes later, two members of the delegation we re later, two members of the delegation were shot damp. the assistant coach and one other. translation: i heard and one other. translation: i heard a machine—gun. when i tried to move, it was as if i was nailed to the seat. i didn't understand it, but then i saw myself, both my something and back were bleeding. during the

attack, togo's goalkeeper was shot twice. translation: attack, togo's goalkeeper was shot twice. translationzlj attack, togo's goalkeeper was shot twice. translation: i stood, i've been hit, help me. i want to see my children, i don't want to die here. the attack, which was claimed by a rebel group, took place in the northern angolan enclave, an area which the separatists want to be independent. translation: why did they organise the nation's top and angola? the attack ended this career and almost this life. still regularly taking painkillers, the 35—year—old bill struggles with the fa ct 35—year—old bill struggles with the fact that cost—cutting by the togo fa meant the delegation travelled through a disputed area by bus. here is also critical of the raining

body, here says he has never been paid any money. we contacted them for comment, but have yet to hear back. after eight different operations, he has left the wheelchair to which he was confined for over a year and has made the most out of a life without. translation: i have done a lot of things since the attack. i went back to studying, passed some exams, worked for five years, wrote a book and today i am working on some other project. i am and today i am working on some other project. iam happy and today i am working on some other project. i am happy to have done all this. while he serves a life sentence, not one of the men who ever pulled the trigger has gone to prison. staying with football, as real madrid are through to the final of the re—vamped spanish super cup after beating valencia 3—1.

the competition is now a four—team tournament. and, this year's edition, is being played in saudi arabia for the first time. real madrid took the lead after only 15 minutes thanks to german midfielder, toni krose, who scored directly from a corner. isco and looka modric both scored either side of the break, before valencia got a late consolation goal. real madrid will now face either barcelona or atletico madrid, who meet in the second semi—final on thursday. in england, it's all—square after the first leg of the league cup semi—final between leicester city and aston villa. frederic gilbaire put villa in front after 28 minutes, with kelechi ianacho equalising for leicester late in the second—half. the second leg is in three weeks time. even though we were dominating in the first half, give away a soft goal but in second half we had a

different mentality, they made some great saves, very good locks, but we eventually hit the goal which was at least what we deserved. meanwhile, mauro icardi scored a hat—trick as paris saint—germain thrashed saint—etienne to reach the semi—finals of the french league cup. neymar and mbappe were also among the scorers as psg won 6—1. in the night's other games, lille beat amiens 2—nil. and lyon beat brest 3—1. to cricket, and england will be without fast bowlerjames anderson for the rest of their test series in south africa. england's all—time leading wicket—taker, broke a rib during the 2nd test in cape town, which england won, to level the series, with two matches to play. the bbc‘s adam mountford reports from south africa. this is a huge blow for england but it isa this is a huge blow for england but it is a major setback forjames anderson after that frustrating five—month long layoff in the summer with a calf injury, he looked back

to his evergreen taking seven wickets of the match including a record—breaking five wicket haul in the first innings stopping this rib injury will have him out of action for 6— eight weeks which means he misses the rest of the series here in south africa and will almost certainly be absent in the two test matches to be played in sri lanka and march although he might be rested for that series anyway. but the concern is at the age of 37 will ta ke the concern is at the age of 37 will take longer and longer to get over these injuries? he spoke about having unfinished business in australia, he wants to be there to play in the ashes in 2022 but he will be 39 then and to england really believe he can do that? and if they don't, with his injuries coming more and more often, do they have to start looking elsewhere. you would be a full two start overlooking james anderson but he faces one of his great challenges now. now, we've seen wheelchair racing, wheelchair basketball and even wheelchair rugby. but what about wheelchair motocross, a sport where competitors do

backflips in their chairs? well, the uk has its first champion in the sport. 15—year—old lily rice says the sport has changed her life. she wants younger wheelchair users to be inspired to use local skateparks and thinks it should be a paralympic sport. tom brown went to meet her. there was a time when a skate park may have been no place for a wheelchair, but that was a time for lily rice. is wheelchair motocross and this teenager is the uk's first world champion. that was the best i've ever done! i think when they first started people were like, why is there a wheelchair? but now people are starting to see it more and they are a lot more positive about it. lily has hereditary domestic paraplegia which causes a

wea kness domestic paraplegia which causes a weakness in the muscles from her waist down. she says she used to hate being in a wheelchair, but then she spotted an american called aaron wetherington, and lily was inspired. wheelchair motocross has changed my life completely. before i was actually riding, i was quite down and didn't like my disability and i was very shy. and since i started ridingi was very shy. and since i started riding i have become a lot more confident and happy, met some amazing people and done some amazing things. amazing things like this: after becoming the first woman in europe to do a wheelchair backflip, lily went on to win the world title, having finished second the year before. it was extraordinarily emotional. it was part of the

evolution of somebody who wasn't confident and that was kind of the springboard for her. you can just do it like this. lily isn't one to sit back and reflect on her own success. she is hoping to inspire more disabled children take on the sports. i enjoy the sport so much and they want to share it with eve ryo ne and they want to share it with everyone else. we are just a normal skate park, and just because we are differently abled doesn't mean that we can't interact with everyone else. definitely differently abled sounds a lot better than disabled. i think differently abled is, you just have to do it differently. 2020 will see another pa ralympic have to do it differently. 2020 will see another paralympic games. wcmx isn't part of it, at least not yet. that is lily rice's next big goal. just time to tell you that australia

are i—nil up against great britain in the first of the atp cup quarter—finals in sydney, after nick kyrgios beat cameron norrie in straight sets. you can get all the latest sports news at our website, that's bbc.com/sport. but from me katie shanahan and the rest of the sport today team, goodbye. hello. weatherwise, it's pretty much a case of you name it and we've got it coming our way in the next few days. we've got a chilly start to thursday to the far north of the uk with a patchy frost and some fog. further south, it's unseasonably mild. this area of low pressure will bring wet and windy weather to a central swathe of the uk early on in the day. later on, the south—west gets targeted by another low, heavy rain, thundery and a risk of gales. here is the rush hour across northern england and southern scotland,

snow for the higher routes of the pennines, some heavy rain and some squally winds. all of that pulling out into the north sea as the morning wears on. quite a cutting north—easterly wind, though, following on behind, so chilly for those north sea coasts. by the afternoon, our next low coming in to the south—west, that's set to produce some heavy rain. strong winds, particularly, for the isles of scilly and for the channel islands, 12 degrees, and contrast that to just 3 in aberdeen. through thursday evening and overnight into friday, some very heavy rain tracks across southern england as this low heads off into the continent, and then, by friday morning, the pressure is building. the winds fall light, the skies clear and it will start to turn pretty chilly. perhaps an exception being the far south—east where the cloud will only clear towards the end of the night, so not so much cooling here, but quite widely a frost first thing on friday. a lot of dry weather to get the day under way.

light winds and sunshine but cloud gathering towards the north—west through the afternoon, the wind picking up and the rain starting to approach. but friday's temperatures, notice just 6 or 7 degrees, a much cooler story overall. but overnight friday into saturday, we start to pick up a strong south—westerly air stream, strengthening south—westerly winds and very mild air floods into the uk for saturday. that's important because warmer air holds more moisture and that's going to make this front all the more potent to the north of the uk, bringing heavy rain before it clears through during the second half of the weekend. so, here is saturday, a very wet day for parts of scotland, northern ireland and northern england. 100mm of rain possible in some spots with i think localised flooding before that system clears away. warnings have been issued for the rain, also for the wind, quite widespread gales at least until the middle part of saturday. by sunday, the front away into the continent, the skies are looking clearer, the wind is lighter, but we've moved back into cooler

air, so we're down into single figures with some wintry flurries in the north—west.
