the lead at goodison park just after the hour mark and with 13 minutes remaining it was bernardo silva who made sure of the result to make it 17 successive wins for pep guardiola's side. in the night's other match, burnley and fulham drew 1—all at turf moor. fulham took the lead through 0la aina's rather unorthodox finish just after half time. it didn't last long though, ashley barnes equalised for the hosts just three minutes later. it's a result that suits burnley more than fulham, who remain 18th in the table. in scotland, celtic had a david turnbull goal to thank for their 1—0 win over 4th placed aberdeen which closes the gap on rangers but still leaves them 15 points adrift of their glasgow rivals while st mirren and hamilton academical played out a 1—1 draw. italian giantsjuventus will need to overturn a 2—1 deficit in the second leg of their last 16 champions league tie after losing to porto in portugal. while borussia dortmund despite struggling in the bundesliga domestically will take a 3—2 lead into the second

after a couple of upsets at the australian open, the semi—final line up is complete the world number one and home favourite ashleigh barty says she was heartbroken to go out, while the 20 time grand slam champion rafael nadal says he would offer no excuses for his 5 set defeat. patrick gearey reports. the match the tournament has way to far came a day too early. on thursday this classic would've had a crowd. on wednesday just a flock. for the first half it on only one winner rafael nadal strolled through the first two sets. tsitsipas a blur of day—glo energy. and only rarely did he forced nadal to bend his troubled back. tsitsipas, a man loves to travel looks lost and yet he was merely choosing his path. in the third set tie—break he found himself. nadal has lost his first set of the tournament. it made him suddenly older and angrier. he lost the fourth and the match hurtled into a decider. every shot loaded with meaning. game 11 tsitsipas force a break point nadal lost his grip and his serve. nadal had only twice before lost a match from two sets up.

he fought to the last point but the last shot would be from tsitsipas. the last word was tricky. i'm speechless. i have no words to describe whatjust happened on the court. my tennis speaks for itself. it's an unbelievable feeling to be able to fight at such a level. barty will surely have missed the company more than most. the world number one at her home slam. imagine what the crowds reaction would be when she did this to break muchova. barty won the first set and broke again in the 2nd. in the melbourne heat muchova's world started to spin. she took a medical timeout, got her blood pressure checked and returned renewed. despite everything, she seized back the break in one back a set. into a third and muchova broke again. the match turned on its head. with the fans in the arena should now be up against

hundreds of australians. instead she faced only once. that makes everything simpler. and perhaps for barty, even tougher. it's heartbreaking, of course. but will it deter me in the fact that we had a really successful start? absolutely not. the sun will come up tomorrow. after knocking out the favourite in reaching herfirst grand slam semifinal little wonder karolina muchova needed a minute. enjoy the peace, it won't stay quiet for long. the england cricket coach chris silverwood has apologised for the way that moeen ali's departure from the test squad for the remainder of the series against india was handled. captainjoe root says he didn't express himself clearly when telling the media yesterday that moeen had "chosen" to return home. the plan had always been to stand moeen down for the last two tests as part of their rotation policy but because he had played so little cricket, missing the sri lanka series with coronavirus and also the first test against india,

he was given the option to stay on. it was a unique situation. the fact that he had spent so long in isolation and how he had just broken back into the team. the question was posed to him. we try to work as close as we can with our players to make sure that we get the best opportunities as well as looking after them. so, he was asked but ultimately, we felt it was the right decision for him to go home. great britain's elliot giles ran the second—quickest indoor 800m in history, also breaking the british record held by sebastian coe since 1983. the 26—year—old clocked one minute 43.63 seconds to beat compatriot jamie webb in poland, for a third victory of the series with only four meets having been held to date. and the russian side rubin kazan's players have been keeping themselves busy as they prepare to return to action next weekend. they've been practicing this

set—piece in their hotel corridor. they're just coming out of a three month winter break in russia and when it's cold and there's snow outside you have to get creative. everything else you can go to the bbc sport website. and that's all the sport for now. quite a mixed bag out there at the moment. plenty of heavy rain acro55 western and northern areas, and thursday is going to be a mixed bag as well. windy out towards the west, and there's a spell of rain on the way. so this is what it looks like for the early hours. the weather front is crossing western parts of the country, the heaviest of the rain will remain out towards the west through early thursday. eastern areas damp but not quite so wet. that weather front won't reach you until later on in the morning. i think all of us are in for at least

a good dose of rain blessing a couple of hours. especially acro55 couple of hours. especially across england and wales. i towards the north more showers likely and then showers for the rest as well. a real mixed picture and will feel chilly in the strong winds blowing off the atlantic. 0n in the strong winds blowing off the atlantic. on friday another spell of wind on the way. the weekend is looking milder.
