plenty to come, but we'll start with the premier league, where southampton boss ralph hasenhuttl is hopeful that his side's draw against chelsea will be the start of good things to come. the 1—1 draw ended the saints�* run of six successive defeats in the league. but the failure to win for chelsea meant thomas tuchel�*s side missed the chance to strengthen their position in the top four. nick parrot reports. its more than six years since southampton last avoided defeat at home to chelsea —— it is. with the london side's resurgence since thomas tuchel took charge and are running rings around their hosts, the outcome at st marys seemed inevitable. but they spurned their few chances to capitalise on possession. it looked like the saints would need a miracle. surprisingly, their prayers were answered. in theirfirst surprisingly, their prayers were answered. in their first threatening attack, takumi minamino show chelsea how to finish. it was the first time

they had fallen behind under thomas tuchel. southampton boss my problems this season stem from not being able to hold on a lead. alex mccarthy was able to keep kurt zouma at bay but when danny ings�* rash tackle gave chelsea a penalty, there was no stopping mason mount. southampton weren't going to try and hold on for a point as jannik vestergaard came close to restoring their lead. but know this —— neither side could fashion a winner. know this -- neither side could fashion a winner.— know this -- neither side could fashion a winner. after six points are taken no _ fashion a winner. after six points are taken no point _ fashion a winner. after six points are taken no point in _ fashion a winner. after six points are taken no point in the - fashion a winner. after six pointsi are taken no point in the premier league, it is not so easy to show but i think we did what we can do, we pushed ourselves to the limits and a point was today the limit for us. ~ ., ., ., . ~ and a point was today the limit for us. we need to attack the spaces behind the _ us. we need to attack the spaces behind the defence _ us. we need to attack the spaces behind the defence better- us. we need to attack the spaces behind the defence better and, i us. we need to attack the spaces behind the defence better and, ifi us. we need to attack the spaces i behind the defence better and, if we don't do _ behind the defence better and, if we don't do it. — behind the defence better and, if we don't do it, it gets harder and harder to score. there are enough situations— harder to score. there are enough situations where we can be decisive but we _ situations where we can be decisive but we didn't take them today. so but we didn't take them today. sc really but we didn't take them today. really full but we didn't take them today. sr really full southampton, after ending their record run of six defeats. chelsea know they will have to up their game against atletico

madrid in the champions league on tuesday. west brom remain in trouble at the bottom of the table following their goalless draw with burnley. but sam allardyce's side may see this as a useful point having played more than half the match with ten men. a var check saw semi ajayi sent off for a handball when he was the last man. burnley thought they might have had a penalty in the second half when kyle bartley handled, but that wasn't given, and, in the end, west brom finished the stronger, matheus pereira missing this great chance in the closing stages. a point isn't really enough for them — they are still 11 points off safety. underway right now is the merseyside derby. everton have not won at anfield this century. but richarlison got them off to a great start — putting them ahead in just the third minute. it just the third minute. has just kicked off in the sec half, it has just kicked off in the second half, still 1—0 to everton. fulham host sheffield united at eight o'clock.

northampton can regard sandy park in a new light. seven years since they last won there, victory at last with an astonishing climax. they went ahead before the champions struck back with a try from yeandle. a defensive battle continued until symonds crossed the line, leaving his joe francis symonds crossed the line, leaving hisjoe francis with the kick to win it but his move was too slow, send ad by the delighted players, who kicked it into the stands. three red cards were flourished between leicester and wasps. these are the saints and sinner, putting his side ahead but his side down to 14 when he was dismissed for a tackle on ben morris. that was evened up when wasps lost kieran brookes for a rash

challenge but a third red card was shown, this time to leave and berg, when he led with his shoulder on josh bassett. fourth hosted third at the stoop with harlequins taking on sale. harlequins have won their last three premiership contest. they were on the back foot for half an hour before joe marchand on the back foot for half an hour beforejoe marchand struck on the back foot for half an hour before joe marchand struck with on the back foot for half an hour beforejoe marchand struck with two tries in three minutes. the sharks have lost only once away from home since august. they scored two tries in a row, the second from robert du preez, but the quins held on and move up to third. in the pro 14, scarlets kept alive their hopes of qualifying for next season's heineken champions cup. they had a comprehensive 41—17 bonus—point victory over benetton in llanelli. jac morgan scored two of scarlets' six tries. three other games this evening. ospreys are currently playing

zebre — you can follow bbc radio wales commentary of that on the bbc sport website, where there will also be coverage of those later games too. covid—i9 is continuing to spread within the french squad ahead of their six nations game against scotland next sunday. winger gabin villiere and prop mohamad haouas are the latest players to test positive. it follows the news yesterday that scrum half antoine dupont had returned a positive test. earlier in the week, head coach fabien galthie and assistant william servat began isolating following the news they both had coronavirus. naomi osaka said she was gratefulfor the energy of the crowd, after winning the australian open. that is her fourth grand slam title, and it maintains her 100 per cent record in majorfinals. she beatjennifer brady in straight sets, as adam wild reports

at a time where little in tennis has felt certain, the threat of naomi osaka is perhaps one of the few constants. but for a tournament that has taken place against the odds, it felt fitting that here also was a finalist few expected. jennifer brady spent her first two weeks in australia in isolation, forced to practise in a hotel room, yet here she was holding her nerve in her first grand slam final. from lockdown, she was a set down. a momentary misjudgment against an opponent like osaka, that really goes unpunished. that rarely goes unpunished. osaka took the first set with the next point and from there, she accelerated like only a player of her quality can. ruthless and relentless, offering brady little. ifeel like playing a grand slam right now is a super privilege and is something i will not take for granted, thank you for this opportunity. atjust 23, this is already osaka's fourth grand slam title.

an uncertain year and an uncertain tournament, but you can be sure osaka will win more. a really good win for naomi osaka. well, ourtennis correspondent russell fuller is here with us now. you were covering that. i wonder about the stature of naomi osaka within the sport and i suppose everyone is looking for the successor to serena williams. i think now she is the player with which the rest of the tour no measures itself. that doesn't mean that serena williams is still not an enormous factor and she put in a very persuasive case to say she can win more grand slams in the last couple of weeks, but, certainly on the hard courts, naomi osaka, having won the us open followed by the australian open for the second time in her career and having gone 21 matches unbeaten, has this aura now that makes it difficult for the players, particularly in major finals. the next question is can she

do it on the clay of roland garros from the end of may and then conquer the grass of wimbledon? i would think so in time but grass is not a service she is familiar with and, in the past, she has been anxious about slipping and sliding and losing her footing but you suspect, in time, she will find a solution. we footing but you suspect, in time, she will find a solution.— she will find a solution. we have the men's _ she will find a solution. we have the men's final— she will find a solution. we have the men's final tomorrow, - she will find a solution. we have| the men's finaltomorrow, novak the men's final tomorrow, novak djokovic up against medvedev. is djokovic up against medvedev. is djokovic the odds on favourite? he has djokovic the odds on favourite? he: has to be favour given he has won the open eight times before and never lost a final, but do not be surprised if medvedev wins this title. he has been in a grand slam title. he has been in a grand slam title before, losing to rafael no doubt in the us open in 2019. like osaka, he has won 20 matches coming into the spinal and beat on a string of top ten players, including novak djokovic, in the atp finals in london in november. the only player in the top ten he has unbeaten since november is roger federer, who is
