with victories tonight. title—chasing city had to come from behind to beat aston villa 2—1 whenjohn mcginn stole in after just 20 seconds for the hosts. england's phil foden continued his brilliant form, with another goal to level matters, before rodri put city ahead five minutes before the break when he got on the end of a bernardo silva cross, taking them 11 points clear at the top. there was one downside, though, for city — john stones given a straight red card for this challenge after a var check. it means he'll miss sunday's efl cup final. so it's been a tough week for all those clubs involved in the european super league, and the city boss pep guardiola was asked whether it's been a distraction for him and his players. after the game, it doesn't look like, so we refocused. everybody was concerned all around the world, not only here, but the players refocused. yesterday they trained really well and really put out an

incredible performance. we are so close. two days after the sacking ofjose mourinho, tottenham moved to within two points of the premier league's top four with a 2—1 win over southampton. stuart pollitt has more. ahead of this match with saints, spurs fans were clear who they see as a sinner. since they last played, chairman daniel levy's joined and left a new leak as well as sacked a manager. the special one's and replaced by the young one, ryan mason the first premier league boss under 30 spurs skipper hugo lloris's five years older than his manager that showed his agility to somehow keep out southampton early on. the visitors could not be denied for long, james ward—prowse delivering the corner, danny ings supplying the finish. levy's week was not getting any better. thought no more second—best until the second half. a touch of magic from gareth bale got

them level and his old club were suddenly under siege. son hueng—min thought he had scored, but a var review caught lucas moura just off—site. in a final minute though, the video referee came to spurs aid, judging the style to be just inside the area. without the injured harry kane, his strike partner was willing and able to convert the penalty. they will be no spot in the european super league, but a place in the champions league, for tottenham, thatis champions league, for tottenham, that is still a possibility. stuart pollitt, bbc news. there were seven games in the championship this evening as the race for the play—off spots and to avoid relegation heads towards its climax. rotherham united edged closer to the drop and a return to the third tier with defeat at middlesbrough. rotherham had led, but neil warnock�*s side turned it round to win 2—1 at the new york stadium. elsewhere, bournemouth solidified their place in the play—offs with a 4—1 win at millwall. chelsea moved a step closer to retaining their women's super league

title in an entertaining top of the table clash at manchester city. jo currie was there. this game may have finished in a draw but it's venice chelsea in the race for the w sl title, with the now resting very much in their own hands. the first half saw plenty of excitement, drama and goals. chelsea going ahead, and out swinging corner met by sam kerr, who swung highest with a thumping hundred you hit the back of the net. city replied three minutes later. there was chloe kelly to turn it in from close range. chelsea, though, they kept pershing. sam kerr brought down, referee pointed to the spot, and the penalty put away. after the break, city leveled, who took advantage of a couple of chelsea defence errors to set up a thrilling finish, but 2—2, it ended. it means chelsea now go

into the final two matches of the season with a two—point advantage and a goal advantage of plus five over city for stub and means, potentially, they could wrap up the title when they play next at spurs on the 2nd of may. and as for city, they are hoping chelsea slip—up somewhere. in the scottish premiership, rangers maintained their unbeaten run this season despite a late stjohnstone equaliser. liam craig's stoppage—time penalty earned them a 1—1 draw and it means that steven gerrard's side can no longer reach 100 points. elsewhere, second—placed celtic left it late to draw 1—1 at aberdeen, while kilmarnock moved up to tenth with victory over dundee united. that means hamilton academical are three points from safety with three matches left to play after motherwell ended a five—game winless run, beating the accies i—0. celtic have beaten rangers 1—0 at home to narrow the gap on their scottish women's premier league rivals. mariah lee scored the only goal of the game as the hoops moved to within two points of their opponents, while leaders glasgow city were 2—1 winners at hibernian, moving three points clear as they

chase a 14th consecutive title. three—time champion mark williams is through to the second round at this year's world snooker championship in sheffield. the welsh potting machine was a 10—4 winner over sam craigie at the crucible and will now play another former champion injohn higgins for a place in the quarterfinals. for all today's results, head to the bbc sport website. britain's simon yates has retained the lead at the tour of the alps after stage 3, as he prepares for the giro d'italia next month. italy's gianni moscon, in the dark blue of the british ineos grenadiers team, was fastest to finish from a breakaway to win stage 3. yates finished safely in the main group, saving energy for the hardest stage of the race tomorrow. he currently leads by 45 seconds. and for more on that and every thing else, of course, the bbc sport website, but that is all your sport

for now. hello. where yesterday a weather front produced cloud and a little rain in scotland and northern ireland, today has been dry with plenty of sunshine this afternoon. that weather front works southward across england and wales with some cloud. though, frustratingly, if you wanted some rain on the garden, there's been barely any rain. following on, a new area of high pressure building across the uk and bringing a lot of dry weather for the rest of the week and indeed the upcoming weekend. the satellite pictures showing where we have the cloud today and even that started to break up this afternoon. we saw the odd shower into southwest england, but any of those fading quickly tonight, and we are left with a dry, clear night. for the most part winds are light, though it is quite breezy through the english channel and into cornwall. but on the clear skies, expecting another widespread frost with perhaps the exception of cornwall, western fringes of wales, the far west of scotland

and for some in northern ireland. the coldest spots tonight in scotland and northern england, “4 or —5. another look at the area of high pressure across thursday, as you can imagine a lot of dry and settled weather but may be an early mist and fog patch, they will not last very long. some areas are cloud drifting through northern scotland that may produce an isolated shower, but the vast bringing a dry, sunny day. still quite breezy across southern england into south wales, but the northeasterly wind not as pronounced on the north sea coast, so you have to around eight or nine degrees today. temperatures will be higher tomorrow and some spots reaching 17, cardiff and manchester for example. thursday evening, we keep the sunshine, thursday night doesn't look quite as chilly, though we can see a touch of frost as friday begins, and friday, spot the difference. still areas of cloud around in northern scotland, don't be surprised if you catch an isolated shower, the odd spot of rain. for most, it will be another dry,

sunny day and a warmer day as temperatures head towards i9 celsius in manchester and glasgow, for example. over the weekend, temperatures will come down a little bit, perhaps more cloud around. but for most, it is going to be dry, with lots of sunshine, still some chilly nights around, and a touch of frost cannot be completely ruled out. that's your latest forecast.
