for the past week, they have been for the past week, particularly across the south with highs of 48 degrees. factor in the wind and it will seem colder. we see this ridge of high pressure building in for friday and for the start of the weekend. it will calm down, when standing right at showers fading away, moss sunshine on friday and because he cloud pushing into the far north—west, but for england and wales it is another fine day on saturday. hello. a very warm welcome to the bbc sport centre. you're watching sportsday with me ben croucher. coming up... with the rising tensions

between russia and ukraine — will uefa take the champions league final away from st petersburg? we hear from troy deeney on why he wants to increase education on black, asian and minority ethnic history. and praying it's not all over — james anderson speaks out for the first time since being dropped by england for their tour of the west indies. also coming up in the programme... we hearfrom a pioneer of para—climbing who's blazing a trail in leeds to make the sport more accessible. and going loco in acupulco — just what made alexander zverev do this? hello and welcome to sportsday. f1 testing in barcelona and tennis in dubai on the way too but we will start with st

petersburg. currently the host of this season's champions league final. but tensions surrounding a potential invasion of ukraine. political sanctions have already been imposed but could sporting ones follow? joe lynskey reports. st petersburg is vladimir putin is home town, it's also the venue for this years champions league final. this is the gas probab arena where as it stands, two teams come out on may 28. but now those who run the game are under diplomatic pressure. i think it inconceivable that major international football tournaments can take place in russia after as i say, the invasion of a sovereign country. i say, the invasion of a sovereign count . ., �* say, the invasion of a sovereign count . , ., ., country. i don't believe that you go ahead and st _ country. i don't believe that you go ahead and st petersburg _ country. i don't believe that you go ahead and st petersburg for - country. i don't believe that you go ahead and st petersburg for the i ahead and st petersburg for the predicates wrong at the stage with what russia is doing internationally to have _ what russia is doing internationally to have a _ what russia is doing internationally to have a football tournament there. uefa is _ to have a football tournament there. uefa is almost certain to switch the

venue but it could cost them. this is a russian state company who back uefa with tens of millions of pounds. in turn their brand gets to be seenjust look around pounds. in turn their brand gets to be seen just look around the pitch at chelsea last night. but they are no normal sponsor. it sells gas not to customers but to governments. so what does it get from football? gets visibility and — what does it get from football? gets visibility and it _ what does it get from football? gets visibility and it also _ what does it get from football?

to covid. now this takes a different, sanctions on russia step up different, sanctions on russia step up in the west but for now uefa weights and a final decision could yet take weeks.— weights and a final decision could yet take weeks. russia is that uefa member, yet take weeks. russia is that uefa member. it's _ yet take weeks. russia is that uefa member, it's one _ yet take weeks. russia is that uefa member, it's one of— yet take weeks. russia is that uefa member, it's one of the _ yet take weeks. russia is that uefa member, it's one of the 55 - yet take weeks. russia is that uefa | member, it's one of the 55 member associations. so we shouldn't necessarily expect uefa to take sides. uefa is going to approach this in a very balanced, fair way. i wouldn't expect anything to come from uefa into the very end of march, may be the start of april by which time hopefully will will then have happened is the situation in east ukraine but also in relation to russia as well will have clarified it so. in russia as well will have clarified it so. :: ' i~ russia as well will have clarified itso. ::'j~ russia as well will have clarified itso. ii'f~ it so. in 2018 russia hosted the world cup. _ it so. in 2018 russia hosted the world cup. it — it so. in 2018 russia hosted the world cup, it was _ it so. in 2018 russia hosted the world cup, it was four - it so. in 2018 russia hosted the world cup, it was four years - it so. in 2018 russia hosted the world cup, it was four years on | it so. in 2018 russia hosted the - world cup, it was four years on from the annexation of crimea. this time football is under greater pressure to move a champions league showpiece in the midst of a crisis. so who will be playing in that final? manchester united are long shots but their last 16 tie

against atletico madrid is expected to be a closely fought contest. both sides have patchy domestic form but with the likes of david de gea and cristiano ronaldo returning to madrid, united could well get a hostile reception at the wanda metropolitano. that's where we can find our football correspondentjohn murray. well, there's a lovely feeling outside the metropolitan i know i had of this first leg put up with that atletico madrid supporters gathered all around actually, some in the car park are having drinks party in the roots of their cars open just getting ready for the match. the tide that it is, i think it's quite a tough point to predict, don't you? it feels like it could really, genuinely go either way. that's probably down to the seasons that both teams are having. atletico madrid won the title last season but haven't been able to follow up with that same quality consistently. manchester united on the other hand

have been as inconsistent as rees ever seen them. i think there's a real feel of uncertainty among the crowd. i think everybody is expecting a good don't think either sets of bands have probably had a sets of bands have probably had a set of manager believe their team to come here and keep a clean sheet and defend anything. we could be in for a good time. mil defend anything. we could be in for a good time-— a good time. all of these people around here. — a good time. all of these people around here, i— a good time. all of these people around here, i would _ a good time. all of these people around here, i would think - a good time. all of these people i around here, i would think almost all of them will be planning to give cristiano ronaldo a really hostile reception. cristiano ronaldo a really hostile rece tion. �* cristiano ronaldo a really hostile recetion. �* , ., , cristiano ronaldo a really hostile recetion. �* , . , ., reception. i'm sure that every one of these fans _ reception. i'm sure that every one of these fans is _ reception. i'm sure that every one of these fans is really _ reception. i'm sure that every one of these fans is really looking - of these fans is really looking forward to seeing him come back to show him how they still feel about him. there is no getting away from the tremendous career he's had at what he managed to achieve when he was only a few miles away from where we are right now. there are many different things that could transpire on the pitch today which will add to the atmosphere. but i think on the pitch, it should be a real intense occasion.— real intense occasion. really lookinu real intense occasion. really looking forward _ real intense occasion. really looking forward to _ real intense occasion. really looking forward to it. - real intense occasion. really looking forward to it. you i real intense occasion. really| looking forward to it. you will real intense occasion. really - looking forward to it. you will be able to hear our common tree on five

live tonight and bbc sounds. john murray in madrid. three games in the premier league tonight too. second bottom burnley host spurs. third bottom watford play crystal palace whilst liverpool can close to within 3 points of manchester city if they can beat leeds. dundee versus st mirren in scotland meanwhile is off due to a waterlogged pitch. it's almost two years since that controversial champions league game between liverpool and atletico madrid. it was the last football match before the first covid lockdown in the uk and since then both the sport and society has changed. clubs have had to adapt to live with the threat of the virus and manchester united have done that by hiring the sport's first hygiene director. george olden's been telling the bbc�*s football news show exactly he's been doing. through our partnership we've essentially mapped the fans journey around old trafford to put ourselves in the fans shoes and identify areas we can make everyone safer and healthier when going to the football. that's involved is mapping

over 380,000 hijane football. that's involved is mapping over 380,000 hi jane touch football. that's involved is mapping over 380,000 hijane touch points, for example in applying the same kind of science we might apply to a hospital. so bringing that clinical experience in bringing that scientific background in to help everyone stay safe when visiting stadiums like old trafford. enland have the chance to win the arnold clark cup tonight. they're facing germany in wolverhampton as part of their preparations for this summer's euros. with draws against canada and spain, manager sarina weigman has called on her side to be more ruthless but could have arguably their toughest match against a team ranked third in the world? 0ur reporterjo currie is at molineux. jo — england and wiegman have been ticking along nicely in the last few months — still unbeaten — what can we expect from tonight's game? certainly i think the fans tonight will not be hoping for a battle intent with any england germany class. some of the permutations of the evening come in ligaments it's a nice game with the tournament still very much in their own hands. they could still become the the arnold

club cup but if things don't go well they could also finished bottom of they could also finished bottom of the poor teams for the earliest maine beat canada i— nails with the bat sets up two say very nicely for topics and we get a 2— no victory that we ended the trophy for the peak they would wonder i didn't know it will come down to yellow cards counted them and stay for the plenty up counted them and stay for the plenty up to play part notjust goals but also disciplined to play big part and i put up the one think they want to see is goals and ruthlessness. england has had a very solid opening two games in this tournament picking up two games in this tournament picking up two drawers but they've only scored one goal. very much open to keep intact is her aunt run which is that of zen she was appointed back in september. germany ranked third in september. germany ranked third in the world, still one of the powerhouses of women's football however the scrod that a traveller to england have been completely depleted through injury and through covid. up to 17 players have been made unavailable to them. england have only ever beaten germany wants, that was back in the 2015 world cup in canada. they've never beaten

germany on home soil so we take into account the germany of that so many players out tonight, england a plane home there may never be a better time to get that first win for the kick—off here is at 730, that's full match commentary over the bbc website. , . ., ., time you whizz through some of the other stories you might be interested in... mark cavendish crashed early on, but managed to complete stage four of the uae tour. it finished with a battle between adam yates and tour de france champion taday pogarcher. the slovenian had enough energy left to take the victory and the overall lead. britain's lizzie deignan is pregnant for a second time and won't race again until next year. that means she won't defend her paris—roubaix title or take part in the first women's tour de france stage race for more than 30 years injuly. she said she's "incredibly grateful" for her team's "complete support". and phil mickelson is to take a break from golf after what he called reckeless comments about the proposed saudi super league. it was revealed last week he had concerns about saudi arabia's human rights record but was prepared

to overlook that in order to put pressure on the pga tour. england's all—time leading wickets takerjames anderson says he is praying his international career isn't over after being dropped for their forthcoming tour to the west indies. england are due to land in the carribbean on friday without their two most prolific bowlers — with widespread surprise when both he and stuart broad were omitted. anderson's been speaking publically for the first time since the news broke on the tailenders podcast. been quite a few checks between myself and particular getting an initial frustration and anger out i think once that was gone now it's really trying to look to stuff that we can effect. because of dug deep quite a lot over the last 20 years at times. (this is at the end but if i never play for england again i know of that amazing people around maybe to support me. well listening to that is our corresponentjoe wilson. joe — you've been speaking to joe root today and a lot

for the england captain to reflect on. absolutely. 0ne absolutely. one thing joe wright said today is that he still feels grateful to be england's captain in the wake of the ashes. when it comes to broad anderson i got the impression thatjoe root was kind of walking a bit of a type row, a bit of a balancing act for him today. because someone money and he doesn't want to write off brought in anderson, not least because he may be asking both of them to open the bowling for him come the england summit, the first test against new zealand put up at the same time he needs to see and feel positive about this opportunity of touring the west indies, three test matches that without his all—time leading wicket takers. i asked joe route whether the absence of broad and anderson have freed up of the players in the squad got whether it freed up him as captain. let's have a listen to some of his response to that.— of his response to that. echoing thin . s we

of his response to that. echoing things we come _ of his response to that. echoing things we come away _ of his response to that. echoing things we come away from - of his response to that. echoing things we come away from the l of his response to that. echoing - things we come away from the store victors _ things we come away from the store victors and _ things we come away from the store victors and now we've also gained a lot of— victors and now we've also gained a lot of knowledge on other players and then— lot of knowledge on other players and then there is early to head back into thing. — and then there is early to head back into thing, were in a relation position _ into thing, were in a relation position i_ into thing, were in a relation position. i also think, from sin as i position. i also think, from sin as i don't _ position. i also think, from sin as i don't wanted to sound like it's a development at all, it's not, it's about_ development at all, it's not, it's about going there and winning, absolutely. but we got a great opportunity for those guys to into that space and better everyone for it, that space and better everyone for it. better — that space and better everyone for it, betterthis that space and better everyone for it, better this team for it. that is the point- _ it, better this team for it. that is the point. england _ it, better this team for it. that is the point. england have - it, better this team for it. that is the point. england have to - it, better this team for it. that is the point. england have to win. i it, better this team for it. that is - the point. england have to win. look at the last 12 months, 13 test matches just one victory for england how did they win a test match? clearly it is normally on the back ofjoe root scoring loads of bronze. so you may be wondering why he's watching his position and batting orderfrom numberfour to number order from number four to number three. orderfrom numberfour to number three. he says for the first time he actually feels comfortable about betting there in the order. the idea is he comes into bad to avert a crisis rather than coming in under

crisis. ., ., crisis rather than coming in under crisis. ., , , crisis. proof of the pudding will be in the rounds. _ crisis. proof of the pudding will be in the rounds. thank _ you very much. we are entering a brand new era of formula one, with new look cars hitting the track in barcelona for the first time. will it upset the pecking order or will we have more of that explosive rivalry between lewis hamilton and max verstappen that defined 2021? well it may be too early to answer those questions but our chief f1 writer andrew benson told us what caught his eye. it's always difficult to tell and testing was really going on. the most striking thing is been the appearance of the new cars and no one had seen until today. , red bull. they used a fake car in their launch two weeks ago when the real red bull came up this morning it was quite dramatic looking with a couple of really innovative solutions to these new regulations introduce the biggest change in formula i these new regulations introduce the biggest change in formula 1 cars in 40 years effectively. basically the two cars of stood out most in terms

of the visual impact are red bull and mercedes. probably not a huge surprise giving their successful at the moment. the interesting thing is all the cars look quite different at all the cars look quite different at a time when people thought these d regulations would be quite prescriptive. mercedes, red bulland ferrari have all done well over a hundred laps. in fact, another 14 beyond that and also top 100 labs, very impressive for the new cars in the first day of the new set of regulations. the engines are technically the same in terms of design but they've all been upgraded over the winter. so itjust goes to show the level of expertise that the teams are working at these days. we've been hearing from lewis hamilton, obviously the controversy that surrounded the finale of the 2021 season, he had interesting things to say on how he thinks these races should be run going forward. he did express a strong opinions on a couple of topics. 0ne he did express a strong opinions on a couple of topics. one of which was the importance of having non—biased

stewards. he didn't say that these stewards. he didn't say that these stewards were biased, obviously that was the inference that some people talk. the comment did come in the context of race at the end of last yearin context of race at the end of last year in which the race director, who is not a steward who should be clear, they are separate entities. did operate the rules incorrectly. he also said that he'd be happy to see one of the two new race directors, mass. he has been replaced at the abu dhabi and two people have been brought into my head like to see one of them be a woman which he said would be a great way to promote dimers to enact diversity in formula 1. birmingham city captain tory deeney has called for the teaching of black, asian and minority ethnic history and experiences to be made compulsory in england. he's launched a petition and written to the education secretaru, saying change is needed to combat stereotypes and racist beliefs from an early age. our sports editor dan roan reports.

he's been a driving force at whatever club he's played for. commentator: and who else | but the talismanic troy deeney! and now he's laying down a challenge to the government. former watford striker troy deeney telling me he wants more diversity to be mandatory in the school curriculum. no—one's saying that every single history lesson has to be about black, asian and mixed ethnicities. we are saying that over the course of a 12—month period, where kids are at school, that we can learn a little bit about everybody and keep doing that from a younger age. i think a lot of what's going on in the school curriculum right across the board is very much a horse racing mentality — that the blinkers are on and we're looking here. deeney was a key figure behind premier league players' decision to take the knee before matches in support of racial equality, and he's now written an open letter to the education secretary claiming the current system is failing children from ethnic minorities. i always find it quite disheartening, really, that the only representation we have from a black perspective is always

one of what i consider negative. we always learn about slave trade and how things were like that. and it'sjust like, well, there's a lot more. ijust realised that everyone's got a different lens on the world. as well as launching a petition, deeney�*s commissioned a yougov survey of 1,000 teachers, which he says showed 54% of those who took part believe the school system has a racial bias, while only 12% feel empowered to teach diverse topics. i feel that's very dangerous because the people we're putting in charge, or empowering to teach our kids, don't feel confident enough of in their role to talk about subjects that's happening in the world. in response, the department for education said the curriculum offers pupils the opportunity to study significant figures from black and ethnic minority backgrounds and the contributions they've made to the nation. when you talk about history, the

biggest message i have to say is never asked for anything to be removed. maybe he's out a bit more. you expect resistance? 100%. i expect resistance, i expect but already living that anyway. what if i got to fear that regard? in already living that anyway. what if i got to fear that regard?— i got to fear that regard? in wales the teaching _ i got to fear that regard? in wales the teaching of— i got to fear that regard? in wales the teaching of black _ i got to fear that regard? in wales the teaching of black and - i got to fear that regard? in wales the teaching of black and other. the teaching of black and other ethnic minority histories will soon become mandatory. now at birmingham city dini hopes his efforts will build pressure for english schools to follow suit. dan roan, bbc news. athletes at the commonwealth games in birmingham later this year, will be able to use the podium to support socialjustice causes. guidelines issues by the commonwealth games federation will allow athletes to protest in favour of racial equality, wave pride flags for lgbtq+ rights and wear clothing, badges or symbols. such behaviour is banned from the olympics. depending on what the issue is that they fail personal about that that's ok and the games does provide an

0k and the games does provide an opportunity to express themselves, as long as they do it within what we talk about as the code of conduct. it's not about athletes disrupting competition or being disrespectful or people who are part of the games. but it is providing an opportunity that if they wish to come up they can stand for something when they're on the podium or in the village. what a crazy 24 hours it's been in the world of tennis. loco indeed in acuplulco where alexander zverev has been kicked out of the mexican open for a bizarre outburst. over in dubai, andy murray's missed out on a milestone win but no problems for novak djokovic whilst in guadalajara — emma raducanu was involved in the longest match of the year — but couldn't go the distance. to dissect it all is russell fuller, our tennis correspondent. russell — tell us what happened with zverev, and why we might not have heard this end of this? absolutely not. this is the world

number three we are talking about. the olympic champion, he was incensed by a line called very late incensed by a line called very late in a doubles match he was playing alongside brazil appear which included the british player. the line going against him. at that point alexander zverev accused the empire of destroying the whole match. he swore at him repeatedly, he was very aggressive and then hitting his chairfour times nearly making contact with the umpires foot on one occasion. he's good to be in a lot of hot water here. and rightly so. he has apologised ends on social media saying that it's difficult to put into words how much i regret my behavior. he said he apologise personally to the empire. all of that will be taken into account i'm sure when they investigate. he's going to be heavily fined and potentially could be suspended from the tour. for a long way away from that of the moment. 0ver the tour. for a long way away from that of the moment. over the next few hours a supervisor on site in acapulco will i think decide to do

all of alexander zverev�*s prize money for the week an issue for the fines. they might be a major offence, they can investigate further. 0ne offence, they can investigate further. one of the penalties is potential suspension from the door. which happened in 2019 although his 60 week suspension was actually suspended and he was allowed to keep on playing as long as he kept his nose clean. on playing as long as he kept his nose clean-— on playing as long as he kept his nose clean. very much watch this sace. in dubai — andy murray and novak djokovic in action. what happened ? andy murray was beaten in straight sets 7—500 talking about a 20—year—old, the world number ten. he played a fantastic match and andy murray was not able to lead today. he is in the pattern at the moment of winning a match and losing a match after that fantastic run in sydney at the start of the air. know that djokovic winning in straight sets against and divide he's in the quarterfinals. he needs to keep

winning but if medvedev wins the title in acapulco that medvedev will take over as the world number one. he won his in the early hours of the morning. he won his in the early hours of the mornin:. a . ., he won his in the early hours of the mornin:. 1, . ,, ., ~ _, he won his in the early hours of the mornin:. ., ~ �* he won his in the early hours of the mornin. ., ~ �* . morning. back to mexico. i'm a radical note _ morning. back to mexico. i'm a radical note been _ morning. back to mexico. i'm a radical note been plane - morning. back to mexico. i'm a radical note been plane in - radical note been plane in guadalajara. we remember at the australian open she was hampered by blisters was that she's got another injury concern, doesn't she? yes. blisters was that she's got another injury concern, doesn't she? yes, we don't know — injury concern, doesn't she? yes, we don't know how _ injury concern, doesn't she? yes, we don't know how serious _ injury concern, doesn't she? yes, we don't know how serious the - injury concern, doesn't she? yes, we don't know how serious the injury - don't know how serious the injury is. it was a brutal match. three hours and 36 minutes against australia. bradycardia was set up and setting for the match of 5—3 it could've had a different outcome but she had to or three down in the set. it was still going but her left hip to hip have been strapped in a medical time of the longest matchbook women's tour so far this year even though it wasn't completed. we wait to see whether that's going to cause her any problems in the weeks to come. she is due to face the top seed in the next week and then to miami. really

frustrating having not played for a month since the australian open. as you may have noticed, her team are not asking her to play term and determinants was that she's only just turned 19. when she does play she does not want to be involved in a three and have our match which finishes with the injury. finishes with the in'ury. absolutely not. thankyou — finishes with the injury. absolutely not. thank you very _ finishes with the injury. absolutely not. thank you very much. - a student in leeds, who challeged herself to learn how to climb after being diagnosed with a progressive neuromuscular disease, is now taking on a new challenge — to help other disabled people scale new heights in the sport. lucy keyworth has started the city's first para—climbing club and our reporter sally hurst has been to meet her. student lucy is on a mission to make climbing accessible to everyone. you look at a climbing accessible to everyone. ii’fi�*l. look at a person in a wheelchair is
