7:33 pm
the battle of the bridge after a player brawl. there were echoes of that today. it was 2—2 again at stamford bridge, with spurs�* harry kane equalising deep into injury time, but the defining image of another fiery encounter was of the managers, thomas tuchel and antonio conte, clashing during and after the game and sent off. imran sidat reports. if there was bad blood between his clubs before this game, things were about to intensify. it all started so well for chelsea. the defender produced a finish that any striker would be proud of. that is how it stayed until the hour mark when the game sprung into life. harry kane was on goal there was only one outcome. then again�*s first big flashpoint. spurs went up the other end and they were all square. 0n flashpoint. spurs went up the other end and they were all square. on one of the hottest days of the year, tensions were beginning to boil over
7:34 pm
in the dugout. chelsea seem to use that as extra motivation and the pressure paid off. rhys james, the man in the right place at the right time. how thomas tuchel enjoyed that one. but he wasn't celebrating for long. in the six minute of injury time, harry kane made amends to salvage a draw. both managers were shown a red card after the final whistle, with the fallout set to continue for some time to come. i'm sure we will hear more of that. both managers sent off, red carded. the fa will surely have a look. but had they both comes down afterwards? there is no hard feelings. ifeel like a fair tickle from him and a fair tackle from me. if injury happens and nobody wants it between the player, but we did not insult each other, we did not hit each other. we were fighting for our
7:35 pm
teams and that is it. from my site, absolutely no hard feelings. it is part of it. i'm surprised that we both got a red card for that. but 0k. ., , ., ., , 0k. for me, it is not a problem. also because — 0k. for me, it is not a problem. also because the _ 0k. for me, it is not a problem. also because the most - 0k. for me, it is not a problem. | also because the most important thing _ also because the most important thing is _ also because the most important thing is always the game. the way that the two teams played. if something outside, i think it is not important — emotions were also high at the city ground for newly promoted nottingham forest. but ina but in a more positive way. they have their first points of the season, beating west ham i—0. jo currie reports. it has been 23 years since nottingham forest last played a premier league match at home. it's a long wait for these fans who soaked up the sunshine for the visit to west ham,
7:36 pm
and it was the home side who started stronger, keeping the hammers' keeper busy. until the visitors struck on the counter, tucking into the corner, but celebrations were short lived, a quick check of var showed a body check from michail antonio in the build—up. and things were about to go from bad to worse for west ham as forest almost immediately went the other end and scored themselves. not the club's finest goal, but try to tell these fans that. after the break the visitors was straight out of the blocks, henderson got himself back up the rebound. at the other end, johnson thought he had doubled the lead until the var said no for offside. scott mckenna gave away a penalty for handball in the box. but once again there was no way past dean henderson and eventually the hosts were able to see out the remaining minutes and claim a historic win, and one that really gets their premier league return
7:37 pm
off the mark. so, forest are up and running, that's a second defeat for west ham — let's hearfrom the managers. i thought we deserved to win, the way we played in the first half, we were excellent, the better team, which we should do at home but still we had to do that against a really good team, created good moments, would have liked to have created more chances but i thought if any team is going to go 1—0 up i thought it would be us. against the run of play, you understand that can happen. but we kept going. we got a good goal. we've got to realise that this is what it is. you have to do much better. but it wasn't that, we had enough chances and we could have eradicated a defensive lapse by the goals today, we hit the bar a couple of times, missed quite a few chances and missed a penalty as well,
7:38 pm
so that could have been put aside and you might have forgotten about that but today it counted. celtic are back on top of the scottish premiership after thrashing kilmarnock 5—0 at rugby park. the champions have started the season with three wins out of three, as have rangers, but celtic are ahead of their title rivals on goal difference thanks to today's result. reginaldo rosario reports. they don't get tougher than back—to—back games against the old firm. after defeat at rangers last weekend, kilmarnock welcomed celtic. right from the off, it looked like it would be a long day from the promoted side. celtic got the lead after six minutes with some help from the woodwork. they usually follow up with a second. a sizzling effort from distance. and soon it was three. some improvisation earning a second goal in as many games. to the defender�*s own surprise. kilmarnock thought they
7:39 pm
had stemmed the tide in the second half, but eventually a fourth arrived. calf staff felt heading home. the best was set for last. kilmarnock in a spin. a5 star goal to cap off a 5—star performance. let's have a quick look at some of the other headlines... adam rossington has set a new record in the hundred, the fastest 50. he reached his half—ton at headingley offjust 15 balls as london spirit beat the northern superchargers by seven wickets. their women's side lost in the double header, though. also, a double header at the oval where southern brave's women beat the invincibles by 12 runs. smriti mandhana's 46 for the brave helped them reach 153 and invincibles fell short in their chase. the men are playing now. and stoffel vandoorne is formula e's new champion after the season went down to the final race in seoul.

in a months time, the traditional european harvest will be complete. currently, farmers are working around the clock to cut corn, with strawberries and raspberries already picked in june and july. farming has always embraced the latest technology, from the plough through to tractors and beyond. but it is under pressure. fuel and fertiliser costs are rising, labour is hard to get, and still consumers and supermarkets are demanding cheaper and cheaper prices. added to that, climate change is affecting how our crops grow, when they need to be harvested and how much water there is available for them. the global population is expected to hit ten billion by 2050. that's a lot more mouths to feed. it's a perfect storm, and things are going to have to change. we've seen in the past how verticalfarming could play an important role in that,
7:45 pm
but it is still a pretty new technology. but laura goodwin has been to see a new piece of tech that could take vertical farming to the next level. a warm, sunny day like today is a gift for farmers, who very much rely on the climate and their own expertise to ensure their plants are healthy and happy. but what if they could control the climate? and what if they found a way that the plants could tell the farmer what they needed? 0ne agritech company, gardin, thinks they've worked out how to do exactly this. well, what do we have here? one of our partner vertical farm facilities where we've installed our sensors. wow, look at all this! and it smells incredible. chillies on this side. got chillies here. we have some flowers down here — edible flowers. some strawberries. there's 25 trays high here, growing a number of species.
