started to scoop england to safety. as those around her fell, she as those around herfell, she kept her head. bringing up a vital 50. dismissed soon after, as with the amyjones to steer england to a respectable hundred 51. bettors attack straightaway making an early indent for england slowly to control. the most expensive player made a half—century as they set up a tight finish but england kept their nerve to win by 11 runs. we always knew this was going to be england's toughest match and in the end comments or test for them and they lost and alex come is a bit of a disaster from the beginning. lost and alex come is a bit of a disasterfrom the beginning. yes. disaster from the beginning. yes, the way they _ disaster from the beginning. yes, the way they played _ cricket england lost three quick wickets earlier on by going for a

beautiful in the swing and they were fantastic today and they are still some work to be done but it's peeking at the right time we're looking forward to doing that. the result means they take on pakistan on tuesday knowing that a victory will see them at the top of the group and that should mean that they avoid australia in the semifinals. how dangerous or pakistan going to be and how difficult is it that they do not meet australian to the final push you have to meet them at some stage, it'sjust a matter of push you have to meet them at some stage, it's just a matter of when and where and england will want to avoid australia and they want to finish top of when and where and england will want to avoid australia and they went and finished up the team from the previous world cup in the competition but they should not be too much of a challenge but you do want to avoid australia but you will in the final. but do want to avoid australia but you will in the final.— will in the final. but by the time he comes _ will in the final. but by the time he comes out _ will in the final. but by the time he comes out to _ will in the final. but by the time he comes out to the _ will in the final. but by the time he comes out to the finals, - will in the final. but by the time j he comes out to the finals, they were taken he comes out to the finals, they were ta ken however he comes out to the finals, they were taken however they can. england versus pakistan _ were taken however they can. england versus pakistan and _ were taken however they can. england versus pakistan and will _ were taken however they can. england versus pakistan and will give - were taken however they can. england versus pakistan and will give you - versus pakistan and will give you all the build up between now and

then. a good day for england's mens side too — stuart broad was the star performer, on day 3 of the first test against new zealand in mount maunganui. his four wickets putting the hosts in a really tough spot, as they chase an unlikely victory. craig templeton was watching. stuart called himself the nighthawk after his performance with the bat last night. his powers seemingly dwindle in the day, disappointed but he would still of the big role to play. under the stewardship of the more recognised that is, england started to soar and so did this fan that missed out on his catch. missing out on his half—century, one swipe too many it was gone for 49. luckily for england, his replacement was harry brook, the emerging talent at the score moving quickly. that is become the blueprint for the site and no one embodies it more than the captain and that shot gave ben stokes the record for test

six who did the overtake and coach printing the colon. and with a lead of 393 and with the sun setting, it was time for the nighthawk to swoop. another record tumbled with his wicked brighton anderson with his wicked brought in anderson and of most predatory pair in bowling history. broad was far from finished. and his prey now firmly in his sights. this was one of those broad spells that pure magic with the cricket ball and for five wickets the new zealand lost. i ignored who was on the other end and at the start i hit it is hard as they could, i cannot get driven but i can still be in the game and i do like the conditions of the game so far but new zealand's on top so we are not that lucky. but we're been able to borrow the right times. brought smiles for england because the lead of 331 means surely, they cannot be caught.

to the premier league now — and arsenal are back at the top of the table — after a stunning finish to their game at villa park. aston villa were 2—1 up. before oleksandr zinchenko levelled for the gunners — his first goal for the club, and then late drama saw arsenal come away with a 4—2 victory. ben croucher reports. don't write them off, just a blip or not, arsenal are well and truly in this title race but they're not doing it the easy way, but asked in the left and rattled as early as the 50 minute and developed an apparently rather than for us. still, this one and a long way to run right up the other end, and fact. keeping calm and this cauldron was proving tricky, especially when philip gave most in villa park a reason to get excited. just for you that arsenal title hopes for terminal, the turnaround alexander 2-2. 3-2

terminal, the turnaround alexander 2—2. 3—2 and surely if you could fathom it. nor the manner in which they wanted. george took aim and stoppage time. an accrual deflection greeted with affection and as martinez went hunting for the equaliser, gabrielle martinelli rounded off a much—needed victory for the side stopped to tough to get the result of the performance that we had in three days later in the morning, to come to come to this place, it is tough to do it in the second half with the passion and physicality and we have done it stop you what it is very difficult thing to do. winning a premier league is not easy to do and when combined like this will surely help though. and that win, all the more sweet for arsenal — as the champions manchester city dropped points at nottingham forest. city went ahead thanks to a rocket from bernardo silva. and had plenty of chances, erling haaland hitting the bar among them. they were still looking good for the win — until chris wood scored forest's

equaliser on the break, with less than 10 minutes to go. city losing valuable in the title race, with arsenal two points ahead to them and with a game in hand. we did a really good game and we defended without commitment and defenders but yeah, it was a really good game and we did everything, we played perfect, we had an amazing chances and we were going to see the game but that is football enough to score. we did not do it and that is why we dropped. i'm not going to deny any of that, dropped. i'm not going to deny any of that. maybe _ dropped. i'm not going to deny any of that, maybe we _ dropped. i'm not going to deny any of that, maybe we had _ dropped. i'm not going to deny any of that, maybe we had a _ dropped. i'm not going to deny any of that, maybe we had a bit - dropped. i'm not going to deny any of that, maybe we had a bit of - dropped. i'm not going to deny any of that, maybe we had a bit of luck| of that, maybe we had a bit of luck in the _ of that, maybe we had a bit of luck in the hit _ of that, maybe we had a bit of luck in the hit of— of that, maybe we had a bit of luck in the bit of luck in the second half— in the bit of luck in the second half and — in the bit of luck in the second half and we had a bit of luck with the goat— half and we had a bit of luck with the goal and loads of passes in the game, _ the goal and loads of passes in the game, no — the goal and loads of passes in the game, no one really does and escorted to the good goal and without— escorted to the good goal and without that, maybe thousand plan to stay without that, maybe thousand plan to stay in _ without that, maybe thousand plan to stay in the _ without that, maybe thousand plan to stay in the game for as long as we couldht— stay in the game for as long as we couldn't can — stay in the game for as long as we couldn't can get one moment.

and the evening game between newcastle united and liverpool is underway— 2—0 to liverpool. but before the match, a minute's silence was paid to the former newcastle striker christian atsu, who was among those killed in the earthquakes that hit turkey and syria this month. it was confirmed by atsu's agent that his body was found in the rubble of a collapsed building in hatay. darwin nunez opened the scoring for the visitors after just 10 minutes, before january signing cody gakpo got his second goal in as many games to put liverpooljust six points off the champions league places. a shock for chelsea —

the big spenders in the january transfer window were beaten at stamford bridge by bottom of the table southampton... james ward—prowse with the only goal — from a free—kick in the first half. there was a long delay in the second half, after a head injury to chelsea's cesar azpilicueta. the blues have won just two games in their last ia. we got into some really good opportunities in the level we are playing at, you have to score them. and if you do not score them, that it makes life very difficult for you. and the fact that in the week against dortmund but at the same time, the first step is probably a reflection from the champions league, the changes that we have to make and a bit of lack of fluidity that you need to play the level that is required to win, a combination of things. fulham's incredible season continues. manor solomon handed marco silva's side the advantage, in the race for european qualification. as he secured a smash—and—grab victory with a late goal away to brighton. and what run brentford are on. 11 games without defeat for them now. vitaly janelt scored in the last seconds of stoppage time, against crystal palace, in theiri all draw in west london. sean dyche made it two wins from three games, since taking charge of everton, as his side beat leeds united by a goal to nil at goodison park.

seamus coleman proved to be the unlikely hero, with his second half strike creeping in at illan meslier�*s near post. the result sees everton climb out of the bottom three, whilst leeds slip to 19th. you want your home to become a fortress and we are building back and it takes time, takes belief in the players and the fans and the energy, the commitment to the cause and the play. i think we finished slightly better but there was some of the good play today and a lot of endeavored to do the right thing and so, i'm pleased with that. bournemouth picked up their first away win since early september and climbed out of the relegation zone — as marcus tavernier�*s goal helped them to victory over wolves at molineux. the cherries struck early in the second half, to end wolves' run of back—to—back wins. the result leaves wolves 15th in the table. in the scottish premiership, celtic have maintained their 9—point lead at the top of the table after thrashing aberdeen a—nil.

rangers kept the pressure on thir old firm rivals with a 3—nil victory at livingston. saintjohnstone were 2—1 winners at bottom of the table dundee united while there also wins on the day for hibernian and saint mirren. in the pinatar cup — scotland's women bounced back from their opening defeat to iceland, to win 2—1 against the phillipines. lauren davidson put them ahead before rachel corsie doubled that lead in the second half. the phillipines did pull one back, but it was just a consolation. scotland face wales in their final game on tuesday. and wales have not long kicked off against iceland — jess fishlock starts for wales, laura o'sullivan also returns in goal. iceland make eight changes from their win over scotland. can wales make it two in a row, after beating the philipines in their opener. action over on the bbc sport website. burnley have taken a big step to making an immediate return to the premier league, after beating luton 1—0 to stretch their lead at the top

of the championship to eleven points. it was a day to forget for sheffield united, who fell further adrift and saw their hopes of automatic promotion dented by a 3—2 defeat at play—off chasing millwall. tom bradshaw's hat—trick sealed the points for the home side at the den. the starting gun on the future ownership of manchester united has been fired. there's confirmation now from ineos founder sirjim ratcliffe — who says he wants be there long—term as well as an offer from qatar. andy swiss reports. it is one of the biggest clubs in rural football and it is one of the biggest clubs in ruralfootball and may it is one of the biggest clubs in rural football and may soon it is one of the biggest clubs in ruralfootball and may soon have it is one of the biggest clubs in rural football and may soon have the new owner. among the bidders for manchester united, this man, the boss of one of qatar's biggest banks. in his statement he said... qatar has become increasingly

other parts of scotland have seen some cloud and some rain. that will pull away this evening and overnight. and many other parts of the country will become dry as well. a few breaks in the cloud, perhaps the best of those probably in northeast scotland. so the risk of some icy patches here with temperatures close to freezing. otherwise those numbers are more comfortably sitting at around seven or eight degrees. tomorrow will be a windy day in scotland. we'll see the cloud thickening. some rain at times, very different day in northern scotland. that rain will be heavy at times. we've got a cloudier picture across northern ireland, northern england. it may well stay dry. further south brighter, more in the way of sunshine than we've had today across southern parts of england and south wales. another mild day temperatures 11 to 13 degrees. so those temperatures are a little bit higher than they were today in scotland, despite that stronger west to south—westerly wind, which will be touching gale force in the far north—west of scotland later on. and we'll see that rain moving away from northern areas of scotland, the northern isles. and then the second weather front slips down into the northern half of scotland. to the south of that, we still have a lot of cloud around. many places may well be dry overnight and a pretty mild one. the lowest temperatures probably across east anglia and the south

east of england after those high temperatures during the day. heading into the beginning of next week, we still have this very mild west to south—westerly wind. along that temperature boundary, of course, we find a weather front that will get stuck in scotland and there is quite a deep area of low pressure well to the north of scotland, that will bring some windy weather overnight. first thing on monday morning, the winds could be touching gale force. it'll be a breezy day. elsewhere across the country, we've got the weather front bringing that patchy rain across central parts of scotland and to the south a lot of places will be dry. there'll be a lot of cloud. probably the best breaks in the cloud, eastern england and eastern parts of wales. and those temperatures still sitting around 11 to 13 degrees. so we have a mild start to the new week. it'll probably be mild into tuesday as well. middle part of the week could see a little bit of rain arriving and then the wind direction changes and things will cool down just a little bit. so these are our city forecasts over the week ahead and you can see how those temperatures do drop away a bit later on in the week. not desperately cold and we start the week with temperatures as high as 1a or even 15 celsius.

this is bbc news with the headlines. western leaders put forward a unified front in their support for ukraine, days before the first anniversary of the russian invasion. ukraine needs more artillery, armoured vehicles and air defence, so now is the moment to double down on our military support. nearly two weeks after the earthquakes in turkey and syria, the body of the ghanaian footballer christian atsu is found in the rubble in turkey.
