for pushing harry kane's face just before the hour mark. kane later scored a penalty to put spurs ahead, but the tables turned and lucas moura saw a straight red for a tackle on michael keane. it was then keane who salvaged a point for the toffees with a stunning long—range strike on 90 minutes. the result brings everton out of the relegation zone and takes tottenham back into fourth. the back into fourth. challenge. there a site that the challenge. there a site that despite the noise around their camp still have quality players. we had to be right in our performance and i think a lot was right. obviously, you have the sending off which takes the wings out of your sales but we played well in the second half. after that, we have to take on the next challenge which is going on to ten men, gets a penalty given against us but the reaction was fantastic. the way we played after even against 11 was

excellent. we played a good game because we challenge them at the same level_ we challenge them at the same level of— we challenge them at the same level of strength in the header, in the long ball. we played — header, in the long ball. we played a _ header, in the long ball. we played a good game and were complex. we know it's not easy to come — complex. we know it's not easy to come here. the only problem was when — to come here. the only problem was when we played 11 versus ten and — was when we played 11 versus ten and in _ was when we played 11 versus ten and in that moment we went 1-0 and— ten and in that moment we went 1—0 and with the controller much _ 1—0 and with the controller much better the game with the ball _ with two months of the premier league season to go, over half the clubs no longer have the manager they started the season with. a record 13 have now lost theirjobs — graham potter the latest with chelsea 11th in the table. this was supposed to be a new era at stamford bridge after the departure of roman abramovic, but chaotic and brutal is how the current owners are being described — after months of telling us they'd be standing by their man. patrick geary reports: the american owners say they won't be chopping and changing managers and assembly. graham potter apparently still has the support of the chairman and board.

whacked, backed, and then sacked. graham potter came to chelsea what the call in football, a project puts up a long—term vision and a five—year contract. it lasted seven months. he leaves with the team made table and his assistant in charge. it's been really difficult at every single level, especially emotional. obviously, you have to deal with the press conference and the players but it's hard. the relationship with graham and billy, it's difficult to deal with that and how it affects their families. that personal impact is something potter himself had mentioned. as results fell away after the world cup he spoke of the abuse his family had suffered. this was a level of pressure he had not experienced at any previous job.

the defeat to aston villa at the week and was his 11th in 31 games. patience had run out. certain things were accepted at brighton but at chelsea it's a big shift. people have to understand that and that's why i feel at chelsea. the owners will to win had been backed by lots of cash. chelsea spent more than £300 million injanuary on eight new players. potter had always worked with tight knit groups in his career had to manage and train a squad of more than 37 senior professionals. extracting quality from quantity weekly proved tricky. it was tough to work in the short—term, i would say it was a close to job because there were just so many

young players learning the game and english football. a lots of them are comfortable around the world but you need to get these players to gel in a unit. so, who will take thatjob? maybejulian nagelsmann now this who was recently it has been a few days since the new owners have taken over but this new chelsea are looking for the third new manager. graham potter is now a contenderfor the leicester job after brendan rodgers was relieved of his duties over the weekend. his last game was a 2—1 defeat away to crystal palace which saw them slip to second bottom in the premier league. rodgers helped leicester lift the fa cup for the first time in their history in 2021. a club statement says they'll always be grateful to him but they felt "compelled to take alternative action" to avoid relegation. owynn palmer—atkin is bbc radio leicester's leicester city correspondant, here's what he thinks will happen next.
12:51 am
my my understanding for a long time has been the lester are big admirers of graham potter and thomas frank. thomas frank will not leave brentford at this moment in time as they are going well in the premier league and is made himself a home there. graham potter, is he going to be in a position where he wants to jump back into management question mark is difficult and i don't think it's a clearfront is difficult and i don't think it's a clear front runner which is unusual for lester. leicester and chelsea both sacked their managers — knowing big premier league games were around the corner. leicester play aston villa on tuesday, whilst chelsea play a liverpool side struggling forform and eight points off the top four. jurgen klopp was asked about the managerial sackings and his own future earlier. i think the elephant is in the room is probably, from your point of view, why am still sitting here in this crazy world.
12:52 am
last man standing. i think both clubs are not in a spot where they expect to win. i cannot really say a lot more about it. yes, i know them well and respect them a lot. to be honest, i like both when i met them. they are really good people and fantastic managers, both of them. still, things can go wrong the way and the decision—makers in the club think that the change in the change. we all accept that part of the business. i'm aware of the fact that i'm sitting here because of the past and not because of the season. if this were to be my first season, things will be slightly different, so that's it. in spain's la liga — justin kleivert scored a late penalty for valencia which was enough to earn them a 1—1 draw at the mestalla against rayo vallecano and take them out of the relegation zone on goal diffeence. while in italy's serie a — empoli won out against lecce thanks to a francesco caputo

penalty, with sassuolo and torino playing out a 1—1 draw. chennai super kings, featuring ben stokes and moeen ali, have beaten lucknow super giants by 12 runs in their indian premier league clash. the super kings opening partnership surpassed 100 as the home team amassed a score of 217 for seven from their 20 overs after being sent in to bat. in response the super giants fell just short of victory with moeen taking figures of four for 26 from his four overs and was ably assisted by his fellow bowlers. i feel the bowling is ifeel the bowling is not an easy skill and i'm still learning. we have a great bowling coach and i'm just trying to pick his brains and what he has done from last year. so, trying to do that. my

role is similar to what he has done over the years. i can't feel issues but i'm trying to learn from him. now to golf where the masters tees off on thursday at augusta national with rory mcilroy looking to add the only major that he has't yet won to his trophy haul. on monday the world number two was out practising with five time winner and his business partner, tiger woods, as the pair hone their game for the year's first major championship. northern irishman mcilroy was runner up 12 months ago falling short of winner and current world number one scottie scheffler. liv golf players are allowed to play at the masters and there's been a lot of talk about what may happen if one of those from the breakaway saudi backed tour wins at augusta national. forformer winner dustin johnson it's simply about playing the game rather than what goes on around it. we still play golf for a living. i'm here at the masters and enjoyment this week and this week is about augusta and

it has nothing to do where you play at and guys that are here play at and guys that are here play all around the world and not everybody just plays play all around the world and not everybodyjust plays on one spot. for me, like i said, on my buddies are still my buddies and it's nice to see a list of the guys because i haven't seen them much and it should be a great week and i'm looking forward to it. and finally the french coast has played host to a unique sporting event this weekend as the big air kite world cup began in le barcares.athletes from spain, italy, the usa began in le barcares. athletes from spain, italy, the usa and france aimed for the highest trick score as they flew from sea to air on a surfboard on the stunning coastline of the south of france. you can get all the latest sports news at our website, but from me tulsen tollet and the rest of the team it's bye for now.
12:56 am
hello. we've seen a reasonably settled spell of early april weather over the past few days, largely dry with some sunshine. and that's going to continue at least for another 2a hours for many parts of the uk. so sunny spells around. there is some rain in the forecast through tuesday and it's mainly pushing in across the far northwest all down to this weather front you can see here. but it is meeting this big area of high pressure which sits to the east, and that's really going to be the driving force of the weather, particularly across england, wales and eastern scotland, too. that's where we've got the clearest skies over the next few hours. it's really quite chilly out there. a bit more cloud and drizzly rain pushing into northern ireland and western scotland. so temperatures by tuesday dawn here above freezing. but elsewhere we could see a touch of frost, perhaps as low as minus four in one or two sheltered rural spots across england and wales. now through the day on tuesday after that chilly start, any misting is soon clearing away lots of sunshine for much of england, wales and eastern scotland. a little bit of high cloud around, so turning hazy at times, especially later on. more cloud, though, for northern ireland and western scotland.
12:57 am
the breeze picking up and a little patchy light rain through the morning, becoming a bit more persistent during the afternoon. top temperatures for most of us, between about 12 to ia degrees or so. not as cool as it has been close to the east coast because we're losing that onshore breeze. now overnight tuesday, and heading on into wednesday, we've got this cloud and rain just pushing more widely across the uk, but we do keep the clear skies for east anglia in the southeast. so yet again, just a touch of frost as we head through into wednesday morning here. but further northwest under that blanket of cloud and rain, it is going to be reasonably mild. so heading through wednesday, then this frontal system edges its way gradually southwards and eastwards too. so it will bring a spell of wet weather for many of us, i think through wednesday, not everywhere, probably east anglia, parts of lincolnshire, down towards southern and southeastern england, staying dry with some sunny spells all day. but elsewhere, a lot of cloud. the breeze picking up from a south westerly direction and outbreaks of rain could be quite persistent at times. reasonably mild, still about ten to ia degrees during the day on wednesday. and then as we head through towards wednesday
12:58 am
night into thursday, we could well see a little bit of a ripple on this weather front. so that means that during thursday, more areas, especially in the east, could see some spells of persistent rain. should gradually clear away, though, as we head through good friday and into the easter weekend, showers tending to clear up. so many of us looking dry. could be a little bit of rain though at times in the south by. could be a little bit of rain though at times in the south.
