hello, i'm tulsen tollett, from the bbc sport centre. coming up on this programme... sevilla strike late in manchester as they fight back from 2—0 down to snatch a draw at united in the europa league quarter final first leg. djokovic dumped out of monte carlo after a controversial defeat to lorenzo musetti. and there's a row brewing in boxing — as nations break away in the amateur game forming their own, new, world governing body. hello and welcome to the programme where we start

with a cracking match at old trafford as the europa league quarter finals got underway. one of the favourites for the trophy, manchester united appeared to be cruising towards the semi—finals, leading sevilla 2—0 in therfirst leg. but two late goals saw the spanish side snatch a draw and leave the tie delicately poised. our reporterjohn murray was watching. a damaging night for manchester united in so many ways. certainly in how they conceded to our goals in eight minutes late in the match. and so crazily frittered away a strong position in the type of data been given them by marcel saponara in the first quarter. so bills may have been red carded but far back as i did not. —— var looked up the jitters was set again. ross and the first on goal. ms. eries had her went off an unfortunate maguire for an equaliser for the in between united laws

martinez to a nasty looking injury and had to finish with ten men and bruno fernandez will be suspended for the second leg for the after this united will do well to get through. so what started out as a memorable night — soon turned into a disappointing one. united's manager erik ten hag admits it was a game of missed chances. we had opportunities to school with third goal. i think yeah, in the last ten minutes —— scored the third goal. as i said, sometimes you have those nights. away from old trafford, were three other quarter finals taking place on thursday evening. juventus have the advantage in their tie against sporting lisbon — federico gatty with the only goal in their match. elsewhere feyenoord beat roma by the same scoreline, whilst bayer leverkusen drew 1—1 with union saint gilloise of belgium. and in the europa conference league, fiorentina are all but through to the semi finals, after they thrashed lech poznan 4—1. anderlecht beat az alkmaar

whilst there were draws at basel and gent. in germany — bayern munich have dropped sadio mane after reports he'd punched his teammate leroy sane at the end of their champions league defeat to manchester city. mane won't play against hoffenheim on saturday after the incident, which reports in germany say led to the two players needing to be separated by teammates. bayern who lost 3—0 at the etihad, said the former liverpool forward has been dropped and fined because of "misconduct". the gujerat titans have made it three wins from four in the indian premier league after beating the punjab kings but only just. the kings batted first — making 153 from their 20 overs — matthew short top scoring with 36. shubman gill led the titans response, top scoring with 67 — as the defending champions chased their target down with a ball to spare and with six wickets in hand. there's been a big shock

at the monte carlo masters — on a day to forget for world number one novak djokovic. djokovic won the first set but the match changed in the second when the serbian had a heated debate with the umpire over a line call, which went against him and djokovic would go on to lose the set. and then go on to lose the match — as italy's lorenzo musetti secured one of the biggest wins of his career. well feeling is terrible after game like this, honestly. congrats to him. he stayed tough in important moments and that's it, that's all i can say. good luck to him. i cannot say anything, i am fine, congrats to him. he's feeling bad because he lost the match. congrats to my appointment. hal congrats to my appointment. not the ureat congrats to my appointment. iirrt the great day for me. i'm not able to speak. a shock too earlier in the day — as world number 100

jan lennard struff beat the fourth seed casper ruud in straight sets to reach the quarter finals. the german will play andrey rublev next, while second seed stefanos tsitsipas will play taylor fritz. meanwhile, the women's tennis tour will return to china after refusing to hold their events there for 16 months following claims made by peng shuai about being "forced" into a sexual relationship with former chinese vice—premier zhang gaoli. peng briefly disappeared from the public eye — she then denied making the accusation and having accepted an investigation into the allegations will not be carried out by the chinese government, the wta have reversed their decision. our tennis correspondent russell fuller spoke to my colleague hugh ferris earlier. it's certain the wta admitting that the strategy they have been employing since november of 2021 is not working. see simon, the wta chief executive in a conversation with him yesterday, he said that it's

clearly not working. we need to change tack, we need a fresh approach. he's not giving up on his desire for the chinese government to launch a full and independent investigation into the sexual assault allegation that peng made 16 or 17 months ago. i think it's also a reality of the financial world and the fact that china hosts a string of tournaments at the end of the year, there were eight in eight weeks in september and october 2019, the last full season before the pandemic. lots of playing opportunities for the members of the wta tour. the financial opportunities are vast as well but season ending wta championships for the elite eight singles of the year, the top doubles has $14 million in prize money alone. you mentioned _ prize money alone. you mentioned the - prize money alone. you mentioned the fact - prize money alone. you mentioned the fact that prize money alone. you - mentioned the fact that the prize money alone. you mentioned the fact that the wta tour chief executive steve sieber was talking about wanting an investigation. he also wanted to hear from her wanting an investigation. he also wanted to hearfrom her or

himself was up he hasn't yet. so concerns was still abound. yes, i did ask him whether that he felt he had achieved anything by taking the stance given the chance they are now dropping their immediate demand for this independent investigation by the chinese authorities before they even agreed to play in china again. he admits he has not spoken to peng shuai personally. he said there are repeated assurances that she is safe and living with herfamily in beijing. they also said they've been assured that players and staff will be well treated by nature to china later in the year. he also said he hopes that they have gained respect from people for the csa is taken. even though he said he's not pointing fingers at anybody, he made the point quite clearly that other organisations and businesses such as the atp men's store have not their lead. now to a big row brewing in the world of amateur boxing —

after a number of nations, including great britain and the usa, broke away from the international boxing association to form their own, new world governing body. the sports future in the olympics from 2028 onwards has been in doubt after the international olympic committee previously criticised a lack of transparency and governance in boxing at the amateur level. the new federation will be called world boxing and the body now hopes to work with the ioc to try and rebuild relationships and bring it back into olympic plans. world boxing has been established by a group of like—minded leaders of world boxing. we have established it because we are facing a nightmare. the nightmare of losing olympic recognition. there must be real willingness to keep boxing distinction because such that for the next generations. i think the sport will be dead if we lose our olympic recognition. we are fighting to keep the olympic dream alive for our grandchildren.

well following the news of the breakaway organisation, the iba have responded saying they will sanction and ban any nation from competing — if they decide to join any other boxing association. in a statement, the iba secretary general and ceo, george yerolimpos said... the washington commanders owner dan snyder is close to a deal to sell the nfl franchise to an investment group led byjosh harris and including former nba star magicjohnson — according to the nfl network. the report said that while the deal is not final and no agreement has been sent to the nfl's offices, the parties are close

to a deal valued atjust below $6 billion. snyder who bought the franchise for $800 million has owned the commanders, formerly the washington redskins, since 1999 but his ownership has been heavily criticised and faced several investigations. and finally — "don't look down" is not only the name of this project, but also quite a handy bit of advice when it comes to bmx tricks in a hot air balloon 2 thousand feet in the sky. professional bmx rider kriss kyle from scotland is who you see doing tricks on this flying skate park above the cotswolds in england — don't worry, he wears a parachute while on the bike. his aim is to show off the endless potential of the bmx to up—and—coming riders. i rode a bmx bike when i was younger, certainly not up in the air in a parachute.

you can get all the latest sports news at our website that's bbc.com/sport. from me and the rest of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. hello again. thursday brought us a day of sunshine and showers. many of the showers came from these very big cumulonimbus clouds, like these looming over the skyline of hastings in east sussex. and not too far away from that in kent, we had a real heavy downpour that brought some hail. two centimetres of hail was reported and temperatures came down to about one degree celsius as well. so a sudden drop in temperatures as that storm went through. now, at the moment, we've still got a few showers left over across scotland, but otherwise some clear spells around. a bit of rain starting to edge back into south west england. southern parts of wales, a chilly start to the day on friday with temperatures 1 to 3 degrees. now this area of low pressure moves rain across southern

wales, southern areas of england and then dives into northern france. i think away from that, for scotland and northern ireland, it's another day of sunshine and showers. the showers turning heavy with hail and thunder and some of them slow moving as well. but across england and wales, as that low pressure works into france, it changes the wind flow. and we get this zone of convergence where the winds bash together. a big line of thunderstorms form. well, maybe we get an odd funnel cloud even from that kind of area, eyes to the skies. then where the sunshine comes out, even though temperatures will be below average, everywhere, probably won't feel too bad. but where cloudy, ten, 11 degrees, that's not going to feel too great. but on into the weekend we go and the prospect is that the weather's going to turn drier, sunnier and a good deal warmer as pressure rises and we start to get these milder southerly winds blowing the way across the country both saturday and into sunday as well. so weather wise, not a bad start to the weekend. most of us will see some spells of sunshine. still a few showers left over

for eastern areas of england. and there is the threat of it telling a bit cloudier for northern ireland into the afternoon, maybe with an odd patch of light rain in the extreme west is starting to get warmer though, and 15 degrees. given the light winds for glasgow and for london, it should feel pleasant in the sunshine that we'll have. still, the emphasis is on a lot of dry and reasonably sunny weather. i think for most of us on sunday that's probably a bit more in the way of cloud across north western areas with an odd spot of light rain. temperatures continuing to climb 15 in liverpool and manchester at 17 in london area and that should feel pleasantly warm. high pressure hangs around next week, so a lot of dry weather to come with some warm april spells of sunshine, but fairly brisk winds developing in the southeast towards the middle part of the week.
