in the nfl, four months after suffering a cardiac arrest on the field. welcome to the programme. fourteen time european champions real madrid are on the march once again. they're through to the semi—finals of the champions league after finishing the job against chelsea in london. 2—0 up from the first leg, a brace from rodrygo completed a 4—0 aggregate win. joe wilson was there for another frustrating night for chelsea. based on recent experience how would you have imagined this game had panned out for chelsea 7 a lot of decent early possession, plenty of chances that they could not take? definitely. ultimately undone by a team with a more coherent gameplan? and quality where it counted? absolutely. that was real madrid. today chelsea had a great scorch chance to score
2:47 am
in the 10th minute. the wing backs were working. reese james ball over, a great save. still goalless at halftime and you could sense there lingering belief among chelsea supporters but they knew that one goal from real madrid would upset would settle it. it came at 58 minutes. madrid were able to go on, pass the ball, take a position in the box and there was the goal. when rodrygo scored again, walking the ball then it felt almost cruel. it felt like a lesson. another goalless game for chelsea and the reality their fans will wake up to is that they are out of europe and 11th in the premier league. elsewhere ac milan reached the semi—finals for the first time since winning the competition in 2007

— they saw off serie a rivals napoli in an incident—packed second leg. milan could now face inter in the last four, with their city rivals going into wednesday's second leg against benfica with a 2—nil lead. 0livier giroud had an early penalty saved, but the veteran frenchman got the opening goal just before the break to make it 2—nil on aggregate. napoli then missed a penalty themselves, but did eventually score through a victor 0simhen header with seconds remaining in the match. it was too little too late, so napoli, who are 22 points clear of milan in the serie a table, are out. sadio mane will be available for bayern munich on wednesday, as they face an uphill battle to try and overturn a three—goal first leg deficit against manchester city. the former liverpool forward was suspended for the weekend's bundesliga clash with hoffenheim, after hitting team—mate and former city player leroy sane in the face following their quarter—final first leg defeat. this kind of energy in the dressing room shows
2:49 am
the determination and shows that it is alive and that the players are not happy and players are angry with themselves and each other which can be used, which is also kind of a form of energy. it was, to a certain extent, that we do not like. it was too much. so manchester city have a healthy 3—0 advantage from the first leg at the etihad last week. and have been further boosted by the return to training of phil foden. he'd been missing since being forced to pull out of england duty last month to have his appendix removed. city boss pep guardiola says they won't be sitting back in bavaria. i understand the situation to come here to defend. you come here to play a football game, 11 men against 11 men who tried to do better than the opening in the specific game. if you think about

just the result it would be a big mistake for us. staying with manchester city — the club have submitted a planning application for a $370 million expansion of the etihad stadium. the club want to increase the current capacity to 60,000. proposals include a sky—bar overlooking the pitch and a stadium roof—walk experience. a new fan zone, club shop, museum and hotel have also been proposed in the application. the club say the project will take three years to complete. novak djokovic says his right elbow is "not in an ideal condition" as he continues his preparations for next month's french open. the world number one suffered a surprise defeat to lorenzo musetti at the monte carlo masters last week. this week he's playing a 250 event on the clay in bosnia—herzegovina. he begins his campaign on wednesday against frenchman luca van assche.
2:51 am
while djokovic is in the balkans, the world number three casper ruud is in action at the barcelona 0pen. he beat american ben shelton in straight sets. shelton has rocketed up the rankings in the past year. and after losing the first set, he put up a fight in the second, but ruud came through a second set tie break to move into the last sixteen. mumbai indians have made it three wins in a row in the indian premier league after they beat sunrisers hyderabad by fourteen runs. australian cameron green smashed an unbeaten 64 as mumbai posted an impressive 192 for 5 from their twenty overs. hyderabad were bowled out on the second to last ball, the final wicket taken by arjun tendulkar, son of sachin.

monday's action may have been cut short after a protester stormed the crucible, butjoe perry and robert milkins were able to resume their first round clash at the world snooker championship on tuesday. perry now has a healthy 7—2 lead over milkins in sheffield. play resumed as normal, an investigation is underway into the incident that delayed the match. security has been ramped up after monday's events. 0ne protester covered a table with orange powder, whilst another caused a delay by trying to glue herself to the table. it follows a protest at the grand national last weekend. katie gornall reports: in the normally serene arena of the crucible, this was unheard of. well, these are terrible, terrible scenes here at the crucible. i have never seen anything like this. last night as a protester wearing a just
2:53 am
stop 0il t—shirt, covered a table with orange powder, another tried unsuccessfully to glue themselves to the table next door. two arrests were made and despite attempts to clean up, the match was postponed. it was surreal for the players. a state of shock. you do not expect anything like that to happen anywhere and especially at the crucible. i don't know what to think at the beginning but once it was done and over we tried to be relaxed about the situation. it was unnerving at the time. the stunt has put security at the sport under the spotlight while climate protesters say they have little choice to get their message across. not so much passionate, i am petrified and that is why we do the things that we are doing because we are not seeing the change that is going to give a liveable world for people, for everyone. snooker is a soft target and i would hate — although i see it as an inevitability now — i would hate for the relationship between the fans who come to watch our
2:54 am
events around the world and the sport itself may change just that little bit now because i have been saying for a long time that our security protocols and access are too weak. today, world snooker released a statement saying the security of the public and players is always top priority adding that following the incident they had increased existing security measures. that meant extra checks and searches for fans arriving at the crucible today where play resumed as normal after the chaos of yesterday. what is going on here? i am shaken up because you just did not know if it would be an attack or what was going on. they just found terrestrial television live sport, perfect for them, a perfect arena for them, if you like.

you save up and book in time off, we all work hard - and i think they are spoiling everybody's enjoyment. - peacefully outside, say- what they need but inside, no. it comes after animal rights activists forced the delay of the grand national at the weekend with more disruption promised by certain groups, the sport has been put on high alert. finally — buffalo bills safety damar hamlin has been cleared to return to play, four months after suffering a cardiac arrest on the field during an nfl match. hamlin collapsed during a match in january after making a tackle and had to be resuscitated on the pitch. after approval from doctors, he's returned to bills' off—season training and could play again later this year. my heart is still in it. my heart is still in the game. i love the game. i want to prove to myself, not anybody else. i've been beating statistics my whole life. some people may say that coming back to play may not be the best option
2:56 am
but that is their opinion and, like i said, i have been beating statistics my whole life so i like my chances here. it is all for now from the world of sport, we will see you next time. hello. big contrast in the weather across the uk on tuesday. we've got up to 21 degrees in the scottish highlands. plenty of sunshine generally across the highlands. this image from the afternoon in durness. further east edinburgh lots of low cloud mist and murk being dragged in on the easterly wind. this was newingtonjust nine degrees but similar temperatures really along much of the north sea coast on tuesday afternoon. won't be much different either, i fear this wednesday. perhaps brighter though, across eastern england as the area of cloud and showery rain that we saw hanging around on tuesday moves away westwards.
2:57 am
but it is those north sea temperatures that are real killers to the temperatures adjacent to the north sea, even on land at this time of year with an easterly wind. basically, we pick up cold air that's been sitting across the north sea and feed it straight into eastern coasts. further west with some sunshine, things do get a chance to warm up. and we're looking at highs towards the west today in the best of any sunshine of 15 or 16 degrees, a bit more cloud for wales. in the southwest, though, one or two showers around here could be a shade cooler. pollen levels down from the very high levels across england and wales that we saw earlier this week, but still very high in a few spots and high quite widely across the uk for any allergy sufferers. now looking to thursday, those isobars on that chart opened up a little bit there. for the keen eyed amongst you, that should mean a lighter winds. going through the night with clear skies, lighter winds, some cold air hanging around there. you've got all the ingredients to make for a frosty start to thursday. gardeners can easily be caught out. i know i have been, by putting out tender plants at this time of year and then those temperatures falling away.
2:58 am
and even through thursday daytime, we just pull the wind round to a bit more of a north—easterly direction. that's just going to bring in some slightly cooler air than we started the week with perhaps some showers into eastern england later in the day. what we're looking at is our temperatures tending away from the mid—teens into perhaps the lower end of double figures for thursday and still perhaps just ten degrees along the north sea coast. now, end of the week, things start to get more lively. the high pressure in the north gives way to allow low pressure to come swirling up from the south. that means we will see, i think, some showers spreading across england and wales on friday, more widely across the whole of the uk for saturday and sunday. and then quite a shock to the system, i think as we potentially pick up a northerly wind and some much colder weather for early next week.
