12:46 am
the pressure on leaders manchester city. world champion max verstappen charges through the field after starting ninth on the grid to win the miami grand prix. and the dominance of carlos alcaraz continues, as he defends his madrid open title. you're very welcome along to the programme. let's with arsenal, who have start kept their premier league title race alive after they beat newcastle 2—0, and with it, closed within a point of leaders manchester city. martin odegaard scored in the first half, and a fabian schar own goal wrapped up the victory. city have a game in hand on top of their one—point cushion, as the gunners continue to fight for a first league title in 19 years. newcastle's defeat stalls their charge towards champions league football next season, as their lead over fifth—placed liverpool remains three points. you have to continue. we've done it for ten months, we have to keep digging
12:47 am
in every single day. the demands are incredibly high, we know that. but we are doing what we have to do, to win football matches again, performing really well, competing well. three games to go and we are still there. we've performed so well for the majority of the season, the players have been incredible for us. the consistency has been there, the attitude and mentality has been there. now we have to go another level, and that's always going to be hard. that's the challenge we face in the premier league. i think when you look at the four games we have, we're going to need the crowd and to stay united. incredible support we've had all season. the noise today was there. just needed to score and i think it would have taken off. but it wasn't to be. we know we need the crowd in our next few games. manchester united could have moved above newcastle into third, but they were beaten by a said benrahma goal at west ham. david de gea was at fault for the goal. david moyes' side are now seven points clear of the relegation zone with three games left to play.
12:48 am
i feel like clapping my owners, because there were times this year they could have made a change and things might have gone against them. so i feel like applauding them for sticking with me at different times this season. i thought the crowd were fantastic. but no wonder, the way the players played today. they saw how the players performed, the character and passion the players showed. we are talking about manchester united, challenging for the champions league. we put on a really good show. i can't blame my team. they put all the effort in that they had in this moment. as i said, from christmas on, we play every three days. you see it in the second half, we played below our standards, we couldn't bounce back. now we have to reset and get the energy. tottenham have condemned the alleged racist abuse directed towards son heung—min during their home win against crystal palace on saturday.
12:49 am
posts on social media appear to show a man in the away end making a gesture at the south korea forward. crystal palace have said their evidence has been passed to the police and that when the person is identified, they will face a club ban. to germany now, and in the bundesliga, borussia dortmund arejust a point behind leaders bayern munich after thrashing wolfsburg 6—0. adeyemi scored a hat—trick. two goals forjude bellingham. this is the bundesliga, it's going to be difficult in all the three games for us, in all the three games for bayern munich. because we are all playing against teams that are not done yet. they are fighting for their own goals, but in the end, it's not our topic. our topic is just to increase our performances and to make sure the possibility to win all three games is as high as possible. then by the end of the season, we got to see how far we go.
12:50 am
there was a party mood in naples, with napoli playing in front of their home fans for the first time since they won the serie a title. the fans let off fireworks and flares in the packed streets around the stadium, and there were joyous scenes inside the ground as well, which is named after their icon diego maradona. a sunny day in southern italy for fans to enjoy. fittingly, napoli beat fiorentina i—o. victor osimhen with the goal on the day. more celebration back in the uk, as celtic secured the scottish premiership title for the second year in a row, a 2—0 win over hearts means they can secure a fifth treble in just seven seasons if they win the scottish cup injune. red bull's max verstappen showed his class and carved through the field to win the miami grand prix after starting ninth on the grid. world champion verstappen beat team—mate sergio perez who started on pole. the defeat for perez could raise serious questions
12:51 am
about his claims to be able to challenge verstappen for the title. fernando alonso continued his season for aston martin with a fourth podium finish in five races. george russell was fourth for mercedes. a good race. stayed out of trouble at the beginning. just had a clean race, pick the cars off one by one, and i could stay out really long on the hard tyres, and that's where we made a difference today. a good little battle with checo at the end. we kept it clean. great win today. home favourite carlos alcaraz won the madrid open, becoming only the second man to defend his title after rafa nadal. it took three sets but the 20—year—old triumphed 6—4, 3—6, 6—3 overjan—lennard struff of germany. it is his fourth trophy this season and comes just after he was victorious in the barcelona open last month.
12:52 am
he will overtake novak djokovic in first simply by competing at the italian open next week. sometimes i couldn't play my game just waiting for for my chances. and yet in the second set, i had a lot of chances to break his serve. and yeah, i didn't take it. so it was tough for me, you know, to lose the second set. but i told myself that i have to be positive all the time. you know, iwas going to to have my chances and try to take it, you know, and i think i did in the third set. meanwhile, britain's andy murray has won his first title in nearly four years, beating tommy paul in the final of the atp challenger event in france, where he came back from a set down against the american top seed for his first title on clay since he won in rome in 2016. jonathan milan took his first grand tour stage victory on day two of the giro d'italia.
12:53 am
there was a heavy crash around four kilometres from the end of the race, which meant britain's mark cavendish was unable to complete the stage but still is in the race. milan, who rides for the bahrain victorious edged home with david dekker second. remco evenepoel from belgium holds a lead overall. demi vollering won the last stage of la vuelta feminina in a foggy northern spain. but it wasn't enough to clinch the title. it was her compatriot annemiek van vleuten, who just edged it. she finished third on the day, but that was enough to clinch the overall lead by just 9 seconds. it was the a0 year old's third consecutive victory in the race. unbelievable. i kept on fighting till the end. i didn't have the best legs. ifelt already a weight on the climb that i didn't have my best day. maybe also hit the effort of yesterday. | never, ever gave up.
12:54 am
so i feel like i need to keep pushing. keep on pushing for sure. they also get tired. and in the end it was close. but yeah, amazing team again today. now to cricket and there was an extraordinary end to the ipl match between sunrisers hyderabad and rajasthan royals injaipur. the royals thought they'd won when sunrisers' abdul samad was caught off the last ball of the innings. royals bowler sandeep sharma was delivered a no ball and then samad hit the extra ball or free hit for a six to seal a remarkable win. if i tell you right now that we were positive, you may not believe it. you might think i'm just making it up right now. but actually, the conversation in the middle was that it's a good pitch. the ball was sliding onto the bat. there wasn't much happening, and we genuinely believed that it was attainable. but it's easy for me to say it now, and you may take it,
12:55 am
you may not take it, but that's up to you. but we genuinely believe that it was a score. if we play the spinners well, it was a score that we could get get back. after beating lucknow supergiants by 56 runs, shubman gill hit an unbeaten 94 for gujarat and the supergiants got nowhere near their target of 228. sometime in the 20 to 30 to a0 becomes very less. but you have to be fully focused in giving that 100% effort. and that was the kind of discussion we had while coming to the bowling. and we as a team, we had that in the mind that we are defending 190, something like that. and as long as we have that in the mind, ifeel like we're going to be on the right side. but we never think about you score that many runs and they just be more relaxed. but it was more about doing
12:56 am
the basics right and bowling in the right areas. new zealand have salvaged some pride as they won the fifth and final 0di in the series against pakistan to lose 4—1. overall, new zealand had set pakistan a target of 300, it proved too much. pakistan all out for 252, with new zealand winning by 47 runs. and remember, you can stay up—to—date and get all the latest sports news at our website, and also the bbc sport app, website, and also the bbc sport app, but from the bbc sport team, see you again soon. goodbye. hello there. looking at the weather over the coronation weekend, i think it's fair to say we've had a real mixed bag, starting on saturday with the coronation itself, where, in london, we had, of course, rain. it wasn't that heavy — we only had five millimetres — but it was relentless, lasting for about nine hours, so very damp weather. different story for sunday, many of us dry with some sunshine coming through.
12:57 am
and it was the warmest day of the year so far with highs of 21.3. but how warm is that? well, if we look at the 7th of may, in previous years, up to that date, we've had much warmer spells. for example, back in 2018, temperatures had already reached 29 degrees at this time of the year. so 21, absolutely nothing special for early may. now, on the satellite picture, what we're looking at here is this stripe of cloud, which is our next band of heavy rain that's going to be moving through. indeed, it's already making inroads in across northern ireland, moving its way eastwards into scotland. england in the west and wales also having a wet start to your bank holiday monday. will be quite mild, though, temperatures about 10—12 celsius for many of us. and then through monday, well, you might well start off with a bit of sunshine across east anglia and the south—east of england, but this band of rain is on its way. the rain quite heavy at times, perhaps with a bit of thunder mixed in. and even as we start to see some brighter weather moving into the north—west later on, there'll be lots of heavy showers, particularly for northern ireland, with a number of
12:58 am
thunderstorms here. but those storms are also likely to be working to west scotland as well. where we do see a bit of may sunshine, temperatures still into the high teens, so it still won't feel too bad. tuesday, it starts quite cloudy. there'll be some sunshine comes through for a time, but then big showers. northern ireland, wales and southern counties of england quite likely to see some big thunderstorms and some of those will have hail mixed in with them as well. still, there will be some places that dodge the downpours. and with temperatures still into the upper teens, it won't feel too bad if you're out and about. wednesday sees an occlusion, bringing some more general rain to west scotland and northern ireland. it's not the only place that will see rain, though, because after a fine start across england and wales, showers will move from west to east. and, again, they're likely to be heavy with some hail and thunder mixed in once again. now, temperatures still pretty much at best reaching the upper teens. thursday, we see further showers, particularly concentrated across england and wales. something a bit brighterfor scotland and northern ireland. but as you can see from the outlook, we are expecting it to stay pretty unsettled.
