where chelsea beat manchester united to win the women's fa cup again. is the title race over? manchester city are 3 points away from being champions as they win and arsenal lose. and partying like it's 2006 — sale beat leicester to reach their first rugby premiership final in 17 years. from the bbc sports centre, this is sportsday. welcome along, thank you forjoining us. we start at wembley where nearly 80 thousand have watched chelsea win their third fa cup final in a row. that's a world record crowd for a women's domestic game. this was manchester united's first time in the final, but they were beaten by a sam kerr winner as katie gornall reports:

the women's fa cup final as you have never seen it before, sold out at wembley. the fans and for the sport, it is a moment to celebrate. inside wembley was a cauldron of colour. this chelsea team are no strangers to the big occasion, here for the third year in a row. 20 seconds was all it took for the first goal. unfortunately for hire she was offside. at the other end, mary earps was rarely troubled, no chance she would switch off. so far for united owner, this was time well spent. such is the depth that chelsea have the reserve. the pass changed everything. much to the

delight of sam kerr, this is her fifth goal in three fa cup finals. united gave everything but there was no time for one final twist. emma hayes�*s side maintained their dominance of this tournament. they hope this isn't the last trophy they will left this season. it's chelsea's fifth fa cup title overall. the latest in a growing list of achievements by emma hayes�* side. for manchester united — who only reformed the women's team five years ago — their rise has been astronomical. here are the thoughts of both managers starting with the chelsea boss: first half we are stare to be one for man united. we looked sluggish and turned the ball over, slow to do almost anything we'd set out to do. half—time came as a moment for us to reset and the finishes came from the bench in the second half is where we won the game. we thought man united were unbelievable today but i want to say this is for the fans of

chelsea football club today. we had a tough year and this is for the fans. ~ , . ., ' a tough year and this is for the fans. ~ , . y ., ., fans. we switched off in one moment. if ou fans. we switched off in one moment. if you don't — fans. we switched off in one moment. if you don't give _ fans. we switched off in one moment. if you don't give them _ fans. we switched off in one moment. if you don't give them space _ fans. we switched off in one moment. if you don't give them space they - if you don't give them space they don't _ if you don't give them space they don't do — if you don't give them space they don't do anything. the reality is i'm really— don't do anything. the reality is i'm really proud of what the girls have _ i'm really proud of what the girls have done — i'm really proud of what the girls have done today. as you see there, we are _ have done today. as you see there, we are hungry. they might be winning it now_ we are hungry. they might be winning it now but _ we are hungry. they might be winning it now but that isn't where they will be — it now but that isn't where they will be in — it now but that isn't where they will be in the future. that is what we want — will be in the future. that is what we want to — will be in the future. that is what we want to take. for more on the final and what it means for the women's game, katie gornall has been speaking to former england player farah williams: if you look at the game, as a whole it was a really competitive game. most of the 90 minutes they were on top. don't take chances and the difference between a chelsea team with that much experience in knowing how to win, it is those moments. sam kerr with the assist, that was what one for chelsea in the end. what

what dreams are made of. i am so proud of them. next to what could prove to be a pivotal day in the premier league title race. these expressions sum up how they are feeling. arsenal — who for so long were top of the table — may well have to make do with finishing second after being beaten by brighton at the emirates it was a goal less first half with leondro trossard coming closest against his former club. after the break, it was brighton who broke the deadslock — through that man —julio enciso. and it got even better for the seagulls, as denis undav capitalised on a mistake from trossard to make it two. that may but all and arsenal's hopes. arsenal fans started the day hoping manchester city would stumble at everton, with the game at goodison park sandwiched between their champions

league semi final against real madrid. but pep guardiola's side were anything but distracted, winning 3—0 and with arsenal's defeat that gives them a li—point lead with a game in hand. dan 0gunshakin reports: wins at goodison park are a common occurrence for manchester city and they knew a seventh win a row on everton�*s turf would move them a step closer to a hat trick of league titles. the motivation was clear yet city were strangely flat so captain ilkay gundogan took matters into his own hands. a goal on his 300th appearance for the club and moments later an assist. at the ground where dixie dean wrote his name into football folklore, erling haaland added to his modern day record tally. 52 and counting — no wonder kids want to be just like him.but this was gundogan�*s day — a magnificent brace, a captain's performance once again and one that leaves city as masters of their own destiny.

with every whim, you bring energy and take energy for the next one. a lot of games, but when we are playing we are playing. we are recovering well and we want to do it. ., ., ., , , ., recovering well and we want to do it. there are a top side to doing what topsides _ it. there are a top side to doing what topsides do. _ it. there are a top side to doing what topsides do. they - it. there are a top side to doing what topsides do. they can - it. there are a top side to doing i what topsides do. they can hurt it. there are a top side to doing - what topsides do. they can hurt you in every— what topsides do. they can hurt you in every way — what topsides do. they can hurt you in every way. the game plan wasn't working _ in every way. the game plan wasn't working for— in every way. the game plan wasn't working for them so they decide to change _ working for them so they decide to change it — working for them so they decide to change it. they can pass and play, we know— change it. they can pass and play, we know that. clever finish for the first and _ we know that. clever finish for the first and third and all of a sudden, they have — first and third and all of a sudden, they have done what they do. with arsenal losing _ they have done what they do. with arsenal losing at _ they have done what they do. tn arsenal losing at home to they have done what they do. try arsenal losing at home to brighton, they could be champions before kicking off against chelsea next sunday. brentford have their first top—half finish in the top flight since 1938 — and they're still in the hunt for european football after a 2—0

win over west ham thomas frank's side have had another impressive season, and with west ham making changes with their europa conference league semi final second leg to come, they were behind to a bryan mbuemo goal after 20 muinutes. no ivan toney because of a hamstring injury. the second goal came just before half time from yoane wissa. brentford are up to ninth. fantastic, we are looking forward to saturday against tottenham. a big game for us. now we are clearly in the top half of the table which is an unbelievable result but we like to climb as high as possible and get as many points as possible. luntimely to climb as high as possible and get as many points as possible. when you lose a goal. — as many points as possible. when you lose a goal. two _ as many points as possible. when you lose a goal, two or _ as many points as possible. when you lose a goal, two or three _ as many points as possible. when you lose a goal, two or three causes - as many points as possible. when you lose a goal, two or three causes a - lose a goal, two or three causes a bit lose a goal, two or three causes a hit of— lose a goal, two or three causes a bit of problems. we were fully aware of it. bit of problems. we were fully aware of it it _ bit of problems. we were fully aware of it it was _ bit of problems. we were fully aware of it. it was disappointing because we had _ of it. it was disappointing because we had work to try and contain it.

and you can see southampton at the bottom. we're still awaiting chelsea's formal announcement — but the club has reached an agreement to make mauricio pochettino the new manager. he'lljoin in the summer after chelsea's worst premier league season in 20 years. pochettino managed tottenham for five years from 2014 and led them to the 2019 champions league final. he'll be chelsea's sixth permanent manager in five years, following the sacking of thomas tuchel and graham potter earlier this season with interim boss frank lampard currently in charge of the club who are 11th in the league. in the championship... the first leg of the play off semi final between coventry and middlesborough ended goalless with both teams hoping to reach the final at wembley.

middlesbrough were denied by the crossbar early on with chuba akpom's effort narrowly saved by coventry�*s ben wilson. middlesbrough did however manage to put the ball in the net 4 minutes before half time, with isaiahjones converting, but from an offside position. the second leg is at the riverside stadium on wednesday when both sides will know whether it's luton or sunderland awaiting in the final. time now for a look at some of the day's other sport stories. in the netherlands, ajax's match at groningen was abandoned after home supporters invaded the pitch to protest against the clubs ownersnip. supporters made their way on to the pitch afterjust ten minutes, to protest the clubs relegation from it was an ipl debut to forget forjoe root. he was out forjust 10 as his rajasthan royals side were thrashed by royal challengers bangalore by 112 runs. rcb made 171 from their 20 overs, with the royals all out for 59 in reply. novak djokovic is through to the fourth round of the italian 0pen. the defending champion was made to work by gregor dimitrov but he came through in three sets. he'll face either cam norrie or marton fucsovics next.

no problems for the women's top seed iga swiatek. she produced a dominant display to beat ukraine's lesia tsurenko in straight sets. 6—2, 6—love to make the last 16. sale sharks are into their first premiership final for 17 years — after beating the holders leicester tigers 21—13. saracens await in the final at twickenham. ben croucher reports: from rugby unions southern heartland to its northern souls, sales have waited for their final reckoning and the home side got there all... after a concerted spell of pressure, the tigers with the scores level, just a bounce

of the ball could decide this one. sales had... forward? yes it was. setting up that saracens showdown in a fortnight. it will be north versus south. winner takes all. gloucester—hartpury are back on top of the premier 15s table after a 40—26 victory over loughborough. they started the day a point behind exeter chiefs who were beaten by the reigning champions saracens, that's despite this try from katie buchanan. the chiefs losing 29—22 so they are second with saracens third. today saw the inaugural rob burrow leeds marathon — an event named after the former leeds rhinos player who was diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 2019.

over 12,000 people took on the 26.2—mile course — which started and ended at headingley stadium. rugby league legend kevin sinfield stopped short of the finish line to carry his friend rob over the line. he, like so many there, was raising funds for the rob burrow centre for motor neurone disease appeal and the leeds hospitals charity. that's all from sportsday, but before we go — earlier, we told you about west ham's defeat at brentford — although they're not mathematically safe yet, it looks like they'll be playing premier league football again next season. their current focus is on trying to win their first major trophy since 1980, they're 2—1 up going into thursday's europa conference league second—leg with az alkmaar. former west ham captain and now sporting director mark noble has been speaking to the football news show which is what we leave you with tonight:

welcome to the football news show on bbc news. forgive the cliche if you will but it's a bit of a roller—coaster being a football fan what with the highs and lows and ups and downs and emotions all of the place for 90 minutes every weekend. especially if you support west ham this season. battling to avoid premier league relegation whilst also trying to win a major european trophy. last sunday manchester united went a long way to secure their survival and they still have that europa league confidence against an alkmaar to come this thursday. mark noble hung up his boots last summer but has been relishing his new role as sporting

haven't felt like it has been an issue in the relegation battle. but i have witnessed what it has been like this year. i know it hit and for the new boys coming in from abroad, not knowing what it, a premier league relegation battlers like, just giving my experience, doing stuff in the background on recruitment and how you want to shake things at the club. but in essence, there wasn't a lot to do in terms of knowing injanuary that essence, there wasn't a lot to do in terms of knowing in january that we weren't going to bundles of money. so it's a case of getting the players together making sure we stay in the league and rebuilding in the summer. in in the league and rebuilding in the

you can start looking forward now and hopefully we will pick up more points before the season finishes. the premier league is a demanding league and not only with the players and clubs but the press and everyone jumps on the bandwagon when a team is doing well and that's probably the reason why there's been 13 or 1a seconds this year. whether the owners or feeling like they have to do something. it does make a massive, how can i say? makes a massive, how can i say? makes a massive reason for owners to make a reaction. i massive reason for owners to make a reaction. ., ., ., , ., massive reason for owners to make a reaction. ., ., ., i. ., reaction. i have to ask you about declan because _ reaction. i have to ask you about declan because he _ reaction. i have to ask you about declan because he took - reaction. i have to ask you about declan because he took over- reaction. i have to ask you about declan because he took over as l declan because he took over as captain from you. there was a social media clip of him on sunday walking down and seeing the young lad and giving him his shirt and

down and seeing the young lad and giving him his shirtand he down and seeing the young lad and giving him his shirt and he seems to represent the club in such fantastic ways but he also did an interview with match of the day extra where he is going through his favourite tunes and stuff and i can't imagine you doing that somehow. but he is a new breed of football player and almost epitomises west ham and has been a worthy successor in terms of a captain of this football club. if you do win the trophy, he is the one who is going to lift it. it would seem a fitting thing for him to do. and i have said for the amount of time been asked about declan, as captain of the club. many years, when i say are resigned to the fact, i don't like using those words but... if it was anyone to replacement captain, was him. and i was really happy about that. it gave me a bit of comfort that it would be

like that, the heat that is him. he has a big heart, such a kind person. at times actually said to him, in opposition you can't be nice to everyone because people will take of you. but he knows that and he is such a great ambassador for the club could it is small thing that the under eights had their first could it is small thing that the under eights had theirfirst signing are not many clubs do it but at west ham, we get all the family zen and the under eights and you give them a shout with their name on the back and show them videos and they have a great day. their first ever contract they sign, you know i mean. a great day for the families, their under eights and under nines and declan showed up to it. i was there and he showed up to it. i was there and he showed that up and all the kids jumped on him and you don't get that from captains in the premier league. they're too busy doing what they are doing and that is just the person he

is and people don't see that. so i am glad that whoever affirmed that it got everyone to see notjust how good a player he is broke... he is a better person than he is a player and that is saying something. more via the bbc sport website and if you want to catch up with other episodes of the football show, why not head over to a player. until next time, thanks for watching. goodbye. hello there. it's a pretty quiet weather story indeed for the upcoming week and beyond because high pressure looks to be dominating the scene quite well. so it's going to be mostly dry. there will be a few showers around, mostly across the north of the uk. could be quite cool as well to start this new week, certainly monday and tuesday, both by day and by night, but it will warm up slightly towards the end of the week. now, the game changer has been this weather front,

a cold front with some rain on it that's been spreading southwards and eastwards across the country through today, it'll be lying across the southeast by the end of tonight. so a mild—ish night here, but further north west and the clear skies, quite a chilly one to come. could even see a touch of frost or temperatures down to freezing, i should say. some of the sheltered glens across scotland. so, chilly start to the day and you can see why we're in this chilly air mass for monday. still high pressure with us, so it's going to be mostly fine and dry. now, we lose that weather front from the southeast. it'll take the rain with it and then it's bright for many from monday, sunshine and showers, order of play for the afternoon. most of the showers. scotland, northern ireland, northern and eastern england. quite a keen breeze there. and again across the north of scotland. probably best of the drier weather, wales in the south west where we could see 16 degrees, but for most it's the low to mid—teens. that is quite cool for this time of year. and then as we move through monday night, largely clear skies, light winds, that cooler air mass is going to turn chilly once again. could see some mist and fog developing here and there.

so into tuesday, we've still got high pressure with us, fewer isobars for many of the winds will be light away from the north of scotland, which we'll also see this weak weather front that could enhance the cloud and shower activity for the northern half of scotland. we could see the odd shower into northern ireland, perhaps northern england too, but the southern half of britain should tend to stay dry after that cool start. should see quite a bit of sunshine, a bit of fair weather cloud, top temperatures, maybe up to 17 degrees. it's the low to mid—teens again in the north. and then as we move out from tuesday into wednesday, our area of high pressure topples a little bit further eastwards. that will start to bring some slightly milder air off the atlantic. you can see the blue tinge there just fading away as the yellows take over. so it's not going to be a heat wave by any means, but the temperatures will tend to climb a little bit towards the end of the week and there should be quite a bit of sunshine around. it should be mostly dry, all thanks to high pressure.
