and number on the back. three men were arrested for abusing the brazilian last weekend, one of multiple incidents he's experienced this season. prolific figures across the game have been giving their reaction to events this week. it's a disgusting situation. i think it's so bad that actually it looks like it is going to force change so i'm hoping that there will be something positive to come from it because i think it has taken a central story, because i think it has taken a centralstory, notjust because i think it has taken a central story, notjust in spain but across europe and around the world and that can only help to affect change. arne slot has ruled out a move to tottenham hotspur. the dutchman led feyenoord to their first eredivise title in six years and it had been reported that spurs had identified him as their number one choice as a fulltime managerial replacement for antonio conte who was sacked in march. slot says, "my wish is to stay at feyenoord and continue working on what we created last year. there is not — and there has not

been — transfer conversation." roberto de zerbi could now be on tottenham's radar after the italian helped brighton secure european football for the first time in their history. a point against the champions manchester city at the amex stadium guaranteed that they will be playing in the europa league next season. phil foden put city ahead in the first half but brighton's paraguayan teenager julio enciso scored a stunning equaliser. the point means that brighton take sixth spot, their highest finish in the top division. it isa it is a fantastic goal, we achieved an incredible target for brighton and for brighton players and we are very happy. the final day of the premier league season is on sunday, there's one match before then,

manchester united need just a point at home to chelsea later to make sure that they stay in the top four and qualify for the champions league next season. we are in a project, we want to go back and win trophies. we win one trophy, we want to win more trophies, we want to compete for the best but we are still on a journey and we are still in a journey, but i think we are in the right direction but we can always be better because goat is not good enough. as for chelsea, well they are heading for their worst premier league finish in over 25 years. they will definitely finish in the bottom half, they are 12th at the moment in a season in which they have sacked 2 managers, and interim boss frank lampard has been unable to stop their fall down the table. premier league moves on very fast, everyone is trying to do the same

thing and these themes are getting themselves in the equation now. in my experience in football as if you switch it off, it is not easy to switch it off, it is not easy to switch it off, it is not easy to switch it back on so it doesn't become an overnight remedy but from my experience of being in a consistent performing club and squad for many years, the managers who do switch off find it hard to switch it on so that will be the test next year. spanish world cup winner andres iniesta fought back tears as he annouced that he's leaving the japanese club vissel kobe after five years. the 39—year—old former barcelona midfielder says he wants to continue his playing career translation: thank you so much to all my team-mates, _ translation: thank you so much to all my team-mates, current - all my team—mates, current team—mates and the staff so treated me with respect. i have been proud to share the stage of my life with all of you. as captain, i have

always tried to be a role model on and off the pitch and support the club in all aspects. ice hockey, florida panthers have reached the stanley cup final for the first time since 1996. they completed a clean sweep against carolina hurricanes, matthew tkachuk scored the winning goal with five seconds on the clock. cue huge celebrations as they claimed the prince of wales trophy for winning the eastern conference. the last thing that were going to do is be superstitious about not touching it or anything. nobody said we were going to make glass and i think it's critical to touch it and carry it around and take pictures with it. we definitely didn't do it the easy way so i thought we earned it. ithink if the easy way so i thought we earned it. i think if you're blocking shots, taking hits and doing

everything you can't win a trophy like that you might as well. plenty more on the _ like that you might as well. plenty more on the bbc _ like that you might as well. plenty more on the bbc news _ like that you might as well. plenty more on the bbc news sports - like that you might as well. plenty - more on the bbc news sports website. the chief constable of police scotland — which covers the entire country — has admitted the force is institutionally racist, sexist and misogynistic. sir iain livingstone said prejudice and bad behaviour within the force was "rightly of great concern". this is what he's been saying. the meaning of institutional racism set out by sir william macpherson in 1999 and his report on the appalling murder of stephen lawrence in 1993 is rightly very demanding. the phrase, the terminology, however, can and as often misinterpreted or misrepresented as unfair and personal critical assessments of police officers and police staff as individuals.
11:52 am
that is not the case. does institutional discrimination mean our police officers and police staff are racist and sexist? no, it absolutely does not. i have great confidence in the character and values of our people. i am proud of police scotland. i am proud of my colleagues, proud of my officers and staff. so i know and i have shared the reservations and concerns about acknowledging that institutional discrimination exists in policing. however, it is right for me. it's the right thing to do for me as chief constable to clearly state the institutional racism, sexism, misogyny and discrimination exist. police scotland is institutionally racist and discriminatory. publicly acknowledging these institutional issues exist

in our organisation is essential to our absolute commitment to championing equality and becoming an anti—racist service. it is also critical to our determination to lead wider change and support wider change in society. prejudice and bad behaviour within policing highlighted by court and conduct cases, various independent reviews and by listening to our own officers and staff over recent years is rightly of great concern. utterly condemned. there is no place in police scotland for those who reject our values and standards. our vigilance as an organisation has never been stronger. rigorous recruitment, enhanced vetting, more visible conduct outcomes and a focus on prevention. every officer in scotland swears an oath when they take up the office of constable to do their duty with fairness, integrity, diligence and impartiality, upholding human rights and according equal respect
11:54 am
to our fellow citizens. according to law. such an oath requires high levels of personal accountability. our officers and staff, my colleagues do incredible things to keep our community safe, to keep their fellow citizens safe. they take their duties and responsibilities incredibly seriously. their success is illustrated by the strong bond of trust we share with the public of scotland and our role as a service of first and last resort in times of crisis. but we know, i know, that people from different backgrounds or with different requirements don't always get the service that is their right. we know that for the same reasons, our own officers and staff don't always have the experiences they deserve. when an organisation doesn't have all the necessary policies, processes, practices and systems in place to ensure that
11:55 am
doesn't happen, it's an institutional matter. a candid, clear assessment of institutional discrimination means recognising our absolute duty to provide just and effective policing for all according to their specific needs and circumstances. it also requires identifying and removing the deep rooted barriers to achieving this. one of the world's most wanted genocide suspects, a rwandan former police chief, has been arrested in south africa. he is alleged to have orchestrated the killing of approximately 2,000 tutsi refugees at the catholic church during the 1994 genocide against the tutsis in rwanda, that's according to the international residual mechanism for criminal tribunals. now it's time for a look at the weather. hello, there.

11:58 am
towns and cities as we go into bank holiday monday. for northern areas, temperatures up into the mid to high teens. for more southern areas, we'll see temperatures getting up to about 19 to 21, maybe 22 degrees celsius. so plenty of fine, dry and warm weather to come in the coming days. that's all from me. bye bye.
