at an estimated cost of £5 billion a year. now on bbc news, it's sportsday. hello and welcome to sportsday — i'm hugh ferris. the headlines this evening. england turn on the afterburners against chile. they're crusing to a third win out of three at the rugby world cup. they're the number one team in the world, so maybe they won't need the luck. ireland and south africa meet in the pick of the pool stage games in paris. in the pick of the pool i in the pick of the pool think ireland, we are numbe i think ireland, we are number one in the world and we were win the world cup.

the fight back is nearly complete at finca cortesin. europe are on the march on the solheim cup�*s second afternoon also coming up on sportsday... six out of six and a five—point lead. manchester city win again in the premier league. hello again. it's the weekend at the rugby world cup where tickets to both the quarter finals and the plane home could start being booked. the scalps could come as high profile as australia tomorrow, while ireland and wales might be thinking about the last eight. as are england, who are heading for three wins out of three. there isn't long to go in lille where they're playing chile, the lowest—ranked team in the tournament. it's showed this afternoon. it took 20 minutes for henry arundell to open the scoring. it wouldn't be his last.

marcus smith scored arguably the pick off them as england sealed the bonus point before half time. arundell scored five tries in total as england totally overran the south americans — playing against a top tier team for the first time in their history. currently, england 7i—chile 0. from the lowest ranked team to the highest, two teams. it's only a pool match, but the winners of ireland against south africa at the stade de france tonight will take control of their group, which also includes scotland, and with it might make a significant statement about their ambitions to win the trophy. andy swiss is in paris. the atmosphere is building here in paris what is surely the most keenly anticipated match of this rugby world cup so far. ireland against

south africa, the world number one is against the world number two is. the reigning six nations champions against the reigning world champions. ireland have been in terrific form recently, they won their last 15 matches. they have scored some mi points in the first two matches of this world cup but they know they are in for a real battle. around 30,000 island supporters are expected to be here in paris. they have been enjoying themselves in the bars and the cafe is around the city centre. despite their challenge that lies in wait, they are in confident mood. i think ireland, they are in confident mood. i think ireland. that _ they are in confident mood. i think ireland, that played _ they are in confident mood. i think ireland, that played them, - they are in confident mood. i think ireland, that played them, we - they are in confident mood. i think ireland, that played them, we are| ireland, that played them, we are the best team, we are number one in the best team, we are number one in the world and we will win the world cup. i the world and we will win the world cu -. ~ f the world and we will win the world cu -. ~ j ., the world and we will win the world cu . _ ~ y�* ., ., cup. i think they're going to win. 10096. cup. i think they're going to win. 100%- reign _ cup. i think they're going to win. 10096. reign number— cup. i think they're going to win. 10096. reign number one - cup. i think they're going to win. 10096. reign number one in - cup. i think they're going to win. 10096. reign number one in the l cup. i think they're going to win. - 10096. reign number one in the world.

100%. reign number one in the world. island _ 100%. reign number one in the world. island fans _ 100%. reign number one in the world. island fans are fed and believe that they can beat south africa. the coach has made one change to the side that changed beat tonga. they will know that south africa is a hugely impressive unit. they have some lightning quick backs and such physical power among the forwards. there has been a lot of attention on the replacement bench because they have seven forwards on the replacements bench. that means that potentially, they could bring on pretty much an entire new pack and thatis pretty much an entire new pack and that is a daunting prospect for any team. remember, this is a great game so defeat would be the end the world for either side but it would be a chance to make some statement, so ireland against south africa, nearly upon us, kick off is at eight o'clock your time. the day's other game produced the first draw of the tournament, with portugal a kick away

from a historic win. it finished 18—18 against georgia in toulouse. georgia led for much of the game but after two quick portuguese tries needed this from tengizi zamtaradze to draw level. they missed the conversation, but with the clock ticking past 80, nuno sousa guedes also couldn't convert a penalty that would have provided portugal with a first ever world cup win. it turns out losing every one of the opening foursomes was not a sign of things to come for europe at the solheim cup. yesterday, fightback is threatening to become a full on turnaround this afternoon. jane dougall reports. at solheim cup, the fans can set the tone. the americans were within reach, europe's captain feel the excitement. her player delivered. spaniard got the other. but she

wanted more. both sets of fans happy after two morning victories each. an eagle got the usa of their mark in the afternoon but europe were flying. the afternoon but europe were fl inc. . ., ., ., ., flying. nice to get one there. leona maauire flying. nice to get one there. leona maguire doesn't _ flying. nice to get one there. leona maguire doesn't smile _ flying. nice to get one there. leona maguire doesn't smile often, - flying. nice to get one there. leona maguire doesn't smile often, that l maguire doesn't smile often, that shot deserve when i led to a convincing win.— shot deserve when i led to a convincing win. shot deserve when i led to a convincin: win. .,, ., , convincing win. europe looked to be on the charge- _ day two is very much nearing its completion in southern spain with just one match on call. jane, straight back to you for the latest. we just saw caroline had ruled

there. she and her partner had finished their map —— match, unfortunately they lost, despite that great play from the europeans. that took usa to eight points, to seven for europe. but they want to and one, the score was usa 8— europe seven at that point. there is still one match in play at we speak. they both got point this morning, with different partners. they are two up. with two holes to play. if they keep that going, if they don't drop any shots, if they don't lose any holes, then that would mean, could mean, that europe go into the final day

8-8 with that europe go into the final day 8—8 with the that europe go into the final day 8-8 with the usa that europe go into the final day 8—8 with the usa and if they do that, then yes, what an incredible fightback from going four points down on the first morning of play. at the moment, it is usa eight, europe seven. at the moment, it is usa eight, eumpe seven-— at the moment, it is usa eight, europe seven. when we spoke half four yesterday. _ europe seven. when we spoke half four yesterday, 4-0 _ europe seven. when we spoke half four yesterday, 4-0 it _ europe seven. when we spoke half four yesterday, 4-0 it was - europe seven. when we spoke half four yesterday, 4-0 it was to - europe seven. when we spoke half four yesterday, 4-0 it was to the l four yesterday, 4—0 it was to the usa, there are still a few putts to be held, to go level, that would be quite an achievement for europe? yes, there was a feeling that going into today, that europe were going to someone special. they sort of needed yesterday morning to get their mistakes out of the way but they say you don't win a tournament on the first or even a second day. the singles can change everything. there have been many occasions where either the usa or europe had been trailing going into the last eight and they have overcome the opposition and they have one. it is

an individual game. tomorrow, and europe could be going into bit level with the usa. we will find out. thank you very much indeed. it is eight — 80 —— 8—8. champions manchester city's perfect start to the season continues after their seventh straight win, and sixth in the premier league. they beat nottingham forest 2—0 at the etihad. erling haaland adding to phil foden�*s opener with both goals in the first m minutes. the game stayed that way partly because rodri was sent off for city, 27 seconds after the break, the fastest second half red card in the premier league on record. no complaints and after a while, we make five in the bag and the players in the middle, and fill after, they were amazing, even adding and you

play more and more. we conceded 95 minutes, apart from that, we did concede once. in general, it was a really good game. luton finally have their first point of the season, after a hard fought draw against wolves, who spent the second half with ten men. pedro neto put the visitors ahead before luton pulled one back from the penalty spot through carlton morris. the fact that i'm standing here now and saying we should have won the game, we've got something. we have got that off our backs and we move forward. the other 3pm kick off finished goalless between crystal palace and fulham at selhurst park, perhaps understandable seeing they're next to each other in the table. brentford and everton kicked off at 5:30. latest score is 1—1. later on, burnley host manchester united, who have slipped down the table after three league defeats in a row.

add to that the problems manager erik ten hag is having off the field, and it's a challenging time for the dutchman. it's not always only going up. you will have your gaps. you get stronger from it as long as you stay together and that's what we are doing, all the staff, coaches, medical, everyone is united and at united you fight. the current edition of the football news show features a preview to the north london derby, not only the game of the weekend in terms of the two clubs' league position, but also with the arrival of ange postecoglou to lift spurs' expectations, and arsenal building on their best season in years, the next chapter of their rivalry takes on an extra signficance. with more, here's ben croucher. what a game it should be at the

emirates on sunday. but little to separate them, five games into this. michael brown is with us. how do you see this one playing out? it is surely going _ see this one playing out? it is surely going to _ see this one playing out? it is surely going to be _ see this one playing out? it is surely going to be an - see this one playing out? it 3 surely going to be an exciting game. lots of chances, teams that want to play at the front foot. spurs side getting forward, getting a position, the excitement all around spurs at this moment in time but defensively, still going to be the worry with that fact that arsenal have got. they are going to be have —— they are going to have to be so good in the setup. are going to have to be so good in the setu -. ., . _, . ., the setup. how much confidence are arsenal going _ the setup. how much confidence are arsenal going to _ the setup. how much confidence are arsenal going to get _ the setup. how much confidence are arsenal going to get from _ the setup. how much confidence are arsenal going to get from that - arsenal going to get from that performance in the champions league? i think they will get confidence. getting results in the champions league, i think they will also have some fatigue from it. i think spurs can capitalise on that. they are not

so confident in this moment of time. the way they have set up, a few changes for arsenal. it is certainly going to be a tough test for spurs. i think it's going to be the one. straightaway, if spurs it managed with everything from the game, it is going to be, i was saying anything different when it's a the team away from home wester of the sea, with got a poor record at the emirates as well. so let's hope it's a real positive one and they can continue on this journey with excitement all around the football club. irate on this journey with excitement all around the football club.— around the football club. we also asked david _ around the football club. we also asked david preece _ around the football club. we also asked david preece who - around the football club. we also asked david preece who should l around the football club. we also | asked david preece who should be number one for arsenal and the former arsenal midfielder adrian clarke debates and more with michael

as well. you can find us on the bbc iplayer. elsewhere, scottish premiership leaders celtic had keeper joe hart sent off. but still managed to win 3—0 at livingston. celtic had two men sent off in their midweek champions league defeat, but only had to wait 13 minutes for reo hatate to put them ahead. thenjoe hart clattered into mohammed sangare outside the penalty area and received the first red card of his career. even down to ten men, celtic continued to prosper and matt 0 riley made it 2—0 before daizen maeda scored the goal of the game. celtic are two points clear of st mirren, who beat hearts 1—0. hibs beat stjohnstone while the ten men of dundee scored an injury time equaliser to draw 2—2 against kilmarnock. tanya 0xtoby�*s first match as northern ireland manager ended in a 3—0 nations league defeat to the republic of ireland. the republic went at the visitors from kick—off and lucy quinn's deflected shot gave them the lead after half an hour. the second goal was down to a mix up between defender and keeper, leaving

kyra carusa with a simple task. lily agg added another late on. on tuesday, ireland visit hungary whilst northern ireland host albania. you're watching sportsday. time for a look at some of our other headlines. british number one cameron norrie has cruised into the quarterfinals of the zhuhai championship in china. he beat australian qualifier marc polmans 6—0, 6—3. andy murray is out — beaten by aslan karatsev of russia in three sets. scotland's biggest and most valuable flat race, the ayr gold cup, was won by the joint favourite significantly. jockeyjoe fanning had to be patient as he just managed to find a space in time to squeeze through before the line. it's the first time trainer julie camacho has won the famous sprint handicap. pole sitter marco bezzecchi's poor start in the sprint race cost him dear as india made its debut on the motogp calendar. the italian was almost taken out by his team mate

at the first corner, but recovered to finish fifth. spain'sjorge martin took the chequered flag ahead of championship leader francesco bagnaia. normal service resumed in formula one, with runaway championship leader max verstappen securing pole for the japanese grand prix, with last weekend's singapore race proving to be a blip. the world champion's red bull was charging once more as he claimed the top spot by more than half a second. 0scar piastri repaid mclaren's faith in handing him a contract extension byjoining verstappen on the front row. his team mate lando norris was the highest placed british driver in third. it's been really enjoyable the whole weekend. a lot of fun to drive and it gave me a lot of confidence to push, especially in the first sector, it has been really nice to drive, especially in qualifying.

england have beaten ireland by 48 runs in the second match of the one day international series. the first match was rained off in leeds earlier this week. so at trent bridge, zak crawley captained england for the first time. the test opener had such a good summer with the bat during the ashes, but he fell for a second ball duck here. england were going along well though, watched again by andrew flintoff who's still helping out in their dressing room. willjacks got 94 off 88 balls, and england eventually closed on 334 for 8, their big hitting giving plenty in the crowd a chance to get in on the catching. ireland scored quickly in their reply but lost regular wickets, matthew potts got two, and 19—year—old spinner rehan ahmed showed his potential with four of his own, that delivery the pick of them. ireland's last wicket stand went past 50 runs but england eventually made this match safe — the last outing of this series is on tuesday in bristol. ahead of next summer's paris 0lympics, britain'sjoe clarke has laid down a very impressive marker — by becoming the k1 kayak world champion.

the gold medallist from rio produced a near perfect pair of runs to win his first world title — finishing nearly two seconds quicker than the current olympic champion jiri prskavec in front of a home crowd in london. the victory also secures clarke's place in team gb for paris next year — having controversially missed out on qualification for the tokyo games. how to put into words. thank you so much the crowd who were with me the whole time. oh, god, world champion at home. it doesn't get better than this, so thank you. canoeing is one of those sports where the quality of the water in which they compete not only matters a great deal, but is under more scrutiny than ever before. the head of uk sport katherine grainger has spoken of her frustration at the levels of pollution in the country's rivers and seas. and the impact that's having

on athletes who compete in outside water—based events. she said the authorities have a duty to make it better. alex ca pstick reports. in sport, athletes work hard to achieve great things, like at this week's world canoe slalom championships at the lee valley white water centre, just outside london. but away from here, whether it's in competition to win trophies orjust for exercise, getting on or in the water is becoming a health risk. pollution, much of it caused by sewage pumped into the waterways and seas around britain, is making people ill. this year's henley rowing regatta was marred by complaints of dirty water. a top windsurfer left for spain after describing conditions off the south coast as like "surfing in a sewer." and last month, 57 athletes were reported as sick following a world triathlon championship in sunderland. an interim report said norovirus was to blame, but the source was unknown and that the water had tested safe. increasingly, though, it's an issue that's a big concern

for those priming the country's athletes for world and olympic medals. we want to put on the best platform for our athletes to perform, and anything that kind of, that's in the way of that that's frustrating, that causes problems, either to the ability for the athletes to perform or their health, is very frustrating because obviously it's so much time and effort and energy as well as investment goes into those moments for those athletes, and for the public, and to think that sometimes they get set back or get stopped because of issues in the environment we can do things about, it's frustrating. it's no surprise that some sports, like open water swimming, present a greater risk. this week, a pollution app run by surfers against sewage show the english and welsh coastline surrounded by red danger dots. a house of commons committee report last year concluded that contamination was rife in the uk's inland waterways, with only m% described as ecologically good. hector pardoe hopes

to represent team gb at next year's olympics in paris. he recently set a record for the fastest swim across lake windermere in cumbria as part of a campaign for cleaner waters in the lake district. when it rains, sewage companies think that it's acceptable to pump all of the sewage into our open water bodies. and they think that the fresh water landing in from the rain will dilute and almost mask that the pollution that they're pumping in. and it doesn't. and it really hinders our ability to swim in the open water. the government admits the situation in the country's waterways is completely unacceptable and that they're taking comprehensive action to tackle it. and water companies have announced a £10 billion investment plan. but sports are demanding a more urgent approach. we work with lots of other water sports. this is a problem for all water sports. whether you're an immersion sport or not, it does threaten participation because people are really concerned about this. so it is progressively getting worse, as we can see from the data we're seeing. and that's why we need

the government to go further, faster, to stem the tide of sewage pollution. as ever, it's the elite end of sport that grabs the headlines. but this is an issue that affects all levels of participation. and for the future of british water sports, it's becoming increasingly clear there's a need to provide a safe environment for everyone to enjoy. alex capstick, bbc news, lee valley. well, staying with one of those open water events, and for the second year in a row, alex yee has missed out on becoming world triathlon champion at the final race of the season. the olympic silver medallist lead the championship going into the event. but suffered from the start in pontevedra in north west spain. the briton was 48 seconds off the lead after the swim. that increased to two minutes and 17 seconds during the bike leg. dorian coninx of france won the race to claim the world title, finishing more than two and a half minutes ahead of yee, who ends the season fifth overall.

hello. in many parts of the uk, cloud amounts have been increasing during today, signalling a change for the rest of the weekend. some warmer but wetter and windier weather on the way. it's all thanks to a weather system that contains the remnants of what was hurricane nigel. certainly not a hurricane any more but providing an injection of tropical moisture into this area of low pressure. some very heavy rain across some western areas as we head through tonight. further pulses of rain returning to the south west of england and wales later on, quite windy for a time, particularly around western coasts and much, much milder than it was last night. by the end of the night, we will be between 10 and 16 degrees. sunday morning starting on a mild note but with low pressure firmly in charge, a couple of different frontal systems which will provide some outbreaks of very heavy rain. this rain tending to affect western and northern parts of the country, so western england, wales, northern ireland, western scotland seeing some outbreaks of rain. further south and east,

more in the way of dry weather, some spells of sunshine and actually with the southerly winds it is going to feel pretty warm in the south—east corner. large swathes actually of england and wales up to 20 or 21 degrees, even further north could see 18, i9, 20 across some northern parts of scotland. as we head through sunday evening, this band of very heavy, squally rain pushing across south—west england and wales. northern ireland very wet for a time and that rain really setting in across scotland, perhaps enough rain for some flooding and disruption. gusts of wind of 50 or 60 mph. through sunday night into monday, that frontal system sweeps away eastwards but low pressure will still be firmly in charge of our weather, so for monday, yes, there will be spells of sunshine, i think parts of england and wales will stay dry but northern ireland and scotland seeing some pretty hefty showers, it stays quite windy. temperatures of 15 to 22 degrees, so broadly speaking above the norm for the time of year. then as we head towards the middle part of the week we will have to keep a close eye on this one. a developing area of low pressure.

huge uncertainty aboutjust how deep this low might become, exactly where it will move across the uk, but the chance for some very heavy rain and possibly some very strong winds around the middle part of the week. broadly speaking, a very unsettled week ahead.

live from london. this is bbc news. following friday's missile strike on russia's black sea fleet headquarters in occupied crimea — ukraine's military intelligence chief claims russian commanders are among those injured. meanwhile russia's top diplomat lashed out at the us and the west — as self—interested defenders of a fading international order — as president putin pointed out, the west is one that is truly an empire of lies. russia, like many countries, knows about this first—hand. in the uk — borisjohnson urges the government not to scale back
