at liverpool, but cody gakpo, dominic szoboslai and diogo jota turned the game on it's head. reiss nelson scored the only goal for arsenal at brentford. james garner's first everton goal was followed up by dominic calvert lewin as they beat aston villa. so here's how the draw for the third round looks. the stand—outs see holders manchester united welcome newcastle, liverpool go to bournemouth, and west ham go up against arsenal, while league two side exeter�*s reward for knocking out premier league luton, is a home draw against middlesborough. a 700 mile round trip for those boro fans. ties will commence on the week of monday the 30th of october. there were also three quarter final ties played in the scottich cup. you martin boyle scored twice for hibs as they beat st mirren 4—2. rangers thrashed livingston at ibrox.graham shinnie graham shinnie and estaer sokler were on the scoresheet as aberdeen beat ross county, who had jack baldwin sent off after just 1a minutes. and here's the line up for the semi finals. hearts taking on rangers, it's hibs against aberdeen. both ties will take place at hampden on the weekend of fourth and 5th of november,

england 57—36 to level the series at 1—1 and take netball�*s tiny jamison trophy to a decider. the roses squad, which features no players from the team that finished as runners—up in the world cup, is being led by technical coach li—ana leota, and the decision liana leota, and the decision to take a relatively inexperienced group in to this series has drawn criticism from new zealand netball chief executive jenny wylie, who labelled them a "b—team". well, earlier, bbc sport's hugh ferris spoke to former england captain ama ab—wear—zay about how the silver captain ama abwearzay about how the silver ferns have reacted. they last, it almost seemed like they had put their foot off the pedal, they didn't see any names from the world cup, they thought, oh actually, this is people called it a b team from england. everybody

understands that teams have to 7 at some stage, it can'tjust be pushing forward with experience plays, people retire, people get injured. when you get new players into an international scenario, they need support around them. and for small amounts of time. new zealand would just start with a shot, almost no recognizable names. �* ., shot, almost no recognizable names. ~ . ., ., names. and that background to that 1st test — names. and that background to that 1st test and _ names. and that background to that 1st test and then _ names. and that background to that 1st test and then the - that 1st test and then the result that happened, has certainly led to some a new zealand saying perhaps the outrage that preceded it wasn't as well—placed as it might have been, and then perhaps new zealand need to concentrate on just winning matches rather than worrying about the strength of the opposition they are facing. this strength of the opposition they are facina. �* , ., strength of the opposition they are facing-— are facing. as a player you shouldn't _ are facing. as a player you shouldn't be _ are facing. as a player you shouldn't be concerned - are facing. as a player you | shouldn't be concerned with are facing. as a player you - shouldn't be concerned with who the opposition are bringing, you just prepare your respective team, prepare and play your best and deliver the best you have. there's probably

a little of unrest in new zealand in terms of they are worth so much concerned, i do think the ceo has the space to have those suspicions because as an international federation you are looking at ticket sales, you're looking at marketing, and that type of thing, so everyone i guess has a long—term strategic plan. so the team that were going, they thought it would impact on that plan and their sponsorships and that type of thing. just enough time to recap our top story... rory mcilroy says it redemption, not revenge, as europe look to regain the ryder cup in rome. you can get all the latest sports news at from the bbc sport app, orfrom our website — that's bbc.co.uk/sport. from me, will perry, and the rest of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. hello there. well, it's rather stormy

on wednesday out towards the north and the west, storm agnes clearing, of course, overnight. and then thursday, it's looking a lot calmer. it'll still be rather blustery, particularly through the morning. still some coastal gales in northern scotland, but some sunshine around for most, clouding overfrom the west into the afternoon. so, there goes storm agnes, that deep area of low pressure, gradually filling the winds, lightning and the rain pulling away, too. it is a mild start to thursday morning. temperatures no lower for most of us than 13—15 celsius, so more or less what some spots would expect to see by day at this time of year. now, we're between weather systems, so it's a dry and a bright start. still rather blustery out there. brisk south—westerly winds, possibly some coastal gales for northern scotland. clouding over from the west as we head through the afternoon and parts of northern ireland and western scotland, maybe western wales will see some showers a bit later on through the day as well. temperatures a little lower than they were on wednesday, but still mild for the time of year — 16—20 celsius for most. now, on thursday night, it does stay very mild indeed.

we'll still see some outbreaks of rain, possibly a little feature just moving into the south and the east as we head into friday morning, too, potentially. a mild start to the day — lows between 12—16 celsius at this time. now, a little feature could possibly give us some outbreaks of rain towards the south and the east on friday morning, perhaps, but that is set to clear away. some showers towards the north—west of scotland again. but in the middle, there'll be a lot of dry, bright weather, plenty of sunshine around. the winds are a lot lighter, and again, temperatures are expected to peak at around 17—20 celsius. so, again, above the seasonal average, and that's generally where they're expected to stay as we head through the course of the weekend as well. now, there will be some wet weather around at times, i think particularly on saturday, from this area of low pressure just pushing in from the west there. so, turning rather wet, rather windy, towards western areas of scotland, northern ireland, possibly western wales as well as we head through the afternoon. but further south and east, it does look as if it will stay largely dry.

again, temperatures in the mid to the high teens for most, maybe 20 celsius in the south. those temperatures in the south and the east climbing further on sunday for the start of october. bye— bye.
