two matches, home or grabbing another point that apparently proving one. and whilejustin rose showed a skull composure to win his match alongside bob mcintyre, in the fading light, a glimmer of us health as patrick can't lay one on the final hole in spectacular fashion. as patrick can't lay one on the final hole in spectacularfashion. a dramatic and to another dramatic day. andy, patrick, who wejust andy, patrick, who we just saw holding that very important cop to give the us the final point —— holding that final pot, is becoming a bit of a headline maker at this tournament this weekend. tell us why. tournament this weekend. tell us wh . , , , . tournament this weekend. tell us wh . , , , why. yes, this is an interesting sub - lot why. yes, this is an interesting subplot to _ why. yes, this is an interesting subplot to the _ why. yes, this is an interesting subplot to the american - why. yes, this is an interesting subplot to the american team, | subplot to the american team, reports of unrest in their camp with patrick can't lay very much at the centre of it. and this is because players are not paid to appear in the ryder cup, and patrick apparently is not particularly heavy
6:35 pm
about this. it was interesting that he was not wearing a team usa cap, unlike the rest of his team—mates. it was a hot day here as welcome as you can understand why players normally would want to wear a cap, but he wasn't. also he did not attend the gala dinner before or at the ryder cup. some suggestions that he is less than heavy with aspects of the ryder cup, but certainly you couldn't fault his commitment to the cause out there this afternoon or indeed that fantastic pot on the 18th hole. so, yes, we saw some fight from the us this afternoon, but you have to put it into a little bit of context. they are still five points behind europe. no team has ever come back from five points down going into the last day to win the ryder cup. we think back to the miracle of medina in 2012. airport 10-6 miracle of medina in 2012. airport 10—6 down. so they were four points down and came back to win. five planes has never been done. so the usa will frankly need a sporting
6:36 pm
miracle, but at last, that little bit of fight that they have shown this afternoon perhaps has given them a glimmer of hope.- this afternoon perhaps has given them a glimmer of hope. thank you ve much them a glimmer of hope. thank you very much indeed. _ manchester city have lost for the first time this premier league season. hwang hee chan's goal gave wolves a 2—1win at molineux ending the defending champions' perfect star and giving city a second defeat in four days after they went out of the efl cup. we struggle to make our build—up, our movements and, yeah, we had our chances, we struggle to control the transitions because they are really good, we defend really well in the top. manchester united's poor start to the season continues as they suffered a second successive league defeat at home. roy hodgson's crystal palace claimed a 1—0 win at old trafford — a goal from joachim andersen.
6:37 pm

6:38 pm
it's off our backs now. a little while coming, but we believe it, you know, we have been improving in every single game, and if people cared to look at us in the first game and follow us over the next few, they will see improvement in everyone. today we get our first when away from home. a difficult day for us. but let's not get carried away. in the end, it is one win, three points, we got a very big game on tuesday. in the day's early game brighton lost for only the second time in the league season, and it was a heavy one, beaten 6—1 at aston villa, who go above them and had a hattrick hero among their ranks. patrick gearey has more. the new shirt off—the—shelf, reporters complained that its heavy when sweaty, makers say they are dealing with that. perspiration is unavoidable when you work like that a lot, running that makes angles to score goals like this. in form in
6:39 pm
third, brighton where backpedaling, never a good idea with watkins around. aston villa are a team transformed, fuelled by the night and reads energy, cleverley and his 11 months in charge, he has given aston villa purpose. in the first half, they so dominated brighton that they cut them into —— coax them into scoring for them. step in accidentally needed three. brighton briefly gathered themselves after the break, creating enough gas for the break, creating enough gas for the on loan player to score, but still they hadn't worked out watkins. a little time, little deflection, hat trick and came over. evenif deflection, hat trick and came over. even if the scoring wasn't finished, jacob ramsey off the bench to add a fifth. douglas louisa sixth. a huge win achieved in comfort. no sweat. patric gary, bbc news. manchester city's defeat means we could have new leaders of the premier league tonight, a win for liverpool would do that. they're playing at spurs in the late game, but it's not going well. game, but are currently down to ten men following a curtisjones red card.
6:40 pm
not long after that, heung—min son scored for spurs, but in the dying embers of the half, cody gakpo equalised for the visitors, cleverly twisting in the box to score. however he may have hurt himself in the process, substitued at half time. the second half has just kicked off. elsewhere sheffield united and burnley are still waiting for their first wins of the league season, losing to west ham and newcastle respectively. and arsenal's 4—0 win at bournemouth takes them second for the time being, a point behind manchester city. rangers have lost for a third time in the scottish premiership, beaten 3—1 at aberdeen while celtic�*s 2—1 win at motherwell came in dramatic circumstances. the home side equalised in the 95th minute only for celtic to get the winner in the 97th. second placed st mirren drew while hearts' win at ross county takes them fourth. there's just one premier league game tomorrow clearing the way for the wsl to take centre stage. the new season brings with it big stars and high expectations. jo currie looks ahead.

we will be back at 7:30pm. goodbye for now. hello. after the bright but chilly start to the day, the rain has moved in as we've gone through the afternoon, moved in across northern ireland, northern england, much of wales, moving its way across scotland. you can see that cloud enveloping many areas, but in the south, it's stayed mainly dry and in the north of scotland. but the north of scotland will catch that rain as we go through this evening. we will keep those pulses running across parts of northern england and wales, and actually, it stays mostly dry if a little misty and foggy in the south overnight. further north, once the rain clears, just a few showers.
6:57 pm
but look at the temperatures. it's very mild overnight. 14—16 celsius in the south is what we'd see during the day as we head into the start of october. and that's because we've got humid air moving into the south of that weather front. so it will be quite a muggy night as well and a murky morning, we could have some low level mist and fog, some fog over the hills as well underneath this band of rain. and we'll see further heavy pulses moving through. so for some parts of snowdonia and cumbria, we could see 30—1i0 millimetres of rain falling. very different day for scotland and northern ireland. it'll be bright with a scattering of showers around here. temperatures 17—19 celsius. as i say, it is humid air. and if we do see the sunshine south of that weather front, 23—24 celsius for the start of october. then as we go through the evening and overnight into sunday, then we see that band of rain just creeping a little bit further south. but it never really gets really far south and clears the south east probably until tuesday. behind it, certainly
6:58 pm
a fresher night, but again, warm and muggy across the southern half of the uk. now the reason for that is because we're going to see another pulse of rain moving along that same weather front. so holding it up, slowing it from clearing away. but this time, because we've got so much muggy, humid air in train, there's more energy in the atmosphere, and we could see some really lively thunderstorms during the course of sunday night into monday, working their way across parts of england and wales. some real torrential downpours in places. to the north, another day of sunny spells and scattered showers. fairly fresh feeling here, but still quite warm and muggy and even underneath the showers and thunderstorms further south. now, that eventually clears out the way on tuesday. we'll see a dip in temperature briefly with sunny spells and showers to the north. but then later in the week, temperatures build in the south. bye— bye.
