welcome to the programme, lots to get through, but we start with the champions league where the group stages have reached the halfway point — and the current holders look like they're the team to beat. manchester city have maintained their 100 per cent record in the group stages — making it three wins from three after beating young boys 3—1. manuel akanji put city ahead before young boys equalised with a brilliant finish from meschack elia but a penalty and a late strike from erling haaland meant city take home all three points. they're also three points clear of rb leipzig who beat red star belgrade 3—1. newcastle's unbeaten start to the tournament is over. they went down 1—0 to borussia dortmund — felix nmecha with the goal. newcastle were unfortunate not to get a point late on — as they hit the posts twice.

defeat leaves them 3rd in the group after psg thrashed ac milan 3—0. celtic have got their first point of this year's competition — but they arguably should have had more. they led twice at celtic park, but twice atletico madrid came back into it — alvaro morata with the spanish side's second as the match finished 2—2. feyenoord top the group after beating lazio 3—1. elsewhere, porto came from behind to beat royal antwerp 4—1 and barcelona have made it 3 wins from 3 — as they beat shakhtar donetsk 2—1 at home which sets them up nicely for saturday's el clasico against real madrid in la liga. we will get there. will arrive in top shape. we must — will arrive in top shape. we must now— will arrive in top shape. we must now disconnect and rest until— must now disconnect and rest until tomorrow. we must enjoy this victory. it is a very important one for us. the points— important one for us. the points which are vital for us

australia to a record win against the netherlands. joe lynskey was watching. he came up to bat forjust 11 overs next. what came next was j°y overs next. what came next was joy and chaos. glenn maxwell took aim for the night sky and broke a world cup record, a century against the netherlands scored in a0 balls of breathless crickets. what a shot that is, that is insane. . ., ., ., , insane. that the extraordinary shot not insane. that the extraordinary shot got max _ insane. that the extraordinary shot got max up _ insane. that the extraordinary shot got max up to _ insane. that the extraordinary shot got max up to 50. - insane. that the extraordinary shot got max up to 50. 14 - insane. that the extraordinary| shot got max up to 50. 14 balls shot got max up to 50. 1a balls later, he doubled his score. for the netherlands, it felt cruel. there world cup has been assigned a cricket's growth around the world, now it all went against them. the hundred came at nine fours and eight sixes. ., . ., , ., came at nine fours and eight sixes. ., , ., �*, sixes. that could be at! it's bein: sixes. that could be at! it's being walloped! _ sixes. that could be at! it's being walloped! a - sixes. that could be at! it's being walloped! a fitting i being walloped! a fitting tribute for _ being walloped! a fitting tribute for his _ being walloped! a fitting tribute for his newborn l being walloped! a fitting . tribute for his newborn son, logan maverick maxwell. australia had made 399, it would be too much for the dutch. they were bowled out for

90, more than 300 runs short. it made this the world cup�*s largest winning margin, a day of records for australia and find maxwell's greatest hits. i love the fastest 50, fastest 100 records. i think they are pretty cool records and sometimes, to the detriment of myself, i've always probably push the boundaries a bit too much. i've been in those positions before where i could make vast hundreds, when i get on a run, i know i'm difficult to bowl two. it is just about getting past the first ball. fantastic innings to get the fastest _ fantastic innings to get the fastest hundred and world cup history— fastest hundred and world cup history is— fastest hundred and world cup history is not something you see every— history is not something you see every day. as he came in, he sort — see every day. as he came in, he sort of— see every day. as he came in, he sort of looked like he was on edge _ he sort of looked like he was on edge from the start. obviously made us pay. he helped himself and we helped him a — helped himself and we helped him a little as well. what a fantastic— him a little as well. what a fantastic innings and he hit all corners of the ground.

it's been a day of double retirements for two british rugby players. wales fly half leigh halfpenny has revealed the match against the barbarians a week on saturday will be his last international appearance, while ben youngs, england's most capped men's player, will end his international career after the world cup third—place play—off against argentina on friday — winning his 127th and youngs made his test debut against scotland in march 2010 when current coach steve borthwick was captain. i feel incredibly proud to have done it for this long. i think it's taken a huge amount of effort to do it for 13 years, and it's just fitting. it feels right. i feel so privileged to be able to play and walk away on my terms. i've always had this focus of getting to this world cup, and i neverfelt that after this world cup, i would need to carry on or anything like that. i look forward to playing club rugby and look forward to supporting this team from a distance, but it's been a great ride. ben has been a tremendous

player for english rugby for such a long time. our record cap holder test appearances player who has seen a lot, been to four world cups, and i think has played an important role within the squad, this world cup helping, particularly mitchell, helping the team progress through this tournament, so i think a guy who is a brilliant player and a fantastic team man. meanwhile england captain owen farrell says the online abuse tom curry has recieved is unacceptable. curry appears to have been targeted after claiming he was racially abused by bongi mbonambi during england's semi—final defeat to south africa last weekend. world rugby are investigating the incident. what isn't understandable is the amount of abuse he has got. the effect that that has, notjust on him, as well, is the bit that i and we, i don't think we really

understand it. it seems to be going more and more like this, but it shouidh'i— more and more like this, but it shouldn't be. meanwhile the rugby football union have revealed talks are underway for a women's international against new zealand at twickenham next year — in what would be a repeat of last year's world cup final. england's women first played at twickenham last year — when over 58,000 fans watched them beat france to win the six nations grand slam. really exciting as a squad, to be honest. we are a squad that wants to keep breaking world records, and what better place to do it than at twickenham, again, against new zealand? i think another stand—alone game. the others we had the island one in six nations, but you have new zealand there, it will be a game we want to be

involved in. it's been a day to forget for two british tennis players. despite winning the first set, andy murray lost in three to argentine tomas etchevery in the second round of the swiss indoors. and in vienna, fellow brit cameron norrie is out of the austrian open, also in the second round. he was beaten in straight sets by 5th seed alexander zverev — losing 6—2, 6—a, in a match that lasted just over an hour. no problems for the defending champion daniil medvedev though as he eased through to the last 16. the top seed beat frenchman arthur fils in straight sets, losing just five points on his on serve. wins too for gael monfils and jannik sinner. the route for next year's tour de france has been revealed — with the race starting in florence and, because of the olympics, it'll will end in nice rather than paris. there are eight stages that could favour the sprinter mark cavendish as he looks to break the stage victories record he shares with eddie merckx, although the manx rider says he's "shocked at how hard this tour is". and the countdown is on until the world heavyweight champion tyson fury takes

on former ufc champion francis ngannou on saturday. ahead of that bout — the pair have held an open workout in riyadh. fury is the favourite to win the fight — but none of his heavyweight belts will be on the line should he suffer a shock defeat. and if you're a san antonio spurs fan, you're all set for an exciting night as victor wembanyama makes his regular season debut for the san antonio spurs. but the number one draft pick has already made his mark across the texas city with murals of him on buildings all over town. fans have completely embraced the 19 year old frenchman, who is tasked with turning the spurs' future around after a disappointing campaign last season. you can get all the latest sports news at from the bbc sport app, orfrom our website but from me and the rest of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye.

hello there. let's take a look at the latest weather for the week ahead. on wednesday, we did have some sunshine around, but it was a very wet start to the day across southern counties of england, particularly through hampshire and the isle of wight. you can see flooded roads there in east cowes on the island, not far from the ferry terminal. and whilst we did have a met office amber warning out for that heavy rain, it was significant. some parts of the island, in knighton, for example, seeing three weeks' worth of october rainfall injust over 12 hours. looking to the next few days, we hold on to this static pattern, really, of low pressure systems after low pressure systems bringing outbreaks of rain and their associated weather fronts with the jet stream

running to the south of us, directing them towards our shores. here is thursday. we've got outbreaks of rain from the overnight period working their way northwards towards the north—east of england and across parts of scotland as well. elsewhere through the midlands, in towards wales and the south, some sunshine but also a number of showers. same, too, across parts of northern ireland. temperatures in the south in the mid—teens, cooler further north. and then looking into thursday evening, you can see that rain still with us, tracking north in towards parts of the north—east of scotland and certainly across parts of the east and north—east, we could well see the rain totals mounting up as we head through the next few days. elsewhere, it's a little bit drier, but there will be some cloud and some outbreaks of rain. temperatures around 9—10 celsius as the overnight low. to friday, once again, low pressure situated towards the west, sending weather fronts our way. a brisk wind around the south—west through the channel there and across parts of the north—east coast of england and in towards eastern scotland as well, where that rain is set to continue. elsewhere, though, through much of england and wales, some sunshine, also a number of showers, similar across

parts of northern ireland. temperatures once again, 10—12 celsius across scotland, a little bit milderfurther south, in towards the mid—teens. so, saturday, it's a similar picture. we do have low pressure situated towards the west and outbreaks of rain and weather fronts working in from the south across parts of england, in towards wales and northern ireland. for scotland, we've got a wind coming in off the north sea, quite brisk at times, bringing some cloud and further outbreaks of rain. elsewhere on saturday, we've got some sunshine through parts of the east midlands, in towards east anglia as well, where we'll see temperatures in the mid—teens, perhaps 16 in the london area. on sunday, there's the jet stream once again just running to the south of us and directing areas of low pressure and rain our way. but just look where this weather front is here, because that is the dividing line between some colder air moving in from the north across parts of scotland, milder weather further south.

exactly where that weather front is likely to sit could well pose a few issues because along it, the rain could be heavy and persistent. and if that falls in areas where we've already seen some significant flooding, well, further impacts may well occur. further north, some sunshine, but a cool north wind. further south, it's milder temperatures once again, into the teens. and then beyond that into next week, well, thejet stream is still with us, still feeding in this conveyor belt of areas of low pressure. certainly midweek, that deep area of low pressure could well cause a few issues. but you can see on the outlook there, it is an unsettled picture as we round out the end of october and start november. that's the forecast for now.
