with manchester city at the top of the early premier league table, with three wins from three, as ben croucher reports. if you want to endear yourself to fans, how about winning at old trafford in your first attempt as liverpool boss? so, arne slot, this premier league management lark isn't half bad, is it? they had already had a goal disallowed when they opened united up again. the ball found its way to mo salah, who found luis diaz, enjoying the freedom of stretford. to establish a lead for liverpool ten minutes out from half—time. casemiro was culpable for the first, and when he was caught on the ball seven minutes later, united had seen this one before. salah, diaz... and liverpool are fizzing in front here. champagne stuff. enjoy that one, arne? you will love the next bit, as slot�*s side swept forward again, and salah scored for the seventh game in a row at old trafford. sharpshooter. not every dutch

manager was thrilled. the majority of fans had suffered enough, seeing their side suffer back to back defeats. as for liverpool, games, goals, wins, keeping count. ben croucher, bbc news. so life afterjurgen klopp couldn't have started much better for new liverpool boss arne slot, who becomes the first manager to win his first three premier league games without conceding a single goal since the late sven—goran eriksson at manchester city in 2007. he's also the first liverpool boss to win his first enounter against manchester united since bob paisley in 1975. a contrasting day for the dutch men in charge of both sides. impressed, although they showed me in the last weeks that they can work so so hard, and i think that is what the shorter going today. but the main thing i was impressed about is that we were so dominant with the ball, and every time we had a midfielderfree, and ball, and every time we had a midfielder free, and that led

to a fantastic i—o. unfortunately, that one was disallowed, but we scored three afterwards, so we were still 0k. liverpool have some great players _ liverpool have some great players but i think we have such — players but i think we have such players were, and we came three _ such players were, and we came three times in very good positions, good finishes. it was— positions, good finishes. it was nearly there. so, we have even _ was nearly there. so, we have even more _ was nearly there. so, we have even more scoring abilities, so we will— even more scoring abilities, so we will be _ even more scoring abilities, so we will be fine. we have to improve, _ we will be fine. we have to improve, we know that. today, we have — improve, we know that. today, we have to _ improve, we know that. today, we have to be humble, we have to lake — we have to be humble, we have to take this but we will bounce back — newcastle's unbeaten start to the season continues — it's two wins from three for them now as they beat tottenham 2—1 at st james' park. a frustrating day for spurs, who had more of the ball and the chances, but couldn't make the most of it, as adam cottier now reports. recent trips to st james's park of being rather chastening for spurs, and they fell behind on

the latest visitors newcastle's harvey barnes, who had been restored to the starting 11, expertly guided in the cross. spurs's pursuit of response intensified after half—time. chances were spurned, and pedro porter's deflected cross came back off the crossbar. but ange postecoglou's anguish on the touch and quickly turned to elation. the equaliser handed to them about newcastle's dan burn, an equaliser, an own goal. newcastle welcome sandro tonali back. off the bench for his first premier league appearance since last october, and spurs were to be left squirming on tyneside again. joelinton's pass was inch perfect and another substitute, jacob murphy, had the presence of mind to give alexander isak the chance to score his first goal of the season. it's a — one win for newcastle and maintained their unbeaten

start. next up for tottenham after the international break as a london derby at home to arsenal. a bit of good fortune for newcastle, not that eddie howe minded that too much. the result always matters and it is always the most important thing but how you get the results indicate how successful you're going to be long—term, so we know that we have got a lot of work to do, a lot of things to improve, but running through the squad, i think we have characters and leaders and players with extreme ambition to do welcome and i think you can see the collective spirit in the performance as well. the tale of a season, so far. in both _ the tale of a season, so far. in both are _ the tale of a season, so far. in both are big games, we should _ in both are big games, we should have come away with more than we _ should have come away with more than we have. read more, controlled the game for the most — controlled the game for the most part. i felt we had enough chances — most part. i felt we had enough chances to— most part. i felt we had enough chances to win the game come to be. chances to win the game come to he i_ chances to win the game come to be. i thought the goal we conceded, the second one, was sl0ppy~ — conceded, the second one, was

sloppy. we lost focus, which was — sloppy. we lost focus, which was disappointing, but the game should _ was disappointing, but the game should have been put to bed a lot earlier— should have been put to bed a lot earlier than that. crystal palace have their first point of the season earlier as they drew i—i away at stamford bridge. chelsea were much the better side in the first half and squandarerd a number of chances before taking the lead when nicolas jackson slotted home past dean henderson. palace came back into it, though, after the halftime break, and drew level in the 53rd minute thanks to a superb individual effort from eberechi eze. we completely deserved to win the game with the amount of chances we had, and we didn't concede many chances, probably the only chance was the goal. a fantastic goal. ifeel the only chance was the goal. a fantastic goal. i feeljust a shame for the per�*s because it deserved to win the game, but the direction is clear. chelsea three years ago won the championship, but now it is not that kind of chelsea, so sometimes you don't win, it's

normal. a very tough game and we could see the — a very tough game and we could see the quality of chelsea, especially in the first—half. we had _ especially in the first—half. we had a great goalkeeper, and they were a bit lucky, but we adapted _ they were a bit lucky, but we adapted one or two things at half—time and i think in the second _ half—time and i think in the second half there was not really. _ second half there was not really, just at the end, there were — really, just at the end, there were two— really, just at the end, there were two transitions when you could — were two transitions when you could see _ were two transitions when you could see their peers, but they controlled the game. so, we were — controlled the game. so, we were very— controlled the game. so, we were very compact and we always had situations, and we scored a fantastic— had situations, and we scored a fantastic goal from eze. we had a great — fantastic goal from eze. we had a great chance, some really pleased _ a great chance, some really pleased with the performers to do more. — pleased with the performers to do more, and congratulations to the team — do more, and congratulations to the team for this performance. -- really— the team for this performance. —— really pleased with the performance today. next to the same old story in the old firm derby — celtic�*s recent dominance continuing as they beat rangers 3—0 to go back to the top of the scottish premiership. rangers have now won just one of the last 12 meetings between the two. our sports correspondent natalie pirks was watching. the passion of the derby — there's nothing quite like the old firm.

a win for celtic would take them top and open up a big lead over rangers. and despite a lively start from their rivals... celtic looked ready to party. var was not in the mood. not to worry, minutes later it was maeda, and this one word count. without the encouragement of away fans, still barred from old firm games, rangers were wilting. kyogo was determined to turn up the heat. he has taken this on! rangers simply had to be better. initial signs in the second half were encouraging. but every miss was fuel for celtic and callum mcgregor underlined their superiority. mind the gap. brendan rodgers' derby day dominance continues. natalie pirks, bbc news. two other games in the premiership — hearts suffered their sixth

defeat in a row as dundee united maintained their strong premiership return to move up to third going into the international break with a 1—0 win. ross graham with the winner. hibernian were denied a first scottish premiership win of the season after conceding a stoppage—time equaliser at kilmarnock. it finished i—i. in the championship, watford's perfect start to the season is over after a 1—0 defeat at sheffield united. the only goal of the game came in the second minute, callum o hare's run forced the error from the keeper who put the ball into his own net. sheffield united move up to eighth whilst watford stay third. next to a record breaking day for great britain at the paralympics, their most successful ever in terms of gold medals won. rowing, cycling and swimming have all brought success, and in the last hour they've won their first gold on the athletics track too. our correspondent andy swiss is in paris for us. on what's been a day to remember for paralympics gb.

have been gold _ of gold medals elsewhere. there have been gold medals - have been gold medals everywhere you look to do more. earlier on, there are three gold medals in the velodrome, including gold in the team sprint for kadeena cox, jaco van gass and jody cundy. a brilliant performance for the cheer. that was a particularly sweet for kadeena cox after she fell in her individual event. also called for a sophie unwin and turn tandem percent, and james paul and his pilots steffan lloyd in the tandem towel shower. steffan lloyd in the tandem towelshower. in steffan lloyd in the tandem towel shower. in the rowing, there were also three gold medals, the most dramatic of those was in the mixed double sculls, per lauren rose and gregg stevenson were trailing china until the closing stages, but the lead in the last few metres to claim a thrilling win. the third consecutive victory in the event. what a victory in the event. what a victory that was. one will also gold medals in the swimming pool as well. maisie

summers—newton, what an incredible talent she is. she has won a second gold medal of these games in the breaststroke. a superb performance from maisie summers—newton. also called for brock whiston in the individual medley stop in the last half—hour or so, there has been a call for grace harvey in her breaststroke, and that has been a gold for the mixed relay team in the swimming pool. so, 12 gold medals for paralympics gb. it has been hard to keep up with a gold for the mixed relay team in the swimming pool. so, 12 gold medals for paralympics gb. it has been hard to keep up with and good job keeping up with and good job keeping up with all of that.— with all of that. thank you so much. so today is the most successful day ever in terms of gold medals won for paralympicsgb and that is reflected in the medals table — 22 golds overall, putting 23 golds overall, putting the team just behind

china, in second spot. seven gold medals away from china. england have beaten sri lanka by 190 runs on day four of the second test at lords, giving them an unassailable 2—0 lead in the series with one match to go. gus atkinson enjoyed another memorable day, becoming the first england player to score a century and take five wickets in a test since ian botham in 1984. meanwhile, the mcc says it will be reviewing its pricing structure after the majority of the seats at lord's remained unsold. joe wilson reports from lord's. time and space at large. they force you charged at premium prices with no certainty about how much played there would be. well, there was a story to be completed. a stunning feat of sri lankan batting. that

scenario is possible, a83 the victory target. dinesh chandimal played fluently until 50 come experience of sri lankan batter is resisting. drink and set it up for angelo mathews, and he was caught. and he was a riffle. dinesh chandimal next. you can keep gus atkinson out of the game for long. and he soon got rid of the talented commander mendez. 200—7. sri lanka's captain was stopping his shots, and it was still a lovely day for batting and watching. the seats remain the empty but the sun was out, lots of time left in the game, so take the opportunity. 260—7 at sea. atkinson was relentless. the fourth and fifth wickets of the innings. remember, he made 102. the all—rounder or superhuman?

the all—rounder or superhuman? the ball arced above the famous empty seats when the final wicket fell just after five p m. lincoln won by 190 runs, and one toff choice there. the decisive player — route or atkinson? take your pick. —— joe root or atkinson? so after making his maiden hundred in the first innings, gus atkinson becomes only the third england player ever to score a century and take five wickets in a test. i have had a good few games here at large, and i don't know what it is. i enjoy bowling without slope, but the batting i'm really sure. d0 without slope, but the batting i'm really sure.— without slope, but the batting i'm really sure. do we call you a test all-rounder _ i'm really sure. do we call you a test all-rounder now? - i'm really sure. do we call you a test all-rounder now? i - i'm really sure. do we call you | a test all-rounder now? i think so, i a test all-rounder now? i think so. i hone _ a test all-rounder now? i think so. i hone s0- _ a test all-rounder now? i think so, i hope so. yeah, _ a test all-rounder now? i think so, i hope so. yeah, i- a test all-rounder now? i think so, i hope so. yeah, iwill- so, i hope so. yeah, iwill claim it. so, i hope so. yeah, iwill claim it— so, i hope so. yeah, iwill claim it. your partner chris woakes — claim it. your partner chris woakes with _ claim it. your partner chris woakes with the _ claim it. your partner chris woakes with the new - claim it. your partner chris woakes with the new ball. claim it. your partner chris. woakes with the new ball as well. i is it helping you? i well. i is it helping you? i think we bowled really well together. we try and do similar things, we speak to each other well. i think we complement each other really well on all

surfaces. as i said, he is quite a sum of to me, and it is working well so far. —— quite a similar bowler. there was a home win for ferrari at the italian grand prix today, with charles leclerc taking victory. lando norris started on pole but his mclaren team—mate oscar piastri got the better start and overtook him on the opening lap. championship leader max vertappen struggled this weekend starting from seventh and was passed by his closest rival, norris. it was looking like a mclaren one—two for a large part of the race but they had to pit twice due to tyre wear, whereas ferrari played a tactical masterstroke. they risked just pitting once hoping that leclerc�*s tyres would hold on and it paid off with the frenchman winning by 2.6 seconds with piastri in second and norris in third. verstappen could finish only sixth so norris cuts his lead by eight points to 62

with eight races to go. my my god, the emotions in the last few laps, exactly like 2019. just watching the grants i'd which is tricky, but incredible. obviously, iwant to win as many races as possible and the world championship as soon as possible, but these are the two most important races of the season and i managed to win them this year, so it is so special. them this year, so it is so special-— marc marquez has ended a three—year run without a win with victory in his first motogp race since 2021 in spain. the six—time motogp champion's last victory came in emilia—romagna, more than 1000 days ago. the spaniard capitalised on a collision between his brother, alex, and championship hopeful francesco bagnaia on turn 12 in aragon. the crash took both riders out of the race and marquez�*s victory eventually came in comfortable fashion, beating runner—upjorge martin by almost five seconds

with pedro acosta in third. marquez celebrated his win with a victory lap in front of his supporters. this moves him third in the championship standings. time now for some of the day's other sport stories and there was further success for great britain at the mountain bike world championships in andorra as olympic champion tom piddock secured a bronze medal in the men's cross country race. south african alan hatherly took the victory, with france's victor koretzky coming in second. in the women's race, dutch rider puck pieterse claimed her first ever elite title taking home the gold ahead of teammate anne terpstra, who she beat by almost a minute. great britain's evie richards came back from an early crash to claim a sensational sixth place. and at the british masters, overnight leader niklas norgaard survived a wobble on the 15th to claim a maiden dp world tour title posting a level—par 72 on the final day to secure a two—shot victory.

next to the us open tennis, where there was disappointment for britain's dan evans overnight as he lost to the australian 10th seed alex de minaur in four sets. evans fought back to level the match at one set all but ran out of steam, losing the next two 6—0. perhaps not surprising considering he'd played the longest match in us open history in the first round, against karen khachanov. i was a bit sick as well before the match, and then obviously my hip, not a lot went right. that is grand slam tennis, isn't it? you have to recover. but, yes, he was the better player. it is not always about tennis, your body has to be prepared and kudos to him, he played a great match. but the men's british number one jack draper

is through to the fourth round in a side of the draw where novak djokovic and carlos alacaraz have gone out. in muggy conditions in new york, he was cool and clinical against botic van de zandschulp, who beat alcaraz in the last round. draper coming through 6—3, 6—a, 6—2 and he still hasn't dropped a set. next up, he'll play tomas machac for a place in what he hopes will be his first grand slam quarter—final. after a dramatic, foggy day at the vuelta a espana, australia's ben o'connor still holds the leader's red jersey, going into tomorrow's rest day, but primoz roglic cut his lead almost in half on stage 16. o'connor is nowjust a3 seconds ahead, with six stages to go. drew savage reports. when ben o'connor took the video showed the pundits wondered how long he would manage to keep it.— wondered how long he would manage to keep it. nine stages later, it manage to keep it. nine stages later. it was — manage to keep it. nine stages later, it was still _ manage to keep it. nine stages later, it was still not _ manage to keep it. nine stages later, it was still not clear - later, it was still not clear when or if you let go. for primoz roglic, he keeps chipping away at the lead.

stage 15 featured a brutal climb through the austrian mountains, and may be a glimpse of the future through the fog. the 23—year—old climb to his second stage one and a0. you don't for a small spanish team, but there is no rumoured from britain's ineos grenadiers. behind him, but primoz roglic made his latest big move on the final climb, along with enric maas, who is third overall. our corner left to hang on to as much of his 81 second lead as he could come and his ability added to the drama. how much time with the game? o'conner described that latter gradient is horrible and disgusting. but he managed to appear in time to keep the red jersey, although his lead is now down to a3 seconds. st helens are back into the top four of rugby league's super league after an 18—10 victory at huddersfield giants. huddersfield were 10—6 ahead before fenton rodgers was sent off on the stroke of half time,

and saints took full advantage of their extra man, harry robertson's try sealing the win as they then scored 12 unanswered points. it's the giants 16th defeat in 2a games this season. finally tonight, with the paris paralympics in full swing a london boat club has started a new initiative to get more people with a visual impairment into rowing. the scheme at fulham reach got under way with a taster session for teenagers, from where wendy hurrell now reports. besides the spectacle of the world's elite athletes on the paris 202a states, the paralympics is an opportunity of inspired participation at a grassroots level. and that is what has been happening here in hammersmith today. what of the sport for good charity at fulham reach a boat club, young visually impaired people have been having a go at throwing. i liked being on the water. and i

is all for now. good night. hello there! the weekend weather has been pretty decent for most of us. it has been dry, we saw more sunshine on saturday. lots of cloud around today, apart from the south—east which was very warm, humid and sunny. as we head into monday, though, low pressure across the country will spark off more showers and thunderstorms, and with a humid air mass still in place, some of these downpours could be quite intense. you can see that humid air mass pretty much across the whole of the uk, and it will continue to be quite warm, so a muggy night to come again tonight. we'll see showers and thunderstorms through central, northern and eastern areas push their way northwards. there will be some drier weather around, particularly towards the southeast. and again it's going to be warm and muggy across the board — mid—teens for many, the high teens across the southeast. so into monday then, we've got

low pressure across the uk and its weather fronts. we could see showers, thunderstorms through central, northern and eastern parts of england pushing up in towards scotland. as we move into the latter part of the day and sunshine will be limited, so not as warm in the southeast. what we've had today 2a—25 degrees, high teens, low 20s further north where we have more cloud and the showers. those showers and thunderstorms rattle their way northwards and eastwards during monday night, but we could see further showers, maybe some thunderstorms as parts of the midlands, wales and southern england as well, but some clearer skies developing for scotland and northern ireland by the end of monday night. so here, turning a bit cooler, temperatures back into single digits, but another warm and muggy one i think, for large parts of england and wales. now some changes as we head into tuesday. this area of high pressure begins to exert its force from the atlantic. that will try and push these weather fronts out of the way, but we'll have a couple of weather fronts around — this one, draped across scotland and northern ireland could bring some showers and another one in towards the east

and south—east of england. that could also spark off some showers, maybe some heavy thundery ones. in between, maybe some good spells of sunshine around. so quite a mixed day on tuesday and cooler and fresher across the board. we're losing the humidity now with the westerly breeze, 17 to 22 degrees. it does look like that area of high pressure exerts its force across the uk as we move deeper into the new week, but there'll be weather fronts close by to the north and also across the south. this area of low pressure over the near continent could contain further thundery downpours, so generally it will settle down as we move through the week. best of any drier and brighter weather in the north and west. there's still the chance of some heavy showers across southern areas. take care.

live from london. this is bbc news thousands of protesters in jerusalem and tel aviv urge the israeli government to reach a deal with hamas. unions call a general strike to force the issue. this is the scene live in tel aviv where the streets have been filled with demonstrators. the protests follow the recovery of the bodies of six hostages held by hamas in the southern gaza strip. they should have come back alive, they could have come back alive. we need a deal now. exit polls from eastern germany suggest the far—right afd party is on course to win a state election for the first time. and it's a gold rush

for paralympics gb — their most successful single day this century! hello. the israeli trade union federation has ordered a general strike for monday in an effort to force the government to reach a hostage release deal with hamas. the industrial action will see ben gurion airport — the busiest in israel — closed to takeoffs and landings from 8am local time. the families of hostages had pushed for the strike after the israeli army found the bodies of six hostages in a tunnel in rafah. the military said they were killed by hamas shortly before troops arrived.

a hamas official denied this, saying they were killed by israeli fire.
