russians winning four titles to their opponents pretty firm sides captain show me a puppy shiv knows just how important it is to win the trophy bank and he's named the strongest possible scored crucially including peter's one of the all over. number for his first album called i can solve it on mine and russia knows what to expect. just. looking forward to choose the. news he. says this is. just. for. the world equally humbled by the withdrawals of a top to run players world number four francesca schiavone and clubby open in terms

of those two been available it would have been a very tight cotton of favorites but in their absence russia have a clear advantage however this does can draw inspiration from france who are among the string side pushed by much more powerful opponents russia writes of the one in the last round i understand about the match from. france and russia and that. you can have direct and other accidents and you know till next to last and then there is a is this is a team is so strong that it's going to win it three two and that's because because in the russian team and there are a very great players and so this now we know this we know there are sure so two hours is no surely to win and you know that we need three point six on the course it's all. will finish saturday's opening singles against experience

roberta vinci and the russians who are playing at the mega sports arena which only host for countries i'm talking team will be wanting to get two points on the ball on the opening day to avoid what happened in the last round when show me a piece of sign came out of the fifteen in history to come back from two robbers to love down and win richmond party. meanwhile it is semi finals day at the monte carlo masters where the fending champion and top seed rafael nadal would take on world number five andy murray. and our making a last fall with a simple six one six three victory over luke which in the court is the spaniard has been a champion here for the last six years and showed every intention to make it so not really threatened then state that semi with mary. mary also had an easy victory over portugal further rico gill sixty six won the score and that won the brit finding some form on the clay before you arrived he had failed to win a match since his defeat in the australian open final but murray does have his work

at her against. the king of the red. and the other semi is between spain's david fair and the seventh seed. we got a stunning win over roger federer ahead your three breaking the world number three one thousand six hundred sixty six victory against the sixteen time round champ is . also a big day for i saw you live have another chance to win the garden cup for the first time they lead at around three one in the best of seven series and their victory today would crown them keg champions however poor you by their latest four nil win over salad which keep some in the series they were heavily indebted to their goaltender constantine but only they perform miracles between the pipes and that i'm coaching little league says he needs more the same from him it's all about how nice advantage once again where they've one hundred percent record in this series and no one moved when would be enough for the trophy and the championship

title. meanwhile the best you ice hockey players from russia have taken on up and coming star in canada in an exhibition match but it wasn't much of a contest in moscow with the host side called the red stars enjoying a thumping nine to win constantine pathak off watched it. the red stars faced an all star team of the british columbia hockey league and if an opponent where is a maple even his jersey is strong rivalry can be expected no matter what league they're playing in it was. a great opportunities you play international hockey i know the russians like team is a highly highly skilled team and i think it's a real wake up call for a guy standing stand that when it's russia canada you're going to see the best no matter what meanwhile the hose just returned from a tour to pool and with a win and a defeat and the russians produced an electric sword breaking through and dominating throughout the game really know what to expect. i think the spirit game we kind of

got caught off guard. you know it's a talented team and you know they they waited for your team canada seem to be confused and just didn't know what to do on the biggest size ice rink which proved an obstacle for them it's just a lot bigger than the speed of the game is so much higher and there's so much more space it makes a very tough to defend. and obviously the office of plays that we used back i don't i don't work out here so it's going to take a little bit of adjusting but that's what the exhibition games for while the red stars put up a really good effort and flurry of ghouls was just a matter of time in the end the home side thresh their rivals nine to the final score team canada were furious with a devastating defeat and a hard game turned out to be a harsh one with several very painful body checks could spell injuries for the russians. among the years frankly i haven't even heard of this canadian leg but we stayed focused on every moment we should always be very careful with the canadians

and keep the head up as they always plates off and try to several of our guys got serious hits sure from that despite the seven goal cushion the match proved once again that an encounter between russian cannon illness is always a real crack and can say about half of our team. now it is a busy day of football in the russian premier league which again could see a new name at the top of the table rather dark could go towards clear of gold or if they can get it when it clears the top this afternoon another game's good band. of the season as a host group but it's tiring to just one win from four games for an action against an arm a mosque at. united play match the city in the semifinals of the f.a. cup with both sides without their star strikers united boss alex ferguson forced to bring in dimitar berbatov for the suspended wayne rooney defender jonny evans is also missing out because of a band and down section is virus man city hall who without collars tevis was pulled

a hamstring you know i go to them with a chance of a travel place taken you know the same final on sunday. in the premier league today chelsea looking to put their champions league it behind them knocked out by manchester united in a way they are currently eleven points behind the table toppers and travel to west brom the other games all have a variant on who will get relegated sunderland travel to birmingham blackpool wealth and we can let it everything host like the time i asked him villa and second place arsenal are in action against liverpool tomorrow with a chance of closing the gap on united the four points clear of an opportunity to distance from united don't really want of course completely. to leave a political game on monday night. before course it promises to be very exciting to have a good defensive force. as well new for instance so it promises to

be. an interesting game. things are heating up in spain too it's the el classico tonight between reality and read the lone and real courage jody marino has added spice to get by refusing to say anything at a press conference basso could go eleven points clear with six games left with a victory but raina refused to speak to the media ahead of the game and that prompted journalist to walk out of the press conference in protest instead the sister here i think i think has spoken and said really i did not want his words blown out of proportion and tonight's game is the first of three meetings between the club's first of the russian class and also playing the spanish cup final and in the champions league semifinal. and finally to golfer who shot to fame after shooting a sixteen at a single hole has bounced back and even laughed about his nightmare at the texas open american kevin our return to the course the his second round with a point to prove following his calamitous score of sixteen on

a night the day before he managed to get on friday finishing with a round of seventy seven twelve straight better than his previous round and it wasn't a bad score either as the wins made everyone struggle there's a certain way tie for the lead and yes both will be here is the monkey at three under. so that brings us up to date with the sport i've got more later next that it's the right thing. for the field we've got. the biggest issues get the cuban voice face to face with the news makers.
