for the second week in a row — they won 5—0 at the etihad.shing, as pressure mounts on their manager. jess softley reports. five goals from four different players. who says manchester city need a striker? they didn't waste any time today. lk i going to one made it look too easy, putting the city ahead after just six minutes. poor defending left arsenal wide open as an unmarked ferran torres had them 2—0 up with just 11 minutes on the clock. there are two ways to deal with pressure. he wasn't the only one who saw red as the referee sent him straight to the dressing room. left with ten men, the gunners were flustered. gabriella jesus helps himself. and it was about to get much worse. this was now about damage control. tell that to rodri. a superb finish to bag city's fourth. just when you think they've had enough, torres was there once again. another 5—star performance from city. arsenal are yet to score a single goal this season as the pressure builds on the manager. there's a that has happened in the last few weeks. we are any challenging dec

this, the etihad stadium, will be his new home.s he still loves the club foot hopes fans can understand he has left to pursue a new challenge. posted by manchester city, a video showing off their new number ten — jack grealish, the most expensive british footballer ever. the 25—year—old is well known for wearing his socks low, but his stock is high. he signed a six—year dealfor a transferfee estimated to be £100 million. grealish. .. 0h, a lovely—looking ball. he's put it into the back of the net! a standout player for england at euro 2020, he also led aston villa to a credible 11th place finish in the premier league last season. so, it's been no surprise that one of the so—called bigger clubs came knocking. i think they're getting one of the most exciting players in the premier league at this moment in time. he's somebody where you can see he's got huge potential, but he's also got a great level of talent right now. you know, he's been the main guy for aston villa the past couple of seasons at least, and he's somebody as i say who

city are out of the blocks as jack grealish gets his goal with a thunping win over norwich at the etihades down to the two games that really matter. the finals of cricket's newest tournament — the hundred. both the men's and women's taking place at lords today — for the latter— an historic day — the first ever domestic women's final at this famous ground. it was southern brave vs oval invincibles — did fortune favour the brave or were the invincibles unstoppable? stuart pollitt reports. going out with a bang. lord's hadn't seen anything like this before.notjust the music and the fireworks. but — after two centuries — the hundred became the first female domestic final held at the home of cricket. the oval invincibles were put in to bat by favourites southern brave who dominated the group stage. dane van niekerk soon found her range —she top scored with 26. marizanne kapp matched van niekerk�*s score — her late blows lifted the invincibles to i2i—6.dani wyatt came out arms whirring to begin the chase. but the invincibles had kapp in hand. wyatt soon walking back — out for a duck.

yes, in tokyo, but also an avalanche of goals at the etihad.t the etihad this afternoon. they thrashed arsenal in another totally dominant premier league performance. 5—0 it finished, and they got off the mark quickly. captain ilkay gundogan with the header to get city on their way. more poor defending allowed them to go two up inside the first quarter of an hour. gabrieljesus made it three before half time, after arsenal were reduced to ten men, when granit xhaka was sent off. ferran torres got his second of the match, and city's fifth in the latter stages. city go top, ten goal in the their last two games. but it's three losses in a row for arsenal, who are now bottom of the table. i was really concerned because mentally it is a tough one to take. you're going to play 60 minutes against the best team in the league with ten players and you can't go down and you will start to see body language, attitude with each other. then i would worry a lot. i didn't see that. i must say thank you to the 3000 fans who came here today because they were terri

and it's a demolitionjob at the etihad, as manchester city score five past arsenal.velled their test series against india. and they did it with a huge win at headingley by an innings and 76 runs. eight wickets in the morning session meant it was all done by lunchtime and they go into the fourth test next week all square. adam wild has this report. in leeds, they came ready for a carnival. what they got, in fact, was a procession. cricket history tells us to expect the unexpected at headingley. england here springing the surprises. cheteshwar pujara didn't seem to see that coming. indeed, even the umpire thought it was missing. a review, though, suggested otherwise. 0llie robinson and england up and running. pujara gone for 91, but the big prize was that of virat kohli. he had passed 50 but couldn't get pastjoe root. 0llie robinson wreaking havoc. this wasjimmy anderson undoing ajinkya rahane. moeen ali offering a quick break from the quick bowling was no less deadly. but the morning belonged to robinson. another perfectly judged another perfectlyjudged delivery. this

nesta mcgregor is at the etihad for us. nesta, what was the reception like for grealish? welcome. literally the fans are given and are beginning to disperse. several hundred here considering to do before he was supposed to come out, there was torrential rain. but as i say, a chance for city fans to get up say, a chance for city fans to get up close and personal to the british record transfer. as close as covid—19 would allow them because jack grealish is in the players bubble. he had to stay two metres away from fans but he still did sign away from fans but he still did sign a few footballs and a few cards and post for a few cell fees as well. and just before jack came out he gave a press conference and he also spoke about how he was here to win trophies. that you leave this champions league. city think by signing this blare it with a can do that. a bit of commotion behind me as a vicki has been spoken in the sauna again. he spoke about his love for kevin to run and how pep guardiola was the greatest manager in the world. we also learned his favourite colour is blue. not
