vardy scored again. the leicester of old were back. twists at leicester, maybe getting rid of the main protagonist wasn't such a tragedy after all. we have been trying, it has not been clicking. we have had to try and make our own luck and it has not been happening, but luckily it has all clicked together. there has been a lot of unfair stuff written lately and you have seen a reaction from everyone. it wasn't just me personally, it was most of the squad. it has got us fired up in a way to put a reaction on the pitch, which we have done. yes, bad start, bad in the middle and bad at the end, if you want. we had a few little bit better than average moments, but most of the situations we re moments, but most of the situations were absolutely not even average. not physical enough in this game. it did not make it easier for us that they've changed the manager. it was an emotional game. you can't be surprised. not a great night for jurgen klopp. a better night for jamie vardy and craig shakespeare, the caretaker manager. this will not have d

because jamie vardy, danny drinkwater, they have shown changes.also three games played in the europa league on wednesday. manchester united are through to the last 16 after beating saint—etienne. henrik mkhitaryan scored the only goal of the second leg — as united won 4—0 on aggregate. krasnodar and schalke are also through — while united's victory means they've lost only once in their last 25 matches in all competitions. cue a happy manager. we are not unbeatable but the record is really, really good. it's nice to be, forfour months, to have only one little defeat and defeat where we could have that defeat because it was a two legs match so it's nice, it's a good feeling. we trust in each other and one day, we are going to lose but the important thing is after that defeat, we go back again toa after that defeat, we go back again to a good run. playing in a solid way. in spain, real madrid missed the chance to extend their lead at the top of the table when they sufferered a shock 2—1 defeat at valencia. the result means that real remain one point

this isa an away goal from jamie vardy.e i ceste r‘s don't exist in football. forget leicester's premier league title. the harsh reality is that in the premier league and the spectre of relegation comes to bite. they are just one place away from the relegation zone and the worst record of any of the 92 premier league clu bs of any of the 92 premier league clubs in england this season. it's harsh and you have to remember that for claudio ranieri, he stayed loyal to leicester when he had a chance to manage his national team, italy. he stayed loyal but it hasn't worked out for them in the follow—up season after the honeymoon. so, mike, you we re after the honeymoon. so, mike, you were saying that life is brittle. who is in light replacing? of course, the difficult thing is that they cannot sign any new players because the transfer window is gone. maybe another italian, the former manchester city manager, he took city to the title but was then sacked as they went to the fa cup title. would she have the same relationship with th

castres michaels spoke to the press today and jamie vardy has put this on instagram.ng the defeat in the champions league this week. a heartfelt response from jamie vardy, touching on the part the players played in his departure. i guess all eyes will turn now to that match on monday. they face liverpool in the relegation zone. they can still win the champions league, what a story that would be! they did it last season, who knows what they could achieve this season! let's bring you up to date with other football results. celtic have maintained their 24—point lead at the top of the scottish premiership with a 2—0 win over hamilton. moussa dembele scored both goals to give the hoops their 21st league win in a row. aberdeen moved nine points clear in the race for second place with a 1—0 win over ross county — adam rooney with the goal. dundee won 5—1 away at motherwell. partick thistle beat a ten—man hearts side 2—0 at firhill. and kilmarnock got their first away win since october — 2—0 at stjohnstone. brighton have gone two points clear at the top of the championship th

let's listen to what jamie vardy made of that result.itten about everybody, not just me. stuff had been written about everybody, notjust me. it got us fired up in a good way to put a reaction on the pitch, which we have done. what reaction to that win? plenty. the eyes of the footballing world would have been on that to see how leicester reacted following the removal of claudio ranieri. chris sutton is talking about craig sheuks sphere. this one, leicester players certainly proving a point. that's matt dickinson writing in the times, whether it is a point about them or ranieri will be much debated. plenty of debate in the papers this morning. this is richard osman saying, "i'm putting some money on leicester winning the title. mathematically they can't win the title this year." john cross writing in the mirror should leicester players be celebrating or hanging their heads in shame? the question over the team about whether they downed tools to get ranieri sacked? it is the controversy surrounding that match and that result. 3—1 against li

jamie vardy scored twice, with danny drinkwater also on target, as they snapped a run of five straighteats. the club's thai owners were in the stands to watch as caretaker boss craig shakespeare, who had told his players to emulate their great escape from 2015. that was a year before they became premier league champions, but everything has gone downhill for leicester since then. tonight, the foxes were smiling again. we have been trying, it'sjust we have been trying, it's just not been clicking. things have not been falling for us as they did last year and we have had to try and make our own luck and it has just not been happening. but luckily tonight it all has an dittert has all come together. i think there has been a lot of unfair stuff reason and i think you have seen a reaction from everyone, it wasn't just about me personally but most of the squad and like i said it has definitely got us fired up in a good way to put a reaction on the pitch, which we have done. yes. bad start, bad in the middle, and bad at the end, if you want. yes, we had a few... a little bit better than averag

jamie vardy said after the game that shakespeare had consulted the players on how to play.ike the nigel pearson your add lustre, a regime very popular with the players. and i think craig shakespeare has a lot going for him. a huge game on saturday against hull city. he is taking the pre—match press conference on friday which suggests he will be taking charge of that game as well and if he does well he would be a massive favourite. after that it would be a massive favourite. after thatitis would be a massive favourite. after that it is a ten day break before their next match in the champions league and i guess that is when the owners could make a decision. but the owners will surely want to have a look around. are there any other names mentioned in connection with thejob? 0ther names mentioned in connection with the job? other names names mentioned in connection with thejob? other names include guus hiddink, interim manager last season at chelsea. nigel pearson has been mentioned as possibly returning. we're told the players loved it when he was manager, many of them still t

jamie vardy got two. drinkwater has also scored.e pulled one back, but as you can imagine, hard to explain how this has happened. leicester looked doomed. they were in the relegation zone following crystal palace's win over the weekend. they chose to get rid of claudio ranieri, but they are producing a wonderful performance tonight and they look like the leicester city of old. one question you have to ask is who will replace him? a lot of names have been linked with thejob. him? a lot of names have been linked with the job. roberta him? a lot of names have been linked with thejob. roberta mancini is one of those. —— roberto mancini. he has distanced himself from the job though. guus hiddink is also in the frame to come in as the new manager. craig shakespeare is in the hot seat at the moment following ranieri ‘s departure. work leicester to beat liverpool and hull, you wonder perhaps whether or not he might get thejob full—time. perhaps whether or not he might get the job full-time. thank you. if you watch the programme regularly yo

jamie vardy has gone closest so far. a couple of good efforts. uefa say britain may find it harder to host showpiece matches when the united kingdom leaves the european union. uefa president alexsander seferin says if brexit goes ahead, then they may need to look elsewhere when it comes to finding venues for games like the champions league final. if it is a problem for players and fa ns to if it is a problem for players and fans to come to the uk while players and fans from the uk can travel out into europe and beyond, he thinks there may be issues of bringing european showcase finals to british shores. of course the euro twenty20 semifinals and final will be played at wembley. there is no question of taking those away. they are firm but beyond that, he certainly has a nigh on the implications of brexit for the european game —— and i. huddersfield town boss david wagner has been given a two—match touchline ban and a £6,000 fine after his altercation with leeds counterpart garry monk. wagner sprinted down the touchline to join his players in celeb

tonight leicester strikerjamie vardy released a response to suggestions the players were responsiblehis chelsea are 11 points clear at the top of the premier league tonight after beating swansea 3—1 at stamford bridge. cesc fabregas scored first, fernando llorente level, but two late goals — from pedro and then diego costa sealed the win for chelsea. we showed great character to start the second half and create chances we had. fabregas scored across the barand we had. fabregas scored across the bar and then be scored. we deserved a lot to win the game. now it is important to continue in this way. winning over 29 points to be champions. it is important to know this, for me, my players and fans. to continue with the great focus and concentration. it is looking unlikely anybody will stop chelsea. crystal palace beat middlesbrough1—0. they are out of the bottom three after the win over middlesbrough. patrick van aanholt with the goal. it isa it is a great victory and hopefully we can move on from there. i think the two—week break had a big influence on players because we could get a lot

vardy, go back to the goal, reopen the match in the second leg, and that is important.clubs. the chinese transfer window closes next tuesday. a summer move still seems the likelier outcome however. united coped 0k without rooney in the europa league last night, henrikh miktaryan‘s goal gave them a 1—0 win at french side saint etienne. they won 4—0 on aggregate. united have now lost only once in 25 games. it‘s nice. it‘s a good feeling. we trust in each other and, you know, one day we are going to lose. the important thing is after that defeat we go back again to a good run because the team is playing in a solid way. tottenham host gent in front of a sell—out wembley crowd scottish cup holders hibernian knocked out their edinburgh rivals hearts in their fifth round replay at easter road, just as they did last season. hibs won 3—1 and championship side ayr united will provide their opposition in the next round. jonathanjoseph has been left out of the england squad preparing to face italy in the 6 nations on sunday. the bath centre has played in all 15 matches under eddie

earlier this evening, the leicester striker, jamie vardy, released a response to suggestions the playersd this. claudio has, and always will have, my complete respect! what we achieved together and as a team was the impossible! he believed in me when many didn't and for that i owe him my eternal gratitude. there is speculation i was involved in his dismissal and this is completely untrue, unfounded, and is extremely hurtful! the only thing we are guilty of as a team is underachieving which we all acknowledge both in the dressing room and publicly and will do our best to rectify. that's all the sport for now. back to you. thank you. three men have appeared in court on slavery charges after the discovery of a cannabis factory at a disused nuclear bunker in wiltshire. a police raid found cannabis worth around a million. andrew plant reports. police raided the bunker on wednesday night, acting, they said, on a tip—off. inside they found 20 large rooms kitted out with equipment to help grow cannabis and places for people to sleep. today in court, three men appeared charged with conspiracy to

even jamie vardy scored! and then he was gone the next day.re's no room for sentiment in football — the harsh reality is that in 2017 leicester have the worst record of any of the 92 football league clubs. no goals scored, and they've fallen tojust one place and one point above the relegation zone, and so the miracle man, claudio ranieri, has paid the ultimate price with hisjob. as for who takes over, fellow italian and former man city boss roberto mancini is an early front runner. elsewhere, tottenham's wembley woes struck again as they went out of the europa league to gent — they'd had england star dele alli sent off by the time the belgian side made it 2—all on the night to seal their place in the last 16. 3—2 on aggregate. flankerjon barclay will captain the scotland side to face wales in the six nations at murrayfield tomorrow. barclay, who plays his rugby in wales, will lead the team in the absence of the injured greig laidlaw. nice car! world champion constructors mercedes have unveiled their new car for the upcoming formula one season.

yes, leicester ended up winning 3—1, including two goals forjamie vardy.

jamie vardy took to social media to pay tribute to former manager claudio ranieri. said, claudio ranieri has and always will have my complete respect. he believed in me when many didn't and for that i owe him my eternal gratitude. there is speculation i was involved in his dismissal. this reference to a discussion the players were supposed to have had with the chairman. he said it was untrue and extremely hurtful. he said the only thing they are guilty of as said the only thing they are guilty ofasa said the only thing they are guilty of as a team is underachieving and they will do their best to rectify that. leicester are now in the relegation zone and claudio ranieri made a return to say goodbye to the players today. an emotional farewell at the training ground. that is the sport. malaysian police have been searching the airport in kuala lumpur for traces of the deadly nerve agent that killed the half brother of the north korean leader. kim jong—nam died at the airport 12 days ago after he was accosted by two women. officers from the police's chemical, biological

when your top players like vardy, mahrez and drinkwater are not performing like last season there isave put them there. claudio bravo helped everybody reach their gene and he has paid the penalty. it is wrong. with the team still in the champions league, is the timing wrong? yes. i was over in spain, 3000 fans were totally behind the manager, chanting his name all night. they were all shocked. getting the away goal. 2—1 at half—time, every chance of progressing. we need a manager in very quickly, i feel. progressing. we need a manager in very quickly, ifeel. 0ne progressing. we need a manager in very quickly, i feel. one that has got european experience. it is a big ask and they have to get it right. to be fairto ask and they have to get it right. to be fair to the owners, they got it right time so far. i hope their luck holds an egg at this time. when they have done this at this time, it's a mystery to all the leicester city fans. playing liverpool at home next, i think the fans will voice their discover and let them know that they were fully behind the manager. “— that they were fu

jamie vardy scored a goal to reopen the match in the second leg. that is important.e have a very big heart. a blow for arsenal this morning with the news that midfielder santi cazorla is out for the season as he recovers from ankle surgery. the spain international has been out of action since october and has undergone an operation and it was expected that his recovery would take around three months. but arsenal now believe the 32—year—old will need longer on the sidelines and expect him not to feature again this season. and there could be another big big fight on the way for boxing fans as a deal is being negotiated for manny pacquiao to take on britain's own amir khan. pacquaio's twitter followers recently voted khan as the opponent they would like to see him fight next. khan hasn't boxed since a defeat the saul alvarez last may and was eyeing a fight with fellow briton kell brook but it seems former six weight world champion pacquaio at the age of 38 is the next test, with both men confirming on social media negotiations are underway. and that is all the sport for

danny drinkwater scored the pick of the goals while jamie vardy — much criticised for his form this seasonhas been a lot of u nfa ir stuff i think there has been a lot of unfair stuff written lately and i think you have seen a reaction from everyone. it was not about me personally was about most of the squad and like they say it has gotten us fired up in a good way to put a reaction on the pitch which we have done. a reaction on the pitch which we have done. it is not the first time that a team has changed management. an especially after what everybody said about the league and the responsibility of the players, a display what had to happen. but you could have done much better and that is the only thing. it is not leicester from last year. we let them be leicester from last year and thatis them be leicester from last year and that is our fault. world rugby say it's "too early to speculate" whether there will be a rule change after italy's unusual tactics in their six nations defeat to england on sunday. it caused confusion for some england players during the game after italy chose not to c

winning game after game with this style which everyone knew they would throw the ball forward to jamie vardythe premier league title. they have changed their style and they are struggling in the premier league. they are just one point above the relegation zone and they haven't won a game in 2017 and haven't scored a goal this year either, but again, the contrast that they've cruised through their champions league group, no one expected them to do that. really struggling in the premier league. can the champions be in a position where they're going to go down to the championship. ranieri doing his best to insist that there is nothing majorly wrong at the club. there is no crisis. of course, when you don't win you lack a little confidence, it's normal. it's normal. but fortunately, these players are warriors because they are used to fight because they already had this situation. leicester are in this extraordinary situation where they are trying to avoid relegation. they had the premier league title in their own hands as ranieri kept saying last season, but the good thing for them is they have

coming up from the bbc sport centre: jamie vardy keeps leicester's dream alive.land dropjohnathan joseph for their six nations clash with italy. good evening. jamie vardy scored a crucial away goal to keep leicester city's hopes in the quarter—finals allowed. there defeat to severe in spain gives them a chance. more broadly, this goal might kickstart le i ceste r‘s broadly, this goal might kickstart leicester's season with the champions struggling in the premier league. patrick reports. m needed - ieces, ' needed esca-e. ieces, ' leicester neededescapfi somewhere—l they could rediscover their past. wes morgan was so reliable last season. wes morgan was so reliable last season. leicester's last resort was a good one. michael kept this out. that was a rare touch from leicester on the ball. sevilla's goal was inevitable. there was no safe passage away from the rocks. sevilla are chasing real madrid and barcelona in the league and outpaced them. 2—0. the frustrations showed. just as it seemed it would all fall apart, a flashback of an attack.

and that is vardy's goal in an 11th consecutive league match! what an achievement forjamie vardy!dinary stories of all time. it‘s in! now leicester are bound for the premier league title! when hazard scored that absolute worldy into the top, i went mental. i can't believe it. i bet you can't believe it. i suspect they can't believe that. you‘re a grown man, you‘ve got tears in your eyes. we never dreamed of it. the impossible dream is now a reality. are you saying to me, "have they been the best team in this league?" without a shadow of a doubt. they have blown apart the established order of the premier league. have you shed a tear tonight? 0h, absolutely. absolutely. it's the biggest ever sporting achievement in britain, i honestly believe that. 2016, in the premier league, it's the year of the fox! the most improbable result meant that match of the day host and leicesterfan had a keep a promise to host episode of the new season in his pants, if his side won the premier league. this morning a very sombre gary lineker gave his reaction to the sacking of claudio ranieri. well, it‘s

and they have some fight, it was like watching leicester city last season, and jamie vardy scored. domestic results, which is interesting because there is no mention of the champions league results, domestic results in the current campaign have placed the premier league status of the club under threat and the board relu cta ntly under threat and the board reluctantly feels that a change of leadership, one admittedly painful, is necessary in the club's greatest interest. —— while admittedly painful. they are one place above the relegation zone. this will hurt so the relegation zone. this will hurt so much, so much for the fans, still riding on that crest of a wave and euphoria of last season. because it was so euphoria of last season. because it was so unbelievable. it was only nine months ago they were in dreamland. and for this dream to end now, it'll be hard for the fans to take, but what about the players? they have not scored in the premier league this year. there is the statistic. no away wins in the premier league in the season so far. contrast that to last season where they
