so city remain six points behind leaders liverpool, manager pep guardiola playing mind games after the match ahead of that clash with liverpool next weekend. it happened many times, liverpool has done it in past years. sometimes it is diving, sometimes scoring an incredible goals in the last minute. he isa incredible goals in the last minute. he is a talent. rory mcilroy has won the world golf championship in shanghai after a play—off. mcilroy beat the defending champion xander schauffele after the pair were tied at 19 under par after four rounds. in the first play—off hole mcilroy‘s birdie was enough to secure his fourth title of the year after the american could only make par. i played very patient golf, notjust today but over the weekend. i was bogey free over the weekend, which was nice to do. if someone had told me that on friday night, i wouldn‘t have thought i would have needed a play—off to win. zander played great and it was a great final round to be and it was a great final round to be a part off. —— a part of. there was play off drama too in the latest women‘

last weekend, pep guardiola... last weekend, city manager pep guardiola accused sadia manet of being a diver. early in the second half, the striker gave his emphatic reply. his revenge served cold, liverpool on fire. but ccity managed to douse it thanks to bernardo silva, and for the first time in the match, anxiety crept in as city tried to fight back. it was a nervy ending after such a positive start. but it is still looking like the gap between these two will take a lot to close. nick parrott, bbc news. the intensity of the game was incredible. it was pretty wild. for us, not too unusual for the games to get wild. city, and enjoys the teamwork... they were good. we had to defend with all we have. and that is called incredible. so confirmation of that important win for liverpool. in the day's other games — wolves are back in the top half of the table — after their 2—1 win over west midlands rivals aston villa. and manchester united moved up to seventh, with a 3—1victory, over brighton at old trafford. exc

i know you spent some time with pep guardiola a few years back. do you look at the teams that are doing well? you're lucky being in england because there are so many good coaches. best coaches in the world in the english premier league. as much as i can, i go and visit them when there is an opportunity. if not, i study them by their interviews, pre—match and post—match. i have been lucky to meet alex ferguson and arsene wenger, the two icons of british soccer. i've been able to speak to them about their experience. i go to other sports. danny carey in hockey isa other sports. danny carey in hockey is a brilliant coach. so there are so many other opportunities to keep learning. you're clearing your book that you will be with england for another two years and honour your contract. is it slightly odd that it is halfway through a world cup cycle ? is halfway through a world cup cycle? warren gatland, joe smit, steve hansen, that's it, end of a four—year cycle standing down. i'm just wondering, will that be a little uncertain for england players

last weekend, city manager pep guardiola accused sadia manet of being a diver. early in the second half, the striker gave his emphatic reply. his revenge served cold, liverpool on fire. but city managed to douse it thanks to silva and for the first time in the match, anxiety crept in as a city tried to fight back. it was a nervy ending after such a positive start. but it is still love looking like the gap between these two will take a lot to close. intensity of the game was incredible not too unusual for us that it was wild. they were good, and we had to defend with all we had and scored incredible goals. in the earlier kick offs manchester united gained a valuable three points with a 3—1 win over brighton. andreas perriera and davy propper‘s own goal put ole gunnar solskjaer‘s side two up by half time. lewis dunk pulled one back for brighton... but united hit back straight away, marcus rashford restoring their two goal advantage. the victory moves them up to 7th, just one point behind arsenal in 6th. wolves have moved into the top half of the table for th

pep guardiola knew it, the video assistant was involved. the easy bit should have been this for gabrieljesus. they'd regret that miss. a rare moment of quality from the italians pulled them back into the match. city had to play with ten men for the last ten minutes claudio bravo sent off. kyle walker, the stand—in keeper, stood firm. city should still reach the last 16, but not tonight. away matches in belgrade have always been intimidating. tottenham's task was to block out the noise and try and rediscover the form that saw them beat red star 5—0 last month. they did that and also reproduced something that wouldn't look out of place in a school playground — the first start for spurs capped with a first goal. son heung—min was distraught a few days ago — he was responsible for an everton player breaking an ankle. the korean's muted celebration for both his goals reflected that. olly foster, bbc news. that's it. now on bbc one, it's time for the news where you are. have a very good night. hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm sarah m

pep guardiola might not have been happy with the match officials and the video assistant referee in their defeat to liverpool at the weekend but the man who is in charge of var in the premier league has given it a mark of seven out of 10 since it was introduced this season. despite debates about crowd experience, the time taken on decisions and its actual accuracy — neil swarbrick says he's satisfied with how it's gone 3 months in. we've been at this been at this we've been out this nearly coming up three years now, we officiated 70 games in the fa cup for the last two seasons, trying to get experience. is nothing like doing ten premier league games over the weekend, we realise that so we know we are going to be scrutinised, we know there are people who are going to look at our every move but i am comfortable where we are and no doubt there is room for improvement, speed wise, at cetera, we will get there but for me, been a work in progress. 0nto the para athletics world championships next where 0mara durand won the 10th gold medal in ten years in the t12100 metres. her last defeat was

guardiola admits he's not sure if they can catch liverpool. it's after the european champions beat city 3—1 at anfield to extend their lead at the top of the premier league to eight points. as you might expect in a meeting of the two forces in english football over the last couple of years, it was a game full of talking points. fabinho gave liverpool an early lead, but only after trent alexander arnold was adjudged not to have handled the ball in his own area. it incensed guardiola and many of the city players, whose mood wasn't helped by mo salah and sadio mane making it 3 for liverpool before a late bernardo silva consolation. the intensity of the game was incredible. really wild. not too unusualfor us, i incredible. really wild. not too unusual for us, i think. incredible. really wild. not too unusualfor us, ithink. city usually controls the game more. it was not possible against us today, but they were good. they were good, and we had to defend with all we had. that squad, incredible goals. i think we played 90 minutes. there we re i thi

sergio aguero is out for a number of weeks with a thigh injury and pep guardiola says he'll need a miracle to play in the manchester derby on the 7th december. jose mourinho says he won't be reuinting with zlatan ibrahimovic for a third time. the striker, who was with the new spurs boss at both inter milan and manchester united, is a free agent after leaving la galaxy in mls. but mourinho sez he has the best striker in england — harry kane — already at the club. and real madrid manager zinedine zidane wants the club's fans to stop booing gareth bale. he got a mixed reception as he came on as a substitute in a 3—1 win over real sociedad. it was his first real appearance in seven weeks. now, with a month to go until christmas, welcome to the premier league's sacking season. mauricio pochettino's already lost his job at tottenham while everton‘s marco silva and west ham's manuel pellegrini are both thought to be under pressure. there's also attention on arsenal's unai emery, after his side's 2—2 draw with southampton left them eighth in the premier league. a group of fans have relea

guardiola by and he had 3 great seasons here and then it was over is it time to finally get over it look i'm a nothing 1st found some i know what about clubs grin on for former glories brian kroft is there are gored in the red part of north him so it's understandable clarke is so rich. visionary reenergized that crap brought back their former glories but actually father himself has said he's a tough act to follow if we look at the numbers though surprisingly and this might surprise a lot of people actually father has a better record than clumped we can see it here you know corpus had $380.00 games in charge 57 percent was his win percentage father ok and the $64.00 games had that awful and brain enjoyment but 61 percent say so when percentage i think the problem for far is it's actually been the manner of those defeats amana those draws where they just haven't convinced and the way the players have been so i can only look they just looked shaky against low opposition as you mentioned previously and clucked really never had that kind of money that father has been able to spend this s

pep guardiola was very animated at fulltime following city's defeat at anfield. two penalty appeals were turned down — but he won't face any action from the fa for that — he insisted there was no sarcasm as he thanked the officials. swarbrick said he can understand the frustration that the system causes, but they are getting more decisions right. we have been at this nearly three years now, and obviously we have officiated 70 games in the league cup, fa cup, for the last two seasons, trying to get experience, but that is nothing like doing 10 premier league games every weekend, we realise that, and we know we will be scrutinised and there will be people looking at our every move, but the position i'm in, i'm comfortable with where we are. i've no doubt there is room for improvement, in terms of speed we will get there, but it has been a good work in progress for me. let's have a look at some of today's other football stories. neil warnock has left cardiff city by mutual agreement. he took over three years ago, and led them to promotion to the premier league i

pep guardiola made it pretty clear what he thought of the decisions on the day. he was more restrained in his post match interviews. but var has been a taking point since the start of the season when it was brought in. now neil swarbrick is head of implementation for var in the premier league, he told us that it could take 2 or 3 years before they are completely happy with how the system is used. we have been at this for nearly three years now, and obviously we have officiated 70 games in the league cup, fa cup, and for the last two seasons trying to get experience, but that is nothing like the premier league games over the weekend, we realised that, and we know we will be scrutinised and there will be people looking at our every move , there will be people looking at our every move, but the position i'm in command comfortable with where we are. i've no doubt there is room for improvement, in terms of speed, we will get there, but it has been a good work in progress for me. the leeds united captain liam cooper has been forced to withdraw from the scotland squad f

striker sergio aguero is going to be out for a few weeks, that's according to manager pep guardiola, who's been speaking today ahead of their champions league game against shakhtar donetsk tomorrow night. he picked up a thigh strain in their win over chelsea at the weekend. guardiola says aguero will "need a miracle" to be fit for the manchester derby on 7 december. jose mourinho's also been talking today. he takes charge of spurs in the champions league for the first time since taking over from mauricio pochettino last wednesday. he was asked if he would sign zlatan ibrahimovic for spurs given that he's out of contract and they've worked together before. he says that would make no sense because he has the "best striker in england" in harry kane. kane himself has tipped mourinho to bring silverware to spurs. 0ne game in the premier league tonight as aston villa host newcastle and it's a match that means a lot to this man — steve bruce. he's now in charge of newcastle, but it wasn't that long ago that he was in charge of villa, leading them to the championship play—off final in 20

pep guardiola will not be sanctioned by the fa for those animated, some might say sarcastic thank youse to the officials on the pitch yesterday. let's have a quick look a few other of the day's football stories. neil warnock has left his job as manager of cardiff city by mutual agreement with the club. he took over three years ago and led them to promotion to the premier league in 2018, but they went straight back down again last season and they're currently 14th in the championship. liam cooper has been forced to withdraw from the scotland squad for their upcoming euro 2020 qualifiers. the leeds united captain suffered a muscle tear in his groin, during leeds' win over blackburn on saturday. ellen white is one of four players who will be missing from the england squad for tomorrow's friendly against the czech republic. she scored in their defeat to germany on saturday — her first international match since her return from a knee injury. we're into the last week of the tennis year. the eight best men in the world are in london at the atp tour finals. it's day two at the o2 arena. sue b

victory tonight would guarantee pep guardiola's side safe passage into the last 16 with two group games still the play. i'm not thinking to win games. i'm thinking for better competition, i go game by game, try to win tomorrow. for the fact to be already there, along the year that will be incredible. but not shocked at all... we will see. tottenham's league champions campaign start up early with a goal against libya arcos and a humbling loss to buyer munich. they beat them 5—0 by some, some of the chat in the build—up in serbia has been undressing. some fa ns serbia has been undressing. some fans have —— red starfans serbia has been undressing. some fans have —— red star fans have serbia has been undressing. some fans have —— red starfans have been banned from tottenham games. harry kane necessity sa's press, stop it but hopefully it doesn't happen and we play a football match that michael mack we focus on that to try to get the win and put herself in a great position... if there is a protocol in place as there wasn't sophia, and as players we follow that. —— as ther

he's one of those people who has learned most under pep guardiola and he understands that. the fact he can stay is massively important. probably more so that these fans get the guy that they know. he has the biggest and best years of his career ahead of him. great news if he does manage to sign it eventually. it was only a year since he signed his last contract but i feel that he has improved dramatically in the last year. therefore, there are one or two bigger clues to be warded off? each time he gets there, you think it will slope off but it never seems to. do it now! as soon you can. if you leave it a year, it could be problematic. we will have the commentary, city need one point to get through to the knockout stage. staying with football, and the chairman of rangers — dave king — is to step down at the end of the season. he's been in the role forfour and a half years, and was one of the leading figures in the take over of the club in 2015. our sports news correspondent is chris mclaughlin. well, a miserable day here on the south side of glasgow. but a momentous day

pep guardiola was very animated at fulltime following manchester city's defeat at liverpoool. two penalty appeals were turned down, but he won't face any action from the fa for this at fulltime. he insisted there was no sarcasm as he said "thank you so much" to the officials. swarbrick told me that he can understand the frustartion that the system causes but they are getting more decisions right. we have been at this nearly three years now, and obviously we have officiated 70 games in the league cup, fa cup, for the last two seasons, trying to get experience, but that is nothing like doing 10 premier league games every weekend, we realise that, and we know we will be scrutinised and there will be people looking at our every move, but the position i'm in, i'm comfortable with where we are. i've no doubt there is room for improvement, in terms of speed we will get there, but it has been a good work in progress for me. and you can hear much more of my interview with swarbrick on sportsday at 6.30pm. neil warnock has left cardiff city by mutual agreement. he took over three years

guardiola for a moment. they're both known for their attacking football but in reality their approach is focussed just as much on defense let's start with his man city side have torn up defenses all over england in the last couple of years but while they've broken records for the number of goals they scored they've also been phenomenal in defense but if you talk about it it's always about the whole good play our football playing well but they are brilliant organist they had the best defense in the league we want to go no one his 1st title in england and last season they conceded just 23 goals full year the near perfect record in both attack and defense is partly down to what the owners it's called brilliant city keep the ball better than pretty much every other team combined with the talent of their expensive lee assembled squad that means they create more opportunities than the rest but it also means they seriously limit the number of chances their opponents have to score against them the old advantage that

pep guardiola was very animated at fulltime, two penalty appeals were turned down but he won't face any action from the fa. he insisted there was no sarcasm as he thanked the officials. the man in charge of var's implementation in the premier league, former referee neil swarbrick, told us today that he understands the frustration it's causing — but it could be 2 or 3 years until they‘ re completely happy with how it's being used. we've been out this nearly coming up three years now, we officiated 70 games in the fa cup for the last two seasons, trying to get experience. is nothing like doing ten premier league games over the weekend, we realise that so we know we are going to be scrutinised, we know there are people who are going to look at our every m ove people who are going to look at our every move but i am comfortable where we are and no doubt there is room for improvement, speed wise, at cetera, we will get there but for me, been a work in progress. great britain's hollie arnold has retained herjavelin title — at the world para athletics championships in dubai. that has laid

so that result at anfield means manchester city manager pep guardiola has lost eight matches in all competitions againstjurgen klopp, three more than he has against any other manager. city now fourth. nine points behind leaders liverpool. leicester and chelsea make up the top four. and manchester united move up to seventh. the other sunday match saw wolverhampton wanderers rise to eighth after beating aston villa. the season—ending atp tour finals are under way. world number two novak djokovic made a winning start. he beats matteo berrettini of italy in straight sets in just 49 minutes. roger federer is in action against dominic thiem. but the six time champion, lost the first set 5—7. it's currently 3—3 in the second set. the four player, djokovic, berretini, federer and thiem are in the same group, in the round robin phase of the competition. great britain's wheelchair racer hannah cockroft set a new world record to win her fifth consecutive t34100m title at the world pa ra—athletics championships. from dubai, our reporter kate grey rounds up sunday's action. the world records continue

so city remain six points behind leaders liverpool, manager pep guardiola is well aware of the threat liverpool pose to his side this season and their ability to come back and win matches. it happened many times and liverpool have done that in the last years. sometimes it is this talent to score incredible goals in the last minute, he isa incredible goals in the last minute, he is a talent so like what happened in the past few seasons it takes a special character to do that. chelsea manager frank lampard says the premier league is in a "really dangerous place" with var after they beat watford 2—1, christian pulisic with their second. his comments relate to this incident, a penalty which wasn't awarded by the referee, but was then overturned by var. he said there's no consistency to how it's being used. celtic are into the scottish league cup final after beating hibs 5—2 at hampden park. captain scott brown with two goals, celtic face the winners of today's other semi final between rangers and hearts. in the scottish premiership yesterday, there were wins for aberdeen and motherwel

so that result at anfield means manchester city boss pep guardiola has lost eight matches in all competitions againstjurgen klopp, three more than he has against any other manager. city are now 4th, 9 points behind leaders liverpool. leicester and chelsea make up the top four. and manchester united move up to 7th. the other sunday match saw wolverhampton wanderers rise to 8th after beating aston villa. it‘s still neck and neck at the top of the scottish premiership after celtic and rangers both won. rangers beat livingston 2—0, while celtic beat motherwell by the same scoreline. 0dsonne edouard with celtic‘s first to keep them in first place on goal difference. novak djokovic has made a winning start at the season—ending atp world tour tennis finals. he beat matteo berrettini 6—2, 6—1 in his first match. not such a good opening match for roger federer, who lost to dominic thiem, the austrian winning the first set 7—5. and the world number five won the second set by the same scoreline. it‘s the third time this year that thiem has beaten federer. great britain have won two silve

klopp has hit back from accusations from pep guardiola that mane dives. i will have more on the stories later. the united states has formally notified the united nations that it intends to withdraw from the paris climate change agreement, sparking international condemnation. it is the first formal step of a one year process of leaving the deal, culminating the day after next year‘s presidential election. the paris agreement commits nearly 200 nations to reducing greenhouse emissions. 0ur washington correspondent gary 0‘donoghuejoins me now. this was expected and, in many ways, america has suffered the heat as a result. yes, president trump has been saying this for some time, made as beach a couple of years ago saying this was going to happen. this was the first opportunity the us had to make this sort of formal notification to the united nations and if president trump is re—elected next year, he can pull out the day after. as you said, as you are to that, the terrible wildfires in california, many climate activists here pointing to those as being th

pep guardiola's side have only kept one clean sheet in eight matches but when he was asked about his defensive issues, he was, well, a bit defensive. we are ready defensively, well attuned defensively, so we conceed few chances. have to adjust a little bit one little detail, but but we are a team in the last seasons where we conceded a few chances and few goals. the top two sides in the scottish premiership celtic and rangers both play tomorrow, but there are four games today including third place aberdeen at home to struggling st mirren. full coverage on the bbc sport website. red bull's max verstappen went fastest in final practice in abu dhabi, ahead of sunday's final grand prix of the season. once again, verstappen was the only man to challenege the mercedes drivers. he finished 0.074 seconds ahead of world champion lewis hamilton, with valterri bottas in third. qualifying gets under way at one o'clock this afternoon. slowly but surely saracens are moving back towards zero in rugby union's premiership. remember they've been docked 35 points for breaching the salary cap, but six p

pep guardiola appeared less then genuine as he applauded the referees for their performance at full—time. city are fourth, a point behind leicester and chelsea, they have been crowned champions twice now, back to back. i don't see why the defeat yesterday would cast any doubt. i know if i was in the middle of the dressing room i would have been thinking, we created a lot of chances against a very strong liverpool, more chances probably than in previous years when we went to anfield. and nine points is really — it's something you can overcome. but with a busy winter period coming, i would still believe. the video assistant referee was again under the spotlight yesterday, with that early penalty appeal. neil swarbrick is head of implementation for var in the premier league. he told me that it could take two or three years before they are completely happy with how the system is used. we have officiated 70 games in the caribou cup, fa cup for the last two seasons trying to get experience. caribou cup, fa cup for the last two seasons trying to get experiencem is nothing like ten premier lea

pep guardiola knew it, the video assistant was involved. the easy bit should have been this for gabrieljesus. they'd regret that miss. a rare moment of quality from the italians pulled them back into the match. city had to play with ten men for the last ten minutes claudio bravo sent off.

guardiola knows they're in a battle to retain their title. probably right now they are the strongest team in the world. anyway, playing in anfield, how it means for them, for all their rivals. it is 90 minutes, or 94, and we are going to try to follow the plan we have thaw of in this game. we have to play our best game. everybody in the stadium has to be absolutely top shape. the guys who sell the hotdogs have to be in a top shape. so everybody has to be from the first second come early in the stadium, go inside, nothing to do outside, wait for the team warming up, be there, all that stuff. well, could leicesterjoin liverpool and manchester city as title contenders? they're now in second place after a 2—0 win over arsenal. jamie vardy‘s 11th goal of the season put them in front. and james maddison secured the win as he added a second. that's a fourth consecutive league win for leicester. this chelsea are also well in the mix. they're up to third after their sixth league win in a row — beating crystal palace 2—0. tammy abraham and chri

pep guardiola's side have only kept one clean sheet in eight matches but he was asked about his defensive issues and was a little bit defensive! we are a very good team defensively. we concede few chances. we have to adjust some little details but it is a team in the last seasons where we have conceded very few chances and very few goals. the top two sides in the scottish premiership, celtic and rangers, both play tomorrow, but there are four games today, including third placed aberdeen at home to struggling cimarron, and there is full coverage on the bbc sport website. slowly but surely, saracens are moving back towards zero in the gallagher premiership. remember, they were docked 30 points for breaching the salary cap. six points from 0wen farrell and this time from scotland's sean maitland saw them beat bath 25—12 last night and that means that they are on —18. in the pro 1a, ulster picked up a bonus point as they beat scarlett‘s 29-5. this bonus point as they beat scarlett‘s 29—5. this spectacular finish was the first of their five tries. 0n the first of their five tries. 0n

guardiola, emotions we re klopp and pep guardiola, emotions were running very klopp and pep guardiola, emotions were running very high for the whole of the 90 minutes and afterwards. i can tell you that the england manager, gareth southgate, has released a statement. he has said he a lwa ys released a statement. he has said he always ta kes released a statement. he has said he always takes pride in the fact that his side has always been able to separate club rivalries, but on this occasion the emotions from sunday at anfield were still raw. he adds that dropping sterling for thursday‘s game is the right thing for the team. he has not sent sterling home. there are two ways of looking at this, the england squad are still together, they had to get through the rest of the week, which is a little bit awkward. as i mentioned earlier, sterling has apologised pretty much straightaway. there are questions about whether it should have been kept in—house, or you could say it is great it has been dealt with and is in the open. young gareth southgate is known for being a brilliant man manager,

last weekend, city manager pep guardiola accused sadia manet of being a diver. early in the second half, the striker gave his emphatic reply. his revenge served cold, liverpool on fire. but city managed to douse it thanks to bernardo silva man for the first time in the match, anxiety crept in asa time in the match, anxiety crept in as a city tried to fight back. it was a nervy ending after such a positive start. but it is still love looking like the gap between these two will take a lot to close. so this is how it looks at the top of the table this evening. liverpool eight points clear of second placed leicester and third placed chelsea. and nine points ahead of champions manchester city. in the earlier kick—offs, manchester united gained a valuable three points taking them up to seventh, with a win over brighton. andreas pereira and davy propper‘s own goal put 0le gunnar solskjaer‘s side two up by half time. lewis dunk pulled one back for brighton, but united hit back straightaway, marcus rashford restoring their two—goal advantage. the victory moves th
