My date for the evening is our football reporterjohn bennett well discuss things in just a moment but first, the action. It was watched byjohn watson. Its its been nine years since liverpool last appeared in the knockout stage alongside yours elite, a run that belies their rich history in the european cup.

Its its because to put it in context porto are having a wonderful season and havent won the Portuguese League since 2013 but their fans think this is the year they win it again. They are top of the table two clear of benfica with a game in hand. Their last defeat was in 0ctober. Theyve only lost once at home in all competitions this season. Home in all competitions this season. For liverpool to go to the home stadium where they have a fantastic record and score five goals, incredible. Theyve scored more than any team in the Champions League this season. The 17th time liverpool have scored three or more goals this season. Mohamed salah scoring yet again. 30 for the season. Scoring yet again. 30 for the season. Who would have expected that from him . Its important for sadio mane that hat trick, he was on a five game goal drought, confidence had been lacking because he wasnt getting the focus and attention Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah have been getting. Huge night for liverpool, they are into the quarterfinals, its all over. Important victory for them. And for Cristiano Ronaldo and his team mates can be huge fixture against paris st germain.

The st took the lead, lots of character shown by real madrid. 33 minutes gone shown by real madrid. 33 minutes gone. 1 0 to ps6. They had chances to make it 2 0 but this was the key moment before half time. Toni kroos brought down. Ronaldo steps up, his 100th Champions League goalfor real madrid. No other player has scored more Champions League goals for single club. He makes it 2 1. Looked as though that would be how it would end. All the talk was about psts resilient neymar but it was a brazilian Marcelo Varela madrid who scored the crucial third. Pressure off Zinedine Zidane bomb he ran over to celebrate. It shows you the players are behind the manager and it is advantage real madrid. The pressure very much on the pst boss unai emery who made poor substitutions. Psg boss.

Im really proud to come out on top today and ankle for those guys honestly, they push me to get to this point, to be able to do these kinds of runs. Elsewhere history of a very different sort made in doors. If the mere presence of north korean skaters on south korean ice was significant, the display of this couple was quite magnificent.

The men took silverfour years attention turned to curling. The men took silver four years ago and though this is a new team, they bring with them similar dreams.

There is a process in place for me to be able to demonstrate that and thats what i intend to do. This is a process that a lot of athletes have gone through, a lot of other riders have gone through as well and i dont see why i should have different treatment to them. They were all racing in the meantime until they got to the end of their processes. How far along the process are you . There is a process there that allows me to demonstrate that there has been no wrongdoing and that is obviously what i intend to do, and we are in the middle of that process now and i am not able to speak about that publicly.

Sadio mane with a hat trick. And remember more curling on the way at the Winter Olympics you can watch the action on bbc one, the red button and online from ten past midnight. Thats all from sportsday. Coming up in a moment, the papers. Hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are the political commentator and former tory adviserjo anne nadler, and the journalist james rampton. Thank you for being with us. Several front pages are already in. And theres little consensus on the lead. The times has a picture on its front page of south africas president jacob zuma, announcing his resignation. The express headlines the news that medical research has found that processed food poses a cancer danger. The lead in the Daily Telegraph is the demand from the dup for the resumption of direct rule from westminster, after power sharing talks in Northern Ireland broke down. And the metro leads on the homeless man who died just yards from parliament, after a night of sub zero temperatures. So, jacob zuma, and warnings about links between processed food and cancer on a couple of papers there, lets take a closer look. The guardian, a picture ofjacob zuma. Steps down ahead of favourite of no confidence he jumped before zuma. Steps down ahead of favourite of no confidence hejumped before he was pushed. Absolutely. Having worked in a Newspaper Office for many years im always impressed when they kick into action and turn out a front page very quickly because this speech did not happen so long ago. It was 30 minutes. It was quite rambling. To get it on the front page with a picture of him looking downcast is a very good bit of journalism. Sometimes you can do it with a big picture, you dont need too many words. Jason burke, an excellent correspondent, summed it up excellent correspondent, summed it up well. There is more online that weve read. Its interesting is very defiant, he gave a really angry interview again quite rambling, over allow this afternoon saying he was the victim in all of this. This evening he said, ifear no motion of no confidence or impeachment. Hes not going to go out without a fight. My not going to go out without a fight. My senses he spent last week wrangling about getting immunity from prosecution because over 700 charges of corruption await him at the moment is not president. Hes been wrangling saying, can i cut some sort of deal . Like happened in zimbabwe when it was forced to step down. At the moment the constitution doesnt allow for that and he may be worried about those charges hanging over him. Definitely echoes of robert mugabe. I think so, i was last on the programme the day he eventually stood down. Its two lots of pressure on jacob eventually stood down. Its two lots of pressure onjacob zuma. One is the criminal charges potentially, and the very widespread understanding of a lot of corruption here. Police are going to the family of the guptills, i think, today, to close some of that down. And investigate that in a way that hasnt been out in the open yet. On the other side is the political pressure about the real problems with the economy and complete mismanagement of the economy. Itll be interesting to see how his likely successor can actually improve the situation. Its a country in complete chaos. A long way from the rule of mandela. That glorious optimism. We remember the rule of mandela. That glorious optimism. We rememberthe sense rule of mandela. That glorious optimism. We remember the sense of the rainbow nation, when he was released, proving a beacon of hope to the world. Zoom in his nine years has managed decline and seemed to favour his cronies. The
