They pulled one back early in the second half i could not manage an equaliser. Instead, ina could not manage an equaliser. Instead, in a chaotic finish, a goal went through in stoppage time to seal a 3 1 dealfor al sadd. Mohammed then lost his head. They finished with ten men. Al sadd have a quarter final to look forward to. I think a quarter final to look forward to. Ithink in a quarter final to look forward to. I think in the first leg, the first game, we were better. Today, no. Today we were better in the first half. You have to be honest. In the second half we suffered a lot. They are very happy. We are in the quarter finals of the Champions League. It is an amazing achievement for us. Alhilal are also through to the quarter finals despite losing at home to their saudi rivals. Abdel fa tta h home to their saudi rivals. Abdel Fattah El Sisi scored the only goal of the second leg just before halftime. It was a consolation for his side. 4 3 winners on aggregate, al hilal can dream of a First Champions League title in 19 years. And heres the quarter final line up in full. There are three teams from saudi arabia and one from qatar in the west region, and two each from china and japan in the east including the defending champions kashima antlers. The first legs will be played in the last week of august, with the return legs in mid september. Meanwhile, in the european Champions League the third qualifying round second legs took place on tuesday.

The uefa super cup takes place in istanbul on wednesday night, with Champions League winners liverpool facing europa League Winners chelsea. Its the first time that two english sides will have faced each other in the super cup and chelsea go into the game on the back of losing 4 0 at Manchester United on sunday. Its important as a club like chelsea that we give everything to try and win it, because yes, it does mean something, it means something for us as another trophy, as a club, and for me it would be a really nice start for me personally. But more than that, a feeling for the players with the season coming up that we can compete against liverpool, win a cup in our name that goes down in our history and go on from there. Everything is prepared for a final, obviously, so we have to make sure were ready for a final. We have to make a few decisions about lineup and stuff like this that can be kind of a little bit unpredictable, probably for the opponent as well, because we dont know how they play, why should they know how we play, especially in the early stages of the season. So we are here, everything is prepared, and lets go. History will be made in istanbul on wednesday, when Stephanie Frappart from france takes charge of the super cup match. Shell become the first female referee to officiate in a major uefa mens game. Frapparts refereed ligue i games in france and recently took charge of the womens world cup final. Shell have the same female assistants in istanbul. I think there is not a lot of difference, because football is the same. Only teams play differently, but as a man or as a woman, that we cannot referee the same game between women and men, so for me its the same because refereeing is the same. So football is the same, it is the same rules, so i will do the same as with the womens leagues. On to tennis, and there was a shock defeat for the defending womens champion kiki bertens at the cincinnati open. The number five seed was beaten in three sets by venus williams, whos currently ranked 65 in the world. Victoria azarenka made it through to the second round after Belinda Bencic was forced to retire with a foot injury. Azarenka, who won the title in 2013, took the first set 6 4, and the opening game of the second set. Bencic then asked to see the trainer and after a consultation decided she could no longer continue. Azarenka will now face Croatias Donna Vekic in the second round and the winner of that will play venus williams. Madison keys, the number eight seed, is also through to the second round after coming from a set down to beat the former world number one garbine muguruza. The first two sets went to tie breaks, before keys whos still looking for first tier1 title took the decider 6 4. In the mens singles, Novak Djokovic began the defence of his title with a straight sets victory over sam querrey of the usa. Djokovic, who had a bye in the first round, won 7 5, 6 1. Meanwhile, Stan Wawrinka is through to the second round, but he had to come from a set down to beat grigor dimitrov. Both players have been in the worlds top three, but slipped down the rankings in recent years. Three time grand slam champion wawrinka, whose only masters series title was in monte carlo five years ago, took the deciding set on tie break. Hell now face the russian qualifier andrey rublev. Frances tiafoe is also through to the second round. The american, ranked 52 in the world, pulled off a shock win to beat gael monfils of france in straight sets. Tiafoe saved three sets points to take the first set 7 6, and then won the second 6 3, to seal his place in the last 32. Australias cricketers will be hoping to strengthen their grip on the ashes when the second test gets under way at lords in london on wednesday. They fought back to win the first test in birmingham by 251 runs, so 1 0 up in the 5 match series. England have been forced to ring the changes withjofra archer set to make his test debut in place of the injured james anderson, asjoe wilson reports. Welcome here at laws the first question should be what has changed since the first test match in this ashes series . Well, it is too simple just to sayjofra archer, but he is inescapable. England didnt name their 11 here today, but we can imagine the points in this test match when joe imagine the points in this test match whenjoe root is able to unleash his fastest bowler, his new dimension, he is ourjob. And what will happen then . Potentially, is jofra archer the guy who could the ashes this summer . We will have to wait and see. If you ask him he will definitely say yes. Again, that is what you want, young guys coming in full of confidence, belief in their own ability, and someone who is definitely not going to shy away from any challenge. So its great to have characters like that in the dressing room. It feeds off the rest of the guys as well. And its a great position for him to start in. Well, jofra archer has never played a test match. But of course he is well known around the world and other forms of the game. He has played big bash cricket in australia. So, from an Australian Point of view, is he really anything to fear . A lot of our guys have seen john fry orfaze him, which is a plus, it has been an white ball cricket. We have faced him in australia where conditions really suit fast bowling. So think have seen him at his fastest. Guys know what to expect and know how good he is and how skilled he is. Like most policy play test cricket there will be times when he is a real threat and we will have to whether that. Will australia rotate their options for this test test match, James Pattinson having a rest. What has chases edgbaston . Steve smith will he remains the outstanding batsmen in the series, the outstanding test match batsmen, you have to say, in the wild. Bingham will have to a way of getting out. Joe root says maybe they lost a bit of patience in the first test match. He is expecting a big response from his team. Well, if either side are going to win this test match they will have to go about it quickly. The weather will intervene. If you can spot some sunshine and blue sky above me right now, well, enjoy it while it lasts. Joe wilson, bbc news, at lords. That is all the time we have left 110w. But from me, and the rest of the sport today team goodbye. Pretty cloudy day ahead of us on wednesday. Rain on and off pretty much anywhere in the uk. There might even be one or two rumbles of thunder across the midlands, east anglia, lincolnshire as well. By thursday, the weather will improve. This is what it looks like right now. This is the weather system, this is all the cloud thats basically been heading our way through the course of the night. Clearer skies for a time in the east, but i think from the morning onwards its looking pretty damp if not wet across the south west of england, wales, just about lancashire, the lake district. Northern ireland getting a few spots of rain too as well as the western isles. But its not cold, its quite mild in fact. These are south westerly winds bringing some humid air, so temperatures in plymouth in the morning about 1k, well match that in cardiff, but in western and eastern scotland in rural spots temperatures could be two or three degrees above freezing. But quickly it will cloud over. Look at all that cloud in the uk across wednesday. On and off rain. Its not one solid area of rain that will be sweeping across the country, its sort of like bits of rain, so it will come and go, hit and miss really through the afternoon. Later in the day, it looks as though some Western Areas could brighten up because the weather front will pull away towards the east. Then come thursday, we are in between weather systems, one out there in the atlantic ready for the weekend, but on thursday before it arrives, the weathers looking absolutely fine. So after a cloudy, damp wednesday, thursday, more sunshine on the way. Temperatures will get up to 23 degrees because therell be more sun around and even nudging up to 20 just about across Northern England i think. Stornoway, no more than 15. Heres the low pressure swinging in off the atlantic on friday. Lots of isobars, so the winds will be pretty strong, gusting to around 40mph around these western and coasts. The rain probably wont reach the east of the country until a lot later in the day, so that means places like brighton, london, norwich, hull, will get away with a decent first half to friday. The rain might not reach london until friday night, for example, but for wales and the south west, looking pretty wet on friday and the temperatures only around, say, 17 19 degrees at least for most of us. Friday night, that low pressure continues to make its journey to the east and come saturday and sunday, its going to turn blustery in the uk with gusts of wind in some areas could be approaching 50mph. So another very windy weekend potentially on the way. Bye bye. Welcome to bbc news. Im mike embley.
