You're very welcome along to the programme, wherever you are watching around the world. Let's start then, with the busy evening of champions league football around europe and a surprising loss for the five—time winners of the competition. Barcelona have won their first five la liga games of the season, however, they were beaten 2—1 by monaco. Hansi flick�*s side were forced to play most of the match with ten men after defender eric garcia was sent off. George elnikecina scored the winner for the french side, who are back in europe's top competition for the first time in five years. They bring a lot of players in with the youth speed and it was not easy to to defend and after 10 minutes or 12 minutes with a red card, the game changed totally. But what i can see is really the positive things we tried, first, we tried to really to to defend as a team and also attack as a team. And we have chances. But today they deserve the 2—1 so we have to accept that. Elsewhere then a late header byjose maria gimenez gave atletico madrid a21 win over rb leipzig. The german visitors took the lead in the fourth minute. However, atletico dominated for the most part with 20 attempts on goal before finding the winner. And let's move to france. Because brest celebrated winning their first ever match in a european competition after goals from hugo magnetti and abdallah sima secured a 2—1 victory for them over sturm graz. Then to bayer leverkusen, they cruised to a 4—0 victory at feyenoord. Florian wirtz scored twice on his champions league debut, and that was the dutch side's first defeat since dane brian priske replaced arne slot as manager. In serbia, benfica won their opening match in the competition for only the second time in their past eight campaigns, a 2—1 victory for them at red star belgrade, a brilliant free kick proved the winner there and then david raya made an unbelievable double save from a penalty as arsenal played out a goalless draw at the italian side, atalanta. Chances were at a premium, with that one moment really providing the bulk of the drama on the night. Well, we came here expecting a really good positive performance from arsenal on the front foot, really asking this atalanta team, who have conceded an awful lot of goals lately, asking them an awful lot of questions, but it was actually the other way around. And arsenal's now—usual defensive solidity that got them through the game, they were they were terrific defensively. David raya tipping that off with an absolutely outstanding double save. You'll not see many better. First from the penalty and then the reaction to make sure arsenal kept a clean sheet. They were poor in possession moving forward. They give the ball away far too cheaply at times when they were trying to start off moves and lacked creativity throughout the game. That's the absence of martin odegaard, justifiably showed, they never came to grips with the man to man marking style of atalanta. And actually, i think when mikel arteta looks back on this game, i think he'll be quite pleased that they ended up with a point despite the performance they put on. And you know, at the end of the season these can be good points. Former everton footballer leon osman there. To cricket now, in travis head, scored a superb unbeaten 154 as australia saw off england by seven wickets in the first one day international at trent bridge. England looked to be in good shape, with ben duckett striking 11 boundaries on his way to a hefty 95. However, the hosts lost their last eight wickets for just 102 runs as the australian spinners bowled england out for 315. So then, in reply, australia lost mitchell marsh and steve smith early, but the in—form travis head stayed put with a magnificent 154 for him to put the aussies in control. And then marnus labuschagne hit the winning runs with six overs to spare as the tourists went one up in that five match series and they'll meet again at headingley on saturday. Rory mcilroy has got off to a good start at the pga championship at wentworth, despite a bizarre moment in his opening round. The world number three was hitting his approach here into the par five 12th when his clubhead flew off after impact. Mcilroy did manage to card a birdie on that hole, eventually finished his round in a tie for fourth on five under. And it is england's matthew baldwin who leads the way at the top of the leaderboard. Seven under par round for him after carding a blemish free round of 65. Onto tennis now and the 2024 laver cup gets underway on friday in berlin. John mcenroe�*s team world take on bjorn borg team europe in the three day event, which this year features six of the top ten players in the world rankings, including reigning french open and wimbledon champion carlos alcaraz, who will be making his laver cup debut. We don't talk too much. We are on our own all the time with our team. Uh, we don't watch all the matches. So now it's going to be different. Now it's going to be, we are going to support each other. We are going to, uh, laugh. We are going to talk a lot. So i am going to try to enjoy as much as i can this week with, with then try to to know them a little bit more personally. Boxing now and anthonyjoshua and daniel dubois faced off while meeting the press in london on thursday. The pair will compete in an all—british ibf world heavyweight title fight at wembley stadium on saturday. Dubois won the interim ibf title injune and was elevated to world champion status when oleksandr usyk vacated, so the pair will clash in front of a reported post—war british record crowd of 96,000 fans. It's a blessing to be back again, to be able to perform, prove to myself, prove to my team that i've listened to the instructions in training camp, and we're ready to rock and roll, and i'm in supreme condition, both physically and also mentally. So yeah, it's good to be back. And i've been watching some of the old fights as well. Just adding some fuel to the fire, ready to rumble, reminding myself what i can do and what i'm capable of. I'm tough. So is he, and as frank said, we've got all similarities. So may the best man win. The world title. I need to retain it and hold on to it. So yeah, it's a great thing to have. But i need to legitimise myself by winning this fight. So, you know, i'm ready to go to war and ready for a fight. It's a resurrection story of my career. And you know, i'm just on a roll right now. So, you know, ijust want the biggest challenges and make a name for myself and create history. The fight for sport's oldest international trophy has taken its next step with the british team discovering who it will face in the race to meet the america's cup defending champions. On wednesday, ben ainslie�*s boat ineos britannia qualified for the louis vuitton cup — the name given to the challenger series that will produce the team that will take on new zealand in the main event. And on thursday, italy's luna rossa joined them after completing a win over us boat america magic in barcelona. The italians lost in the america's cup series three years ago, having beaten ainslie�*s team at the same stage that they will meet this year. So a rematch for the four time olympic sailing champion. Luna rossa are a strong team. We know that. They've been in the america's cup game for some 25 years now, so they're a very experienced organisation. They've got a great technical technical team and a great sailing team, and ultimately they had a faster package down in auckland across the range of conditions. This time, what's different is i think our boat, our equipment is much more competitive. We're much better prepared. This is now our third generation or third attempt at the america's cup. And each time we learn, we get better. So we've got a better overall package, and i think we can really take it to them this time. Visually, it is a particularly arresting sight, watching what appears to many to be kind of a formula one car on the water. But what's particularly different this time as well, apart from what you mentioned, is that you have cyclors, you have people who are cycling below deck to provide you with the power. Now cyclor sounds like some sort of villain from a marvel movie, but can you explain how crucial they are to making your boat go? yeah, the cyclors are absolutely critical to this america's cup and to each team, and they really power all of the aerodynamic functions. So all of the sail functions that power the yacht are powered by the cyclors, and they are pushing extremely hard. We have four of them on board. And in any given race, the races last somewhere around 20—25 minutes, and these cyclers are putting out power averages power averages of around 500w over 20—25 minutes, which anyone who knows much about cycling will know that that's an extremely high level of performance, and they're doing that whilst they're sailing around on a 75 foot foiling monohull doing, you know, close to 60 miles an hour. So it's it's pretty extreme sport. Ben ainslie there talking to our colleague, hugh ferriss. Amazing how that all operates. Remember you can get all the latest sport news using the bbc sport website and app. That is where you will get all the latest results from the champions league. We had lots of action on thursday, so head to the bbc sport website and the bbc sport app to find out all the results. But for me and the rest of the team, have a lovely day wherever you are around the world. Bye— bye. Hello there. For some parts of the uk, there is a big change on the way weather—wise, particularly in the south, where on thursday we saw a lot of sunshine. Temperatures in london got above 26 celsius. But we're watching this area of low pressure swirling up from the south, increasingly bringing some showers and thunderstorms over the next few days. And the rainfall is really going to accumulate. Some spots could be looking at around a month's worth of rain from these intense downpours and thunderstorms — however, only really in the south. Further north, it remains largely dry. The best of the sunshine across north—west england, northern ireland, western scotland. Eastern scotland, north—east england likely to be plagued by a lot of cloud, which will make it feel rather cool. And actually that cloud has been rolling its way a long way inland, taking its time to burn back towards the east coast through the day on friday, but it should do. Staying quite murky, though, for parts of eastern scotland, north—east england. And then down towards the south of england, perhaps into the midlands, wales, we will see some of these showers and thunderstorms popping up, some of which will give a lot of rain in a short space of time. 23 degrees in london, just 15 if the cloud lingers there in aberdeen. And as we go through friday night, that cloud again rolls a little bit further inland. Still the chance for some showers and thunderstorms rumbling around across the channel islands, getting back into southern counties of england. A mild night forjust about all of us, a mild start to the weekend. And again on saturday, down towards the south, we'll see these showers and thunderstorms across southern counties of england, into east anglia, the midlands, parts of wales. But for northern england, northern ireland, western scotland, we'll see some sunshine. Eastern scotland, north—east england, still plagued by that cloud, perhaps the odd spot of drizzle. Could be quite misty and murky around some of the coast, and temperatures, if anything, coming down a little bit from where they have been. And then into sunday, it looks like we'll see some slightly more persistent, heavy, thundery rain, again affecting southern parts of the uk, east anglia, the midlands, wales. Further north from there, largely dry. Best of the sunshine in the north—west, more cloud into the north east, so the pattern continues. But a change in the weather pattern next week. It does turn really quite unsettled. Showers or longer spells of rain, could be quite windy, and it turns quite a lot colder as well. Live from washington, this is bbc news.
