Arthroscopic knee surgery is good. He plays in australia and gets to the semifinals and then goes to south africa and plays for his foundation with rafael nadal stop he says the right knee has been bothering him. He was still able to play but they decided to do it now. The only other time he had an injury was 2016 with his knee when he injured it when he was taking one of his twins out of the bath. He came back from that by getting to the semifinals in australia the next year and winning at the year after that. We are a few is on but he must already be thinking about the end because of his age and his schedule. He does not play a schedule that would lead him to get to number one at the moment. It is pared down. He plays the tournaments he wants to play. He would love to add to his grand slam titles and it is significant that it is an olympic year. What is missing from his cabinet, one of the rare things is a gold medal in singles. He has had the doubles in the past. And there will not be andy murray that stop him this year.

Emmanuel dennis opened the scoring before Anthony Martial grabbed the equaliser and what could be a crucial away goal for 0le Gunnar Solskjaers side. It was a difficult game against a well organised team under difficult conditions. So i dont think it was one of the best games anyone has seen. We got away, and away goal, we got a draw, we go home next week so hopefully we can finish the job. Here are some of the nights other results. Sevilla who are bidding to win the cup for a record extending 6th time drew 1 1 at cluj in romania. Arsenal were 1 0 winners over 0lympiakoas in greece. Alexandre lacazette scored the only goal. Diogojota scored a hat trick as wolves thrashed espanyol 4 0. And Christian Eriksen was among the scorers as inter milan won 2 nil at Ludogorets Razgrad in bulgaria. It was his first goal for the club since joining them from tottenham last month. I think he is another player who needs to play. At the same time we needs to play. At the same time we need to find the right time to give him the opportunity to play. Today it was the right opportunity for him to play from the start and to play for the whole game and it is ok. He continued to work very hard to prove his physical condition and he has to continue this way. The build up to Deyontay Wilder and tyson fury fights are rarely dull. Weve seen pushing and shoving at the press conference, trash talk aplenty but all was calm on thursday ahead of the eagerly anticipated world heavyweight title rematch in las vegas. After their controversial draw in 2018, the two meet again on saturday. With the weigh in not until friday, its been quiter than usual but not for our reporter ade adedoyin. It was a rest day for both fighters from media activity so another opportunity to hear from the legends of the sport that have come to vegas over the last few days. Lennox lewis who held the undisputed heavyweight title, the last man to hold all major belts on the sport, he is here. He believes, david hey, that the power for here. He believes, david hey, that the powerfor wilder will here. He believes, david hey, that the power for wilder will be the difference tween the two men and he suspects wilder will when the fight ina suspects wilder will when the fight in a late stoppage. As for lennox lewis he says it is a difficult fight to call but he believes that the fight will live up to the hype. I think it will be an unbelievable fight. If tyson fury comes out and says he wants to try and knock him out in the first few rounds he will probably try. He is a type of guy to do that. But if that does not work for him then he will resort back to boxing and we will see tyson moving around and doing all kinds of Different Things and leading with a jaba bit Different Things and leading with a jab a bit more. Wilder or fury . I cant say. I cannot say. It really depends on the strategy of both fighters. Both corners are great, the strategy in both corners, being able to advise each boxer and for the boxer to listen. Lennox lewis on the boxer to listen. Lennox lewis on the fence there. As for the weigh in on friday there will be a little bit ofa on friday there will be a little bit of a difference there. The Nevada State Athletic Commission have barred the head to head shot so you will not fighters coming close together. They say they do not want any shenanigans like we saw a at the final press conference where both fighters were pushing each other, they say that is not the image they wa nt to they say that is not the image they want to project of the sport. It is highly unusual but a preventative measure to make sure the fight goes through as planned with no injury to any fighter. What i suspect is a raucous atmosphere because the arena whether fighters held we expect a few thousand fans to be shoehorned in and the majority of them will be fanciful fury. British fans have travelled here over the last few days so it could be a lively atmosphere. For the fighters they will just be atmosphere. For the fighters they willjust be glad to get all the media activities out of the way and then focus on what is the biggest night of the year so far.

India are currently on 95 11. From all of us at the bbc sport centre. Thanks for watching. See you next time. Hello there. The weather is staying unsettled to end the week and indeed into the weekend we have got more rain at times, also some strong winds, thanks to an active jetstream bringing areas of low pressure in. For friday, its going to be a very windy day, and most of the rain would be across Western Hills, across the northern half of the country. Here it is on the pressure charts. You can see lots of isobars across the country, so it will be windy and these weather fronts bringing outbreaks of rain to parts of northern ireland, particularly western northern ireland, into western scotland, north west england and, at times, into northern and western wales. Further south and east, it should be drier and brighter but a very blustery day for all. Those winds gusting 30 110 miles an hourfor many. Parts of south east scotland, east of the pennines, could see gusts around 60 miles a hour so these, in their own right, could cause some transport issues. Temperature wise, though, milder than what it was on thursday. Temperatures 10 12 degrees. Now, as we head through friday night, it stays wet across Western Hills in the north, but it looks like some of that rain will start to push a little bit further southwards, so affecting parts of South West England and in towards wales. Of course, anymore rainfall here is extremely unwelcome. Lots of showers piling into scotland. Temperatures falling here so theyll be wintry on the hills. But it will be milder across the south. That weather front pushes its way southwards and eastwards into saturday, bringing an unwelcome band of rain there, but further north, it stays very windy indeed. A real squeeze in the isobars there and there will be lots of showers. These piling into much of scotland, some heavy with hail, thunder, and also settling snow on the hills and maybe some blizzard conditions as well with the strength of the winds. Further south, rather cloudy, outbreaks of rain, mainly towards the west but it will be another mild day in the south 11 14 degrees, but colder further north. And then as we move through saturday night, this next feature runs into england and wales which could bring a spell of unwelcome rain once again. Further north, it will be quite windy with further showers but at least the good news is, through sunday, that rain should clear away quite quickly and then skies brighten up quite nicely, with plenty of sunshine around, so a welcome day of drier and brighter weather but it will feel a bit colder. That settled spell of weather, thanks to this ridge of high pressure, will be short lived because, across the atlantic, we will see the next very deep area of low pressure moving in on monday. Pushing towards the north of the uk to bring a spell of severe gales and further rain at times. So with more rain in the forecast for the next few days, flooding could be a further issue so just head on line to the bbc weather website to check out the weather and flood warnings.
