Ian dennis was watching. A night to forgive for aston villa, a night that will be cherished by olympiacos, as they reach their first ever european final. Thoroughly deserved over the two legs where el kaabi followed up his hat trick with a goal in each half. This first from close range after ten minutes, this second after 78 minutes, following a long vr delay, traded bedlam inside the stadium. Villa rarely look like scoring, baileys effort tipped over before half time. They appeared to run out of steam in the second half. Olympiacos are only the second greek club to reach a european final after an absence of 53 years. And they will play for her and tina five miles up the road in athens. You will feel like home for their biggest night in the clubs history they will play fiorentina. Relegation matters in the English Premier League are going down to the wire. Nottingham forest, luton town and burnley are all set for a huge weekend. With just two games to go, only one of those sides can av
Become the big market for them also, so that s also part of the european calculations. D0 the european calculations. Do ou the european calculations. Do you seeing that the Balance Of Power shifting, then, and they have to adjust accordingly . I think the europeans are acutely aware of the change in the Balance Of Power. And remember, for europe today, one nightmare that they really worry about is the reelection of donald trump coming in for the reelection of donald trump coming infora the reelection of donald trump coming in for a second time as president of the united states, and they know that donald trump has absolutely no emotional connection to europe. He does not quite see the value of his european allies, and europe may have to get a much more difficult geopolitical environment. In that difficult geopolitical environment, when europe is looking for ways and means to possibly restrain russia at that point in time, maybe they can talk with china. And as you know china played an I

Good evening. Donald trump has become the first us president , former or current, to stand trial in a criminal case after appearing in court in new york. Hes accused of falsifying his Business Records to disguise a Hush Money Payment made to the former adult film star, Stormy Daniels, shortly before the 2016 election. Mr trump has pleaded not guilty and was his usual defiant self outside court, claiming the attack was an assault on america, and repeating unsubstantiated claims that the trial is a witch hunt against him. Our north america editor sarah smith reports. Its become a well rehearsed ritual Donald Trumps performance on his way to court. But this time its very different. The first criminal trial of a former president , and it comes with a possible prison sentence. Just look at his face. He seems drained of all his usual bombast, while insisting he is the victim of a conspiracy to derail his president ial campaign. This is political persecution. This is a persecution like never
