You are live in the cnn newsroom. Im jim acosta in washington. Good evening. We are inching closer to i deadline in the governments case against former President Donald Trump over his efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

They are really difficult to play against and we like to generate more moments and more control. But overall, yeah, winning again, clean sheet and going another three days, another game. Phil foden scored a hat trick for Manchester City as they beat aston villa 4 1 at the etihad stadium. Its 21 goals for the season now for foden, his three goals coming after rodri opened the scoring for pep guardiolas side who now move level on points with liverpool for 2h hours at least, while villa remain 4th.
