Hugely pleased with the goals and a level of the performance and how well the players did tonight. We were really unhappy from the first game. All the staff, the players, we felt we shouldnt have come out with the result we had. We had to live with that and try and put it right and tonight we did. There were remarkable scenes as Bayer Leverkusen kept their unbeaten season alive late on to beat qarabag. The visitors were 2 0 up, 4 2 ahead on aggregate, but xabi alonso� s side went on to win 3 2 on the night, thanks to two stoppage time goals from patrik schick.

Second half goals from leon bailey, john duran and moussa diaby sealed villas progress to the last eight.

We watched him as a back up in the under 21 finals last year and if you said to me he would play as consistently well at Premier League level as he has, i would have questioned that last summer. So he is in on merit and really keen to work with him and find out more about him. The final weekend of the six nations is almost upon us, with a Super Saturday of action. Wales face italy with the unwanted wooden spoon upforgrabs. While ireland are favourites to be crowned champions in dublin, when they face scotland. However, theres a possible route to the title for england, when they take on france. It would be dependent on ireland losing and then various bonus point permutations, so get the calculators readyjust in case. Our correspondent andy swiss is in dublin ahead of it all. Ireland might have been tempted to make a few changes after that agonising defeat against england last weekend, but they havent, their coach andy farrell said in the Press Conference earlier that when people are disappointed, you tend to get a good reaction. So he has named an entirely unchanged starting 15 to face scotland. That means calvin nash has been included. He had to leave the field at twickenham last weekend after only a few minutes after he suffered a head injury, but he has since passed a Head Injury Assessment and is therefore available to play. As for scotland, there will be looking to bounce back from the defeat against italy last weekend. They have made two changes to their starting 15. The first six nations start for Stafford Mcdowall at centre, he replaces cameron redpath. Well ben white returns at scrum half. He was arrested last weekend, but he is back in the starting 15. As for england, they have made one change to their starting 15 as they prepare to face france.

He hadnt had a Cheltenham Festival winner before today and then he had one with one of the start of the day and then a second in the Ryanair Chase when Protector Act Won for him. He is a part owner. It is trained by dan skelton. You can see the look on sir alexs face when he celebrated those two winners. It looked like the joy will be used to seeing what he was a Football Manager and asked dan skelton, if he had ever spoken to sir alex about the impact of being a winning owner and what it means to him and this is what he said. He is a competitor at the end of the day and once he retired from managing, still wanted to be competitive and his horses gave him a chance to be that competitor still. I think he enjoys not having the pressure of preparation, but what a guy to have in your corner, to be able to spring things off and he gives me life lessons all the time. You just listen to what he has to say, you can pick up an awful lot. Sir dan skelton has had a remarkable festival, he has enjoyed four winners, a brilliant day for the british trainers fighting back from two days of dominance for the irish. The other feature race of the day did go to ireland, that was won by Gordon Elliott because my course. Sir alex wasnt the only Football Manager to have a winner today because Harry Redknapp also owned a winner, and he likened the nerves of watching his horse try to win when he was climbing up the Cheltenham Hill to being 1 0 up in a cup final at wembley, he said it was very nerve racking but he seemed thrilled to have a winner. Rather than being the Olympics Ofjump Racing this has been like the Premier League ofjump racing today.

Matt fitzpatrick and nick taylor are one shot off them. I didnt really have many expectations going out there today because i was like, 0k, it feels good on the range, feels good in practice but lets see how it is when you have a card in your hand. There is something to be said for that, just sort of lessening the expectations and going out and seeing what happens. But it was obviously a great start. Afterfinishing seventh in his first formula i start in saudi arabia filling in for the absent carlos sainz, british ferrari driver 0llie Bearman is targeting a full time seat in 2025. Team mate Charles Leclerc believes its only a matter of time before the 18 year old is in f1 but for now, bearman says hes fully focused on his formula 2 season. Youre only as good as your last race, so i think in a weeks time or two weeks� time this will all be forgotten and i will bejudged on my previous f2 race, so that is my main focus and i have to do great for the rest of the year in f2. I am currently at last having the race weekend jetta, so after some work to catch up but that is my main focus i want to do as good as i can in the f2 championship and see where we are at the end of that.

And all the live scores, they are all on the bbc sport website and the app. From me and the rest of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. Hello. Well, the weather has been very mild in the last day or so. In london, temperatures on thursday reached 18. 1 degrees celsius, so spring is definitely in the air. How about friday . I dont think its going to be quite as warm and if anything, a lot of cloud and a good chance of catching some rain. Now, currently, an area of low pressure is crossing us with its Weather Fronts and that spells a lot of rain bearing cloud. And in fact, through the night, it will have been a wet picture across many parts of scotland. Rain also around the Lake District and elsewhere weve got showers crossing the uk. Temperatures early in the morning on friday double figures for london and norwich and many of us around 9 10 degrees. A bit colder there in scotland 5 for aberdeen. The forecast, then, for friday, and a lot of cloud first half of the day, very few glimmers of sunshine. Showers possible through the morning and afternoon across england and wales, cracks of thunder likely, but out towards the west and in some other areas as well therell be some bright spells. Temperatures well, from Yorkshire Southwards i think were still talking about the mid teens, but further north and west, closer to around 10 or 11. And then friday night the skies clear, and into saturday morning with lighter winds, it is going to be a chilly start. So crisp sunshine early on saturday with temperatures in parts of scotland around 3 degrees celsius. I dont think its going to be frosty in the south. So saturday, lots of bright if not sunny weather across many northern and eastern areas. But this Weather Front is approaching its southwesterlies pushing the rain bearing clouds so there will be some damp weather for the south west, for wales, the irish sea and into northern ireland. Temperatures though, around 10 13 degrees. And then for the rest of the weekend, while Weather Fronts keep on crossing the uk, notice that the winds are blowing out of the southwest thats a mild direction. So if anything, despite all the cloud and the early outbreaks of rain, i think on sunday with that even southerly, i think the temperatures are going to rise. Were talking around 15 16, maybe even 17 degrees celsius in one or two spots across the east and the southeast. Lets have a look at the outlook. It is going to be a mixed bag, every weather icon you can possibly imagine. But those temperatures are going to remain on the mild side. Mid teens across the south around, say, 8 13 in the north of the uk. Thats it from me. Bye bye. Live from washington, this is bbc news.
