Hope for hull, as they beat relegations rivals swansea. Plenty to come this evening, weve also news of the womens it has been a busy day. Plenty to come this evening, weve also news of the womens six nations which is going down to the final weekend. But well start with the mens tournament, and englands victory at twickenham. Its their 18th win in a row, tying the record of new zealand. The 61 21 win over scotland gives them the calcutta cup. A great day for english rugby union, Alex Gulrajani followed the action. The silverware is in sight. Trophies galore on that the todays victors. Scotland, the calcutta cup and triple crown. England, the title. Without a win at twickenham for over 30 years, scotland were fired up. Too fired up. Fraser bradberry the sidelines before he was back on them. In his absence, prospered. Fraser brown barely. No matter start that their man, Jonathan Joseph fraser brown barely. No matter start that their man, jonathanjoseph in the try scoring mood. Two tries. Scotla nd the try scoring mood. Two tries. Scotland were not here to make up the numbers, gordon reid just getting them back in the game. As quickly as they were in, england push them back out again. Perfect timing in the backline as scotland we re timing in the backline as scotland were swept aside. Anthony watson with their third try of bihar. Hard to watch with them and it did not get any better for vern cotter after the break. Momentum stayed with england. A try, a hattrick. For jonathanjoseph. England. A try, a hattrick. For Jonathan Joseph. A huge jones tried to scotland would not spoil the ingres party. Back among the scorers. Ingres party. Back among the scorers. Time to put the feet up, well, almost. Danny care getting in on the act two, two late tries to ta ke on the act two, two late tries to take englands tally to seven. A record Equalling 18th Victory in the well, the calcutta cup and next week in dublin, the sixth nations trophy will be lifted. We can go tojoe who has been at twickenham for us. There are so many things to talk about, retaining the six nations title, 18 test wins in a iow. Six nations title, 18 test wins in a row. But the fact that it was the calcutta cup. What was impressive today . I think a lot of people were leaving twickenham in the next couple of hours wondering if were just seen the best Young Rugby Union tea m just seen the best Young Rugby Union team in the wild. That was the conclusion some of the Scottish Team we re conclusion some of the Scottish Team were starting to draw. You have to judge in the context with anyone, even a big win the standard of the opposition. We have to think back to four oclock this afternoon and all the expectation that scotland came into this game and the anticipation that this would be a close match. That is because scotland had put together such a good run of form of themselves, rising to numberfive in themselves, rising to numberfive in the world. Eddiejones is not the kind of coach who will ever be satisfied with the performance, he has a long term project, a long time goal with this england team but we do reflect on the fact that still with england he has not lost on International Test match. We will get some reaction from some of the participants in todays calcutta cup match. We will start with eddie jones. The focus is on the island. We want to win the grand slam. It is a chance to make history, no one has woii a chance to make history, no one has won back to back grand slams in the six nations history. I think there is only four in the history of the five nations and six nations. This isa want five nations and six nations. This is a want of a Life Opportunity and we are pleased to be six nations championship at the grand slam is something we are really looking forward to. It was more what we built up in the week. We focused on starting each session very well and we did that and we saw that are bad today, set piece was unbelievable. What we could do off the back of that, we are very proud, we are happy and we look forward to next week. Are very proud, we are happy and we look forward to next weeklj are very proud, we are happy and we look forward to next week. I am chuffed to bits. What a performance from the guys today. We put the pressure on ourselves to better performance than to start well. You quys performance than to start well. You guys have been banging the drum about arsenal starting work so i think we answered a few critics there which is good. About us not starting well. We are trying to move away from our title of plucky losers, that was not plucky, that was useless. That was not what we have tried to build two, we have got one week left, we can chancy black finish the championship but if we play like that, we have not no chance. They can finish on a high with their home game against italy, they are expecting to get some tries there, if they get some big players fit for that game. Lets end with a final thought about what is the enduring thought about rugby union, this match between england and scotla nd this match between england and scotland goes back to the 1870s. If you saw what Jonathan Joseph scotland goes back to the 1870s. If you saw whatjonathanjoseph did today, never mind the physicality, the strength of the players the state, the ability of a man to find space to run, to beat players and score tries which will put backsides even on these twickenham seats. That is my theory. That is a good theory. Thank you very much. France scored four tries to secure a bonus point over italy who looked destined for yet another within spain. This am, they are the rugby team who do not play rugby. It nearly led them to the most Famous Success at twickenham. France, they are the by twickenham. France, they are the rugby team to which they dare not lose. Continental rivalry brings out the best in the underdogs. They made the best in the underdogs. They made the perfect start. It has a 125th match, Sergio Crossing for the opener. At 33, he is still italys Evergreen Talismanic with as much in brawn as an brilliance. The french again have struggled to insert themselves on this tournament but when that flowing style of rugby does emerge, it is worth savouring. What a dummy. He is going to go underneath the sticks. Italy, success perhaps feels so close they get so far away. Theyre fast start so get so far away. Theyre fast start so often fall apart. 0h, get so far away. Theyre fast start so often fall apart. Oh, it was too easy. Italy have shown they can be an ingenious but this was a week of errors. Ifamous an ingenious but this was a week of errors. | Famous Success an ingenious but this was a week of errors. IFamous Success in an ingenious but this was a week of errors. I Famous Success in the six nations still fills some way. Deals. So heres confirmation of englands unassailable lead, they top the six nations table. Four wins out of four, eight points clear of both ireland and france. And england go to ireland next week to try and claim the record 19th win in a row, and the triple crown. The womens six nations will go down to the final weekend, with both ireland and england winning their penultimate matches this afternoon to remain unbeaten in the tournament. Englands kay wilson ran in a record seven tries against scotland, while earlier ireland edged past wales. Nick parrot has more. Locked at seven points all, the only difference between ireland and wales with hannah. Her try just difference between ireland and wales with hannah. Her tryjust after the hour mark was enough to keep ilans grand slam hopes alive. If she was the saviour at the saviour abbey park, kay wilson was the inspiration for england against scotland in the soup. Victory would set up a final showdown with ireland but only this call was in doubt as Wilson Rewrote the record books. Only be score. No one had much bad in the first half of womens six nations game before. Wilson missed the first couple of matches in the championship but missed nothing against scotland. She was at it against scotland. She was at it again in the second half, piling on the misery, making more history. Seven tries for kay wilson. In her wildest dreams, she would never thought was possible. The Team Comes First for her so when she was informed that her seven tries with the competition record, the look on herface said it the competition record, the look on her face said it all was she remained modest. It is so much fun. Asa team, remained modest. It is so much fun. As a team, we want to build on what we formed last week against italy. We are happy with the performance and is great to be at the stoop. She did not do her roommate any favours running tries into the corner is only meant to were converted. Alas one help englands past their biggest victory in years competition by a point. Ireland will be hoping hosting the decider on friday will give them some advantage against rampant england. Heres the table as things stand. Its heading to the final game in Dublin Ireland take on england next weekend. Both sides are on 18 points, both sides are unbeaten, the winner takes the title. It is on Saint Patricks day. To domestic rugby now, and leicester are on the verge of reaching the final of the anglo welsh cup. This trial has put them on course to beat saracens, 32 ten is the score at the moment. Five minutes left. Theyll face exeter or harlequins who play the other semifinal tomorrow. The final takes place at the stoop a week today. In the pro 12, ulster are hosting zebre. The game kicked off just after six oclock. The Home Side Have Ran in nine tries. The first to both scored by luke marshall. John andrew getting his first goalfor the luke marshall. John andrew getting his first goal for the club. Heading for a bonus point. We will let you know what happens with that game later on. Time to focus a little more on the ball. Thanks, karthi, lets start with the fa cup, where non league lincolns brilliant run has been ended by top flight arsenal, 5 0 the final score. 0ur Reporter Adam Wild is at the emirates for us. A good performance by the gunners, adam. It was in the end, it was the Impossible Task for lincoln city. They have brought a lot of fans with them. As you might imagine, there was quite a reaction. It is a credit to lick and city and the indication that the matters under that he brought about his strongest possible site for this final. Lincoln on the first non league side to meet the last eight since 1919 seats like that kept this and this one too. Not only did the underdogs defend expertly, what a chance that was. The brothers know it and so did the home crowd. This was not what they expected. Despite losing five of their last seven games, arsenal have so their last seven games, arsenal have so much quality that it eventually showed. Arsenal have the lead on the stroke of half time. Showed. Arsenal have the lead on the stroke of halftime. Relief to some, disappointment for others. It wasnt too surprising really, 87 places separate the sides and it really showed in the second half. They made it 20, showed in the second half. They made it 2 0, before an own goal from the Linking Captain finish this game. Lincoln fought on as usual but sometimes there is nothing you can do. Brilliantly placed. There would bea do. Brilliantly placed. There would be a bit as well. Aaron ramsey walking the ball home, fittingly given how easy arsenal made this up. Not to be for lincoln city in the end but they have made their piece of history, you sense from the reaction at the end of the game, danny and will never forget that fa cup run of 2017. It was getting a bit rowdy bar. Adam is ok. Manchester city had a comfortable 2 nil win over middlesbrough to book their place in the semi finals of the fa cup. City manager, Pep Guardiola, had said his first season at the club would be judged as a failure, if he doesnt win a trophy. But they are now one step closer to silverware. Ben croucher reports. The modern Middlesbrough Van arrives more in hope than expectation. Too young to remember the last run to wembley 20 years ago. In that time, city have become more accustomed to success. Accustomed to gold also, 13 in three rounds before today. Make that 14 in three rounds before today. Make that 1a in four. In three rounds before today. Make that 14 in four. A disastrous start the middlesbrough. Manchester city already in front. Calls have been harder to come by for middlesbrough, even with the goalkeeper, it could not draw them level. It was more a case of attack versus defence, a question of how, how many and how did he miss that . City even tried to repeat their first did he miss that . City even tried to repeat theirfirst goal, did he miss that . City even tried to repeat their first goal, pull back, not this time. Sergio passed brad but not past the post. Push hard enough and eventually the rearguard caved. Too much time and space. What about that Bread Delivery . Pep guardiola has wembley date for his first series in charge but middlesbroughs wait goes on. We are happy to be in wembley. To be there in the semifinals, we make an exceptional cup. Against Premier League teams, we had to work a lot and we deserve it by far to be there. John, lovely to have you with us. Strong performance from city but another day to forget for middlesbrough. Fighting relegation and now they are out of the cup. Middlesbrough. Fighting relegation and now they are out of the cupm is about scoring goals, they cannot do it. 19 Premier League goals all season. Do it. 19 Premier League goals all season. They have to improve on that or they are going down. Manchester city, a great run, 11 and beading, eight wins in that run. A massive time in their season, monaco now on wednesday, liverpool, chelsea and arsenal in the Premier League. A decisive couple of weeks Manchester City but Pep Guardiola going back to wembley, manager as well. Lets take you now to the Premier League where hull were 2 1winners against swa nsea. Hull were 2 1winners against swansea. Before this, hull had no win in three games. This victory should shift momentum. Win in three games. This victory should shift momentumlj win in three games. This victory should shift momentum. I think it was a must win and the winner was this january signing. Two goals for him. He came off the bench, format goals in his last home game. A forgotten man ever done. They put him in the reserves, they did not give him a locker. People make fun of the transfer when he went to hull but he is turning into a hero for them. There is a chance that they could get out of danger. Still some work to do, the manager happy with the performance today. He is wanting to play well, to stay with the ball. Very good mobility, very good. And very good kicker as well. But you have some moments, a bit nervous, the position was not the best. In the position was not the best. In the second half, we improved. We improved our attitude and spirit and we played a bit more calm, and we scored two goals. I think it is a fair result for us. There was an exciting finish to our next match, ball three, west brom, too. Much of the day. Josh king had an amazing day. West ham scored a minute later. Ended up scoring a goal in injury time to win it and it was a hat trick as well butjosh king. Much needed win for bournemouth, they had not won since new years eve. They were dropping down to relegation danger. This but some on 30 points so close to safety. West ham now on a run of four without a win. Their manager getting back to winning ways, bournemouth. Relief, a positive result. Theres a whole mixture of emotions but the main one is relieved. Quite a journey, that game. It sums up the Premier League this season, the ups and downs are extreme. I thought we played very well at times today, two penalties, they came back at us. We came back at them initially and thankfully we got the winning goal. We are disappointed, especially when you have so many chances and at the end of the day, you score a way to goals, you should get something out of the game. Lets see what that does to the bottom of the Premier League table. Bournemouth looking a little safer after that win. One point hello watford which sums up how far they havejumped. Watford which sums up how far they have jumped. Whole city is still in the bottom three. Hull. Swansea couldve moved, they are still in it, lester is in trouble as well. So close. Sunderland in trouble. Everton, 3 0 winners here. They have got to do better if they are going to wina got to do better if they are going to win a game. Since they were reached 40 points, Romelu Lukaku in great form. Romelu lukaku has now got 19 Premier League goals this season. His best ever tally and still in early march. March. Ronald koeman happy with his teams performance. I think the second half, we control it and i think our defensive organisation, we know the strengths, outstanding today. I am really pleased by the professional way how we got the win today. 0ffe nsively way how we got the win today. 0ffensively but also defensively. Conceding the two goals before half time killed us. Up until that point, we were well in the game. Romelu lukaku were pretty outstanding so than today and that final third, thin lines and they are the ones who have benefited from it today but you cannot fault the players, they have worked really hard, put a lot of effort into this game. Lets ta ke lets take a look at the top of the table. Everton looking comfortable. They are to be hind manchester united. Liverpool played burnley tomorrow. A big chance tojump a bit closer to Manchester City. They need to win that one. John, thank you. Lets bring you news from the scottish premiership, where there were five games today. Aberdeen moved further ahead of third placed rangers with a late goal to beat motherwell. Hearts dominated against hamilton, 40. A Last Gasp Goal from Inverness Caledonian thistle rescued a point at partick thisle, 1 1. Kilmarnock beat ross county, 2 1. And stjohnstone were 2 0 winners against dundee. Staying with scottish rebel, rangers have a new manager. Pedro caixinha has signed a three year deal. He is friends with mourinho. We spoke with our correspondent alistair about what rangers fans can expect from the new man. Pedro caixinha is a name that has come out of left field. Rangers believe hes the man who can take them on. They have been looking for a director of football, they would try to bring a new structure to the club. They have not managed to get the man they wanted that, ross wilson, who is at southampton they have identified Pedro Caixinha as a man they want to be their manager. He arrived in glasgow today and he signed a three year contract. He does know a bit about Scottish Football. I think he will be in charge after tomorrows game against celtic. Tomorrows introduction to Scottish Football is going to be entirely different to anything he has experienced so far. If Pedro Caixinha knows mourinho, we can expect some attacking football. Marino recommended he took the Coaching Course in scotland. They are in fashion at the moment, portuguese coaches. Another doing well at monaco. A mixed history, rangers, with over the coaches. Lets hope the better. I have heard good things about how strong his personality is. It will be interesting to see how he gets on. Thank you. Lets have a look at the other headlines. Elise christie has become the first british woman to win a title at the world short track speed skating championships. Christie claimed gold in the 1500 metres, finishing just 0. 12 seconds ahead of her nearest rival. The win represents an excellent comeback for christie who was contemplating laeaving the sport after being disqualified from all three of her events at the 2014 winter olympics. Not such great news in badminton. After victory against the olympic champions yesterday, chris and gabby adcock suffered a narrow defeat in the mixed doubles semi finals of the all england 0pen. The couple had a match point in the deciding set against their chinese opponents but chris broke a string as they lost the rally. Lu and huang closed out the match 22 20 in the decider. The adcocks equalled their run to the final four at last years tournament. I think we just got really unlucky and chris breaking a string at such a key point is not ideal and it is a hard one to take at the minute. How difficult was it to refocus . Ididnt think. At 20, there were still lots to play for but it is terribly unlucky, this doesnt happen very often and to happen on that one point, that is sport, i suppose. It is really hard to look back on it at the minute and just gutted to have match point, to have been here on sunday would have been amazing. Jess varnish, says any board members, involved in a British Cycling independent investigation into accusations she made over bullying and sexism, against coach shane sutton, must go. It follows a leaked draft report, that claims the organisation, sanitised its own inquiry into the claims. I had absolutely no faith in the investigation from the get go within British Cycling. I have been in their prior long time and i know, i had no faith in it whatsoever. U nfortu nately i had no faith in it whatsoever. Unfortunately i am not shocked by that. Now we just need to, there needs to be changes obviously. These people, they cant be still in there if they have reversed facts. They cant still be able to be there on that board. Team skys Geraint Thomas took second place on stage four of Tirreno Adriatico while adam yates was close behind to move up to second overall in the race.
