hello, and welcome to sportsday — i'm olly foster. really, really good, and then really rubbish — that's jurgen klopp's assessement of his liverpoolside, but they still beat spurs. it's magical miami for mcalaren, as lando norris wins his first formula one race. and kyren wilson has the edge, after the first two sessions of the world snooker championship final. hello there, welcome along. there are just two weeks left in the premier league season, and there's so much riding on every game now. there were three games on sunday, and tottenham's

hopes of a top—four finish are pretty much over after their 4—2 defeat at liverpool. they were 2—0 down at half—time, four down on the hour mark at anfield. goals from mohammed salah, andy robertson, cody gakpo, and a top—corner screamer from harvey elliott. for spurs, despite a late rally with goals from richarlison and son heung—min, that is theirfourth defeat in a row — and they are seven points behind aston villa, in fourth. the win for liverpool mathematically keeps them in the title race, but it does guarantee that they finish at least third, which is more likely. we were really, really, really good — until we were really rubbish. and then, we were 0k again, so that's it. and in that period — obviously, we can't see it in different ways, in the moment when we let them play, you see immediately what they can do. they were then flying and we had that game before — a similar game, they werejust really good, but we controlled them for so long, always

the most important. and, yeah — somebody else can solve that next season. laughter played some really good stuff under pressure to get out and into the front third, but whenever we got to the front third, just nothing came of it. and when that happens, the opposition can come for the ball, and if we were able to create a couple of goal—scoring opportunities for ourselves, we would've sat back a little bit. —— set — — set liverpool —— set liverpool back a bit. our fault in general, but some guys coming at it with some creativity up front, so that helped. tottenham failed to capitalise on aston villa's defeat earlier in the day at brighton. they lost 1—0 to a late joao pedro goal. he saw his penalty saved, but managed to head in the rebound. villa remain seven points clear in fourth. we knew before the game the level of the difficulty of the game, but anyway we deserve to win. the truth is villa today, maybe we are tired of them

because we played them thursday, they had a lot of injuries as well, like brighton. —— maybe they were tired because they played on thursday. we are doing an amazing season, amazing, brilliant. and of course, we are the last, and we have to take to get everything with the last of it. and now, we want to do a good effort on thursday, therefore on monday against liverpool — now is to rest. cole palmer scored his 21st league goal of the season, as chelsea thumped west ham 5-0. they are still pushing for european football next season — they are up to seventh. a nice win, to continue the same feeling, keeping the same feeling from the last game here, thursday — i think a fantastic game,

great performance, so please for the players and the staff because they deserve to feel this way. so happy for them, they deserve the full credit. thousand of leicester fans celebrated the club's promotion to the premier league by lining the streets for an open—top bus parade. the club said it wanted to thank supporters by staging an "unforgettable" occasion. they secured the championship title last monday. the 2016 premier league winners return to the top division at the first time of asking after last season's relegation. ipswich are the other side to gain automatic promotion. chelsea they are right back in the women's super league title race. they beat bottom side bristol city 8—0, with their norwegian forward guro reiten scoring four of their goals. that means that they are now three points behind leaders manchester city, with a game in hand — that's after city lost to arsenal 2—1 at home. they were leading with a minute to go, but stina blackstenius scored in the 89th and 92nd

minutes to dent city's title hopes. sunday's results mean that it will all go down to the final day of the season. couple of other scores in the women's super league — liverpool beat manchester united 1—0. west ham and leicester city drew 1—1. supporters took to the streets of eindhoven shortly after psv sealed their first dutch league title in six years — and the 25th in its history — by beating sparta rotterdam 4—2 on sunday. peter bosz�*s team — that features us players malik tillman and ricardo pepi — has dominated the eredivisie season, losing only one match. it is the first major title for bosz as a coach. he previously led ajax to the final of the europa league in 2017, where they lost to manchester united. lando norris has won his first formula one race. the maclaren driver beat max verstappen into second place to secure victory

at the miami grand prix. norris took the lead after verstappen switched tyres, and he still had to pit when a safety car was deployed midway through the race following a collision between kevin magnussen and logan sargent. that crucially enabled the british driver to remain ahead of the dutchman and he stretched his advantage from the restart, taking the chequered flag for the first time in 110 starts. andrey rublev overcame illness and losing the first set to beat felix auger—aliassime in the madrid open final. the world number eight had lost four matches in a row before arriving in the spanish capital, but came from a set down to beat his canadian opponent. he won a minor event in hong kong earlier this year, but this was his second career masters victory. afterward, he admitted to feeling under the weather all week.

no words, i mean, if you knew what i've been through the last nine days, you would not imagine that i would be able to win a title. but i'm incredibly happy and, i don't know, i don't want to change anything because it looks like i was losing the last six weeks in the first rounds, you know? afterjust two stages, in his first giro d'italia, tadej pogarcher has the leader's pinkjersey. it wasn't starightforward after a minor crash, but no—one could keep up with him as he powered towards sunday's summit finish. nick parrott reports. yesterday's opening stage produced a surprise result with ecuador�*thonatan narvaez beating tadej pogarcher to claim the leader's pinkjersey. today, the giro d'italia's reputation as one of the most entertaining road races was enhanced with yet more highs and lows. at the foot of the final climb, with just six miles to go, tadej pogacar slipped up again,

thanks to a puncher. fortunately for him, it was only a brief setback — within minutes, his uae team—mates had guided him back to the main group. the slovenian has been billed as the star of the show, and he went on to put on a magnificent performance. with two—and—a—half miles to go, he took the lead. by the time he reached the summit finish, his rivals were nowhere to be seen. britain's geraint thomas was there to cross the line, to move up to second overall. but the gap to tadej pogacar is 45 seconds, and likely to increase between now and the finish in rome in three weeks' time. nick parrott, bbc news. the cleveland cavaliers won their first playoff series since lebronjames was on their roster back in 2018, as they edged past the orlando magic in game seven. donovan mitchell led the way for the cavaliers with 39 points, as they rallied from an 18—point first half deficit to eliminate the magic, for whom paulo banchero scored 38 and had 16 rebounds.

the cavaliers will now face the number—one seeds, the boston celtics, in the eastern conference semi—finals. kyren wilson has a five—frame advantage at the midway point of the world snooker championship final, in sheffield. wilson was runner—up to ronnie o' sullivan in the final in 2020 and cruised into a 7—1 lead in the first session. it was tighter in the next session —jones, who is a qualifier, won five frames, but wilson will resume on monday 11—6 up. it's the first to 18. it's not about the score line, but the way the frame was won, and there was obviously a lot of tension in there. some good safety play, and i'm proud of the way i sort of held it together. i had in my head i wanted to get to 11 tonight, after being on seven, so it was just a little small target. so yeah, obviously target achieved. and you've scored heavily across the two sessions, as well? yeah, i've scored pretty well.

you know, it's obviously an attribute to my game — but i'm just loving loving every minute out there, i think the atmosphere is fantastic. as i said to you previously, i'm very blessed and grateful that i've been able to experience this again in front of a packed house, you know, obviously with being robbed of that through covid. i'm loving it, it's great to have everyone there and having a good time. there will be a new name on that trophy at the world snooker championship. you can get that and all the latest sports news at from the bbc sport app, orfrom our website — that's bbc.com/sport. from me and the rest of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. hello. so far, this bank holiday weekend has been a decidedly mixed affair — some spells of warm sunshine, but also some really heavy downpours. we saw some flash flooding

in parts of eastern scotland during sunday. you can see the showers and thunderstorms that erupted here through the day — quite slow—moving, actually, not much wind to push these showers and storms along. 1—2 locations had close to half—a—month's worth of rain in the space ofjust a few hours. we are currently in the grip of this fairly weak and fairly flabby area of low pressure. so not much wind with that low to push the showers around — where they do crop up again on bank holiday monday, they will be heavy, quite slow moving, but with some spells of sunshine in between. this is how we start the day — the southern half of the uk seeing some areas of mist and fog, some sunny spells developing, but some rain across the south east of england and east anglia, northern ireland and scotland keeping quite a lot of clouds still with some hefty showers across some central and eastern parts of scotland. by the middle of the afternoon, parts of east anglia and the southeast seeing outbreaks of rain. elsewhere, through the southwest of england into wales, the midlands, and northern england, that mix of sunny spells and heavy,

possibly thundery showers — those showers quite slow—moving — but the sunniest spot seeing highs of 19—20 celsius. more cloud for northern ireland, but largely dry. still some hefty showers across southern and eastern scotland. further north and west, something drier and, in places, a little bit brighter. now, as we head through monday night, the showers should slowly but surely fade away in most locations. we'll keep some fairly large amounts of cloud, perhaps some mist patches here and there. temperatures generally holding up between 6—10 celsius. now, more showers in the forecast for tuesday, but they shouldn't be as widespread and, on the whole, they shouldn't be quite as heavy. so, mainly fine to start off, some fairly large amounts of cloud, spells of sunshine, too — some of those showers getting going through the day, particularly across parts of england and wales. but in the sunny spots, those temperatures again up to around 20 celsius. that is a sign of things to come because, as we head deeper into the week, high pressure builds a little more strongly. we'll still see frontal systems to the north of the uk,

so a bit of rain at times, particularly across parts of scotland. but further south, it stays mostly dry, some spells of sunshine. temperatures climbing, seeing highs of around 21—22, maybe 23 celsius.
