we'll start with the news that terry venables, a former england and barcelona manager, has died at the age of 80. his family say they are "totally devastated by the loss "of a wonderful husband and father who passed away "peacefully on saturday after a long illness". venables was the england manager at a home european championship in 1996 when football fervour gripped england as they reached the semi finals of the competition. it was their best major tournament achievement in 30 years. our correspondent andy swiss looks back at the life of terry venables. we have a bit more here. he brought the feel good factor back to english football. at euro 96, terry venables took his team tantalizingly close to glory. after dazzling their way to the semi—finals, england's hopes ended in heartache.

but for venables, it was the defining moment of a remarkable career. how old are you? 16. the football is your whole life. yes. he wanted it to go on being your whole life. yes. and so it proved that teenager was soon knocking in goals for chelsea. but it was as a manager that venables truly blossomed. in 1982, he guided queens park rangers to the fa cup final. before a stunning move to barcelona, where he won the spanish league title and earned the nickname el tell. next came tottenham, where he lifted the fa cup before a clash with chairman alan sugar and controversy over his business dealings saw him sacked. but in 1994, england came calling and venables coaching prowess reached its peak. 0h, brilliant. oh, yes.

at a european championship on home soil, his team made it all the way to the semi—finals. carried on a wave of national euphoria. agonisingly, defeat to germany on penalties ended their hopes. but venables had given the fans an experience they and he would never forget. youngsters, of course, don't remember it too much, but they have their fathers tell them all about it sort of thing. but it is, they do come up and they said that is the best feeling we've ever had. and it'sjust the shame of that. that just wasn't to be, turned out all right. but it could have been, it could have been better. but you can't take it away from me. despite his popularity

with the fans, venables business dealings remained under scrutiny. he stood down from england after the euros managed australia and also leeds united before a brief return to the england set up as an assistant to steve mcclaren. but it's as a colourful and charismatic leader that he'll be remembered. and as the man who brought english football one of its most famous summers. gary lineker, who venables had signed to barcelona from everton and also brought him to tottenham when he was the manager at white hart lane, paid this tribute. i'd like to say what an incredibly sad day, this is. it hit me quite hard because i was quite close to terry. he was notjust a coach or a manager but he was a friend. worked with him in television for many years. he was the only manager in my career who would

regularly take me out to lunch where we talk football, and that started at barcelona when he signed me there. an incredibly important person in my football life, it is dreadfully sad and i will miss him a lot. at sunday's game, tottenham's players and fans remembered their fa cup winning manager with a minute's applause. but they didn't have a successful afternoon despite scoring first, spurs lost 2—1 to ason villa. villa now go above them into fourth place in the premier league. everton were beaten 3—0 by manchester united in theirfirst match since being given a 10 point deduction for breaches of the premier league's financial rules. alejandro garnacho opened the scoring with a stunning overhead kick after just three minutes. marcus rashford's penalty and anthony martial�*s strike ensured erik ten hag's men have now won five of their last six league games. magnificent moment, grateful.

we know he has some incredible in him. he showed it here. so very good. but then we went passive and everything went in the game and they were above buffers in the rest of the first half. so i was not happy with that performance. we were so too passive, too low. you bring yourself in trouble. played well. the first half dominated the chance count and made some very good ones. kept them to minimal. so i was very pleased at half time and second half they got a penalty so early, you know, and it's what's the point? i mean, the vr thing is such a simple thing and making it so complex for me, it's bizarre. in spain's la liga, real madrid's rodrygo struck twice and jude bellingham scored his 11th league goal of the season as the visitors enjoyed a 3—0 win at cadiz on sunday to move to the top of the table. carlo ancelotti's side are now on 35 points, one clear of

have won the tournament. we are all really young, we are really hungry to trying to win, win it one more time for our life, but in the other way having this feeling at least once is a really special feeling. the formula one world champion, max verstappen has won yet another race. the season—ending grand prix in abu dhabi and the red bull driver continues to set records. this was his 19th victory in 22 races, making it the most dominant season in the sport's history. ben croucher reports. records shattered. time to enjoy the odd doughnut or two for this year's formula 1 was max verstappen�*s world and no one could live with him. his final victory followed the pattern of most of the other 18, start at the front, scamper off and never looked back. charle le claire did have a sniff on lap one.

it was as close as anybody would get to the dutchman. lewis hamilton got a little too close to pierre gasly, but did seal second for mercedes in the constructors championship. sergio perez and lando norris tangled tyres. he just crushed it. both, made it safely to the end a fair way like the rest behind verstappen, whose 2023 reached new heights. most wins in a row, most wins in a season. most laps led in a season more than double the points of perez in second. a finish with a flourish. a sparkling season for max verstappen. ben croucher, bbc news. francesco bagnaia retained his moto gp world title after winning the valencia grand prix, the last race of the season. the championship was handed to him just six laps into the race after his only rivaljorge martin crashed out on the track. bagnaia took the lead with nine laps to go and held on to claim his seventh win of the year. to cricket and opener yashasvi jaiswal and ishan kishan led india's batting charge to set up a convincing ali—run win over australia in their second twenty20 international on sunday.

at 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, there. if you thought sunday was a cold day, well done. you go to the top of the class. yeah, it was cold across large areas of the uk. really cold as well. temperatures in landrum near inverness only got to 0.4 degrees celsius than november average. meanwhile, here is nine. with the cold air in place, the next question, will it snow this week? stay tuned for the answer to that one. now, it's cold at the moment because we've got this northern latitude blocking this area of high pressure in the arctic is sending cold air our way. and this blocking pattern is with us all week. so it's going to stay cold all week as well. low pressure that's been bringing rain over recent hours through monday will slowly pull away to the near continent. but still some wet weather to come across eastern england with the rain reluctant

to clear here. some showers across north east england and eastern scotland. the best of any sunshine will be in the north west of the uk. but wherever you are, it's going to feel cold through the afternoon. temperatures typically around six or seven degrees celsius. so only really as we go through monday night, that area of low pressure pulls out of the way. skies clear. we'll start to get the winds falling a bit lighter. and we're looking at quite a widespread frost developing once again in the countryside, that takes us into tuesday. and it's a completely different day. loads more in the way of sunshine after that frosty start. but there'll be some showers across northern and eastern areas. and with colder air working in here, we'll probably start to see some of those snow showers working into parts of shetland, maybe even down to sea level across the mainland of scotland. meanwhile, the snow probably still at this stage confined to some modest hills. similar kind of weather picture really through wednesday it's a mostly dry day with sunshine after a cold and frosty start. but again, we've got those showers, some of which will fall wintry across the northeast of the uk. and it's another cold one. temperatures still well below

average for the time of year. now it's thursday. that looks like to be a particularly tricky day with a balance of cold rain or snow. a couple of scenarios, low pressure coming up from the south. we could see some rain turning to snow across the hills of southern england. some wintry showers across the north east of the uk as well. but this area of low pressure may end up being a bit further northwards, a bit more intense. that could bring more areas. snow even into parts of wales and the midlands still got those wintry showers across the northeast. so there's still quite a bit of uncertainty. but thursday has potential. what i do know, though, is it's going to stay cold for a long time yet.

live from washington, this is bbc news. 17 hostages released on sunday return to israel — as hopes build for an extension to the four day truce. i'm going to remain personally engaged to ensure that this is fully implemented and work to extend the deal as well. among the 1a israeli hostages released — nine children, including a four—year—old girl with dual us—israeli nationality. and 39 palestinian detainees have been released by israel — returning to celebrations in the west bank.

hello. in gaza, it's now the fourth, and potentially final, day of the temporary ceasefire. but there are strong signals that the deal could be extended, with several parties — including hamas — signalling they could be open to a longer pause. israel's prime minister benajamin netanyahu said, in a phone call with us presidentjoe biden, that he would welcome a continuation of the truce, if it meant the release of ten more hostages each day. here's president biden after that call. here's president biden, after that call. more is needed, but this deal is delivering life—saving results — critically needed aid going in and hostages coming out — but there is still a structure to ensure that it can be extended, to keep building on these results. that's my goal, that's our goal, to keep this pause going beyond tomorrow, so that we continue to see more hostages come out and surge more humanitarian relief
