hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm sarah mulkerrins. a controversial late penalty against newcastle keeps paris st germain�*s champions league destiny in their own hands. proud mary — earps has become the first goalkeeper to become bbc women's footballer of the year. and �*the rocket�* reels off 6 frames in a row to reach the second round of the uk championship.
2:46 am
welcome along to the programme. it was a pivotal night of action in the european champions league and we'll start in paris, where newcastle united — back in the competition after 20 years — needed to avoid losing to p56 to keep their hopes alive. for most of the match, they were winning, until a controversial stoppage time penalty from kylian mbappe levelled the tie. bbc football correspondent john murray has more. newcastle were a matter of seconds away from completing what would have been a memorable double over the french champions. what adds to their agony is the way the equaliser was conceded. a penalty awarded by var when the ball bounced up up to the unfortunate arm, off his body. mbappe stepped up to take the penalty and shot in above the dive.
2:47 am
the newcastle goalkeeper and his teammates had performed wonders to that point to keep out mbappe & co. it had been a textbook away performance in europe as newcastle snatched the lead in the first half hour. when an extraordinary run, a shot and a fumble, teed up isaac to score. they came so close, they are still up against it but the point means newcastle are still in with a chance of reaching the last 16. elsewhere, there was a 5—goal thriller in manchester, where defending champions city came from two goals down to beat rb leipzip 3—2. already through to the last 16, a win would see city top the group. however, lois openda scored twice in the first half for leipzig, before erling haaland got them off the mark after the break — with phil foden levelling it, before julian alvarez won it for them late on.
2:48 am
i don't know what happened with the group but the second game will be here and show again we can make a comeback. we scored early in the second half, 45 minutes was long for the opening and in the end it was not easy because they defended really well, they are strong, the german teams know perfectly. but, yeah, we are there and we will recover tomorrow and then prepare again. 8 games on tuesday, 5—time champions barcelona came from a goal down to beat porto to book their spot in the knockout rounds for the first time in three seasons. celtic�*s european hopes ended with a loss at lazio, substitute ciro immobile�*s scoring twice late on. the win was enough to confirm lazio�*s place in the last—16 after atletico madrid beat feyenoord in rotterdam. manchester united manager erik ten hag has urged his players to stay calm when they face turkish side
2:49 am
galatasaray on wednesday night. anything other than a win will virtually end united's chances of qualifying for the knockout stages of the competition. they're bottom of the group on three points and will be out to avenge their 3—2 loss to galatasaray at old trafford last month. ten hag says they have to keep their composure. don't give them anything that you don't give the referee as well. in that moment that they will take. so you have to stay away from such moments but we know how to do it. you have to play confident and make it your game, so it is not important how the opponent is playing, it is important how we are playing. mikel arteta's arsenal team are top of group b and need just a point against lens in front of their home fans at the emirates to book their place in the knockout stages. the gunners, who sit top
2:50 am
of the premier league, have won three of their four games in this season's champions league after six seasons away. we do want to win the game, for sure, and the opportunities are there for us tomorrow against a team that we know will cause us problems. we have experienced defeat against them so we have the right motivation to put that right tomorrow. england and manchester united's goalkeeper mary earps has been voted bbc women's footballer of the year. earps won the golden glove as england reached the world cup final, while she also helped united finish second in the women's super league. earps is the first goalkeeper to win the award, which was voted for by fans from a five—player shortlist. whoaaah! mary earps, i've never said this to a goalkeeper before but on behalf of the bbc's world service, you are the player of the year, 2023, voted by the public.
2:51 am
how special is this? super special, thank you to everyone who voted for me and i am very, very humbled. really glad that i can be the first goalkeeper to win it. special. the people who are up for the award were very good contenders and there has been a lot of happen this year and obviously we have had the world cup and everything that has gone on with a goalkeeper shirts and the union behind me, it seems, and just incredible support from the public. hi mary, it is peter schneider here. what a great achievement — women's footballer of the year! it doesn't happen very often that a goalkeeper gets that. it does not, you are right. it is always a girl or guy has scores the goals, not the one
2:52 am
who prevents them. you makes manchester united very proud. he is right, not often going to the goal keepers and that is what is really special about hearing these messages from goal keepers, we are all in their father goal keepers to do well. hi, mary, here i go again, congratulating you again! winning the world women's footballer of the year, congratulations but you are not done yet. you know you have to keep going. get some more. enjoy the award and see you soon. that is really special. i am very shocked to hear words like that from incredible people and what they have all achieved in the game is unbelievable. thank you so much for voting for me. to be the first goalkeeper to get their hands on this award is incredibly special. congratulations to mary earps! rory mciiroy has beaten tiger woods to the pga tour's prize for generating the most media interest in 2023. mciiroy was awarded £12 million for winning the top spot on the tour's player
2:53 am
impact programme. woods won it in the two previous years, despite his injury—hit playing schedule. the award was introduced to reward players who generate the most interest in the pga tour, via a variety of different online platforms. tiger woods has revealed his frustration at the secretive nature of the potential deal to bring all the different factions of golf together. the sport was stunned when a framework agreement between the pga tour, dp world tour and saudi arabia's public investment fund was announced earlier this year with a deadline of december 31 for a deal to be finalised. woods last played competitively at the masters in april and the 47—year—old also says he can't wait to test himself at this week's hero challenge. i'm excited to compete and play and i'm just as curious as all of you are to see what happens because i haven't done in a while. i can tell you this, i don't have any of the pain that had at augusta
2:54 am
or before that in michael, no, other parts are taking the brunt of the load so i'm a little bit sore in other areas but the ankle is good. so, that surgery was a success. ——in my ankle. 7—time champion ronnie o'sullivan had to come from behind to reach the second round of the uk snooker championship. anthony mcgill made a brilliant start with a century break to take the opening frame and then going two clear. but that's as good as it got for the scot as ronnie roared back. it's 30 years to the day that he first won this title and he won six frames in a row to take the match. he'll play robert milkins in the second round. ronnie o'sullivan through to the next round, and how has he changed as a player, 30 years after he won his first major as a 17—year—old. ifind it harder to concentrate, maybe, and have the hunger. yeah, for me, playing
2:55 am
competitions, you have to really dig deep but, again, someone like antony is not about playing well but digging deep and out—batting him, and that's hard at my stage so when i play exhibitions and invitation events, you can have a bit of fun but it still serious but you know the guys are not fighting for every ball and you can relax a little bit. and at my age, you want to relax a little bit! and 3—time champion john higgins hit a break of 122 on his way to beating england'sjoe o'connor by six frames to three. higgins play zhou yuelong in the next round after he beat former champion neil robertson. you can get 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.
2:56 am
hello there. well, temperatures will be plunging even further, still, as we head through the rest of the week. there's more snowfall always possible, particularly across the north of scotland, such as here in aviemore, but even potentially to some lower levels as well, with wintry showers feeding into north sea facing coast. there'll be some icy stretches here. but for most of us, it is expected to stay dry. but just temperatures really struggling by day to get out of mid single figures, widespread air frost by night. and that's how we're starting off wednesday morning, with temperatures widely below freezing, maybe as low as —7 to —9 degrees celsius across parts of scotland, a little milderfor the south and the west underneath some areas of cloud, and with a few rain showers around. there'll also be some patches of freezing fog. and where we see those, they'll be slow to lift and clear.
2:57 am
there'll be some more wintry showers just feeding into northern scotland for these north sea facing coasts as well. possibly a few accumulations a little further inland. those showers as far south as lincolnshire, but for most, sunny spells, temperatures not getting much past three to five degrees, but of course, milder in the far south and the west underneath all of that cloud. and that's where we look to find this low pressure system that's been really quite troublesome through the week. but now, it does look much more likely that this is going to be falling as rain towards the channel coast as we head through thursday, could possibly lap onshore at times given more clouds and outbreaks of rain towards the south coast, and maybe a bit of wintryness over the tops of the moors in the south or west with the elevation. further north, though, some sunny spells again, wintry showers for north sea facing coast. temperatures once more unlikely to make it much past three to five degrees celsius. let's take a look at friday because not a lot is set to change. we've got more of an easterly wind possibly feeding some showers through parts of the thames estuary, over the downs, perhaps the higher ground here. but for the most part, i think it should stay dry. again, there'll be some sunny spells and quite a bit of added wind chill as well. as you can see from
2:58 am
the temperature anomaly map, temperatures are well below the seasonal average, marked in the blue here. all of that cold air just sweeping down from scandinavia. and there's no real improvement in the temperatures, either, as we head through the weekend and into the start of next week. still feeling bitterly cold. here's the temperature outlook for our capital cities, possibly a bit of wintryness on saturday night, again, into sunday further south. bye for now.
