down the tax burden". he was speaking ahead of the spring budget that takes place later this week. pakistan has re—elected shehbaz sharif as its new prime minister after weeks of uncertainty following last month's election, which was marred by vote—rigging allegations. he beat his rival, omar ayub khan, who was backed by the jailed former prime minister, imran khan. now on bbc news, it is sportsday. hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm gavin ramjaun. foden�*s on fire — as man city come from behind to punish rivals united in the manchester derby. frustration for celtic — the defending champions miss the chance to regain top spot in scotland, with defeat today. and arsenal stay in touch at the top in the wsl — with victory in the north london derby at the emirates. also coming up on sportsday...

jemma reekie looks to put the finishing gloss on gb�*s world indoors campaign with gold in the 800m later. hello there and welcome along to sportsday. it was always going to be tough for manchester united against their now dominant rivals, manchester city, in today's derby. a marcus rashford wonder strike had them daring to dream going into half—time, as city missed a string of chances. but pep guardiola's side were on the money in the second half, with a superb strike from phil foden firing them into gear. joe wilson reports. a star centre forward walked out to play. well, between the two manchesters, there are other strikers. united took the direct route
6:32 pm
towards city's goal. whatever point he had to prove, marcus rashford had channelled into this shot. rashford has ripped it in! do not question my commitment. eight minute message delivered. one of those perfect finishes the goalkeeper sees, but still cannot reach. for city, erling haaland was always looming. theyjust had to find him. he was so close, he had to score. seriously. he didn't. the manager's reaction was unmissable. second half, city possession. phil foden might have remembered rashford's shot. he matched it with this. same place in the net, more or less. there was time and space to win. phil foden again. right now in manchester and in england, is that a betterfinisher? well, are we really forgetting erling haaland? he had his chance in injury time, and he
6:33 pm
didn't miss it. so, a huge week ahead for city in the title race, with pep guardiola's side taking on league leaders liverpool next weekend in a top of the table clash. the manager was full of praise for their match—winner phil foden today. he is the best player right now in the premier league. with the amount of things he does, he is unbelievable. i think he loves to play football, he lives for football. top with training sessions and playing games. it is a joy, and of course his work ethic is unbelievable. 0h, oh, i 0h, iwould oh, i would say, defining 0h, iwould say, defining moments, when _ 0h, iwould say, defining moments, when we _ 0h, iwould say, defining moments, when we almost made a breakthrough. we consider— when we almost made a breakthrough. we consider do for a also the second -oal we consider do for a also the second goal was _ we consider do for a also the second goal was a _ we consider do for a also the second goal was a defining moment. then you are disappointed. we have to accept it, are disappointed. we have to accept it. but_ are disappointed. we have to accept it. but it _ are disappointed. we have to accept it. but it is _ are disappointed. we have to accept it, but it is what it is. still, i think— it, but it is what it is. still, i think we _ it, but it is what it is. still, i think we had the opportunity to at

least _ think we had the opportunity to at least get — think we had the opportunity to at least get one point, but also the win was— least get one point, but also the win was possible. burnley�*s awful run in the premier league continued — their hopes of survival come the end of the season seeming more unlikely as the weeks go by. they were beaten 2—0 at home by bournemouth in the day's early game. goals coming from justin kluivert in the first half, with antoine semenyo making the game safe late in the second. burnley have never lost this many home league games in a single season. they're yet to win this year, and are second from bottom still — 11 points from safety with 11 games remaining. what do i want from my team? i want the team to show the energy that they did today, to show that they are willing to fight and do everything for what is a wonderful opportunity, being in the premier league with burnley. that is it, in the end, winning, losing, i've been in the game long enough to know that you are not always in control of that final ball to put it
6:35 pm
in the back of the net, and you have got to rely on your players to turn the corner. that's really important. we were in a good moment, i think we were playing well lately but not getting the wins. probably we need a game like this, probably we didn't play so well. but you know how to win it, you finish with a clean sheet. i think it will give us some confidence for the next games, so very important for us. so, let's take a look at how things stand in the table. at the top, manchester city close the gap to liverpool to just a point, with arsenal still to play tomorrow against the league's bottom side, sheffield united. man united stay sixth, their chase for a top four spot taking a blow. at the bottom, it's looking grim for burnley, only off the bottom courtesy of goal difference to sheffield united. bournemouth now three points clear of crystal palace in 13th. celtic lost 2—0 at hearts,
6:36 pm
as the scottish premiership title race took another twist. the game was punctuated by several incidents that needed var intervention, as third—placed hearts secured back—to—back wins over celtic for the first time in 18 years. it's also trhe first time in six years that both celtic and rangers have have suffered league defeats on the same weekend. adam cottier reports. following rangers' surprise home defeat to motherwell on saturday, celtic had the opportunity to reassert their authority in the title race. and a foul by hearts presented the defending champions with an early chance to take the lead, but a miss from the spot. moments later, a celtic player was sent off after a var check, leaving his manager, brendan rodgers, gazing
6:37 pm
at uncomfortable afternoon in edinburgh. a handball saw hearts awarded a penalty and jorge grant put the home team 1—0 up. hearts's lawrence shankland was the league's leading all skater, and he wasn't to be denied after the break. hearts continued to close the door at the other end, with celtic leaving rangers off the hook, leaving them two points behind their glasgow neighbours. arsenal kept pace in the women's super league title race with a 1—0 win over spurs. alessio russo bagged the only goal in the north london derby to ensure arsenal stayed three points behind leaders manchester city. beth mead got the assist, and is the first player in wsl history to rack up a0 assists at one club. spires are a top side and they play some top football. we knew it was
6:38 pm
going to be tough. coming off the back of international break, we knew we had to get to work quickly, and we had to get to work quickly, and we wanted to remain proud, especially at the emirates. it was tough, but the important thing is the few points. irate tough, but the important thing is the few points.— the few points. we 'ust need to im - rove the few points. we 'ust need to improve a t the few points. we 'ust need to improve a little _ the few points. we 'ust need to improve a little bit _ the few points. we just need to improve a little bit more - the few points. we just need to improve a little bit more to - the few points. we just need to i improve a little bit more to make sure we _ improve a little bit more to make sure we are — improve a little bit more to make sure we are short in some situations. i want to win, i definitely— situations. i want to win, i definitely want to win, but i also understand arsenal away is one of the most — understand arsenal away is one of the most difficult games you can have _ the most difficult games you can have we — the most difficult games you can have. we computed for 97 and push them _ have. we computed for 97 and push them down, — have. we computed for 97 and push them down, that's what i want to see about— them down, that's what i want to see about now _ them down, that's what i want to see about now. we are taking steps right now, about now. we are taking steps right now. and _ about now. we are taking steps right now. and in— about now. we are taking steps right now, and in the long and we are going _ now, and in the long and we are going to — now, and in the long and we are going to be _ now, and in the long and we are going to be able to win these games. big wins in the other matches today — brighton put seven past bristol city, the league's bottom side. a good win for liverpool, too, 4—1 away at aston villa. west ham drew with 4th—placed manchester united. and the ongoing game could see chelsea go back to the top — they're 1—0 up against leicester. you can watch highlights of the weekend action, on the women's football show tonight
6:39 pm
at 23:30 on bbc one and on iplayer. scottish women's premier league leaders rangers got back to winning ways, after two draws in a row. they beat hibernian 3—0, with two goals from mia mcauley. rangers play second—place celtic next in two weeks' time. meanwhile, rivals celtic thumped partick thistle 6—1 to stay four points behind rangers. amy gallacher scored a hat—trick, her third courtesy of a fine solo run from kit loferski. glasgow city beat aberdeen women 8—1 to stay level on points with celtic in the three—horse title race. in america, lionel messi and luis suarez scored two goals each to take inter miami to the top of the standings in major league soccer. it was a thumping win over local rivals 0rlando city. suarez started off the scoring afterjust three minutes — the uruguayan might be 37, but he hasn't lost his ability to finish.
6:40 pm
suarez got a second, before messi's two goals rounded off a 5—0 win. the last one was set up by suarez — as he did many times before when the two played together at barcelona. so difficult to start a game because i change play. my form, how i play. and i think he knows everything about myself, and i think we continue for the club, continue week is most important for us. in contrast to florida — these were the extraordinary scenes at real salt lake city, in utah. heavy snow disrupted the home side's 3—0 win over los angeles fc. the visiting manager called playing in the conditions an "absolute joke". the weather caused a two—hour delay, and play was also suspended shortly after kick—off because of lightning. the curtain comes down

6:45 pm
lebronjames has become the first player in the nba to score 40,000 career points. this is the moment he reached the milestone against the denver nuggets. the crowd gave james a standing ovation during a timeout, and the ball he used to score that historic point was removed from the game. he described it as "bittersweet", after his team, the la lakers, lost to the defending nba champions. i'm never thinking about a milestone when i am up there battling. but when i am up there battling. but when it happens obviously we acknowledge it. obviously, much respect and loyalty to the lakers fan base for showing me the love during the time and. being the first person to macro player to do something is pretty cool in this league, because it is not history and some of the greats that have come through the league. for me, the main thing is always to win, and i

behind this unlikely turnaround, gary 0'neill. he has taken wolves tonight and at the premier league at the time of recording, an improvement on the last couple of years. with 11 wins this season, thatis years. with 11 wins this season, that is as many as they manage all of the last campaign. they have been prolific in front of goal. they are up prolific in front of goal. they are up to a0 already, that are that they have managed at the stage since their return to the top flight. let's chat to charlotte bunker, the times football reporter. remind us where we were in the summer with wolves things went very wrong for wolves things went very wrong for wolves on the eve of the season. just four days before the start of the new season, it was announced thatjulen lopetegui was leaving the club. he was unhappy with the lack of spending, and they were worried that his negative morale was going
