Hello! I'm Leah, and you're live with Newsround this Sunday morning.

:00:08.:00:14.

First, the people of Crimea are today voting on whether to rejoin

:00:15.:00:17.

Russia or stay with Ukraine. Most of the people living in Crimea believe

:00:18.:00:20.

they're Russian, and voters are expected to support leaving the

:00:21.:00:23.

Ukraine. But the vote has been called illegal by the government in

:00:24.:00:26.

Kiev and its Western allies, like the United States.

:00:27.:00:29.

Ireland gave Brian O'Driscoll the perfect sendoff last night by

:00:30.:00:31.

winning Rugby Union's Six Nations tournament. The 22-20 win over

:00:32.:00:34.

France in Paris was O'Driscoll's last game in the green jersey. He

:00:35.:00:39.

gave a man-of-match performance to help clinch Ireland's second Six

:00:40.:00:42.

Nations title, and the first since they won the Grand Slam in 2009.

:00:43.:00:48.

Brian, I think the emotions are beginning to spill over now. How do

:00:49.:00:53.

you feel? They are starting to kick in now, and it just feels great to

:00:54.:01:00.

be a two-time Six Nations winner. So many seconds along the years, and so

:01:01.:01:04.

many disappointments here, and it's great to finish on a high.

:01:05.:01:09.

And there's another farewell today - this time in Sochi - as we wave

:01:10.:01:13.

goodbye to the Winter Paralympics. The British team leave the Russian

:01:14.:01:17.

city with six medals, but we want to know what's been your Paralympics

:01:18.:01:21.

highlight? Head on over to the Newsround website now and let us

:01:22.:01:23.

know. Later this afternoon, two sets of

:01:24.:01:26.

football's fiercest rivals will meet in the Premier League. Manchester

:01:27.:01:29.

United host free-scoring Liverpool in the early kick-off. And then

:01:30.:01:33.

later this afternoon, Arsenal take on arch enemies Tottenham. And with

:01:34.:01:38.

a look ahead to that game, here's a special report from number one Spurs

:01:39.:01:43.

fan Jay. My favourite player in recent times

:01:44.:01:48.

has to be Ledley King. Ledley King comes in! Spurs are in the lead!

:01:49.:01:52.

He's a defender, he's fast, he's strong, he's intelligent. He's just

:01:53.:01:58.

an all-round best defender. He is my absolute hero. All right, Jay? What

:01:59.:02:04.

are you up to? I'm just doing a quick section for MOTD Kickabout.

:02:05.:02:09.

Can I ask you a question? Of course. In the North London derby against

:02:10.:02:12.

Arsenal, do you think we have a chance of winning? Our strikers are

:02:13.:02:16.

in great form, which is important, scoring goals. It's a big game for

:02:17.:02:20.

both teams, but I think we can win. What do you think? I think so as

:02:21.:02:31.

well. Good man. And if you missed it last night, Sir

:02:32.:02:35.

Tom Jones and Kylie Minogue had to make heartbreaking decisions about

:02:36.:02:38.

which singers they would take on into the live shows. Popular

:02:39.:02:41.

contestants Leo and Femi missed out, Kylie pinning her hopes on Rachael

:02:42.:02:44.

O'Connor, Jamie Johnson and Lee Glasson. The coaches had to slim

:02:45.:02:47.

down their teams from seven acts to three. Tom also has his final team

:02:48.:02:52.

for the live shows next weekend. That's all from me. Newsround's back

:02:53.:02:54.

right here at 11:55.
