Jesse Lingard, ChrisMD and Sport Relief! MOTD Kickabout

Good morning, footie fans.

We've got an extra special

show lined up for you

today as there is not just a packed

weekend of footie action to look

forward to, but today marks

the start of Sport Relief, too.

All this week right

through until Friday

people up and down the country

are getting active and having fun to

raise money to help

people living tough lies

in the UK and around

the

world, and we're getting involved

here on Kickabout, courtesy of this

lot.

After helping to launch our

Sport Relief milethon send in with

Blue Peter last month,

YouTuber Chris MD takes

on the hat-trick challenge.

Manchester United star Jesse Lingard

answers your questions

and there's a behind-the-scenes

sneak peek at our very own Alex

Scott in training for the Sport

Relief Strictly Come Dancing

special.

Yeah, but do you have

moves like this, Alex?

Sorry.

As well as all the Sport

Relief and excitement,

there's plenty of football to look

forward to it as well, so we'd

better get cracking.

Let's start by checking out

this week's headline

hitters.

Manchester United were knocked out

of the Champions League

earlier this week after a terrible

performance ended in a 2-1 home

defeat by Sevilla.

Whilst Chelsea went out

at the hands of Barcelona

with Messi scoring twice in a 3-0

victory at the Nou Camp.

Better news in the Europa

League though as Danny

Welbeck scored twice

to help Arsenal beat

AC Milan and reach the

quarterfinals.

Mark Hughes has been confirmed

as Southampton's new

manager until the end of the season.

The former Stoke boss replaces

Mauricio Pellegrino, who was sacked

on Monday, with the club one point

above the relegation zone after just

one win in 17.

Can Sparky reignite their season?

And the last spot in

the Scottish Cup semifinals was

decided earlier this week as keeper

Freddie Woodman became a hero for

Aberdeen.

He made a massive three penalty

saves to help them beat

Kilmarnock 3-2 in a shoot out

and set up a semifinal against

Motherwell.

The other tie Celtic meet Rangers,

so some crackers to

look forward to there.

Three penalty saves?

What a night for Woodman.

Back to Sport Relief and as you'll

know if you've been watching

Kickabout the last couple of weeks,

or been online to oversight,

we've been getting involved this

year via our mileathon send

in via Blue Peter.

There's still time to download

and decorate a trainer and tell us

how many miles you're going to do,

but you'll have to be

quick as we need them

in by Wednesday the 21st of March.

Now you can walk, run,

wheel, cycle, scoops.

Now you can walk, run,

wheel, cycle, scoot.

So long as it's getting active,

we want to hear from you.

As you can see, we've already had

some fantastic trainer designs sent

in that we've used to decorate

the studio today.

It looks great, but we need more

to it the million mark.

So if you haven't already, download

your template and get involved.

This guy already has as he helped

launch the Sport Relief

totaliser last month.

Online superstar Chris MD has nearly

four million YouTube

subscribers and has met a whole host

of footie stars from Cristiano

Ronaldo to Kevin De Bruyne.

But as he faced a challenge

for daunting than this?

I very much doubt it.

Let's see how he got on.

Hello.

Hello.

I'm YouTuber Chris Endy and welcome

to my much of the day

hat-trick challenge.

All right, I'm going to go for...

I'm going to pretend I know

which one I'm aiming for and go

for the middle one first.

That's rubbish.

It's hit the side.

Come on, come on.

I've been robbed there.

Right, will go for the

big one at the back.

Come on.

Yes, straight in.

Swish.

Right.

So it's the one at the back done.

That's just abysmal.

That's abysmal!

Can start again?

Right, I want two.

I called two at the start,

so I really want two here.

Come on!

I've been robbed.

Right, I got one, so I'll

go home taking one.

So just the one for Chris,

which puts him here

on our leaderboard.

That means we are yet to see

the challenge completed,

but I'll give it my best shot

when I take it on, don't you worry.

And if you think you've

got the skills to take

on a hat-trick challenge,

why not send us a video

of you nailing some bin shots.

Would love to see you attempting

your very own Challenge home,

or just showing some fancy footwork

and skills like this lot done.

a strong cup of a free kick

for Hatfield undermines

and it's his birthday today,

so happy birthday, Edward.

What a present that free kick was.

Here's Spurs fan Ethan scoring

a last-minute free kick

for Kingsbury Aztec under sevens

and with skills like that,

you might be turning out

for the Spurs before too long.

Talk about using your initiative.

And finally another free kick here,

this time from Rhys.

He is a top scorer with a massive

31 so far this season.

Well done to you, Rhys.

I will tell you what, your favourite

team West Brom needs to sign you up

with that goal-scoring record. The

Baggies have Bournemouth today and

after that face Burnley at the end

of the month, which would be easy as

the Clarets are on a great run of

form with wins against Everton and

West Ham. They are on course for

their Heisele clinicians 1974. On

one of their standout players has

been Jack Cork. We caught up with

him recently to talk about the super

season so far and how the club is

encouraging young fans to get

active.

are younger?

Other any tips you would give to any

children who would want to be,

thing you can do. Always give 100%

and never stopped believing you can

do it.

do it.

What's your manager like to

play under, Sean Dyche?

Who's been

relaxed today. He knows there's a

line between having fun and being

serious he trusts us to do our jobs

on the pitch.

He trusts us to do our

best. Do you think that's why you're

having such a good run?

Yes. Working

hard is many the most important

thing.

It's the World Cup this year.

You have appeared for England

before.

Would you like to get to the

World Cup? I would. It's what you do

when you're younger. You pretend

you're Alan Shearer in the back

garden. It's something I never

thought I would do, but I'm grateful

for the manager to give me the

opportunity.

How does it feel when

you're stepping out for your

country?

Is it different from the

Premier League? Definitely is. I

have never felt that way before.

I've had debuts at clubs and things

like that, but going out in front of

that crowd, it's the pinnacle, the

top. For me it was one of the things

that was my main target and I'm

grateful I got the chance and have

that moment.

A pleasure to meet you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Cheers.

What is your favourite

as you will see. That's the biggest

moment of his young career so far.

I

love your celebrations, especially

with Paul Pogba. Who comes up with

them?

A great question. We don't

really practice, which is why about

in the dressing room, but when it

comes to match day, we'll have

something up our sleeve.

Nice one,

Jesse Lingard. Talking about
