0:00:30 > 0:00:33Let's start with a quick round-up of today's sports stories.

0:00:33 > 0:00:35Manchester City are just two games away from winning

0:00:39 > 0:00:42David Silva scored just 10 minutes in.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48of the season in the second half.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50The win means they can still take the title against rivals

0:00:50 > 0:00:54Manchester United next month.

0:00:54 > 0:00:56And there's been a silver medal for Great Britain

0:00:56 > 0:00:58at the Paralympics in South Korea.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01British skier, Menna Fitzpatrick, who's partially sighted,

0:01:01 > 0:01:08and her guide Jen Kehoe took second place in the super combined event.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10World number one Roger Federer is favourite to win

0:01:10 > 0:01:12a record sixth title at Indian Wells.

0:01:12 > 0:01:16He won his last match in less than an hour to reach the last 16.

0:01:16 > 0:01:18Novak Djokovic's already out.

0:01:18 > 0:01:21Andy Murray and Rafa Nadal are both injured.

0:01:21 > 0:01:23In the women's, Venus has beaten Serena in the latest

0:01:23 > 0:01:26Williams sisters showdown.

0:01:26 > 0:01:31Venus won in straight sets.

0:01:31 > 0:01:34Over in Argentina, thousands of tourists gathered to watch this

0:01:34 > 0:01:37extraordinary moment.

0:01:40 > 0:01:42It's an ice bridge collapsing in a national park in

0:01:42 > 0:01:44the South American country.

0:01:44 > 0:01:47It happens every couple of years when water pressure builds up under

0:01:47 > 0:01:49the ice making it weak.

0:01:49 > 0:01:54The last time it happened was in 2016.

0:01:54 > 0:01:58OK, next up it's the special orchestra making Norway really cool!

0:01:58 > 0:02:01Watch this!

0:02:02 > 0:02:09There's something pretty cool about this music.

0:02:09 > 0:02:12It's being played on instruments made out of ice!

0:02:12 > 0:02:14Brrr!

0:02:14 > 0:02:17It's part of an ice music festival in Finse,

0:02:17 > 0:02:19a mountain village in Norway.

0:02:19 > 0:02:22In winter, it can only be reached by train

0:02:22 > 0:02:26and it is very cold up there.

0:02:26 > 0:02:30But before they can play, they have to carve their instruments.

0:02:30 > 0:02:36They've made ice drums, horns and even a didgeridoo!

0:02:36 > 0:02:38This is an iceophone.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40Good sounding ice is the most difficult part.

0:02:40 > 0:02:44You cannot just go to your freezer, you cannot go to the nearest lake.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47It's kind of a celebration, it doesn't sound like anything

0:02:47 > 0:02:49else you've ever heard.

0:02:49 > 0:02:55People really are surprised when they hear it for the first time.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57In Finse, the temperature can drop below -20 degrees

0:02:57 > 0:03:00and the colder it is, the better it is for playing ice.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03It makes them sound much clearer.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06We don't get to practice.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09So the music, it gets made on stage to the audience.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11And that's what makes it special.

0:03:11 > 0:03:12People are like, what?

0:03:12 > 0:03:14It's possible?

0:03:14 > 0:03:18And it's almost not possible so it's pretty cool that we can do it.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20Right, that's it, next time it snows, I'm going

0:03:20 > 0:03:22to make my own harp!

0:03:22 > 0:03:25Where's the ice?

0:03:25 > 0:03:28Now, you may remember Fiona the Hippo who correctly guessed

0:03:28 > 0:03:32the winners of the Superbowl, the American football competition,

0:03:32 > 0:03:33earlier this year.

0:03:33 > 0:03:38Well, now Russia has named a cat as its official fortune-teller

0:03:38 > 0:03:39for this summer's World Cup.

0:03:39 > 0:03:44Achilles - yep, that's his name - will have two bowls of food

0:03:44 > 0:03:46representing either side.

0:03:46 > 0:03:51Whichever he eats first will be his favourite to win the game.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53Last up, we've all been enjoying the Winter Olympics and Paralympics

0:03:53 > 0:03:56but Martin has found a competition where the people enjoy

0:03:56 > 0:04:01a winter sport, with a wee bit of a difference.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03Boys and girls, we're in Krynica Zdroj in southern

0:04:03 > 0:04:08Poland for Ski Splash!

0:04:08 > 0:04:12Ski Splash is an event that takes place in this town every year.

0:04:12 > 0:04:16And as you can see, it's a real hoot.

0:04:16 > 0:04:1950 participants attempted to ski or snowboard across a pool of very,

0:04:19 > 0:04:24very cold water after riding off a slope.

0:04:24 > 0:04:28Wait a minute, that's a boat!

0:04:28 > 0:04:30It combines some good old sense of humour with fun

0:04:30 > 0:04:34and sports competition.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37The best part about it for me is, the competitors dressed up

0:04:37 > 0:04:38in anything they like.

0:04:38 > 0:04:40Not because it gets them points.

0:04:40 > 0:04:42But simply because they can.

0:04:42 > 0:04:46I know what my next hobby is!

0:04:46 > 0:04:49That's it from us.

0:04:49 > 0:04:52But just enough time to tell you to head to Newsround online

0:04:52 > 0:04:55where you can see why this rescue dog stole the show at

0:04:55 > 0:04:56Crufts over the weekend.

0:04:56 > 0:04:59We're back in just over half an hour.
