A 12-hour attack on a major hotel
in the Afghan capital ends | 0:00:05 | 0:00:08 | |
with the deaths of 19 people. | 0:00:08 | 0:00:15 | |
14 of the dead were foreigners,
thought to have been | 0:00:16 | 0:00:18 | |
deliberately targeted. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:20 | |
The Taliban says it
carried out the attack. | 0:00:20 | 0:00:28 | |

The authorities in Afghanistan now
say that 14 foreigners and four | 0:01:13 | 0:01:17 | |
Afghan nationals were killed
in an attack on an international | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
hotel in the capital Kabul. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:22 | |
After heavy fighting
that lasted 12 hours, | 0:01:22 | 0:01:30 | |
Afghan special forces took control
of the Intercontinental Hotel, | 0:01:34 | 0:01:36 | |
killing the gunmen who stormed
it yesterday evening. | 0:01:36 | 0:01:38 | |
More than 150 people managed
to escape, or were rescued. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
The Taliban says it
carried out the attack. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:42 | |

We are in the area, you can see the
Hotel Intercontinental on the hill | 0:02:26 | 0:02:33 | |
in Kabul, and as you can see part of
the hotel was burned, and black soot | 0:02:33 | 0:02:38 | |
has blackened the southern part of
the hotel. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
More than 150 people,
including some foreigners, | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
were inside yesterday evening,
when gunmen burst | 0:02:43 | 0:02:44 | |
in and opened fire. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:46 | |
Eyewitnesses said they
were after foreigners. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:53 | |
TRANSLATION: | 0:02:55 | 0:03:01 | |
They killed ordinary
people and officials, | 0:03:01 | 0:03:02 | |
they were also targeting foreigners. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
These images, filmed by local TV,
showed people escaping by climbing | 0:03:04 | 0:03:13 | |
down bed sheets that
they'd tied to balconies. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:15 | |
This telecoms engineer fell
from the sixth floor | 0:03:15 | 0:03:17 | |
as he tried to get away. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:19 | |
TRANSLATION: When the sixth floor
caught fire this morning, | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
my roommate told me either
burn or escape. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:24 | |
my roommate told me
to either burn or escape. | 0:03:24 | 0:03:29 | |
I got a bed sheet and tied
it to the balcony. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
I tried to come down,
but I was heavy, and my arms | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
were not strong enough. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:36 | |
I fell down, and injured
my shoulder and leg. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:38 | |
This has been probably the deadliest
attack on foreign civilians | 0:03:38 | 0:03:41 | |
in Kabul since the US
invasion of Afghanistan. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:42 | |
We've been told that the attackers
spoke local languages, | 0:03:42 | 0:03:47 | |
and shouted at Afghans to be
separated from foreign | 0:03:47 | 0:03:49 | |
nationalities. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:52 | |
This sustained and complex assault
will prompt urgent questions | 0:03:52 | 0:03:54 | |
as to how the gunmen got through. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |

Ukip's National Executive Committee
has backed a vote of no confidence | 0:04:03 | 0:04:07 | |
in the party leader Henry Bolton,
as he faces further questions | 0:04:07 | 0:04:10 | |
over his personal life. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:12 | |
After a brief relationship
with Jo Marney - whose texts | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
about Meghan Markle became public -
he says his personal life shouldn't | 0:04:15 | 0:04:17 | |
affect his political career. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:20 | |
The party membership will now be
asked to vote on his future. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:23 | |
Here's our political
correspondent Ben Wright. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:30 | |
I'm not making any comment. Shortly
before you get's top brass met to | 0:04:30 | 0:04:34 | |
discuss their Bellego leader's fate,
Henry Bolton came out fighting. You | 0:04:34 | 0:04:39 | |
could say at that point the National
Executive Committee of my own body | 0:04:39 | 0:04:43 | |
don't have confidence in me and I
should stand down. I could do but I | 0:04:43 | 0:04:47 | |
went. It is his fleeting
relationship with 25-year-old Jo | 0:04:47 | 0:04:54 | |
Marney that has got notice. Last
week he dropped his new girlfriend, | 0:04:54 | 0:04:58 | |
after it emerged she had sent
reportedly racist text messages | 0:04:58 | 0:05:02 | |
about Prince Harry's fiance, Meghan
Markle, but the two of them were | 0:05:02 | 0:05:06 | |
then spotted out at a London bar.
Are we now talking about this | 0:05:06 | 0:05:10 | |
leadership thing being a moral
court, as to the state of my | 0:05:10 | 0:05:15 | |
marriage and personal relationships?
What is important to the 17.4 | 0:05:15 | 0:05:19 | |
million people who voted to leave
the European union is that this | 0:05:19 | 0:05:23 | |
country gets back its independence
from Brussels and we can move | 0:05:23 | 0:05:25 | |
forward on that basis. Henry Bolton
became the fourth Ukip leader in a | 0:05:25 | 0:05:30 | |
year, and promised to bring fresh
focus to the fractious and | 0:05:30 | 0:05:34 | |
floundering party, but even some of
its leading figures think it could | 0:05:34 | 0:05:38 | |
now be curtains for Ukip. If we have
a situation where we were wiped out | 0:05:38 | 0:05:42 | |
in the county council elections and
then in the general elections, if we | 0:05:42 | 0:05:46 | |
wiped out again in the district
elections too, then maybe people | 0:05:46 | 0:05:50 | |
will have to get around the table
and say is the electric trying to | 0:05:50 | 0:05:54 | |
tell us something, and is that thank
you very much and good night? | 0:05:54 | 0:05:57 | |
Earlier this the Ukip National
executive agreed to have a meeting | 0:05:57 | 0:06:02 | |
about their leader 's recent antics.
Today's Ukip meeting has been held | 0:06:02 | 0:06:07 | |
in huge secrecy and after a lot of
digging we found out it is being | 0:06:07 | 0:06:10 | |
held here in the office of the Ukip
general secretary, Paul Oakley, a | 0:06:10 | 0:06:15 | |
barrister. This meeting will
determine possibly Henry Bolton's | 0:06:15 | 0:06:18 | |
fate. He went in it insisting he
would not quit but it is clear that | 0:06:18 | 0:06:23 | |
many want him to go. And after three
hours of talks coming Ukip 's Mac | 0:06:23 | 0:06:28 | |
chairman emerged with the verdict.
They decided to take a vote of | 0:06:28 | 0:06:33 | |
no-confidence in Henry Bolton as our
leader. That vote was carried | 0:06:33 | 0:06:38 | |
unanimously with the exception of
Henry Bolton himself will stop that | 0:06:38 | 0:06:43 | |
doesn't mean Henry Bolton is forced
to go today and there will now be an | 0:06:43 | 0:06:46 | |
emergency general meeting of party
members to decide his fate. Ben | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |

An eight-year-old girl, who died
after being found with stab wounds, | 0:06:54 | 0:06:57 | |
near Walsall, has been named
by West Midlands Police | 0:06:57 | 0:06:59 | |
as Mylee Billingham. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:00 | |
A 54-year-old man has been arrested. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:02 | |
Liz Copper reports. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:06 | |
Eight-year-old Mylee
Billingham who's died | 0:07:06 | 0:07:08 | |
in what police are describing
as a tragic set of circumstances. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:11 | |
Floral tributes have been placed
outside the bungalow in Brownhills | 0:07:11 | 0:07:13 | |
where police were called last night. | 0:07:13 | 0:07:15 | |
Neighbours described their shock,
as officers arrived. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:20 | |
I never in my wildest dreams
would ever see down the street... | 0:07:20 | 0:07:23 | |
Everybody was shocked, because,
down here, it's quiet, | 0:07:23 | 0:07:25 | |
you know what I mean? | 0:07:25 | 0:07:27 | |
A 54-year-old man has been arrested
in connection with this incident. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:31 | |
He was taken to hospital with a stab
wound to the stomach, | 0:07:31 | 0:07:34 | |
and his condition is
described as critical. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:39 | |
As forensics experts
continue their enquiries, | 0:07:39 | 0:07:42 | |
police say they are treating this
as a domestic incident, | 0:07:42 | 0:07:44 | |
and aren't looking for
anybody else in connection | 0:07:44 | 0:07:46 | |
with the investigation. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:48 | |

Turkish troops have crossed
the border into northern Syria | 0:07:58 | 0:08:00 | |
in a significant escalation
of their battle against | 0:08:00 | 0:08:02 | |
a Kurdish militia. | 0:08:02 | 0:08:03 | |
The Turkish president has said he
hopes the offensive will be brief. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:06 | |
The Kurdish YPG militia is backed
by the United States | 0:08:06 | 0:08:08 | |
but viewed by Turkey
as a terrorist organisation. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:10 | |
Our correspondent Mark Lowen sent
this report from the border area. | 0:08:10 | 0:08:17 | |
As if Syria needed more of this.
Artillery fire from Turkey, | 0:08:17 | 0:08:24 | |
launching a new ground and air
offensive. It's called operation | 0:08:24 | 0:08:28 | |
olive branch, though it's anything
but a gesture of peace. From the | 0:08:28 | 0:08:33 | |
skies, Turkish F-16s struck
yesterday, their target, the Syrian | 0:08:33 | 0:08:38 | |
Kurdish militia known as the YPG.
Turkey sees them as terrace, linked | 0:08:38 | 0:08:42 | |
to the outlawed Kurdish militants,
the PKK, and it once them pushed | 0:08:42 | 0:08:47 | |
back from the border town of Afrin.
Turkey's president has his own | 0:08:47 | 0:08:52 | |
troops fighting for their hero, and
with elections next week -- next | 0:08:52 | 0:08:57 | |
year, war rallies his Conservative
supporters. TRANSLATION: This is a | 0:08:57 | 0:09:03 | |
national struggle, and in this
national struggle we will crush | 0:09:03 | 0:09:06 | |
anyone who stands against us. | 0:09:06 | 0:09:12 | |
anyone who stands against us. But
the YPG has powerful friends, they | 0:09:12 | 0:09:14 | |
are trained and armed by the US.
That has infuriated Turkey, which | 0:09:14 | 0:09:19 | |
says the Americans have chosen
terrace over their Nato ally. In the | 0:09:19 | 0:09:24 | |
hills beside the border, we found a
further build-up, as the offensive | 0:09:24 | 0:09:28 | |
shows no further sign of ending.
Every few minutes you hear the thud | 0:09:28 | 0:09:32 | |
of an artillery strike. Turkey has
clearly committed militarily to this | 0:09:32 | 0:09:36 | |
operation and has widespread popular
support here, but if the Turks | 0:09:36 | 0:09:40 | |
suffer losses or civilian casualties
grow, that could change. And the | 0:09:40 | 0:09:45 | |
risk is clear. This border town was
hit by a rocket, said to be from the | 0:09:45 | 0:09:50 | |
YPG, killing one and injuring more.
Turkey is on dangerous ground, and a | 0:09:50 | 0:09:54 | |
long, costly offensive is only just
beginning. Mark Lowen, BBC News on | 0:09:54 | 0:10:00 | |

Thousands of people are expected
to turn out in Las Vegas shortly | 0:10:02 | 0:10:05 | |
for the main American rally
on a weekend of women's marches, one | 0:10:05 | 0:10:08 | |
year on from those that took place
as President Trump was inaugurated. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:10 | |
Demonstrations have already
been held in London, | 0:10:10 | 0:10:12 | |
where hundreds gathered outside
Downing Street, and in Paris. | 0:10:12 | 0:10:15 | |
The message at both -
time is up on sexual | 0:10:15 | 0:10:18 | |
harassment and abuse. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:19 | |
Let's join our correspondent
Rajini Vaidyanathan in Las Vegas. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:26 | |
What are you expecting there? Well,
if last year was all about | 0:10:27 | 0:10:31 | |
protesting the fact Donald Trump had
just taken office, then this year is | 0:10:31 | 0:10:35 | |
all about protesting his policies in
his first year. Now many women here | 0:10:35 | 0:10:38 | |
say they are concerned about his
agenda on issues like immigration, | 0:10:38 | 0:10:43 | |
health care and reproductive rights,
which they say adversely impacts | 0:10:43 | 0:10:48 | |
women. Others here say that in the
wake of the meat to moment, they | 0:10:48 | 0:10:52 | |
want changes. Many say they are
survivors of sexual harassment and | 0:10:52 | 0:10:56 | |
violence. If last Joe was a rallying
cry, then this year is all about | 0:10:56 | 0:11:05 | |
getting things done. So one -- if
last year, is getting women to | 0:11:05 | 0:11:10 | |
register to vote and perhaps even
run for office. But don't forget, | 0:11:10 | 0:11:14 | |
Donald Trump won with a majority of
white women voters. There are plenty | 0:11:14 | 0:11:19 | |
of women in America who think he is
doing a good job, so this event is | 0:11:19 | 0:11:22 | |
of course a reminder that in America
women's rights and women's issues | 0:11:22 | 0:11:26 | |
are a very divisive topic here. | 0:11:26 | 0:11:29 | |
Extreme weather has affected several
parts of the UK today, | 0:11:29 | 0:11:31 | |
with flooding and mudslides in South
west England and snow and ice | 0:11:31 | 0:11:34 | |
causing problems elsewhere. | 0:11:34 | 0:11:35 | |
The Met Office has issued yellow "be
aware" warnings for Scotland, | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
north Wales, most of England
and Northern Ireland. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:40 | |
Phil Bodmer reports. | 0:11:40 | 0:11:46 | |
After the snow came the rain, and
with it, flooding. The south-west | 0:11:48 | 0:11:53 | |
bearing the brunt. Police say a
number of roads are affected by | 0:11:53 | 0:11:59 | |
flood water and mud slides, like
here in Mudeford, North Devon. At | 0:11:59 | 0:12:05 | |
the Jack Russell in at swing bridge
near Barnstaple, they were surveying | 0:12:05 | 0:12:08 | |
the damage caused by the flooding.
The kitchen's just as bad. We've | 0:12:08 | 0:12:15 | |
turned everything. Emergency
services helped others. This flood | 0:12:15 | 0:12:20 | |
water rose in Barnstaple and Kuhn
Martin. In Scotland, two climbers | 0:12:20 | 0:12:26 | |
were airlifted to safety in the
Highlands. The pair were winched to | 0:12:26 | 0:12:30 | |
safety from 3000 feet after a night
on the mountain in Glencoe. Glasgow | 0:12:30 | 0:12:35 | |
airport closed for a brief period
this afternoon, so that the runway | 0:12:35 | 0:12:40 | |
could be cleared, after some very
heavy snow. Well, tonight, much of | 0:12:40 | 0:12:46 | |
Britain remains in winter's icy
grip. Here in Leeds, gritting teams | 0:12:46 | 0:12:50 | |
have been working nonstop to keep
the road network sorted, with | 0:12:50 | 0:12:54 | |
temperatures hovering around 0
degrees. Northern England also | 0:12:54 | 0:12:58 | |
experienced heavy snow. This was
further land in South Yorkshire. In | 0:12:58 | 0:13:05 | |
Sheffield, drivers left their cars
at home. With forecasters predicting | 0:13:05 | 0:13:10 | |
milder conditions ahead, there may
be some better news for commuters | 0:13:10 | 0:13:13 | |
next week. Phil Bodman, BBC News. | 0:13:13 | 0:13:17 | |
A former Premier League
footballer is about to become | 0:13:17 | 0:13:19 | |
president of the West African
nation of Liberia. | 0:13:19 | 0:13:21 | |
George Weah - who played for Chelsea
and Manchester City - | 0:13:21 | 0:13:24 | |
told the BBC he was ready to meet
the expectations of his people. | 0:13:24 | 0:13:27 | |
He will be sworn in tomorrow. | 0:13:27 | 0:13:28 | |
His victory is the latest
extraordinary chapter in Liberia's | 0:13:28 | 0:13:31 | |
emergence from the horrors
of civil war. | 0:13:31 | 0:13:35 | |

A fanfare for the people's man
who rose from the slums to become | 0:13:39 | 0:13:42 | |
an international football star,
and now president of his country. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:50 | |
How are you doing? | 0:13:52 | 0:13:53 | |
George Weah is the face
of a changing nation. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:55 | |
For the first time in over 70 years,
power is being transferred between | 0:13:55 | 0:13:58 | |
democratically elected leaders. | 0:13:58 | 0:14:02 | |
Can you possibly be as successful
a president as a footballer? | 0:14:02 | 0:14:05 | |
Well, you only look at me
as a former footballer, | 0:14:05 | 0:14:07 | |
but I am a human being. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:10 | |
I strive to be excellent,
and I can be successful. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:18 | |
COMMENTATOR: George Weah,
he has one to contend with, | 0:14:22 | 0:14:25 | |
he plays a 1-2, George Weah! | 0:14:25 | 0:14:26 | |
Today he was leading a team of
friends against an army selection. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:29 | |
And still scoring. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:30 | |
It was in Europe, playing for teams
like Chelsea and AC Milan, | 0:14:30 | 0:14:33 | |
that he became a legend. | 0:14:33 | 0:14:34 | |
Fifa Footballer of the Year. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:37 | |

live below the poverty line. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:48 | |
In Claratown, the slum
where he grew up, they are hoping | 0:14:48 | 0:14:50 | |
he will bring jobs,
health care, housing. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:55 | |
When you come here to the streets
where George Weah grew up, | 0:14:55 | 0:14:58 | |
the scale of problems facing Liberia
is very clear. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:01 | |
For any kind of meaningful change
to take place, peace is essential, | 0:15:01 | 0:15:06 | |
and this is a generation that has
grown up without knowing war, | 0:15:06 | 0:15:08 | |
in a country that was once
a byword for anarchy. | 0:15:08 | 0:15:15 | |
In 14 years of war, a quarter
of a million people were killed. | 0:15:15 | 0:15:23 | |
Child soldiers like Joseph Duo
became symbols of pitiless violence. | 0:15:24 | 0:15:27 | |
Today, he's one of those looking
to George Weah in hope. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:35 | |
Like his nation, Joseph
is scarred by the past | 0:15:38 | 0:15:40 | |
but determined not to repeat it. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:43 | |
Doing homework with his children,
Joseph's life challenges those | 0:15:48 | 0:15:50 | |
who would write off a nation,
even a continent, has failed. | 0:15:50 | 0:15:53 | |
who would write off a nation,
even a continent, as failed. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:55 | |
What do you hope George
Weah can do for you? | 0:15:55 | 0:16:02 | |
We hope he will design programmes
and bring investors, | 0:16:02 | 0:16:04 | |
Joseph tells me, so there will be
jobs, and we can have a better | 0:16:04 | 0:16:08 | |
Liberia than before. | 0:16:08 | 0:16:09 | |
Expectations are high. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:10 | |
Can George Weah possibly
meet them, I asked? | 0:16:10 | 0:16:12 | |
Whether or not I am going
to meet the expectations, | 0:16:12 | 0:16:14 | |
because the one thing,
when people love you, | 0:16:14 | 0:16:16 | |
you have to strive for them. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:18 | |
The Liberians love me,
for what I have done before | 0:16:18 | 0:16:20 | |
in my life, and to make sure that,
OK, I am going to do it again. | 0:16:20 | 0:16:28 | |
Football teaches that
you can't succeed alone, | 0:16:28 | 0:16:30 | |
and the new president has
the people on-side. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:34 | |
But, more than anything now,
George Weah is going | 0:16:34 | 0:16:36 | |
to need their patience. | 0:16:36 | 0:16:40 | |

With all the sport, here's
Lizzie Greenwood Hughes | 0:16:42 | 0:16:44 | |

Hello, good evening. England's
cricketers have bounced back from | 0:16:49 | 0:16:52 | |
their comprehensive Ashes defeat by
winning the one-day series against | 0:16:52 | 0:16:55 | |
Australia with two games to spare.
Under the guidance of Eoin Morgan, | 0:16:55 | 0:17:01 | |
England's short form game continues
to thrive. Yet recently the captain | 0:17:01 | 0:17:06 | |
himself has struggled for runs. His,
one of six wickets that fell, with | 0:17:06 | 0:17:11 | |
the score looking unfavourable for
the tourists. Jos Buttler and Chris | 0:17:11 | 0:17:14 | |
Woakes Sciustree and change that, as
the pair dominated proceedings. -- | 0:17:14 | 0:17:19 | |
soon change that. The final over of
the innings delivered a half-century | 0:17:19 | 0:17:24 | |
for Woakes, and all three figures
Reading Buttler. 303 sets victory, a | 0:17:24 | 0:17:30 | |
target Aaron Finch fancy chasing
down, showing authority attack. But | 0:17:30 | 0:17:35 | |
the real power on the field lies
elsewhere. The umpires wanted to | 0:17:35 | 0:17:38 | |
check their decision to give Steve
Smith out. Replays were somewhat | 0:17:38 | 0:17:42 | |
inconclusive. But their opinion was
the one that mattered, not Smith's. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:48 | |
His team still kept up the attack.
Marcus Stoinis set up a nervy end, | 0:17:48 | 0:17:53 | |
but when he departed, England made
sure their winning run would | 0:17:53 | 0:17:57 | |
continue. Kyle Edmund says you have
to believe, after reaching his first | 0:17:57 | 0:18:06 | |
Grand Slam quarterfinal. The British
and the two came from a set down to | 0:18:06 | 0:18:09 | |
make it to the last eight of the
Australian Open tennis. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:16 | |
Carrying the hopes of a nation is no
easy task, but in the absence of | 0:18:16 | 0:18:20 | |
Andy Murray, Britain has a new flag
bearer. Kyle Edmund Fozz eyes has | 0:18:20 | 0:18:27 | |
been steady, his form here
spectacular. They did seem that was | 0:18:27 | 0:18:31 | |
about to change when against Andreas
Seppi, he lost the opening set and | 0:18:31 | 0:18:34 | |
went down a break of serve in the
second. He was however quick to | 0:18:34 | 0:18:39 | |
respond, a switch of shoes
coinciding with a change in | 0:18:39 | 0:18:42 | |
fortunes, and there was no looking
back. A decade Seppi's Junior, yet | 0:18:42 | 0:18:49 | |
Edmund is the higher ranked and soon
the Gulf in age and quality became | 0:18:49 | 0:18:53 | |
apparent. Both men were bidding to
reach a made in Grand Slam | 0:18:53 | 0:18:57 | |
quarterfinal, though only one had
the power and poised to get there. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:01 | |
Edmund becoming the first British
man other than Murray to make the | 0:19:01 | 0:19:05 | |
last eight in Melbourne since 1985.
Hopefully we have more British here | 0:19:05 | 0:19:10 | |
in the future, so, yeah, for me
personally I am very happy to get | 0:19:10 | 0:19:14 | |
through and keep doing my best, and
I know people at home are waking up | 0:19:14 | 0:19:17 | |
at silly hours in the morning, so I
am just grateful for that. Edmonds | 0:19:17 | 0:19:22 | |
now faces the world number three,
Grigor Dimitrov. Whatever the | 0:19:22 | 0:19:26 | |
outcome, Britain appears to have a
new start to celebrate. Watford have | 0:19:26 | 0:19:33 | |
blamed Everton's interest in manager
Marco Silva as their reason for | 0:19:33 | 0:19:37 | |
sacking him this morning. They are
expecting to appoint Javi Gracia | 0:19:37 | 0:19:42 | |
tomorrow. Meanwhile, Southampton are
still in the bottom three. Harry | 0:19:42 | 0:19:48 | |
Kane scored the Spurs goal and only
needs one more to reach 100 in the | 0:19:48 | 0:19:55 | |
Premier League or someone very late
goal at Tynecastle gifted Hearts a | 0:19:55 | 0:20:00 | |
place in the Scottish Cup next round
against Hibs. Plenty more sport on | 0:20:00 | 0:20:06 | |
the website, including how Saracens
scraped into the quarterfinals of | 0:20:06 | 0:20:09 | |
the European Champions Cup but for
me, for now, goodbye. | 0:20:09 | 0:20:15 |
