View from the mouth of the tunnel as Kevin De Bruyne prepares to say his Etihad Stadium goodbyes
Incredible scenes around St Mary's at full-time. Saints fans celebrating as though a point edges them towards survival, not just relief at avoiding a share of that unwanted record of the fewest points in a PL season. Dropped points for City significant in the UCL race
Have been told that of BBC Final Score regulars no reporter has averaged fewer goals-per-game this season than I have. In unrelated news, Southampton 0-0 Manchester City at half-time, shots on target: 1, combined xG: 0.5... #BBCFootball
Trip into League 2 for Final Score & BBC Radio 5 Live to see if Walsall can recover a spectacular fumble. They were 12pts clear at the top 3 months ago but kick-off outside the top 3 for the 1st time since September. A point confirms Accrington’s League status
Not without controversy, they should’ve been 2-nil down, but Chelsea now a maximum of 8 points away from another WSL title www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...
Don’t let bright skies deceive you. Strong hat game required with Rachel Brown-Finnis on the Etihad gantry for Manchester City v Chelsea in WSL, live now on BBC 1
Etihad Stadium set for part 3 of a quadrilogy to rival Lethal Weapon, Toy Story and maybe even Kung Fu Panda.
Manchester City v Chelsea in WSL, live on BBC 1, 2pm #bbcfootball
After experiencing their Nations League heroics and first competitive wins, delighted to be reunited with San Marino. They get the honour of kicking off the European Qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup in Cyprus 🌍🎙️
Champions League highlights are hitting the BBC Sport website right now, plus Match of the Day on the way at 22:40. Includes 3 exceptional goals at the Bernabeu

Dramatic change in the view and the weather since arriving at Old Trafford. A meeting of two of the Premier League’s bottom six: something that’s forgivable for Ipswich but unfathomable for Manchester United #bbcfootball
On the high perch at St. James’ Park on a significant afternoon in the race for Champions League football. Newcastle United v Nottingham Forest for @BBCMOTD #BBCFootball
Devastating, ruthless 2nd half from Dortmund in Lisbon. Sporting failed to scored when they were on top, so Dortmund showed them how. Didn’t look anything like the team that had lost 5 of the prev 8 and the return leg should be a formality
Viktor Gyökeres only fit enough for the Sporting bench but excited to see Geovany Quenda, a 17 year-old winger who's been tormenting defences in Portugal #bbcfootball
With Sporting & Dortmund in the Champions League for Match of the Day tonight. It's a measure of how tight the league phase was that Sporting squeezed through on goal-difference but Dortmund, only 4 points better off, were a draw shy of finishing in the top 8 #bbcfootball
Highlights from Blackburn v Wolves earlier. Admirable Wolves professionalism, and Matheus Cunha’s brilliance the reason a cup upset was successfully avoided www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...
Good to get the Puskas Award decided early. Plenty of time to make space in the Brookburn Road trophy cabinet @wdcfc.bsky.social
Chatting about an exceptional come-from-behind win for Newcastle at Southampton on Final Score shortly. Yes, they should win against a side struggling so badly but it was an impressive recovery from the Bournemouth defeat and going behind today
Thoroughly absorbing 1st half at St Mary’s. Southampton played their part, scored with their 1st chance, but since then Newcastle outstanding, looking every bit Champions League challengers and might be even better off than 2-1 up
In position A1 at St Mary’s for Match of the Day.
It’s 122 years since a top flight side was as badly off at this stage of a season as Southampton are. Kevin Keegan was the manager last time Newcastle were on a better run away from home
Unusual scene outside St Mary’s Stadium. Southampton aren’t due to play Ipswich until next week…
A meeting of two of the Premier League’s bottom 6. Not something you’d expect of a January visit to Old Trafford #MUNSOU
Monday Night Track League at National Cycling Centre. GB’s most decorated Olympian, Sir Jason Kenny in the field. Some aspiring youth cyclists and budding local amateurs having a night to remember. The netballers, less bothered…
A year ago Manchester City had just been crowned World Champions, now they’ve got the worst return in the Premier League since Halloween. A chance for Everton to end a 14 year wait for a win here. Highlights Match of the Day later
Huh, so cutting out risk and not presenting your opponents with numerous goalscoring chances makes you significantly harder to beat. Southampton with quite the tactical revelation there
And don’t buy the theory it’s ’what the owners want.’ Surely they want Premier League football, status & revenue, not a style that benefits opponents more than yourselves and fans leaving after 25 minutes
How much evidence does Russell Martin require that his ideological approach either isn’t suitable or he doesn’t have the tools to implement it? Southampton are sleeping walking into the worst Premier League season ever. Derby had more points at this stage of their torrid 2007/8
Morning. A game Wolves and Ipswich will hope is their turning point, not a nail in the coffin. Highlights of 19th v 18th on BBC MOTD later
Milan fortunate to make it 4 wins from 4 tonight v Red Star but with Girona and Dinamo to play they look a good bet for top 8 and straight into the last 16
Appears we shouldn’t have been worried about too many Champions League dead rubbers in January. 22 teams from 3rd to 24th separated by just 5 points. Lovely
Milan v Red Star for Match of the Day tonight. The only previous Champions League meeting at San Siro was 36 years ago. The Milan team that night was so sensational Ruud Gullit & Alessandro Costacurta were only on the bench!
