so that's the chief concern for manchester city. i think in the position that they are in, they've got a brilliant record away from home, they've won their last 15 away matches. but in the champions league, i detected a little tension about them last week because they know what a big deal it would be. manchester city are favourites, but don't know if they've got a chance. we had those words this week from pep guardiola, saying he would be deemed a failure if by the time he leaves for manchester city he's not got them there champions league title. so if he's saying that, that must be resonating through? that will be a massive _ must be resonating through? trust will be a massive disappointment, off the back of going to leon at this stage last season and off the back of going to tottenham and liverpool in the last eight in the previous two seasons before that. but were it not to go their way tonight, that is a huge disappointment for manchester city. before we let you go off to commentary, will be have three english teams in the semif

in the first half, manchester city were dominant, but could not score. the managers are all but one of the last 14 cup finals and the team sees the big stage and they came so close to something brilliant. with this reprieve, they worked their way into it, they're being led by their caretaker boss and 29—year—old ryan mason. two win the cup and the second match would been extraordinary but after cities pressure, they finally broke through. the port single goal was enough, city had not won the scope for years in a row and as football goes back to the noise that it's missed so much, some things do not change. significant result for manchester city, and a significant day with 8,000 fans at wembley as part of the government's latest pilot ushering in the safe return of fans to stadiums. natalie pirks was at wembley. on the road map to recovery for football, this was a government pilot of course. 4000 fans, and another 4000 from the local area and nhs workers that got a negative test to get injured today. i think a lot of them are saying to me, we do not r

manchester city winning the premier league has felt more when rather than if. the if might be creeping into view. sandwiched in between two big european games, city made a number of changes. when stewart dallas fired leeds ahead, this definitely felt different. if leeds' plan was to protect that lead, this challenge gave them little option. when the referee had the chance to change his mind, the yellow was cancelled, cooper was off. it then became a game of defence versus attack, when rather than if city would score. silver, wide. guadiola, quite. knocking on the door often enough. taurus was eventually let in. the trouble is that pressing for a winner, they were slightly ajar at the back. dallas at the double, city sunk into stoppage time. 11 points from their last six games will be enough to lift that fifth title, even though today's display was a bit iffy. leeds' next match is against liverpool. liverpool have finally won a premier league match at anfield in 2021, after coming from behind to beat aston villa and bring to an end their six matching losing run

erling haaland was playing against manchester city. next season, he might be playing for them, or anyone with money. well, he's borussia dortmund's for now. and anyway, do manchester city really need someone else? here was the kind of slick team attack which has swept by all opponents recently, to give them the lead against dortmund. now, haaland showed his strengths. not quite with the shot, but it was his pass which seemed to turn things. a late equaliser. not quite late enough. still time for city, for foden, for 2—1, and for that feeling. joe wilson, bbc news. chelsea play porto tomorrow off the back of their first defeat under manager thomas tuchel. they lost 5—2 to west brom on saturday... and tuchel�*s revealed that "things got heated" in training the next day with an incident involving team—mates kepa arrizabalaga and antonio rudiger. they are all competitors and want to win training matches, so things got a little too heated up and it was not ok. but the reaction to it, how the guys handled the situation, especially to
