Billing scores second-fastest ever Premier League goal | Arsenal 3-2 AFC Bournemouth



CHEERING And the cherry's already on the charge down the right-hand side. Wattara, early ball into the penalty area, and Billing has put Bournemouth in front! And I had only 11 seconds of my watch! Absolutely incredible start at the Everett Stadium! Bournemouth strike from the kickoff again for the second time in London. Last time it was Fulham. This time it's the Premier League leaders Arsenal, stung from the trading ground. Billing scores 11 seconds in. Whipped into the near post. Sunisi! It is 2-0 to Bournemouth at the Premier League leaders Arsenal! And it is Marcos Sunisi again, his second goal in quick succession.

One corner, one goal, one in each half, and the cherries could be on their way to a huge three points! And the home of the leaders! It is Arsenal 0, Bournemouth 2! At the face of Sakurai, whoips it in deep under the crossbar, Netto punches it away, does well up in the air, headed back towards goal by Smith-Rowe. And down, it's gone in at the end, smuggled in at the back post through a crowd of players. Thomas Pate has picked up the ball and claimed it, and the cherries didn't defend that one very well. Netto's down in the back of the net, but Arsenal may well have hard the deficit pretty quickly there, 2-1. Tried to go past it to the left-hand side, here's Reese Nelson, flashes it across goal, and on the back post, Netto's done amazingly well, but the ball has gone in! He couldn't stop it going over the line, referee looked at his watch. The goal line technology said goal, and Ben White, the man from Dorset, has come back possibly to sink the cherries' hopes of a famous win. Whipped into the near post by the cherries, they head this one away, comes back to Reese Nelson, drives it in! Can you believe it? In the 97th minute, Reese Nelson has arrowed a shot, beyond everybody in black, beyond the last line in grey, and the Emirates stadium has taken off!.

Ukraine War: Is the defence of Bakhmut a distraction?

Ukraine War: Is the defence of Bakhmut a distraction? I'm joined now by the former senior military intelligence officer, Philip Ingram. Good to see you again, Philip. Now, of course, Russian forces have made some advances in recent days in Bakhmut, but on the whole, there's been very little movement on the front line in recent weeks and months. Why is that? Yeah, well, exactly. Day 374 of Vladimir Putin's 10-day Special Military Operation. And the Russians, we keep talking about this spring offensive. They're probing the front lines in different places. Bakhmut will more detail that in a moment, but further north, up around Kramina and in the south, around Donetsk, they're trying to see where their weakness is in the Ukrainian defences. And they're not really finding any. The things that are influencing at the moment, the weather, the ground is softening up. ...

Why the world was wrong about Putin | Analysis

Why the world was wrong about Putin | Analysis People are packing up in their cars. They're getting out of here. A few days before I found myself standing there on the edge of Kharkiv, watching those first tank shells hit into the apartment blocks in Saltyvka, my editor, Louis Emmanuel, had asked me to come up with something to be published on the day of the war, if the war began, explaining to readers why this was happening. And I was hoping it would never be published. It was, and the answer I came up with was, probably in the simple balance of power. I quote it, Russia's military is at its strongest and most capable since the Cold War. Its public finances are also in good order, and Mr Putin may believe he is well placed to bear the costs of the conflict and inevitable sanctions. We'll come back to that in a second. The West is conversely at a moment of historic econo...

Ukraine War: What missiles have Russia fired?

Ukraine War: What missiles have Russia fired? I mean, he caveated his remarks so that he wasn't departing from the official government line, which is that Ukraine makes the calls here when Ukraine's ready, then Ukraine may negotiate. But the fact that he, that comment we were taking out of context, and people will say that Rishi Sunak believes that there has to be a negotiation at, so at what point are we going to lean on the Ukrainians to negotiate? And I think that in Kiev, I think it won't be very, they won't welcome the fact that he said it. It's also, it's just not true that all wars end at the negotiating table. It's a line we've heard from the beginning, right from the start. People should read a book occasionally. The Second World War did not end in negotiation. One of yours perhaps. Yes. The First World War did not end in a meaningful negotia...
