We start with Football and in the English Premiership – Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger refused to blame goalkeeper Lucasz Fabianski for his side's 2-1 overnight defeat at Blackburn.
Wenger has instead chose to accuse Rovers of "unfair" tactics.
Elsewhere - Steven Gohouri's dramatic stoppage-time equaliser stole a point for Wigan and confirmed Hull's relegation from the Premier League.
The Latics drew 2-all with Hull who now complete the relegated trio together with Porstmouth and Barnsley.
