Football: Premier League
Chelsea end Arsenal’s title hopes with a thumping win at Stamford Bridge

Premier League leaders Chelsea destroyed Arsenal at Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon in the live game, leaving The Gunners down in fourth-place behind Spurs and Man City. That’s got to hurt! To rub salt into the wounds, Cesc Fabregas scored The Blues’ third.
Rugby Union: Six Nations
Scots upset Irish at Murrayfield

The curtain went up on what promises to be the most entertaining Six Nations tournament yet, and what a start we got. Scotland, given no hope before the off, despite enjoying home advantage, put Ireland to the sword in the tightest of matches. 27-22 was the final-score, after a spirited second-half fight-back from the visitors.
Boxing: Eubank vs Quinlan
Eubank wins a world title
