About this episode
Manchester United remain bottom of Group A in the Champions League after throwing away a 3-1 lead against Galatasaray to draw 3-3 in Turkey. The result means that Manchester United must beat Bayern Munich on the final matchday and hope Galatasaray draw against FC Copenhagen in order to qualify. Elsewhere, Arsenal eased to the last 16 as group winners by beating Lens 6-0 at the Emirates after a brilliant first half display. Also, we hear from Danny Murphy on how to fix the handball law as VAR continues to hit the headlines. We look ahead to another night of European football with Brighton, Liverpool, West Ham and Aston Villa all in action and finally, Andy Goldstein and Darren Bent were joined by UFC Heavyweight Champion Tom Aspinall on Drive.
