Swansea v Middlesbrough has just got under way in the Championship. And in the 5pm Serie A game, Juventus lead Genoa 2-0 in Turin. Bremer and Weston McKennie scored the goals.

Thanks John, hello everyone. Let’s start with the latest from the final FA Cup quarter-final at St Andrews. Manchester City lead 1-0 after half an hour, and you will never, ever guess who scored.

We’ve also had the draw for the semi-finals of the competition:

  • Chelsea v Birmingham/Manchester City

  • Liverpool v Brighton

Right. that’s me away, and now Rob Smyth is back in the chair.

Billy Munday was at Portman Road to see Ipswich take a vital step towards automatic promotion, though not without some luck.
