Thursday Morning Sports Update

Keeping you up to date on soccer, rugby, golf and darts.

 

SOCCER

Chelsea could be drawn to face holders Paris Saint-Ger-main in the last-16 of the Champions League - after the French side drew 2-all in their play-off second leg against Monaco, going through 5-4 on aggregate.

Real Madrid progressed by beating Benfica 2-1 - and 3-1 on aggregate - to set up a clash with either Manchester City or Sporting in the next round.

Arsenal could be drawn to play Atalanta after the Italian side booked their place in the last-16 with a dramatic 4-1 win against Borussia Dortmund, which saw them win the tie 4-3.

Despite losing 3-2 on the night, Galatasaray scored two goals in extra time to beat Juventus 7-5 on aggregate and they'll play either Liverpool or Tottenham next.

The draw takes place on Friday.

 

Celtic boss Martin O'Neill hopes they make their Europa League tie with Stuttgart "interesting" tonight.

The Scottish club have left themselves with lots to do in Germany later, 4-1 down ahead of the second leg of their play-off.

 

RUGBY

The Irish rugby squad will step up their preparations for next week's Six Nations clash with Wales later.

They'll hold an open training session with the under-20 team at the Aviva Stadium.

Winger James Lowe is in a race to be fit for the Wales game as he looks to shake off a groin issue.

 

GOLF

Shane Lowry says he "really enjoys playing in Florida" ahead of this week's Cognizant Classic.

The former Open champion is part of the field for the PGA Tour event at Palm Beach Gardens.

He'll tee off at twenty-past-twelve Irish time this afternoon, while Seamus Power is among the evening starters.

 

DARTS

Josh Rock says he's determined to put on a show for his local fans in darts' Premier League tonight.

The Antrim man will take on world finalist Gian Van Veen at Belfast's SSE Arena.

Rock has won in two of their last four meetings.
