Football Ramble

The Azteca, one of football's mystic powers, has been conquered by Thomas Tuchel and his merry band of fine England men.

Today, Marcus, Luke and Vish are here alongside their giddy aunts to relive last night’s action. It was a joyous evening where Jude Bellingham went full Zinedine Zidane and Harry Kane went full Darren Cann. Jump in, the water’s warm.

After a long 40 years, England are heading back to the Azteca! Has anyone mentioned the altitude yet?

On today’s preview show, Marcus and Vish are on hand to discuss team selection, game approach and little tumescence-assisting blue pills.

Plus, we've got questions about the security measures around England’s hotel and gravitational time dilation in high-up places. Could Tommy Tuchel’s lads be facing a team of Benjamin Buttons?

Paraguay put in a generational display of housery in their loss to France last night. It was one for real anarchists to enjoy (aka Pete Donaldson).

Marcus, Vish and Pete wonder whether France should be concerned at all after this game. We also say goodbye to our old friend Jesse Marsch after Canada's loss to Morocco. Plus, Donny brings a very special gift for the lads to enjoy.

Cape Verde, take a bow gentlemen. The curtain falls on their first World Cup appearance, but take nothing away from them - they have been outstanding this tournament. So to give them the credit they truly deserve, on today's show we discuss a big fluffy dog wearing ear defenders in the stands.

Pete tells Luke and David why he isn't convinced those ear defenders were actually covering that dog's ears. Plus, the remarkable size of little Mat Ryan & a chaotic five hours for our England boys.

For our collective sins, Cristiano Ronaldo and his Portugal bros have made it to the round of 16. Cheers Snicko.

Luke tells Marcus and Pete why he simply cannot fathom the idea that Croatia's Igor Matanović touched the ball on its way to Joško Gvardiol. Plus, a much-needed update on Danny Murphy's cat, Pete shouts at Andy Brassell, and an in-depth analysis of streakers.
