Episode 2067: Euros Day 5: Germany On The Brink
France: love them or hate them, and you would have to be French to love them, they will probably beat you. And what more is there to say about this supremely disinterested team? We give it a go regardless.

Felix Tamsut joins us to talk about Germany’s performance, what the team has lost since its dominant period of a few years ago, and whether there is much hope for a recovery in this tournament.
We also discuss concussion in football, how it’s still all about Ronaldo, plus there’s AIN’T NO WAY with Stephen A and an exciting new Frances Murphy slot.
