Argentina – inspired once again by Leo Messi – are through to the world cup final.

 

Marcela Mora y Araujo has spoken to us many times over the years as Argentina collectively dealt with failure, scapegoating and heartbreak – but today is a good news story.

 

We talk about the communal joy Messi brings, Ken gets an upgrade, and Modric finally looks his age.

 

Plus there’s permutations man, the mysterious Moroccan fan and Ken says you can’t back against France.
