Argentina stumbled to an opening World Cup defeat at the hands of Saudi Arabia. Lionel Messi's penalty was pegged back and beaten by a brilliant Saudi team whose high line and manic pressing beat the Argentine's into panic. Shamrock Rovers and Cape Verde defender Roberto Lopes has firsthand experience of international backlines and he heaped praise on Saudi Arabia for how they approached the game. Dan McDonnell attended his first game as France swatted Australia aside and the empty seats continue to detract from the festival FIFA would want this tournament to portray. We get some colour into the lavish media centre in Qatar, a listener-requested update on the McDonald's and a preview of today's game - with a potential shock on the cards between Japan and Germany?
