It’s happened, everybody: a player younger than the Football Ramble has scored in a major tournament semi-final. Today, Marcus, Luke, Jim and Andy are here to marvel at Lamine Yamal’s performance, even if Marcus does end up comparing him to MacGyver.

Elsewhere, the Ramblers explain why this should be the end for Didier Deschamps and they ease the pressure on Gareth’s Brave Boys ahead of tonight’s Dutch semi. In the words of Pitbull: don’t stop the party.

 The supercomputer has chimed in on the Euros semi-finals and Luke and John Cross are NOT happy.

Marcus, Luke and Andy preview Spain vs France tonight and try to figure out if Les Bleus can really grind Spain down with this whole 'not scoring goals' thing. We also give some deserved attention for one of the best football narratives in recent times: 38-year-old Jesús Navas being tasked with keeping Kylian Mbappé quiet.

In more confusing events, the BBC double down on their 'Misstiano Penaldo' graphic, much to the fury of Cristiano Ronaldo's legion of fanboys, while French media spy on their own team. Come join us!

Marcus, Luke, Jim and Positive Pete draw breath as England prepare for their semi-final in a few days’ time. Should Harry Kane spark up a big ol’ bifta to help with the injury?

We also round up the heartwarming celebrations that have brought the nation together, from Wimbledon to James Corden’s new play. Elsewhere, the German saxophone dethrones Cristiano Ronaldo as the most famous man in Europe and we answer some of your questions!

There’s also delight for Gareth Southgate and - most of all - Bukayo Saka’s moment, which was even bigger than Stuart Pearce’s in 1996. Plus, Andy explains why Jude Bellingham and Phil Foden are perfectly positioned to run the show in the semi-final against the Netherlands! LET’S GO!

What do you get when two cowardly coaches fight for a spot in the semis of the Euros? Portugal vs France and 120 minutes of Cristiano Ronaldo thinking he’s in The Truman Show, that's what...

Marcus, Andy, Vish and Pete react to Portugal and Germany’s exits from the Euros and why Roberto Martínez has a lot to answer for. And don’t get Pete started on the France physios – Kylian Mbappé clearly just needs some new nostrils.

Plus, how an English prison guard foiled the Germans, and why the Turkey team ordered many, many kilograms of kebab. And speaking of cautious coaches – England play tonight! Join us.

Marcus, Pete and Jim preview the last 8, where it’s BUSINESS time. Marcus is living in the past about Germany as we size up their clash with the Spaniards, while over in the England camp Gareth Southgate is finally learning from the past and trying a new formation with Ed Sheeran as sweeper.

Plus, Andy Carroll becomes a Streets of Rage character and Pete explains which fish he’d willingly eat off the floor in painstaking detail.

Austria vs Turkey…. how were there only three goals? Marcus, Luke and Andy are here to celebrate Brassell’s brave boys making it through to the quarter final after one of the best games at the tournament so far.

Elsewhere, Luke heaps praise onto Cody Gakpo and we try work out whether Neil Warnock is behind the rise of the xG phenomenon. Plus, Marcus states his intentions to buy a Man United season ticket now that Tom Heaton has signed a new one year extension. Let's go!

And it was enough to bring tears to (some people’s) eyes. Pete, Andy and Jim relive a dramatic night for Portugal which saw them escape calamity and Slovenia miss out on history. Meanwhile, we’re pretty sure Cristiano Ronaldo is still in the stadium smashing free kicks into the stands.

We discuss why Bobby Martinez should use Ronaldo sparingly in the next game. Plus, those French slugs bag another own goal to beat Belgium in the Fries Derby and Jude Bellingham faces questions from UEFA’s busy bodies.
