Sweden vs Bulgaria, 1994 - Season 2, Episode 5

Admittedly not the most glamourous tie from the 1994 World Cup, but these two nations defied the odds to reach the semi-final and do battle for the bronze medal during a miraculous American summer.

In a podcast about men with too much or too little hair, we dissect the journeys of these two underdogs and discuss what happened when they met in the Third Place Play-Off. This is our first stop off at USA '94 and we thoroughly enjoyed it!

The Game of the Century - Season 2, Episode 3 

Italy 4 - 3 West Germany, World Cup Semi-Final, 17th June 1970. 

Dubbed The Game of the Century, this World Cup semi-final between two European heavyweights was the epitome of a ding-dong battle. Both sides held the lead, both sides lost the lead - there were plenty of goals, penalty shouts, defensive mishaps, late equalisers and Franz Beckenbauer played with a broken collar bone. Was it really the game of the century? We'll let you decide.

Sven's England, Part 1 - Season 1, Episode 12

Where else, and on who else could we realistically end this first season? The Swedish lothario, Sven-Göran Eriksson took charge of the England national team in January 2001 in this first instalment we talk all things Japan & Korea.

From the 5-1 demolition of Germany away in Munich, through David Beckham's last-minute equaliser to send the Three Lions to the World Cup and the win against Argentina in the groups, to the eventual defeat to Brazil in the quarter-finals. 2002 is seen as one huge missed opportunity for England, and here's why.
