The Morning Footy crew kicks things off with a deep dive into the underdog story of the season: Bodø/Glimt are Europa League semifinalists—yes, really. How have the Norwegian minnows managed this historic run? Then, Claudia Pagan delivers the day’s headlines, including the biggest one of all: Lionel Messi is undecided about playing in the 2026 World Cup. What would his absence mean for Argentina’s hopes of defending their title?
