Learn English Through Football Podcast: 2019 Manchester City vs Tottenham On this week’s English through football podcast we look back at the Champions League quarter-finals and look ahead to the big Premier League games this weekend. We also have another football-language question which is this week connected to the phrase ‘clinical finishing‘, we explain the football phrase ‘acute angle‘ and offer some predictions from this week’s matches including Liverpool’s trip to Cardiff City.

Introduction

DF: You are listening to languagecaster.com’s football-language podcast. Welcome everyone to the podcast for all lovers of the beautiful game of football who want to improve their English-language skills. My name’s Damian and on this Easter weekend,  I’m in a very sunny London and looking forward to all of the football this Easter weekend. Now I was unable to make the podcast last weekend as I was at a teaching conference in Leeds in the north of England, while this week my colleague Damon is away from the podcast microphone so it’s just myself today.
