The Totally Football Show with James Richardson
Sports:Soccer
Jimbo, James Horncastle, Raphael Honigstein, Julien Laurens and Alvaro Romeo are back together at The Athletic studios in anticipation of some red-hot Champions League second legs.
Bayern host PSG with a 1-0 lead but can they contain Kylian Mbappe, PSG’s newly crowned all-time top scorer? Especially when Julian Nagelsmann seems to have lost faith in Joao Cancelo.
Dortmund travel to Stamford Bridge after securing their 10th win in a row in 2023. They’ve learned how to play without the ball and the brilliant Julian Brandt is archetypal of the new Dortmund.
Spurs welcome Milan to North London for a fixture that’s too close to call. Is Rafael Leao due a big performance for the Rossoneri?
Domestically, Sevilla are smashed 6-1 by Atletico with Sampaoli and Monchi both under the microscope. And Will Still is still unbeaten in Ligue 1 with Reims.
Plus Scott Parker, Piers Morgan and boil-in bag rice.
Produced by Charlie Jones.
