The Totally Football Show with James Richardson
Sports:Soccer
Matt Davies-Adams is joined in The Athletic studio by Duncan Alexander, Charlie Eccleshare and Joey D’Urso in a week chock full of Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup action.
Man City ease past Bayern to set up a Champions League semi-final rematch with Real Madrid, as Erling Haaland is agonisingly close to doing a Clive Allen.
Real unsurprisingly sweep aside Chelsea to end their season. How far could the Blues slip down the table over the next 17 games.
The other semi-final will be a Milan derby, thanks partly to the unfashionable fleece Olivier Giroud. James Horncastle tells us why defeat will feel like relegation for the losing side.
It’s FA Cup semi-final weekend and Brighton and Sheffield United are the teams looking to foil a first ever all Manchester final.
The Premier League weekend sees top play bottom and what could be a Champions League play-off between Newcastle and Spurs.
Plus Steven Gerrard at Villa, the last 10 minutes of Gillingham v Leyton Orient, and Duncan versus Producer Charlie in the Inter Totally Cup!
Produced by Charlie Jones.
