In the first of two of the Londoners’ World Cup quarter-final podcasts this week, our panel review Friday’s quarter-finals and throw-forward to tonight’s first semi-final.
Both quarter-finals went to penalties, as Neymar’s stunning goal wasn’t enough for Brazil, as they crashed out to Croatia with the superstar forward in tears as he didn’t get to take a penalty.
Then, Argentina and the Netherlands fought on and off the field in an ill-tempered but enthralling 2-2 draw, that saw Lionel Messi’s side make it through when it went to spot-kicks.
You can listen to the full podcast below or on Spotify and you can listen to the other quarter-final review here.
With Alex Meechan, Charlie Patrick, Oli Gent and host George Simms.
