Youth Football Showdown and Historical Struggles

Jimbo, Duncan Alexander, Charlie Eccleshare and Colin Millar are in the studio with wall-to-wall football to discuss.

PSG set up a reunion with Lionel Messi and Inter Miami in the last 16 of the Club World Cup. And Botafogo knock out Atletico Madrid to tee up an all-Brazilian clash with Palmeiras. Jack Lang in LA tells us why Brazilian sides are doing so well at this tournament.

Man City face Juventus on Thursday with both sides already through. Are both free-scoring sides back to their best or are they just playing bad teams? And we need to talk about the weather.

There are goals galore and family trees rocking in both the Under 19 and Under 21s Euros, where holders England are one game away from the final.

Plus why no Lautaro love, CWC sides in the Premier League and the Sampdoria saga.
