FIFA World Cup 2026

Insomnia meant I got to watch large parts of the Argentina v Egypt game....amazing. A couple of beautiful goals from Egypt, especially the second on the break, and they managed to stop everything Argentina threw at them, including a penalty and then over 11 minutes Argentina did Argentina things...the beautiful game can be cruel.

Columbia out on penalties, I hope that doesn't mean some poor bugger gets shot.

Interesting 3 part podcast about the 1994 Colombia ‘journey’, culminates in what actually happened for Andrés Escobar to get shot. To save everyone time, he got involved in an argument outside a nightclub after someone gave him **** about the own goal and the other guy shot him (as you do).

The ‘It Was What It Was’ podcast series is great listening for anyone interested in knowing more about events from football’s history. Incredibly well researched and well told by Jonathan Wilson and Rob Draper, two UK based football journalists.
