About this episode

Hugh Woozencroft is joined by Jonathan Northcroft, Molly Hudson and Ian Hawkey.


Football took a backseat as everything was put into perspective by Christian Eriksen’s horrific collapse on the pitch. Thankfully, he’s stable in hospital - but should the game have been restarted later in the day? (00:00)


Did Wales show they have what it takes to replicate their impressive run in 2016 - or are they up against it after a lacklustre start against Switzerland? (11:20)


England start their Euros campaign against Croatia on Sunday. The evening before kick off, they’ve released a statement and video encouraging fans to get behind the team - but will pre-match booing again be the talking point come full time? (23:00)


Today’s results:

Wales 1-1 Switzerland

Denmark 0-1 Finland

Belgium 3-0 Russia
