Football English - The Opposition

JACK RADFORD
About this episode
In this week's Premier Skills English Podcast, Rowan and Jack are at home watching a match. The language focus is on words and phrases to talk about the other team (the opposition). In this week's task, we want you to talk about a rival team. Don't forget to listen to the end of the podcast because we have a new football phrase for you to guess.

Visit the podcast page on Premier Skills English to read the transcript, complete some practice activities and the task and join in the discussion at Premier Skills English > Skills > Listen > Podcasts > Football English > The Opposition
