About this episode

Pep Guardiola can take his own advice after his plucky underdogs blew Sporting to smithereens over in Lisbon last night. Strange that they're still only the world's seventh best team, behind Al Ahly and Palmeiras.


Marcus, Pete and Vish work that one out before revelling in more Mbappé magic and Messi mishaps. We also check in with the salty side of Manchester after their win and officially open Nashville's new stadium.
