On The Continent: A lacklustre PSG, Shak...

About this episode

With last season's Champions League final still fresh in the memory, PSG were back to their underwhelming group stage selves this week. Dotun Adebayo, Andy Brassell and Nicky Bandini are here to unpick that result on today’s episode of On The Continent - your weekly guide to the biggest stories in European football!


Elsewhere, after Shakhtar Donetsk’s humbling of Real Madrid this week, we look at Shakhtar’s unbelievable journey over the past few years that has seen them flee war-torn Donetsk and re-establish themselves as one of Ukraine’s elite. There’s also time for the necessary praise for the age-defining antics of Zlatan Ibrahimović, as he leads this young Milan side into a bold new era.
