This week Ruairi and Adam are joined by football writer and Serie A enthusiast Mark Gordon (@TheMarkGordon) to discuss all the happenings in the World Cup and beyond!
Starting off with the fall out in Poland as Michniewicz and co return and Samuel Eto'o getting his boots back on to take on Algerian football.
We then have to switch our focus to the awful news of a migrant worker losing his life in a team hotel and a whistleblower being kept in prison, these stories feel like they are never-ending. How do we feel about the tournament so far and just how much worse does the lack of sympathy make it all?
Finally we are then able to switch our focus to the pitch, Portugal rise without Ronaldo, Morocco win hearts and minds by overcoming Spain and we then preview some very exciting quarter-finals.
Finally, we then go back to this week's episode of the soap opera that is Juventus FC and get Mark's thoughts on what this means for Italian football and is the image being tarnished yet again.
And as always to finish throughout this World Cup we continue our partnership with Cards of Qatar to tell the stories of three migrant workers who lost their lives in the build up to this tournament.
