Hello and welcome to the Football Daily. We are well into the swing of things now. It's Rick Edwards and Lloyd Griffith from our comfy little base in Santa Monica. Here's a reminder of the scores for you from match day four. Germany thrashed Curacao 7-1. Japan scored a late header. to make it 2-1 against the Netherlands. Sweden are playing Tunisia as we record this. Sounds like someone just scored. Ivory Coast beat Ecuador 1-0 with a goal right at the end from Ahmad Diallo. A reminder, you can get all the highlights and scores on the BBC Sport website and app. Now, we got told earlier today that... Quite excitingly, we're going to get some time with an England player. And we didn't have that much notice.
So it was a bit of a scramble to go and get over to where our recording kit was set up. So we drove over to this location. I was driving. Lloyd was in the front seat. Producer Lizzie was in the back, working hard, making sure that we were prepared. And as we arrived outside the building, the place where I was going to park... had all these bins in the way. And so obviously the bins were going to need to be moved. And so I'm obviously driving, so I can't because I'm parking the car. Lizzie's working hard. So you'd assume, you would assume that you would get out and move the bins. And that isn't what happened. And why is that? I was doing my hair. You were doing your hair. So you said to Lizzie, you're going to actually have to go and move those bins.
I said, can we get the producer to move the bins, please? And she did, because she's a great producer.
What insights does Jordan Pickford share about the England camp?
In my defence, I... There is no defence. No, there is a defence, OK? You literally got me out of the shower and was like, we need to go now. I was like... It was a bit of a rush, yeah. It was a bit of a rush. So I was then, you know, I recently had a hair transplant. I spent £5,000 on it. Looks lovely. Thank you. So I'm going to make sure it looks good for the footballer that we're about to introduce. And so I was using the little vents of the car to kind of like dry it. And you were spraying something on.
Yeah, it's glue. It's glue. It's hairspray.
You'd never heard of hairspray before? I don't know anything about hair transplants. I thought you were just making sure it was all sticking. Just hairspray, Rick. You've never heard of hairspray. Look, you're talking to me like I'm the bad guy here. No, you are. No. Anyway, Lizzie, thank you. Lizzie's rifling around with the bins. Thank you for moving the bins. But I also do hope you move them back because it is recycling day tomorrow in LA. That's true. Well, once the bins were moved and Lloyd had glued his hair in place, we did eventually get to sit down and chat to England's number one, and I would say acquaintance of yours. Good friend. Good friend of mine. Acquaintance, Jordan Pickford. My friend. Jordan, half of you all got locked in your hotel because of a tornado.
How are you all doing? It was decent to be fair, seeing all the thunder and lightning. I was safe playing darts and chilling in my room. Who was the most scared? I think we're all alright. Got a bit of, lads got treatment, we had dinner. The only problem was we couldn't eat dinner outside like we normally do. But apart from that, it was sound. Have you been watching the games so far together and who has impressed you so far, Jordan? Yeah, about four games a day at the minute, so it's quite a good win. A bit of downtime, so I've been watching the games, but everyone's here on merit. Everyone had to qualify to get here, so I think Morocco played really well against Brazil.
