Hello and welcome to the Football Daily with me, Rick Edwards. And me, Lloyd Griffiths.
Griffiths. Oh, yeah. Griffiths.
Can we just mention why I'm saying Griffiths? Yeah. Obviously, the game's happened. There was a montage at the end of BBC. Yeah. Where we all got credited. Yeah. But they called me Lloyd Griffiths. Yeah, because I told them to. No, you did.
I said that was your name. If you did.
They're like, who's the guy that you did a podcast with?
Oh, they did not say that.
And I said, it's Lloyd Griffiths. How dare they?
Yeah.
I don't believe you. It's true. Me, Lou Griffiths. We've just got back from the MetLife Stadium where the World Cup final finished. Football won. Argentina nil. Yeah, that's right.
I've been a little bit cheeky. Sorry, you didn't see that.
Producer Lizzie's face, who is an Argentina fan, she was scathing. Or should I say scathing? You should say that, yeah. A lot of people, I think... were questioning whether at this age, on the world's biggest stage, it would be possible to perform at the highest level. But it turns out, Madonna has still got it. Badum tish. Thank you. There you go. There we go. It's good stuff. We actually worked up that joke, didn't we? It took a lot longer than you'd thought. Well, we knew there was a joke, and then eventually we, yeah.
And we actually thought of it before the game as well. Yeah, we did.
Well, it depends on what Messi does. The framing of it depends on what Messi does. And in the end, he did absolutely nothing. Madonna did a lot more than him. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Even though she was only singing.
What was the hosts' immediate reaction after the World Cup final at MetLife Stadium?
Well, come on to the halftime show, obviously. Only singing in the stadium. And she barely stepped into the stadium for about 10 seconds. It was like seven seconds. It was like a Dracula. Not allowed to see light. I must get back in. the whole time when she's on the jeep or whatever it was just thinking where is she yeah where is it supposed to be like in the bowels of the stadium are they driving around the car park why does it look like this it was spinal tap it was really bizarre but we'll get on to that later we will so we're going to be joined by a few of our colleagues as we do the podcast because and this is oh i'll let you know why that is we are sat outside the bar that we have been coming to them, where we recorded the podcast called Buddies.
Buddies, yeah, Buddies. And because everyone except us, mainly me, actually, has finished their work on the World Cup, they've all gone, well, I've got to do breakfast after this between 1 and 4 a.m., Lloyd. And everyone else is having a drink in there to celebrate finishing.
Well, they've just finished.
And we're sat outside on the pavement, sort of like beggars. I feel like, who's on a Christmas carol when I'm banging on the window going...
please, Paul Robinson, come and talk to me.
It was so funny because we're set up outside and a few people have just been in and said hello and have gone off and Gabby Logan just walked past and I was like, Gabby, oh my God, hi, how you doing? I was like, yeah, good. She went, what are you doing? I was like, just got to work. On the pavement? On the pavement, Gabby, yeah. We don't all have the luxury of studios. No. But, Absolutely love Gabby. Of course we love Gabby. And we asked her if she'd come on and she said no. She's going for a nice dinner. It's her wedding anniversary so far. Yes, it is. Listen, going to a World Cup final was unbelievable. It was so good. There's actually quite a lot I think we need to discuss before we even get to the football.
I don't think we're going to spend that much time talking about the actual football. No, because the actual football wasn't great. But the experience was brilliant. If you want to hear all of the post-match reaction, hello, robot. There's a robot.
