Hello and welcome to the Tifo Football Podcast. I'm Joe Devine and today I'm delighted to be joined by Sebastian Stavadbl. Hi, Joe Devine. It's going well. Yeah? That's good. What about you, J J Bull?
Yes. Did you forget what the podcast was called while you were reading it?
Possible.
I think you did.
Possible. I like it. I'm all for it. It could have been called anything today, couldn't it? It could have been called the Arsenal North London Forever podcast. The Mickel Marina is our hero, our leader and our saviour podcast. It could have been called the podcast that is uh has no name but uh but is joined by special guest Marine Kahn.
Thank you. I don't have a triple barreled name.
Wow. Like these
guys. The
Tepid that was a Tepigram name, it wasn't.
I thought
Marine Khan was double barreled and your first name was they've got
th who knows?
Was woman. I don't know. Woman Woman Marine. You know we're live now on the internet, you know that, don't you? Yeah. Shouldn't shouldn't say things like that. Okay, excellent. Yeah. That part didn't
get cut.
What do we talk about on today's podcast? Well, we're recording this in the immediate aftermath of the Spain Portugal game, and what a doozy that was. Let me tell you, we did a live uh Athletic FC watch along for that. We're doing plenty more of them, by the way, if you want to join us. In fact, tomorrow we are live for the Argentina Egypt game. Five PM local time. No, not local time. Local time to me. Yeah, five PM UK time. So join us for that. Uh but our recording time today does mean that we don't know the result. Of the USA Belgium game. So if you're listening tomorrow, don't expect us to understand that. We'll chat about it on tomorrow's show instead. What do we talk about today?
Or today's if you're listening tomorrow.
Or today's if you're listening tomorrow, indeed. That could be the case. Time is a is a rule.
Or the day after if that's your habit is to listen to
Yeah. Would you like to extend this further? No. You've chosen to stop there. A good choice, I think. What do we talk about? Well, we talked about Portugal. Uh oh look, we've written Portugal 1-0 Spain. That doesn't make any sense, does it? Very confusing there. That's not what happened. It was in fact Portugal nil won Spain. Uh Spain threw to the quarterfinals against USA or Belgium. We play a rondo. Uh uh Donald Trump confirmed that he did call Gianni. Infantino about flow balicons red. We'll talk about that a little bit later. We are uh blessed to be joined by Maureen for today's episode. You'll find out why a little bit later on we're gonna talk about NATO. Uh after uh England, we all stayed up late, didn't we, to watch the England game.
We're gonna reflect on that a little bit uh and uh look forward to uh the tie with Norway on on Saturday. And we check in on Points A Bad at the end there. Yeah? Excited did I miss anything, Producer Ryan? Doesn't sound like it. Well, later someone will add music to this pause.
Well, Portugal nil. One Estania What how what is Portugal in Portuguese? Do we know?
Portugal.
Portu Portugal. Portugal. Deal.
Zero? Zero? No, it's French. No.
Uh Uno Espania. There we go. It was a fairly tight game in Dallas, of course. Looked to be heading to extra time, but a late goal from substitute Mikel Marino, an Arsenal hero, Mikel Marino, who got on the the end of a lovely through ball by Ferran Torres was enough to spend uh to send Spain through to the quarterfinals for the first time since they won the tournament back in twenty ten, which which is uh beggar's belief really, doesn't it? Uh they will face the winners of the USA. and Belgium in the play in Los Angeles on Friday. Um let's start with UCEP. Spain probably the better team in a bit of a tight game. Did they show much today of of how good they are or was this more of one of those games they just kinda had to win?
Uh, relative to the other games they played in this tournament, no, because I think the thing that's impressed me, Joe, most of all is is their ball circulation, how they've managed to create chances from all kinds of different situations.
