Episode notes
The World Cup is here — and the Football is Life crew is not convinced that bigger automatically means better.
With an expanded field, brutal heat, 2 a.m. kickoffs, and eye-watering ticket prices, the boys debate whether FIFA has created a global spectacle or diluted the best tournament in football. Then the predictions begin: Mike backs Spain, Ross makes the case for Argentina, and Wazza goes rogue with Germany.
The crew also weighs up England’s chances of another disappointment, the teams most likely to surprise, the Golden Boot contenders, and the players who could define the tournament. Some predictions will age beautifully. Others may not survive the group stage.
