Another England game, another boring performance. But just when it looked like Slovakia would knock the English out, Jude Bellingham equalised with a stunning bicycle kick! Harry Kane won it for the Three Lions in ET, but questions still need to be asked of Gareth Southgate.
Amogh, Mukesh and Aakarsh (YES HE'S BACK!) discuss all of England's issues, plus build up to a bumper encounter between Germany and Spain. Also, we talk about Kevin De Bruyne's retirement plans.

[00:01:59] Yeah see, haggard is very much a part of my look in personality So when I went to the head, I was like, they need to try to do that Haggard is important, haggard is me But you actually look quite undrecognizable

[00:02:33] Same same but slightly different I feel like, although with Thorgin, this day I feel like being Thorgin as it is much better than being eaten as an Because Thorgin is still playing football He is very good at playing football
[00:02:42] He's a little bit more serious not playing soccer in the head with speed Yeah, he will never have half the careers at eaten and I mean, all the fact that Yeah, I think that's more that's more like it

[00:03:33] Which mean that 730 today you realized you don't have headphones How how do you live in a dark life Mukesh? This is not a new thing. We record at this time every Monday, every Monday. You guys are like, this is what you see. Okay.
[00:03:48] Guys, you are the only people I use your phones for. I never use your phones in life. Your making it sound like a butt plug or something. You know, only when done with you guys, I gave it to these kinks.
[00:04:02] There's no other reason in my life to use your phone. Except that's okay. So get so get at phones only for this podcast and keep them fucking safe. That's true. The safe part because this is my 8 pair of your phones by the way. Dude, you changed your phones.
[00:04:20] You can new your phone more often than what again. Yeah. Yeah. You are the water. And that's like saying something then. Oh, man. I really want to know how your brain works. Because it is it is a fascinating. It is fascinating. I've literally spent out seven, eight,
[00:04:42] eight, eight in just spare your phones. That even means that of your phones. She's. Oh, God. Wow. Because do you want if you weren't so absent minded, you'd like have enough money to only have a pool or something by now? Yeah.
[00:05:01] You're about to club by you just spent it all in like your phones and other such things that we don't know about. There. Yeah. Yeah. Pretty much. Pretty much. So you're part. So yeah. Newcash was at my place yesterday.
[00:05:17] I feel like he's wearing the same t-shirt that you wrote on my place yesterday. He's got a sheepish look about himself. Bookaesh is counting on the fact that this is an audio medium completely forgetting the day.
[00:05:29] That's why the United chose this audio medium only exactly completely forgetting the fact that we have a YouTube channel where we do post videos. So they are going to see in your stale t-shirt and onlets glory.
[00:05:42] I'm not going to give the listeners and watch as any more details about the origins of this piece. Because I still think you are a friend and I will be nice. Empathy is a good character trait, but the point is, bookaesh was over at my place yesterday.
[00:05:57] We watched the England game together. And that is very, very big. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Surprisingly, he came on time for that. He arrived half an hour before kick off. Guys, okay. So you read the kick off time wrong. Yeah, hi, it has nine aim. Morning.
[00:06:19] And I was like, oh, I just mean to allow us later. But no, he did. He didn't make it on time. He saw the full match. And I feel sad that he got to see the full match because even I felt really depressed.
[00:06:30] And I mean, because again, England, a very underwhelming performance as is being there, story throughout this tournament. They needed to build them out, but just overall, what I put, what are your thoughts mucky? Let's start with you, you're overall thoughts on it.
[00:06:47] It is depressing that the extra time was the most interesting part about the game. Right. You know, like, I wish I was a slow walker friend. Because I could have felt, you know, like the, the hope and the heartbreak and the depression. Yeah.
[00:07:02] But because I was like, same, I mean, we just cared about England a little more than anything else. Yeah. I had to suffer through 90 minutes of stupidity. Yeah. And bad, bad, bad, bad football. And then the, even the extra time completely wasn't exciting, by the way.
[00:07:21] It was just like, little bit of extra time at the end of 90 minutes. And then like the first five minutes of extra time. Yeah. Yeah. It was basically the end of regulation time and the first two minutes of extra time, which is where England woke up.
[00:07:34] And did what they needed to do. So incredibly lucky result for England. Occurs modern you think about that England performance. And especially the changes that Southgate made for this game, which is got copy
[00:07:47] man who into the midfield, over corner Gallagher, who was brought in in the last game over trend Alexander on. And do you think that that gave England a little bit more balance at all? I mean, so I honestly only watched the highlights.
[00:08:01] And I've been watching the Yoros too much because I haven't had the time. But from where I saw in the highlights, it looked like, Kobe, my new was the one player that was actually playing like he's playing for a Yoros game.
[00:08:13] And it seemed like overall really, really rubbish. And I've been following the games on Twitter. And I read this really, really nice tweet which sort of gave me a summary of the changes that Southgate made during the game.
[00:08:28] The tweet said that even Ocean Gate makes better subs than guys. But that is it's so true because his substitutions are ridiculous. They are absolutely ridiculous. Any at the audacity in his postman interview to say, see, that's why you don't make
[00:08:48] changes even when people are asking for changes. We wanted to keep Harry Kane and Jude Belinger on the pitch because they are capable of giving us those moments. I mean, it's not dumb for the manager here.
[00:09:00] And I can't imagine people were actually supporting him because England had a good run in the world cup basically. And in the last Yoros, they got to the final. On the basis of that, people are saying that, oh, he's the best manager in England have
[00:09:15] had for a very long time and that is just absurd to me. Yeah, I feel like it's terrible football to watch. It's like really boring football to watch. And England has a great bunch of players and has had a great bunch of players for a while
[00:09:32] and they've been wasted. It's just somewhere honestly, it feels like some higher ups in England decided that they could change Prime Minister's to often. We need to have one steady captain of one ship. Whatever that is, just one thing we should have steady. Carats outgate is boring.
[00:09:52] Up Prime Minister's are all like bizarre and very entertaining and throughout like unpredictable shit. Let's have one boring thing to rely on. I think that it's outgate is that. So apparently this was, I mean, not apparently it was, it was outgate 99th game in charge as a manager.
[00:10:11] And you think at the 90s, second minute, like he knew it looked like England would go out. He'd always started constructing the, I had a great tenure and I enjoyed myself. You know, it's not a composing there is a resignation letter. Yeah.
[00:10:27] And then out of the bucket, no air, dude, telling him is like, oh man, because I'm sure it's a nightmare and torture to Southgate also. Yeah. You don't know, say, I don't think he's having it easy, like, when if someone kept me in charge
[00:10:40] of the nuclear codes on launches, like I, of course, right, fully available. I'd be like, I don't want to do this either. Yeah. No, I think we'd be safe if you had the nuclear codes could you probably forget that. Yeah.
[00:10:52] If they're like, I wrote them there in a safe place on a piece of paper. There in a very safe place, I just can't currently remember where they are. But just if Mukhi should have to do for God password on the nuclear codes.
[00:11:05] But I feel like at some point, Garth's outgate while he was making those calculations. Oh, for 99 games in charge and we are getting knocked out and I'm pretty much going to be sack. I think he must have called the FNB like, okay, cool.
[00:11:17] If we get knocked out before I leave, can we do one friendly against San Marito? Just tomorrow, let's play one friendly. San Marino will beat them and then I'll go and Jude Belligam must have over her dad like, oh, not these guys again. Fuck it.
[00:11:32] I'm taking matters into my own hands. I'm going to play a game. I'll play a game. And then he scores that beautiful bicycle kick and screams, who else? Now, that was the moment of the game. Firstly, great goal.
[00:11:43] Fantastic technique, which is, again, expected from possibly the world's best player currently in his position at his. But the release, the emotional release that he had in that celebration just speaks volumes about England's relationship with their fans.
[00:12:03] I mean, again, I saw the highlights by felt like up until that 95th minute where he scored, Belligam didn't do shit. You did not that anyone in the team really performed well, but he was very, very, very invisible. Yeah.
[00:12:18] And again, I've been looking at stats and ratings and all that. He's just purely statistical numbers of penalties are very bad tournament. So I guess we're saying. With Belligam, you don't go by stats. You go by screenplay moments. Yeah.
[00:12:34] What produces most amount of drama in this guys life? That's what's going to happen here. Because clearly, I can't think of any player who was so invisible for so long and it produces the most. It's actually an epic moment, right? Like, it's like, you, it changed your headlines.
[00:12:51] You're for the next day. Like, yeah. It changed the course of England manager. That's how everything people tell us about how Thena thread, Southgate was surviving. How thin or thread England had to wait for four more years. Like, how thin a thread was before England?
[00:13:10] Like, they would be no K and Kyle Wachos, old news. Belligam is not a young talent anymore. But the next time we're even going to shot it this year. So it was just like how, so yeah, I do think you should go by stats at all.
[00:13:23] With Belligam, it just like, what is the most dramatic thing that can happen right now that he can do? Let's make that happen. I think four for Belligam, they need to, in sort of, opta stats, they need to come over the new Twitter account called Octa fields.
[00:13:37] Octa fields. He is that guy. But since you were talking about the very, very thin strand that Garus Southgate was holding out on, I was watching. So this snippet of an interview on BBC where they were interviewing fans.
[00:13:56] And there were these two like really drunk 38-40-year-old British women were like, Southgate shittens the worst performance we've ever seen and he's going to get us. Yeah! Yeah! It was like, we did think we have just gone nuts and it was quite,
[00:14:15] the video is seem quite interesting. Did you all see Gary Neville celebrating? Yeah! Yeah! If like some class is going to shatter somewhere because he's like, don't do something. He said, 14-40-year-old woman, I thought we were talking about that.
[00:14:37] The picture where he was yelling was, he does have the range to go into a very high-pitch, especially when he is excited. It is amazing to see. But no, British is going back to the fans, right?
[00:14:50] Like throughout the game and I get, I get where the fans are also coming from because we've spoken about this for all of England's previous games as well. They have been absolutely boring this entire tournament, right?
[00:15:03] And with the squad like this, with the kind of players that England have, you don't expect that because these are some of the best players that England have produced. They are capable of playing and to take an infotainment role and they're just not doing that.
[00:15:15] Like throughout the game yesterday, they kept passing the ball sideways and passing the ball backwards without an outlet. They all just looked confused and there was so many moments where Ford was throwing his hands up in the air, frustrated and not getting a pass.
[00:15:31] Belling him was doing the same. Declanirized was doing the same. They were all asking for passes but the pass is not coming to them. Forward pass. Everybody looked frustrated. And that kind of carries on to the England fans as well. Who we know are at off-sign bench.
[00:15:43] They're very quick to turn on the national team when things are not going their way, which is by and large what England National team is all about. But throughout the game you could hear the fans boo, right? Throughout the game.
[00:15:56] And I get, I completely get that it does affect players. But these are players of the England National team. Like surely they are the players who should know this behind-arm. They are their country, they are their country.
[00:16:09] It's like this should be like second nature for them to deal with the English press and the English fans should be something that they are born. Like that should be a course that they are taught at the England Dreaming camp before they become like fully kept international players.
[00:16:27] So it befales me that the fan reaction of the fan criticism or the media criticism is affecting because it should be a bit of a leap of the people. And then to see the fans give it back to the fans like that and the arrogant people say
[00:16:45] like, oh yeah it feels nice when you get to give it back when you deliver. Like you said, I think the most confused person is probably like a Slovakia fan because the English fans boo, they're not in the Slovakia fan boo. Yeah.
[00:17:04] He's like, oh, which team are you guys supposed to do? So there's more the jersey of England at to boo that. Like how does that kind of work? I think Slovakia fan is just happy to be there. They have a great time.
[00:17:15] Like, oh fuck, not only have we been to the knockout. We're also about to knock England now, which is just like a great thing. But yeah, uh, Kane got the winner in extra time. So very little time between the two goals for England but uh,
[00:17:29] Kane got the winner. Ivan Tony's flicked on header was the assist for that goal and Ivan Tony was into his three minutes before, uh, before full time. So I'll get it said that he had a little bit of a stacked with Tony who was
[00:17:41] is gusted that he was being brought on with only three minutes to go. And so I'll get said that now it looks like we have reason to make up. Again, like this man is ruining whatever culture he had once built if he had even done
[00:17:56] that in this England set up because his substitutions are terrible. And he's uh, yeah, I mean, I remember at the 88th minute or something when I discussed like how what what is Tony expected to do now?
[00:18:10] Just run like you know like you can't even sprint like it's like what is what is the role given to him? Yeah. And I think at some point soccer was left back. Yeah. Uh, left wing back. I'd best. Uh, I think when Pa Morgan just absolutely
[00:18:26] the acting list plan list, right? And it and I'm like it's it's England. They between them they've played in all sorts of systems. Right between those players. They were also played abroad now. The enough players who played abroad. Um, I don't know.
[00:18:40] It was just it's ridiculous how they've hung on to Southgate. But yeah, good for Jude Banyam. You see if the man's gonna. Southgate skids can go to a post school post college wherever for at least one week more.
[00:18:54] Completely because with the linden up next and I'm I feel like I I felt like so I could not. England out now they managed to go ahead. Now it feels like so is the linden will knock them out.
[00:19:03] But I guess similarly they will manage to go ahead there as well. The declin tries a bit of a spactor with uh, as we walk ahead coach Francesco Calzona. And uh, he was uh caught after full time. Uh, by lip readers saying to this law again manager,
[00:19:19] shut up you pussy. Oh, shut up you bald fucking gun. Hey, bro, yes, law is so cute. Like they should not even be in the same sphere as you guys. They've played so well to take you to extra time because you've been terrible and you're
[00:19:40] going and talking to their head coach like this I'm like, sharonkaroya Arthona, sharonkaro. This is like you know when Harry Mac OS scored against what I think, me, come on, not me, can't know. But like so early, Randy, he, he, he,
[00:19:52] and he cop his ears and was like, bro, like you should not be a model tower. I have such a thing. No, no, it was so marinated. It was back till speed. Town or something in the in the FA come. No, I was fine. England, England.
[00:20:03] Oh, he scored again. So then it must have been San Marie known one more time. But he hired him back. Oh, yeah. Exactly. I feel like and again, I come back to seem like it is the result of terrible negative journalism in England.
[00:20:20] It is just the toxicity of the fan base in England, that tends to get to these players and then they react in such a way, which just breeds further toxicity. So it's like a, it's a vicious circle of toxicity,
[00:20:32] which is, which is hammering England's chances at this and any other tournament in this current state I feel. Yeah, I mean, but I maybe this is the part where they go from, you know, like the stumble and stumble and stumble and then they will. Yeah.
[00:20:51] This is just enough. If there's enough vibes on a screen, the anti-gica quote, the first day, first day in prison, you, then they beat you, then they do something to you and then you win. First in half, it was clean up. But you're okay. Oh, impressive.
[00:21:06] Yeah, you're a generation trauma. Yeah. Yeah. Now he's like, if they laugh for you after imprisoning you, that's, that's just more about denting than it's about you. That's just a little bit of a soul's then. But yeah, I feel like that is that is the case.
[00:21:17] Now England, Lou face with the lin now in the next, in the next round with the lin of course, known for knocking Italy out of the world cup. It would be great for sizzling marriage in England out.
[00:21:27] We'll basically just start your route when you're 24 with a clean slate. We don't want any remnants of your route 2020. That tournament was played in 2021 because of COVID. It was basically it was a makeshift tournament. It doesn't matter sizzling, they're just like we are going to wipe this late.
[00:21:45] Yeah, pretend like it never. I would be very excited for early random, you know, I feel like we need a, without who feel like that Germany spin game, it'll probably be the, the designer of the one of the finalists. Yeah.
[00:22:00] No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Yeah, the final winner, I think maybe. But yeah, I hope I hope it's the early random, um, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope,
[00:22:10] I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, amazing this tournament. X-Men United alumni, Ralph Rangnik coaching us to you. Just goes on to show how shit man United was.
[00:22:24] Because your hostry has a very good feeling. Our players didn't have to be there. They were like, who's the Christian and Roddy, but you're right, it's not a close life because Roddy coach, because Roddy's host is a run.
[00:22:37] And now, Ralph Rangnik is doing this with us to the hostry. Like, today, I'm going to show you how to do it. I have players who like to run, what I can do. So I'll tell you, I tell you what my coaching is like.
[00:22:48] I love for them to be alive. I think it'd be fantastic to go on to win. Good, you never know. The goal is awful through the tournament, but somehow on it. And England might be like terrible through the tournament.
[00:23:18] And somehow just like we need win every game in extra time. I'm a shit-level at host and then Southgate will be smug for the rest of his life. Yeah, whatever it is, I just want Southgate to be away from United. Which is, it was discussed at some point.
[00:23:35] I can't believe people were just like, yeah, I can't believe Jim Rackley was also like, yeah, maybe he's been good. I think that was the moment where all the optimism I had about New Orange, but Manchester United immediately fucking died out.
[00:23:49] I was like, who's Southgate's going to be like, oh, this is not happening. That's the thing, I'm not doing anything. I'm not doing anything. It's a good thing to know about it. Let's go. I feel like if they actually got Southgate at some point,
[00:24:02] even David Moezodila from Moji, I would've been a little bit more. Aha, I mean, I'm better. I was like, I'm a contract with three-star players. So I was doing something. European trophy with West Ham, and you're getting Southgate. Exactly.
[00:24:17] That was the trophy, I mean, I was at least a Trophy. Levels guys, there's levels to this game. On that note, let's take a quick break on the other side. We build up to Belgium versus France, which is taking place in literally one hour from now.
[00:24:30] So by the time this episode releases, you'll know exactly what has happened, but we won't. So it's always fascinating when that happens. Plus we'll talk about some interesting stories with Guillermo Pappé, Kevin DeBroyna, and the world of transfers if we have time. See you on the other side.
[00:24:48] Welcome back to the Conflag Everybody, and as always, we begin the second half with your questions. Question. Question. Question. It's with Duck on a flag. Dude. Answer's also, huh? All right, the first question is from Heta.eshan, who asks us.
[00:25:07] How come there is no outrage against India versus Qatar match? Or have I missed any episode? I feel like you missed a total of two. I think you missed a total of two. So because I feel like we did. We've definitely outraged about that.
[00:25:19] If not fucking hell, man, I'm gonna ask you. Who needs to ask you? Very, you come outside. Clearly over the line, it should not have counted. It should have been a goal for me. Oh, that does not sound like outrage. That's what I feel. Yeah. Yes, thank you.
[00:25:32] Yeah, okay fine. Okay fine. If you're up here, you're all in the line. Fuck it, you're in the right place. You're a good man, man. Oh yeah. You can't even make a mistake. I mean, you've got in close because you hosted the world cup. Yeah.
[00:25:42] She was in your pocket. But still, how dare you? One thing, a cognizant, damn big. Huh? I'm not gonna let that go. Okay, that's how I have outrage. I have never stood. Mugge, I have never seen you say a bad word in your life. Much less cockling.
[00:26:00] I think this is the first time I've heard you say cockling. I feel like I haven't said this words in seven standard. Something. And you're in seven standard, you meant the animal, not the, yeah. For the core we're doing for our podcast, for our next leg outrage.
[00:26:17] Hashtag outrage. I'll bring something. Okay, then we have three different questions from the same guy. So okay. But I'll pretend as if it's different person each time. Okay. Then underscore, here in asks, English, I'm guessing we stand for England and not English. Yeah.
[00:26:35] Be that cool kid who studies last minute and gets good marks. But likes to friends about studying. Correct. Not really. I think in, be that, each of those who allow succulent teachers and then like, gets good marks because other kids are poor. Not because of kids.
[00:26:56] Other kids are faced dictatorship. Other kids are poor, Slavic countries. The qualification is a big deal. And then England breaks about that shit. That's who English is. No, I think, English is that kid who studied for the wrong exam and came.
[00:27:16] And then like two minutes before the final bell was going to ring. Someone's answer she just like flew towards him and then he wrote his name and people and gave it in one. Yeah. So like you were accurate. Yeah, that's a pretty metaphor.
[00:27:27] So that's what he is now another question by this time, by this time, by then underscore hiring. That's how you pronounce this guy's name says. Also any new exciting players from euros, you would like in your team. Akash, Akash, come let's go. Start with your.
[00:27:48] He's not the time. You're still the name of Akash. He's not. Salak, Ayyyyyyyy. Aton was about to euros. But this guy who's been lighting up the copa America, the Colombian guy named. The, Trump's, Trump's, Trump's, Trump's, Trump's, Trump's, Trump's, Trump's, Trump's, Trump's, Trump's, Trump's, Trump's, Trump's, Trump's, Trump's,
[00:28:17] you remember that iconic highlight now the name's born James Rodriguez. Exactly. No, I don't know man. I haven't been watching the Euro's enough to have found it. I think he's not going to come to Evitino, Galti said.
[00:28:38] Maybe he'll take a chance to have it because James Rodriguez came to Evitino. James Rodriguez Samuel Eto has played for Eritan. Carl O'Ancelotti. The manager of the most number of Champions League I'm guessing. I don't know, I'm some record he must have. Yeah.
[00:29:00] He's got a lot of Champions League. Rafa Benitez also had a Champions League. Say what you will about the guy, quite well accomplished. He did want to go to Liverpool, who was the second side. He ended up at the side of town again.
[00:29:14] But that doesn't matter, he has managed an Evitino team. The Evitino players have played for Evitino. There is no scene. What can happen? There is a possibility that Nicol Williams can join Evitino. That's true. That's everything I have. Looking forward to him coming on loan to Evitino.
[00:29:37] I don't know. I've never found anything. Nicol Williams is good. I honestly don't think it's going to be a good team. No, no. We're not even going to get into this conversation because for the past five weeks, Fabrizio Roman was also meeting the same thing.
[00:29:57] We were talking to Mattis Dilek. Negotiations are underway. He's also rehashing the same tweet. There's no update. He's not a journalist. And we have a final question from Veen, And I'm sorry. But this Yamal and Museala is looking at his own goal. I think it's Lamal.
[00:30:26] No, it's Lamal. It's Lamal. It's Lamian Yamal. And it's Jamal Museala. So Veen and I'm going to say, You should have just said Yamal or Jamal. He's doing a good job. It's good. I know Sidhu has arrived. This is what happens when Inda wins the T20 World.
[00:30:50] It's a little bit of a cross over Hoja. I see. He's always used to be cooler two months ago. I've got happened. Everything's okay at home. Because you had hair two months ago and so did Mukesh and her. For different reasons, we make a toy.
[00:31:06] Our genetics have come into place. So you know, some total is that hair is being lost in this room. With that, I'm cool. And also going, yeah. But yes, and is that it? Or do we have a Zain and us go he right in with the fourth question?
[00:31:22] No, we're done. We're done. No, it's right. Thank you so much everybody. And all three versions of Zain and us go here in. For sending us those questions, You can write into us each week on our Instagram channels.
[00:31:33] Which is either a conflict pod and we will answer all your questions. The best of our knowledge, which I have to admit, is not a lot. Even though people on YouTube think that we are like we are. Athletics, they're expecting like hardcore stacks level. Analysis from us.
[00:31:50] Is that something that we can give guys? I can't. I can't. I can't. In words for minute, but if I take a deep breath, I can probably speak about 100 words per minute. So given it, I hope about 1.5 words per second.
[00:32:03] You guys probably need to remind me to slow down to a rate of 0.85 words per second. How those are statistics? I don't think those are the statistics they were looking for, but yeah, I will give you a statistic. There were three goals in yes, the raising in me.
[00:32:21] Three. No, it's absolutely. I mean, the math has been matched in this. And one of the teams won, but I'm not going to tell you all about the score was. That's true. That you all can feel these basic stats are all you can figure it out.
[00:32:38] But yeah, so let's talk about Germany was in Denmark, because Germany, not Denmark, how to say 2,0 victory. I have words and the aforementioned Jamal Buschiala or the Scotshikapal. I'm not saying a fantastic tournament. Definitely one of the players to watch out for.
[00:32:54] Definitely one of the players that Mukesh will hopefully come to Liverpool, but never will. So, uh, fantastic. But more than the football on show in that game, there were too many distractions that were happening in that game. Because the game was suspended for a short period of time
[00:33:09] because of a lightning storm. It fascinates me as an India. No, it fascinates me when Western countries go through like basic everyday shit and come to a standstill. Like there are times in Western countries where you can't really see the difference between the two of us.
[00:33:28] So, we can see the flash floods. For us, that is Tuesday on S.V. Road. Yeah. That was just like, I feel like if football is going to start doing half time shows then that's how you do it. You don't all this beyond saying all that.
[00:33:45] Nature is your half time. I feel like I just wanted them to continue because with the lightning storm, producers all over the world who are doing packaging for these world cup matches and are cutting to like intros and out pros,
[00:34:00] don't need to act like those lightning graphics in like editing software or anything. I'm like, what are you looking at? Jamal, musialas go to score a goal and there is a lightning strike then you cut to Harry that's the perfect transition. Yeah. That's, that's, but there were,
[00:34:19] there were, so there were a few um, Katari Katarold cup official streeting for, you know, water leaking from the stadiums and stuff like that and saying oh, I mean, you're also complaining about Katarold cup. And that was an amazing reply that said at least there's only rain falling
[00:34:39] and not under paid laborers. That that is just the worst thing a country can't be like, but what about that? Like, it's a water battery that is next level. Acha, you're saying that we don't have a fair labor practices.
[00:34:55] You feel like we're getting our labor to work in terrible conditions. Okay, you're blaming us for not having LGBT QI plus rights in our country and and executing them and arresting them and maybe even like killing them. But people look at just it's a panic. What about that?
[00:35:11] Like, that is next level. That is so fucking ridiculous. Yeah. Mental, mental. But no, it wasn't just the lightning storm. There was also a masked man who claimed the roof of the stadium and the game had to be stopped. For police to go and arrest it.
[00:35:28] Do you think that's how he's going to make his entry into tonight's game? Like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, it's a very big team. But no, yeah, that a lot of things, general security at the office is being quite there.
[00:35:57] Because we saw that in the Purchy process. Turkey game as well, six separate picture readers going to take selfies with Christian Leonardo. And I mean, as, as everybody in that stadium, Hacom seen the 90s, Cadbury's head. There is the new ad with reverse the rules.
[00:36:14] You don't know that ad, what the... Oh yeah. The iconic Cadbury ads. Which they remade with women's cricket this time. Yeah, they remade with women's cricket this time. But iconic ad, right? I just feel like if you are quick to run on the pitch
[00:36:27] then you have to do the weird dance that girl did in that iconic ad. You have to do that. Also please understand that, who ad made our co-op stuff? So, you can't really tell. Who hug me is like that? Oh anybody can beat them in a race.
[00:36:42] Oh, here the stewards will fuck you up. So please don't do that. Very, well in general I feel like Germany has not really done this equality of this tournament. Very, very well but it doesn't matter they're going to face pain now in the quarters.
[00:36:57] How do you see that game going through Germany or Spain? Because both these teams, I would say are the two teams who have performed through their potential in this tournament because none of the big teams have really performed. Except for Germany and Spain.
[00:37:09] And Germany was a team that was written off before the tournament. They were not in a good shape. I would say I would go as far to say that the Germany was a Spain game is going to produce the eventual winner of the... This is the tournament. Huh?
[00:37:26] Catch me in the first bowl there. Fucking finding Nemo, memory of a world-fifth. 10 minutes of what you said the same thing. No, I definitely feel like the winner of this game will give us a fight. I said that one minute of finals may anything come out.
[00:37:44] No, I'm going to be joking. You are so hot. Guys, this is a professional way. So don't expect at late-eclavage journalism from this budget. This is the level of our professionalism. Yeah. Yeah, but a few like Spain might make it because home pressure is never easy. Yeah.
[00:38:07] And I feel like Spain has been the more comfortable teams so far. Yeah, I feel like home win-games are going to end. Oh, yeah, but at the same time, don't you feel like how we had do it for such a day, they'll have do it for Tony.
[00:38:23] One hashtag will carry them. I don't know. Let's say that. I think that's the only option. The fact that I feel like because it's home support, Germany will make it through and also because like Spain's still a little younger team.
[00:38:40] I mean, I know most of them have played in the Champions League and the Undescent pressure in a little bit. But because there are also younger, they're not played with each other as much.
[00:38:50] Whereas I feel like Germany just seems more like a unit that's played with each other. While also, I feel like what both sets of players are well-versed. Prejudice situation, but I think how to play in the situation, they might not know fully.
[00:39:06] So you know, past that semester of through one that's a little extra Spain might make a few more mistakes. And I think because of that, Germany will capitalize and I think they'll make it through.
[00:39:18] I mean, on one hand, you have Tony Groosus about a retirement football on the other side. I mean, you know, who's struggling with homework? So that is the difference of age that is there between these two sides.
[00:39:32] It's a fascinating when I feel like Spain are going to make it go because while Germany have been good, they are, I feel like they're quite reliant on Jamal Moshi, whereas Spain has a lot more outlets for gold.
[00:39:47] Like this is Spain's side where even Almaro Murata scored in his first game. So if this Spain team, if you lose, there are few and take can get Almaro Murata scoring. Then there's no stopping the Spain side and we forget, we saw it this in Spain's last match.
[00:40:00] Also, we forget that Spain have Roddree. The guy who will always come in clutch and he did come in last time against George as well. George, he's taking the lead against Spain and Roddree. Yeah, as George, come on.
[00:40:13] But this is a guy who will come up clutch in every game where he has, I'm not already going to say that Roddree isn't clutch but it's George. Come on, it's George, it's George. That is quite a challenge. What is creature aquanat scale going to do?
[00:40:29] Well done, you got the pronunciation fairly right. That was that was as acceptable a pronunciation of it. Of course if we actually speak to any Georgians, there's no actually it's you have to go to the moment when you go from the beginning of the game.
[00:40:43] Yeah, yeah, a little bit of bile or anagee, only then have you said it properly. But yes, I feel like Spain are going to make it against against Germany. Let us know who you guys also think dear listeners, comment on our YouTube videos, comment on
[00:40:59] social media, call us on our line lines, comment on our house, scream out our name and tell us what you think that is also fairly acceptable. Right, in about 40 minutes from now it is going to be France versus Belgium.
[00:41:16] By how many goals do you think Belgium are going to get knocked out in this game because we know that they are? I think it's going to be like a two goal.
[00:41:27] Yeah, I think it's going to be a two-nil where like France goes two goals in the first half and then rule like a gentleman's agreement with a like okay, we can't have shoes so relax a little.
[00:41:37] Yeah, I mean there is a gentleman's agreement because Belgium also have a lot of Spanish speaking French speaking sorry people. So culturally quite close both those countries.
[00:41:51] Earlier in my pay of course was in a bit of a controversy. I mean he's name was dragged in a bit of a controversy because one of the all guys are going to do an a non-andrey as journalists missed a him for earlier on in the tournament
[00:42:05] and I love that with you. Fantastic. Yeah, because he's English accent is spot on. Yeah, and how he went from like French, flamish to to proper English, yeah, accent, you know what I mean?
[00:42:21] You know it was like perfect. Yeah, you just had to add in it at the end just to feel that way back. No, but I'm going to one Anna was talking to Belgium comedian for one video and
[00:42:33] he said that he's going to tackle Kylion and Muppie in the shins and then the Belgian F. I had to delete the video and they issued an apology to France and Kylion and Muppie. Kylion and Muppie was asked about this
[00:42:45] by a Belgian interview in his pre-manage press conference and Muppie just said, this was a perfect moment for somebody to say Andre and then to for Anna Doradoe. Fuck it. And now when you add the meme circle just continues over and over, it would have been fantastic but
[00:43:04] they lost it. Yeah, it's a pretty cool. I mean, it's like, it would have been cool if the teams were equal on people. But if you think, if you think the who is a cool response,
[00:43:20] what he said after he said, oh yeah, I heard about it. Many people talk about me. It doesn't bother me. He can have my shirt if he wants. Cut to call Palmer doing his code celebration. Absolutely cold Palmer behavior. Muppie isn't very happy with his mask though.
[00:43:39] He was talking about the production of his custom fit in mask. He said, each time there was something wrong, it's really difficult because it limits your vision and the sweat clogs up.
[00:43:48] Initially I felt I was in 3D and I had been invited to the Yoros as a VIP. I could see the people but it, but I felt like it wasn't me playing as soon as I can take it off, I will
[00:43:57] right now. I've got no choice. I can't play without it. It's really annoying, but it's not going to be an excuse because that's the only way I can play. I have to say thank you to
[00:44:05] the masks. I love it. Who thanks the masks guys? Like, I think someone like he's I feel like he's reached that level where he's like, what do what do normal even being you guys think? What do you guys thinking? But he's going to thank everything. He's going
[00:44:23] to thank the stadium. Thanks so much. Thanks to God. I think you guys meant to be humble and grateful as I get more feedback. And Rich, I mean, I resonate with the fact that
[00:44:36] he feels like he was called to the Yoros to watch as a VIP. It was nice of him to mention as a VIP. I'm not just like, I'm not just like, I'm not just going to get it. Now what he's used to
[00:44:48] because he's like, it's usually VV. I, I, P. Very very important, important person. Yeah. I didn't get what he meant. He's he's not there to watch the Yoros. No, but that's what he
[00:45:02] he felt like when he's wearing the mask, it feels like he is not actually playing and he's just watching. I don't know how that works because if it's going to limit your vision, buddy,
[00:45:14] it's not suddenly going to be Apple Lusion Pro. Like it is, it is, it's, it's, it's going to limit your vision. It doesn't enhance it. But he's being invited as a VIP resonates with Paul Pongpongpong.
[00:45:26] Because Paul Pongpong was being invited by the French F.A. to watch the game. That's how I'm doing it. I actually think these are the entire ticket. I feel like when I go to a theater, I'm not like
[00:45:39] Shara Khan invited me to watch the film. I'm not invited. I said, I'm part of it. With the blessings of Yosh Raj, instead of that one, he's a person like his well, this will be with Yosh. I find Raj themselves. I have, yeah, I enter a whole blessed
[00:45:59] blessed to be given this opportunity to watch. They are blessed to be given this opportunity. You can say, oh, you're welcome, Yosh and Raj. And films happy to say I have gone to beauty
[00:46:10] 500 rupees to the profits of Yosh Raj. I'm Raj. I guess the dividends are very, very soon. I feel like I am an equal stakeholder in this company. So I don't know if Paul Pongpong was actually invited
[00:46:26] or he just fought an expensive ticket because he could, he could. He doesn't have to look at agents to get the cheap ones. He can buy an expensive ticket. Speaking about Belgium, Kevin
[00:46:38] to Brian I was asked about his future at Man City. Of course, he has one year left on Man City court. Like he said, everybody knows I have one year left, but we will see what happened. I haven't
[00:46:45] spoken to anyone. I will have a quiet holiday that I will go back to Manchester City and then we will talk. If there is an offer, we will think about it. If there isn't, I will have to look for
[00:46:56] something else. Now he was asked about his links to Saudi Arabia because of course, the Saudi Pro League is very, very interested in getting Kevin to Brian out there and Kevin to Brian are being
[00:47:03] the honest footballer that he is saying, look I have more than enough money. I know that well enough. If a silly amount is offered later, then that's not for me. That's for my family, my friends,
[00:47:16] my children, my great grandchildren, my children's neighbors. He's gone into the big, I'm not the kind of guy who is going to play football for money. But my family is completely throwing them
[00:47:31] out of the bar and not just his family, he's got his children's neighbors. How important do you think it's the property price in Belgium going to be because everyone will be like Kevin to Brian
[00:47:43] together at their bus. They'll all plot her in the afternoon because there are added benefits to this. You get it. Also, it's a very nice way to be like because I'm like me, I have warned enough
[00:47:54] money for myself today but not you tomorrow, they after. He was this close to going like mutual friends he was this close for by the way, they don't have to be like or by retirement.
[00:48:12] That's what I'm thinking. That was left to happen. All I know, it is time to end this episode of the conflict. Thank you everybody for listening. If you like to get any touch with us,
