Me, Him & Football | Ep 30 | FA Cup shocks, UCL English Slump, World Cup Politics, Europa League
Episode Description
Football from a couple's perspective!
One of us lives for football and the other is just trying to keep up! So whether you're a football fanatic or just here for the fun, there's something for everyone. Join us for laughs, debates, and plenty of learning along the way.
On this week's episode, we dive into a massive FA Cup shock as League 1's Port Vale knock out Premier League Sunderland! We also dissect a dismal week for English sides in the Champions League—with only Aston Villa securing a win across all European competitions, is the Premier League actually "the best in the world"?
We get serious discussing the intersection of sports and politics: from Haitian players facing US visa issues to the Iranian women's team seeking asylum in Australia. Plus, with Iran potentially out of the World Cup and tensions rising, we ask: can you ever truly keep politics out of the game?
Linda is learning about the Europa League, we have our weekly Quiz, and we look ahead to the Spotlight match: Man Utd v Aston Villa. Finally, we update the scores for Couple v The League and give our GW 30 predictions!
