With the dust settled on a gripping group stage, Alec, Tomás and Alex look back at the highs and lows of the last two weeks. In that mission they're joined by tactics guru Alex Barker, European football expert at The Athletic.
Who's been the player of Euro 2024 so far? Have England been the biggest flops? And what tactical trends has the eagle-eyed Alex spotted in Germany?
After we pick our team of the tournament and look ahead to the last 16, there's a bonus second guest of the episode! Alec whizzes off to speak to journalist Bence Bocsák, author of ‘Rise of the Underdogs’, a new book about how the little guys of international football keep punching above their weight.
