Summary
Graham and Taylor take a look back at the 2022 Euros thus far. With every team having played at least one game, they get into the standout performers, tactical wrinkles, and major talking points that have dominated the competition thus far.
Group A - How did England put eight past Norway, and how much trouble might the Scandinavians be in when they take on Austria in their final group stage game?
Group B - Germany press their way into top spot, while Spain's lack of attacking prowess limited their chances against the Germans. Could Denmark spring a surprise in their upcoming match with Spain?
Group C - Draws ahoy! But Sweden and the Netherlands still looking strong!
Group D - Reports of France's demise may have been exaggerated... but second place is very much up for grabs!

| 0:00.0 | Hello, |
| 0:02.0 | Hello, everybody and welcome to the Total Soccer Show. |
| 0:24.3 | My name is Taylor Rockwell, and on today's episode, the women's euros are well underway. |
| 0:29.9 | Every team has had at least one match day. |
| 0:32.3 | Germany has now scored six and two games without reply, while the much-hyped Dutch and Swedes played out to a tie. |
| 0:39.2 | Reports of the French national team's demise were perhaps premature, but Spain and Denmark |
| 0:43.5 | have yet to live up to their pre-tournment allure. England put eight past Norway at full-time, |
| 0:48.7 | and it could have been even more by then. Joining me to round out today's podcast pairing, |
| 0:53.7 | it's Graham Ruffman. Hi, Graham. |
| 0:55.6 | Hi, Taylor. That was a very respectable Ryan Bailey impression. All it was missing, I think, |
| 1:00.5 | was a sexual innendo, and that would have been a Ryan Bailey performance to the tea. |
| 1:05.7 | I'm glad I didn't go the full Ryan Bailey then. That makes me happy, but it is just me and |
| 1:10.4 | Graham today talking about the women's euros. Graham, how has your soccer viewing schedule been this summer? I know there's still tennis in there, but I feel like I keep kind of making this joke halfway and not really talking about it, but for a summer in which we don't have the Men's World Cup, and I think I sort of thought, |
| 1:27.5 | like, how are we going to fill all the time? There's not going to be much to be discussed. It feels like we constantly have almost too much to be discussed. Yeah, I think transfer chat has kind of taken over because it seems like there's a lot happening in particularly the Premier League, and obviously it's been a big summer in MLS as well. but in terms of the actual soccer |
| 1:25.4 | obviously I've been dipping into MLS |
| 1:27.2 | but thank goodness for the women's euros and obviously it's been a big summer in MLS as well. But in terms of the actual soccer, |
| 1:44.7 | obviously I've been dipping into MLS, but thank goodness for the women's euros, because |
| 1:48.7 | after Wimbledon and after certain, the golf is this week, I'm doing some work for the golf, |
| 1:55.4 | but after those things are over, yeah, it's a death of soccer for a few weeks. So I'm very, |
| 2:00.0 | I'm very grateful for the women's Euros. |
| 2:02.0 | And it has been a brilliant tournament so far. |
| 2:04.1 | I was reading quite incredibly, there's been one fewer goal scored in this tournament |
