Summary
Jimbo welcomes Charlie Eccleshare, Mark Carey and Dan Kilpatrick into the studio to reflect on Wednesday night's Champions League Quarter Final action, as well as look ahead to the return of the Premier League.
Paris Saint-Germain comfortably dispatch Liverpool 2-0 in the first leg in France, but will they rue their missed chances next week at Anfield? Or will it just be more of the same from Arne Slot’s side, who failed to muster a shot on target last night?
Meanwhile in Barcelona, red card drama means it’s a first ever victory for Diego Simeone at the Camp Nou, and a first for Atletico Madrid in 20 years. Their delight is Barca’s fury as Hansi Flick lets rip on the officials.
Plus the Premier League is back and Roberto De Zerbi’s first game at Spurs comes with it. Man City travel to Stamford Bridge while Arsenal host draw specialists Bournemouth.
Produced by Charlie Jones and Xavi Bird.
