Yeah, that was me. That was me. I had a message from my brother. He called me and was dying laughing.

He said, I could hear you right through the TV. So I hope mom didn't hear it. Okay, good. I

needed that confirmed. To be fair, he was pretty fucking amazing. From Apple News and Metal

Arcmedia, I'm Brendan Hunt. And I'm Rebecca Lowe and this is After the Whistle. Yeah, it is.

The Minder, there will be adult language. From you. Eh, today we cover the exciting group matches

as the battle for the round of 16 continues. Germany, Croatia, Spain, Japan, Morocco, who you?

Nobody will also look forward to some upcoming games to keep your eyes on. And finally, my humble

Chicago heart jumps for joy as a special guest Steve Kerr joins the show. You do not want to miss

this one. Let's get to it, shall we? Yes, please.

Rebecca, here we are. First of all, hello. Hello, how amazing is the World Cup?

It is like one third of a very famous American breakfast cereal mascot trio, Crackling.

It is absolutely Crackling. These last two days have just been phenomenal. We're coming off

the completion of Group E. Today, we're in Germany, played Costa Rica and Spain, played Japan,

and all four teams had a chance of advancing to the round of 16. I did watch the Spain, Japan game.

For me, the big headline just coming out of that game, Japan winning by two goals to one,

coming from behind again. They've now been Germany coming from behind. Spain coming from behind.

Now the two one goal, Brendan, have you seen the footage the cross was out? Yes. Surely the

cross was out. I have been sent multiple images. How many of those have been photoshopped? I don't know.

There is one image of course that shows it way out, but that is from behind the ball.

So you do have to kind of like get your brain shifted. But then I've seen one. Goodness only

knows from where this has been taken. A drone, some bloke, just hanging out above the stadium,

from above, which looks like the slitherist slitherable slither has kept it in.
