Summary

After suffering another embarrassing early exit, Dotun, Andy and Lars Sivertsen wonder if Juventus’ struggles should have been expected. Don’t worry though, we still find time to laugh at Andrea Agnelli.


Elsewhere, Ajax fell hook, line and sinker for Benfica’s rope-a-dope while PSG’s love affair with Lionel Messi and Neymar might be over sooner than we thought.

Welcome to another episode of on the continent you're one stop shop for

0:06.0

everything to do with European football. I'm Dotton Adibio. I'm Andy Brassel and I'm

0:10.4

Lassi Watson. Today's show is a land of the giants of European football. The

0:15.1

mighty Jive, or Jive, shaken, stirred and humiliated by Unai Emery's Villarreal,

league success PSG's alters have fallen out of love with Messi and Neymar for

their Champions League exit. Let's start off with the mighty Jive.

0:45.0

It might be I say they were according to our producer Charlie. They were mugged

0:51.8

by Villarreal. I think that's a fair assessment, isn't it? Yeah, well they
