Hello Max here, just before we start this podcast, something went wrong with my equipment in part one, but was fixed for part three, and I'm just about to record part two.

So who knows, but fingers crossed. Anyway, the discussion is of high quality and everyone else sounds great. So I hope you enjoy it.

This is the Guardian.

Hi, pod fans, Max here. Barry's here too. Hello, football weekly is supported by Sainsbury's.

Sainsbury's is teaming up with comic relief this Christmas to help nourish the nation and tackle food poverty.

They're encouraging customers to become super secret centers by donating to comic relief in store and online.

And what's more, Sainsbury's are matching your donations to comic relief up to the value of one and a half million pounds. That's great for a generous.

I know it should be a secret, but what would you get me if it was a secret center?

Well, I think I'd kill two birds with one stone Max. I'd buy you a copy of inverting the pyramid.

I'll wrap that up, give it to you by inverting the pyramid by our friend, Jonathan Wilson. Then I would keep the receipt and I would put that in a card and I would send it to him.

And I suspect he would get more joy out of the fact that he's going to make a couple of pounds out of me than you would from having to find a space for that on your shelf to gather dust.

While it sits there unread. I did get to pay to 171. So anyway, as I was saying, be a super secret center with Sainsbury's by rounding up your bill or gifting key food items.

In doing so, you can help provide meals and support for those who need it most now and in the future.

Happy Christmas. Say happy Christmas, Barry. Happy Christmas, Barry.

Hello and welcome to the Guardian football weekly. One of the biggest upsets in World Cup history Saudi Arabia beating Argentina to one and entire squads from the Saudi league coming from behind for a deserved victory.

We'll get reaction from the ground and from Buenos Aires. And as a pod that's been highly critical of the Saudi regime ask if it's still fine to enjoy that giant killing.

The Sock Arruz briefly threatened to upstage the Saudis morning work until Rabiou is Rabiou is Rabiou scored and assisted as Olivier Jaroob became France's joint highest scorer.

And elsewhere no goals as an impressive Tunisia hold surely even darker horses now Denmark and Guillermo Acheuier in his fifth World Cup. The hero saving from Robert Leventowski who just doesn't get the service at international level.

10 minutes from the end of that game Cristiano Ronaldo left Manchester United what will Wilson write about when the season starts again all that for leaps here to keep the late shift lawyers busy and a full Papa John's preview your questions and that's today's Guardian football weekly.

On the panel today Barry Glenn Denning welcome.

Hi Max. Hello Nikki bandini. Hi here. Hello Felipe Claire.
