0:00.0	Hello, this is international football commentator Derek Ray, and you're listening to to Ranks FC. It's your favourite football podcast, and we are in the
0:29.1	thick of international season now. After all of those Euros preview episodes last week, we thought
0:35.1	we'd switch continents. And we're taking a look today at
0:38.5	the copper America, working our way through the groups and each of the teams to find out
0:42.8	who's going to come out on top in this tournament. My name's Jack Collins and I'll be your host day and
0:47.3	joining me as ever, Mr Dean Jones. How you doing, mate? I'm good, mate. Yeah, I've had to
0:52.7	switch gears again in my brain for this one. We've got, I'm in Euros mode, I'm good, mate. Yeah, I've had to switch gears again in my brain for this one.

0:57.5	I'm in transfer window mode.

1:34.7	side of the pond, I can actually grab euros earlier in the day and then catch copper
1:39.9	America as it's happening. And I'm really excited, Marjorie. Yeah, absolutely. It's going to be
1:44.7	a credible tournament. I'm really, really looking forward to it. Well, let's get stuck into group
1:49.9	A, Dean, and you're going to take us away with the current world champions, Argentina.
1:55.9	Yeah, exactly, mate. I mean, what do they say? Getting to the top is hard, but staying there is even harder, right?
2:03.5	So you've got Argentina here, World Cup winners, the reigning copper America champions.
2:10.6	They've won this competition 15 times.
