Episode notes

The domestic season comes to a close and rounding up all the drama, it’s Matt Davies-Adams, Michael Cox, Sasha Goryunov and Daniel Storey.

Real Madrid win a 14th European Cup but that story is secondary to the treatment of Liverpool fans prior to the final at the Stade De France. Sasha and Daniel relay their own personal experiences of an uncomfortable night in Paris.

On the pitch, we praise Ancelotti, Courtois and reflect on where Liverpool go from here, particularly as the frontline may need bolstering with Sadio Mane seemingly on the way out.

Forest are promoted to the Premier League after 23 years away as Huddersfield feel aggrieved with decisions not going their way. But is the gap between the 17 Premier League teams and the teams coming up bigger than ever?

Andrew Todos tells us about Ukraine’s preparations for their World Cup play-off with Scotland on Wednesday.

Plus the panel try to make sense of Ralf Rangnick’s brief time at Old Trafford.
