Italy’s heartbreak, Potter’s redemption - and City v Liverpool in the FA Cup

Jimbo is back in the chair and joined by Duncan Alexander, Adrian Clarke, Natalie Gedra, with special guest Frida Fagerlund as the final six teams to play at this year’s World Cup are confirmed.

It’s disaster yet again for Italy after penalty heartbreak in Bosnia & Herzegovina. The Azzurri become the first ever former winners to miss three World Cups in a row. Where do they go from here?

There’s shootout joy for Czech Republic though who beat Denmark, Sweden see off Poland and Turkey are heading to the World Cup for the first time in 24 years after winning in Kosovo.

DR Congo and Iraq are also through to the group stages, and there’s another disappointing performance from England at Wembley.

Plus, it’s FA Cup Quarter Final weekend with Man City hosting Liverpool as domestic football returns.
