Summary
The FIFA World Cup is almost here, and once again the nation dares to dream. Can England finally end the wait for a second World Cup triumph, or will the ghosts of tournaments past return to haunt them? From 1966 to today, we look back at England’s rollercoaster relationship with football’s biggest prize, discuss the key players, the contenders, and rate their chances of finally bringing it home. Along the way, we revisit some unforgettable sporting memories, including one of the most controversial moments in football history – Diego Maradona’s infamous “Hand of God” goal that still gets people talking decades later. And as if that wasn’t enough, Suzie reveals why former football hardman Vinnie Jones owes her a favour that’s been outstanding since 1996! Football nostalgia, World Cup predictions, sporting legends and plenty of laughs – all packed into this week’s episode. ⚽🏆🎙️ Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/not-another-couples-podcast--6337216/support .
