Six hours until the Azteca. England vs Mexico. Everyone's nervous. Nobody's going to bed early. Here's what's inside: 🔥 Hottest of Takes — Matt has breaking news on Balogun's red card being rescinded and goes straight after FIFA's transparency problem. Pete did altitude research for this podcast and it shows. Johnny goes 2-1 Mexico. Everyone is concerned about Declan Rice's hamstring ⚖️ FIFA, Trump and Balogun — the red card gets overturned 90 minutes before kick-off. Trump thanks FIFA publicly. Pete, Matt and Johnny on what it says about how football's governing body makes decisions under pressure 🏔️ The Altitude Problem — Pete has done the research and it is not reassuring. The Azteca is 7,700 feet above sea level. Unacclimatised players, fatigued legs, hamstrings under pressure. Johnny would very much like no hammies off the bone please 🇧🇷 Norway vs Brazil — The Arsenal Stakes — Gabriel, Martinelli, Odegaard. Three players, two teams, one knockout game. Pete and Matt work out who they'd rather see go through and why 💸 Monga Goes To City — Arsenal walked away, City went over valuation, and the lads give their verdict on whether Berta called this one right 🔮 Predictions — Pete goes 1-0 England, Declan Rice free kick. Matt goes England to progress. Johnny goes 2-1 Mexico and has a horrible feeling he might be right Subscribe at patreon.com/theArsenalOpinion for ad-free episodes and support the show.
