Summary

On David’s flight from Atlanta to Miami, he was introduced to Yuma and Caled, two well-travelled football fans heading home to Florida.  David is then joined by the Lopes family just hours after Cape Verde’s heroic display versus World Cup holders Argentina. Finally, David describes the spectacle that was Mexico versus England in Mexico City’s historic Azteca Stadium, while also touching on the off-pitch spectacle of Folarin Balogun’s postponed suspension.
