With Mbappe and Haaland scoring braces and Messi going one better with a hat-trick - Keane declares this as a tournament that Kylian Mbappe can “take hold” of before debating whether Haaland or Zlatan is the better player. Keane praises former team-mate Luka Modric and warns England about his playmaking abilities coming to the fore in the heat of the United States and also gives some brilliant insight into the mentality of Tuchel’s captain Harry Kane after he worked with Kane as a youngster at Tottenham. Rio gives his advice to the players who are in line to make their tournament debut for the Three Lions and discusses the BBQ he threw for the famous names of Beverly Hills who pitched up to the Airbnb to enjoy their evening overlooking the Los Angeles sunset.#worldcup2026 #WorldCup #FIFAWorldCup #WorldCupLA #LionelMessi #CristianoRonaldo #Messi #Ronaldo #BeverlyHills #LA #LosAngeles #RioFerdinand #RobbieKeane #Five #FootballPodcast #BehindTheScenes #ThreeLions #England #KylianMbappe #ErlingHaaland #ZlatanIbrahimovic #HarryKane #ThomasTuchel #LukaModric #Tottenham #Spurs #StrikerMentality #LAStyle #SunsetBBQ #SoccerStories #exclusiveinterview Subscribe: http://bit.ly/15QO9WE Rio Ferdinand Presents: rioferdinandpresents.com Rio Ferdinand Presents Instagram: https://instagram.com/rioferdinandpresents Rio Ferdinand Presents Twitter/X: https://x.com/RioMeets Rio Ferdinand Presents Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rioferdinandpresents Rio Ferdinand Presents TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@rioferdinandpresents Rio Ferdinand Presents Threads: https://www.threads.net/@rioferdinandpresents Rio Ferdinand Instagram: https://instagram.com/ri…","meta_description":"Rio invites his old team mate Robbie Keane to his Airbnb to discuss the big-name strikers who have started so impressively at the World Cup.
