On the podcast today: their first ever game at a World Cup. Cape Verde hold Spain to a 0-0 draw after an utterly heroic defensive effort. Sid Lowe joins us to ask if this is just an early blip or if Spanish fans should be concerned.
Elsewhere in Group H, Saudi Arabia cling on to claim a point against Uruguay. Marcelo Bielsa looks on ruefully from his bucket as his side missed several chances in the second half.
In Group G, Belgium need Romelu Lukaku to help them procure a point against Egypt, while New Zealand’s Elijah Just gives them the lead twice. they can’t hold on against Iran.
All that, a preview of Tuesday’s action and your questions answered.
