Football joins the #BlackLivesMatter protests

Season 5 · Episode 45

jeudi 11 juin 2020Duration 08:32

With the return of football on the horizon, focus shifted away from Covid19 and to worldwide protests following the death of George Floyd in police custody. As the football community responds, there's a sweeping realisation that football, like so many other areas of society, must do better. Elsewhere, Man City launched their appeal against the FFP allegations leveled at them by UEFA, and their fans joined the Muppets.

So all the friendlies and curtain raisers are done, and the super early transfer window is closing/slamming shut as I write this.

A pitch invasion, an own goal, teenage wonderkid, dodgy VAR decision, goalkeeping howler AND a decent performance from Paul Pogba - the final match of this World Cup had a whole bunch of things you rarely see, all in 90 minutes.
