In this episode of the Designated Players Podcast, we are back and giving our full group stage recap. In the episode, we have no script! We're going group by group and recapping the results and asking some questions on why the groups finished as they did. We talk about what lead to the success of Japan and Morocco, and what led to the downfall of teams like Belgium and Denmark. Let us know what you thought and how you think the group stage went! Recorded on: 12/5/2022 Let us kno...

Rog and ESPN's Herc Gomez cast an eye back to the USMNT's World Cup Campaign and Round of 16 exit against the Netherlands. Plus, what the team needs to do moving forward and why we as a football nation shouldn't just accept exit at this stage of the tournament.

We've got the Netherlands, Argentina, Croatia and Brazil through to the quarters. How they did it, how Brazil got so good with a broken team, what might be some ways for Van Gaal to approach Argentina, were we unfair to Scaloni, a lot going on here.

Greg and Belz review the action -- the three big lapses, the tactical setups and adjustments, fatigue, pressing in a 4-3-3 vs setting up in a less confrontational 4-4-2, and our continued lack of final third cutting edge -- all within the context of a World Cup that was all-in-all a real step forward for the USMNT.

After 17 days of non-stop action, Jimbo, Duncan Alexander, Tim Spiers and Daniel Storey take stock after another huge day at the World Cup. Portugal smash the Swiss 6-1 to progress to the quarter-finals, on an evening where all of Fernando Santos’s decisions paid off. Including dropping Cristiano Ronaldo for hat-trick hero Goncalo Ramos. Morocco become just the 4th African team ever to reach the last 8 of the World Cup. As Maher Mezahi explains, a star is born in manager Walid Regragui. But where now for Spain, who have very little to show for their thousands of passes. Plus former Netherlands winger Ryan Babel joins us to preview the Dutch team’s clash with Argentina on Friday and explain why he rapped about Louis Van Gaal. Produced by Charlie Jones. RUNNING ORDER: • PART 1: Portugal 6-1 Switzerland (02.00) • PART 2a: Morocco beat Spain on penalties with Maher Mezahi (13.00) • PART 2b: Highlights from the first 17 days (27.00) • PART 3: Netherlands v Argentina preview with Ryan Babel (36.00) SIGN UP TO THE ATHLETIC TODAY FOR £2 A MONTH FOR 12 MONTHS • theathletic.com/totally Hosted on Acast.
