Jimbo's joined by Adrian Clarke and Sasha Goryunov to look back on an eventful first evening of round of 16 ties at Euro 2024. We begin in Dortmund, where there was lightning, thunder and torrential rain - but it didn't stop Germany from getting the job done in a 2-0 victory over Denmark which wasn't without VAR drama. Seb Stafford-Bloor checks in from a wet and wild Westfalenstadion. Then to Berlin - where holders Italy crashed out of the tournament following a pretty dismal showing against Switzerland in a 2-0 defeat. Michael Cox and James Horncastle are on hand to bring reaction - and ponder what next for the Azzurri and their manager Luciano Spalletti. Finally, it's all eyes on the next two round of 16 ties coming our way on Sunday - with Spain taking on Georgia after England face Slovakia in Gelsenkirchen. Kristian Flak drops in to bring us a flavour of the mood from Bratislava ahead of the game. Produced by Lucy Oliva. Theme music by JJ Bull. RUNNING ORDER: • PART 1: Germany 2-0 Denmark with Seb Stafford-Bloor (2.55) • PART 2: Switzerland 2-0 Italy with Michael Cox & James Horncastle (14.15) • PART 3a: England v Slovakia preview with Kristian Flak (31.20) • PART 3b: Spain v Georgia preview (41.15) SIGN UP TO THE ATHLETIC TODAY FOR £1 A MONTH FOR 12 MONTHS • theathletic.com/totally Hosted on Acast.

Musa and Ryan begin with the dispute between Canadian national team players and the Canadian Soccer Association over pay equity and the federation announcing budget cuts ahead of this year’s World Cup (06:53). Also, since we last spoke, the European Super League has got a new website, so there’s obviously talk about the competition that no one seems to want, apart from the people trying to form it (13:04). Finally, there were some dodgy VAR calls in the Premier League (30:03), Real Madrid are world champions, and Manchester United look set to push Chelsea all the way in the WSL.

Finally, they touch on Bielsa’s Leeds United getting promoted to the Premier League, Nigel Pearson’s sacking with two games left, and World Cup winner Andre Schürrle retiring at the age of 29 (42:25).
