Throughout UEFA Euro 2024, Mark "Rivo" Rivers and Richard Brant will be discussing the tournament in Germany, from looking ahead to the festival of football to dissecting and reviewing England's performances as 24 teams bid for European glory.
On this episode, Rivo & Rich look back at England's late late show vs Slovakia and discuss performance vs results at the elite level. Rivo talks about Jude Bellingham's mentality and quality of strike plus importance of being able to play in different positions with recent example of Bukayo Saka playing 3 different positions in 1 game.
Rivo & Rich then look ahead to the Euro 2024 quarter-finals and look across the pond to couple of ties in the Copa America's last 8 too plus the pair discuss the differences between a BBQ and a picnic.
