Adriano Del Monte

Italy's Azzurri on Wednesday (AEDT) face another decisive World Cup qualifier - this time against Bosnia-Herzegovina. The stakes are immeasurably high: win and they’ll exorcise the years of pain since their last World Cup; lose and that pain only compounds further. Adriano Del Monte (ESPN, beIN Sports et al.) returns with tension set to reach fever pitch.

Craig Foster

The Matildas have fallen to Japan 1-0 in the final of the Women’s Asian Cup, remarkably for a third time. Former Socceroos captain Craig Foster returns to assess the success of the tournament - which broke all manner of records - and reckon with the legacy of a group that have achieved greatly, but still lack a crowning glory.
