Rob Gilbert and Michael Edgley are joined by The ABC's Stephanie Brantz and former Socceroo Scott McDonald to revel in the Matildas and Olyroos flying starts at the Tokyo Olympics, with both sides successful in their opening outings.

The Matildas group was also flipped on its head with the all-conquering USA side going down 3-0 to Sweden. Jonathan Tannenwald of The Philadelphia Inquirer looks into where things went wrong, and if they can turn it around.

Finally The Athletic's Roshane Thomas looks ahead to West Ham's Premier League campaign - after years of mediocrity, can Moyes' side back up the improvement of last season?

With the usual contributions from Willem van Denderen, Dean Hennessey and Derek Dyson.
