NRL legend and devoted Socceroos fan Josh Mansour on England's World Cup loss - how did it all go so wrong?

View descriptionShare
 

England were minutes away from a World Cup final, then Tuchel pressed the self-destruct button. Messi did Messi things and Argentina turned it around. How did it happen?

Olan is in the UK trying to get over the loss, so Kat Haddad jumps into the host chair to unpack England's heartbreaking semi-final loss to Argentina, and the fallout from one of the biggest games of the tournament. The dust has settled and we've heard more opinions than ever, but there's still more to say. 

NRL legend and host of UNSCRIPTED Josh Mansour joins Kat to analyse the game and debate: 

  • How did Thomas Tuchel get it so wrong? 
  • How have Spain snuck under the radar into the final? 
  • And is this the biggest missed opportunity of the modern England era?

We then look ahead to Sunday's World Cup Final between Spain and Argentina - Europe's champions against the defending world champions. Will Lamine Yamal finally step up?

Plus, how does this World Cup compare to previous years? Is it just too American?
