Chris McHardy is away in the US of A for the World Cup, so Sean O'Shea and ex-Burnley and Republic of Ireland player Stephen Ward are in the hot-seats.


We look at all the latest World Cup results, including Curacao's first-ever goal in the Finals, Sweden's masterclass and Ivory Coast's dramatic late winner.


It's early days, but we also look at the best moments from the tournament so far, which includes the Netherlands' fans' synchronised shuffling.


Then there's a little detour from the big show for a look at the world of club football that keeps spinning: Real Madrid strengthens its ranks in a savvy financial manner, and Manchester United announces a new TV show that goes beyond the pitch.


All this and much more on The Score.

Monday Night Football: World Cup Special 

Sean O'Shea and ex-Premier League star Neil Taylor are on hand to talk about all of the results and stories colouring the World Cup this summer.

There's an early look at the race for the Golden Boot as Kylian Mbappe, Erling Haaland and hat-trick hero Lionel Messi open their accounts. Who else can rival these three greats?

Then we wonder where all the good goalkeepers have gone as there have already been some howlers so far. We also assess England's chances of a deep run in the competition as Thomas Tuchel's Three Lions kick-off their campaign.

There's even time for Neil Taylor to tell us what it's like to play in the US with Wales and getting humbled in a friendly by France.

Messi takes over the World Cup

Marc Archer joins Chris McHardy to look back at the world of sport.


We take in the greatest NBA Finals comeback of all-time as the New York Knicks pull off the impossible against the San Antonio Spurs. What. A. Game.


Then we stay stateside to talk to CNN correspondent Don Riddell about the build up to Thursday night's World Cup kick-off. Speaking of the world's greatest game, FIFA head honcho Gianni Infantino says we all just need to "relax". Hmm.


And Keith Waters from the Mena Tour joins us to discuss a new venture in golf.

The World Cup Kick-Off

Eddie Taylor joins Chris McHardy for another sport-packed episode of The Back Page.


The pair attempt again to get pumped for the World Cup... which is more difficult than it sounds. But they do land on some reasons to be cheerful.


Everton was slapped with a hefty fine for historical wrongdoing - could this have ramifications for Manchester City in the coming months?


There's no excuse for Ben Stokes' late-night drinking and fighting and he's been rightly stood down for England's next Test. However, some corners of the cricket world have defended him.


Real Madrid star Eduardo Camavinga didn't make the France World Cup squad... so he's heading to Harvard. Sticking in the states, we look ahead to Game 4 of the Spurs vs. Knicks in the NBA Finals.


We make some bold statements about what we think will happen at the World Cup - could Argentina go back-to-back?


And Eddie has another sporting quiz.
