We’ve had our first big slip of the World Cup! Today, Pete, Luke and Jim celebrate Cape Verde earning an impressive point against Spain (and a few Instagram followers at the same time).

Messrs Speller, Campbell and Moore are back with more dynamic World Cup dispatches. Last night, Germany poured a metric boatload of salt all over those little Curaçao slugs and cast shuddering doubts over this expanded tournament format – then again, Curacao scored, so 48 teams maybe good? Elsewhere: weird decisions from Ronald Koeman handed unsurprising package Japan a draw, the Rocky Curse strikes again and we saw a rare Muted International Celebration™ in a dominant Sweden win. Plus, we learn more vital info about the Mexican duck - and Marcus has decided its culinary-related fate. Come and watch England with us!

Stevey Clarke's Scots are up and running at the World Cup! John McGinn with the goal that clinched the win. Definitely worth the 90 minutes of sleep, eh Jim? Pete, Jim & Vish (with the assistance of a few cans of Carabao) pulled all-nighters and were richly rewarded by some cracking football. Plus, Guy Mowbray unzips Brazil & Pete re-ignites a very confusing feud with Tim Cahill.
