Jimbo welcomes Julien Laurens, Duncan Alexander and Pol Ballús onto the pod after night 1 of the Champions League.

The English are winners on the continent on Tuesday with Aston Villa getting their first goals of the season in Bruges and Erling Haaland making it 59 goals in 59 Champions League appearances in Porto.

Mourinho's Madrid beaten - and the Champions League returns!

The Champions League is back and it’s time for a Euro Show preview. Pol Ballus is back on the pod alongside James Richardson, James Horncastle and Tom Williams as Real Madrid go into Matchweek 1 of the Champions League having lost for the first time since the return of Jose Mourinho. Troy Parrott scores the only goal for Real Betis to leave Barcelona three points clear at the top of La Liga.  Their Champions League opponents Inter Milan are one of three teams near the top of Serie A to profit from late goals at the weekend, but it’s not good news for Fabio Grosso who’s become the first manager casualty of the season: sacked after just three games in charge of Fiorentina. PSG take on Yaya Toure’s Slovan Bratislava, who’ll hope to continue the Parisians’ domestic misery after Monaco win 2-1 at the Parc des Princes.  In Germany, Bayern Munich fail to score in a competitive game for the first time in 59 matches. And what’s going on with Julian Alvarez at Atletico Madrid? They’ve got a trip to Anfield next.    Producer: Xavi Bird   TIME CODES:   4:00 - Moments of the Week 12:00 - Champions League Matchweek 1 preview 31:00 - Serie A with James Horncastle 41:00 - Ligue 1 with Tom Williams 49:00 - Famous sons in Eredivisie 52:00 - La Liga with Pol Ballus Get in touch with the show:   Email: [email protected] X: @thetotallyshow Instagram: @totallyfootballshow TikTok: @thetotallyshow BlueSky: ‪@totallyshow.bsky.social   The Totally Football Show is with you four times a week this season, giving you all the football news you need to know - and plenty that you don't.
