  Episode 576: We need to talk about Racing

  Sep 18, 20261h 15m

  This week Sam, Chris, Andrés and English Dan do something Dan would rather not do, and discuss Racing's recent form. The group stage standings are starting to look meaningful now, and while they're not mathematically out of it, it seems unlikely Racing will be involved in the knockout stage. We also have a look at the Copa Sudamericana and Copa Libertadores quarterfinals, which have concluded since we recorded with Estudiantes reaching the semis, where they'll face Flamengo.
