Musa and Ryan begin with some fun grassroots football chat before turning their attention to Serie A (06.03), where just two points separate the top six. They start off by chatting about Inter and Napoli’s 1-1 draw at San Siro, thanks to goals from Scott McTominay and a Hakan Çalhanoğlu thunderbolt. They then head to the Premier League, where Liverpool’s win over Aston Villa took them five points clear (21:16), an impressive Brighton ensured Manchester City’s poor run continues (29:09), Ipswich and Wolves got their first league wins of the season, and it ended all square at Stamford Bridge. Finally, there’s a quick roundup of the Bundesliga (40:30) and La Liga (40:52).

There were two huge games between Spanish and German giants in the Champions League this week, so Musa and Ryan begin in Barcelona, where Hansi Flick performed a master class against his old side Bayern thanks to a Raphinha hat trick (02:19). The night before there was an equally enthralling game in Madrid, where Dortmund surrendered a two-goal lead to lose 5-2 to Real Madrid in the Bernabéu, where Vinícius Jr. took the plaudits and Nuri Sahin was left ruing a premature substitution (15:53). They then shout out some other results from match day three (27:19): Aston Villa is top of the Champions League, Liverpool is second only on goal difference, Lille completed a double over Madrid teams and the new format is maybe starting to heat up.
