Wales make international football look easy and fun. Why can’t we do this?

 

We are joined by Gabriele Marcotti to talk about Italy and whether anyone can stop them. Roberto Mancini’s squad have betrayed ancient national traditions of starting tournaments slowly and never scoring more than two goals in a Euros game. What exactly are they playing at?

Plus we try and work out what kind of goal Ken actually does like, and make a brief detour to Keys and Gray’s Qatari HQ.
