Erling Haaland's half century and the differing expectations around World Cup qualification

A little later than usual, Musa and Ryan chat about some results from the weekend (03:59), including some WSL, Frauen Bundesliga and more. They then move onto some of the men’s World Cup qualifiers, beginning with Erling Haaland reaching 50 international goals in 46 games for Norway (07:58) and his inevitability as a striker. There’s also chat about how the expanded World Cup has had some positives, seeing sides like Cape Verde qualify for the first time (18:58), before wrapping up on a discussion about how important the qualifying campaigns of teams like England, Germany and Spain are when predicting their tournament form (24:34).
