Ireland’s epic comeback, Scotland’s Denmark decider + can Brazil win the World Cup?

Jimbo welcomes Natalie Gedra, Daniel Storey and Tom Williams into the pod after a phenomenal international weekend.

The Republic of Ireland complete a remarkable comeback in Budapest to keep themselves in the World Cup and into the play-offs. Troy Parrott is the hat-trick hero. Gavin Cooney from The 42 was there.

Similarly Scotland looked dead and buried after an hour in Greece on Saturday but they now have a huge clash with Denmark in Glasgow on Tuesday. Win the match and the Tartan Army will be heading to a first World Cup since 1998.

England won plenty of matches - all of them in fact - on the way to qualification as they end the campaign with a 2-0 victory in Albania. And Norway make it 8 wins out of 8 as well with a stunning 4-1 victory at San Siro against Italy.

Plus Natalię has been with the Brazil camp this week - can they actually go all the way and win a first World Cup since 2002?
