Nuno to Spurs & EURO 2020 Round of 16

In the latest episode of the Festival of Football Podcast we discuss Nuno's appointment as Spurs manager and the round of 16 games in Euro 2020. 

The lads started talking about the recent appointment of Nuno Espirto Santo as the new Tottenham Hotspur manager. Henry actually called this on a previous podcast and Billy didn't like the idea then. He still wasn't best pleased with the appointment, especially if Nuno brings all of his old players with him. The last thing Billy wanted was Neves, Adama and Jimenez turning up at Spurs. Henry felt Nuno could even be gone by xmas if results dont go his way, something no Spurs fan would be surprised. Its fair to say Nuno was not Levy's first choice but the fans would have to just get behind him now. 

As part of this discussion the boys then spoke about Rafa at Everton and Arsenal transfers woes. Will Rafa be a success at Everton? Listen to find out the lads views. 

The lads then went on to discuss the round of 16 games from the Euros. The results were,

England 2 0 Germany FT
Sweden 1 2 Ukraine AET
Croatia 3 5 Spain AET
France 3 3 Switzerland AET Switzerland win 5-4 on penalties.
Netherlands 0 2 Czech Republic FT
Belgium 1 0 Portugal FT
Wales 0 4 Denmark FT
Italy 2 1 Austria AET

The main talking point was around the England vs Germany game. Both lads had bad memories of facing the Germans at major competitions. However this as different with England coming out on top and deserving to win. Goals from Sterling & Kane sealing a historic win over the arch enemy.
