Aussie Breaks Football Twitter As Twitter Breaks Aussie Football

Paul Okon, Luke Wilkshire and Richard Bayliss join David Weiner to dissect a tumultuous week in Australian football dominated by the sacking of Matildas boss Alen Stajcic five months from the World Cup, and the Socceroos' penalty shootout escape in the Asian Cup to reach the quarter finals. But we kick-off with a feel-good story, and hear from Nate Patrick, whose Twitter thread went viral across the planet; he tells us about a crazy 48 hours since posting a story about his parents meeting Paul Pogba and Nemanja Matic and having their photo taken with them - and having absolutely no idea who they were. As always, there's much to talk about from abroad, and in the Premier League, headlined by Tottenham's injury woes, Maurizio Sarri's Chelsea power play and Jose Mourinho finally confirming the story of the day he hid in a laundry basket to sneak into the Chelsea dressing room while banned.
