TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

Yacht-to-Dot. With 85-minute skill devotion. For everyone who's simply dotting about Alexa. Because if you can get it as far away from the goalie as possible, then he's less likely to save a goal.

So this is trivia-based and it's been a question-based about football, so I won't have any clue whatsoever. And it's been updated as I say. Alexa, open Top Bin. Hello, this is Top Bin, the ultimate trivia quiz for football fans.

Every day you face another Alexa user in an exciting football challenge. Who answers better to most questions wins the challenge. To provide you a more compelling experience, I need to know your name and the region that you live in. What's your name?

Robin. Your name is Robin, right? Yes. Okay, Robin.

Now, please tell me which county or region you live in. If you live outside the UK, please just tell me your country. Where do you live? Where do you live?

Sweet. I've saved your data and we're ready to play. Okay. First a bit of info on how it works.

There's a new Top Bin challenge every day. It's the five questions on football and you're pitched against a real opponent. Win and you get four points. Lose and you get one.

If it's a tie, you get two points. At the beginning of each week, you'll get seven lives. Try not to make too many mistakes as the wrong answer will lose your life. Take too long to answer and the skill will close and you'll also lose a life.

If this happens, just start the skill again and you'll pick up where you left off. Lose all your lives and the challenge is over. Don't worry, though. If that happens, I'll be there for you.

It's game time. Let's get started with today's challenge. Be very careful how you answer. Sunday counts as a special day and the points you win today count double.

If you win today's challenge, you'll get eight points. This could be decisive for your ranking. Your opponent is Finlay and lives in London. Kick off.

Question number one. Which national team won the 1984 Euro Cup? One, Denmark. Two, Spain.

Three, Portugal. Four, France. Three. Too bad.

That's the wrong. The correct answer is France. These four teams were the four semi-finalists at the competition. France eventually beat Spain in the final.

Your opponent Finlay made the right choice. Boo! You've lost a life. Now you have six left.

Question number two. Boagista in one of the historical Portuguese clubs. What are the official colours of the team? One, red and white.

Two, black and white. Again, it's going to be a big guess. Three, black and yellow. Ooh, that's a good one.

Four, blue and yellow. Three. Maybe I should just go for three every time. Sorry, that's wrong.

The correct answer was black and white. Your opponent Finlay got the answer wrong too. I wanted them to be like a... You've lost a life.

A B or a C. Now you have five left. Okay. Question number three.

Which club took the second place in the 2018-2019 season of the Italian Serie A? Oh, well, that'll be number three. One, Inter. Two, Juventus.

Three, Naples. Oh, again, that's number three, isn't it? One, Sterling. Two, Lukaku.

Not Sterling was. Three, Salah. Oh, yeah. Four, Fernie Nose.

Three. Oh, no. Oh, my strategy's playing off. Your opponent Finlay got the wrong answer.

Question number five. Okay. This is the last question of the challenge. Okay.

Stay focused. Okay, I am. Pep Guardiola won twice the Champions League during his coaching career. Which club did he win them with?

One, Manchester City. Mm-hmm. Two, Barcelona. Mm-hmm.

Three, Bayern. Well, of course. Four, Real Madrid. Three.

I didn't know you bit Guardiola. The correct answer was Barcelona. Your opponent Finlay gave the wrong answer as well. I just want to call Finlay.

I wonder if it's... The challenge is over. Okay. Let's check the scores.

Okay. You got two questions right. Okay. Your opponent Finlay got one correct.

Okay. Goal! Hip, hip, hooray. You won.

With today's win, you now have eight points in the ranking. Would you like me to remind you to take the top bin challenge each day? No. Would you like a recap of your stats?

No. Would you like a recap of your stats? No. Okay.

Come back tomorrow to play top bin and take on a new challenge. Okay. There you go. Updated with this kind of tournament idea.

But basically the same game. I like it. So, yeah. There you go, guys.

Top bin, if that's your thing. This is Robin signing off, and we'll speak again tomorrow. Feedback, comments, demos. The dot-to-dot podcast at gmail.com.
