Harry Kane’s Curse & France's Secret Weapon Is a Factory in a Forest

from The Football Show · host Break FC & BIZBROS

What a day at the World Cup. We recorded late because we watched every single game... and it was packed. A witch doctor said he'd curse Harry Kane before England-Ghana, and then the Three Lions couldn't score on a team ranked 65th (I'm not saying it worked... but I'm not NOT saying it). Messi became the all-time leading scorer in World Cup history. Ronaldo answered every doubter and made history at 41 as the first player ever to score in six different World Cups. Haaland sent Norway to the knockouts for the first time since 1998... then told everybody France is gonna win the whole thing. And then we went deep on France's real secret weapon... a player factory in a forest called Clairefontaine. Plus my own academy story from Barcelona.
