Liverpool’s dirty three points, tales from the Copa do Brasil, and more brave boys jump ship

Disappearing ballboys and peeing refs: it’s the magic of the cup in Brazil.

Jules, Andy and Jim are here to run the rule over last night’s action, as Jürgen Klopp hailed a dirty win for Liverpool, James Milner broke pre-historic stats, and Leo Messi spun his silk in Spain.

Elsewhere, we check in with the England U21s as another prospect bails on Gareth and discuss the extreme lengths Edward Woodward has gone to to get a seat and a prawn sandwich at Wembley for the FA Cup final between Sheffield United and Bournemouth. Plus, Andy Brassell’s tales from Thailand. Join us!
