Show Notes
Ian is joined by Musa Okwonga for the first 'Wrighty’s House' of Euro 2024, coming to you direct from Berlin. We start away from the action, though, by paying tribute to Kevin Campbell, former Arsenal and Everton striker, who has passed away at the age of 54. Jude Bellingham scored the only goal of the game as England labored to a 1-0 win over Serbia. There’s praise for how Marc Guéhi acquitted himself, some notes for Phil Foden and Harry Kane after rare wayward performances, and Ian and Musa discuss whether the Trent Alexander-Arnold midfield experiment should be repeated. 'Wrighty’s House' is live in Los Angeles at the El Rey Theatre on July 26. More information and tickets can be found here. Host: Ian Wright Guest: Musa Okwonga Producers: Roscoe Bowman and Jonathan Fisher Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
