Show Notes
Apologies for the late show today, but we’re finally here to chat all about another big weekend in the Premier League title race, which saw Manchester City come from behind to win away at Liverpool, for only the second time under Pep Guardiola. After shout outs for the WSL, PSG v Marseille and a few other results (04:21), Musa and Ryan head to Anfield (11:23), which saw another unbelievable free-kick from Dominik Szoboszlai give Liverpool the lead, a great comeback and the world being cruelly robbed of one of the silliest goals of the modern era. That meant the gap was the same at the top as before the weekend, following Arsenal’s impressive 3-0 win over Sunderland on Saturday (30:52). Elsewhere, Aston Villa dropped more points, Manchester United may never lose again, Crystal Palace ended their winless streak and Cole Palmer scored another first half hat-trick. In Germany, Bayern and Dortmund teased a title race (48:13) and St. Pauli got a much needed win. Finally, there’s a round-up of La Liga and a bit of chat about Ademola Lookman’s move to Atlético Madrid (53:12). A reminder: Southbank Centre live show! March 1st! With special guest Nish Kumar!

After shouting out the only place to begin, Musa and Ryan chat about Manchester City’s trip to Anfield (06:56), where they defeated Liverpool, in the first game back since their guilty verdict was announced. The focus isn’t much on the game itself, but more on the reaction at and around the game, the weirdness it uncovered for the Premier League season and what it might mean going forward. In part two, they move onto Freiburg being top of the Bundesliga (34:49), after Bayern and Dortmund both dropped points on the weekend, as well as the amazing job Julian Schuster has done since succeeding the great Christian Streich. There’s also a bit of La Liga chat, most notably the drama in Real Madrid’s 1-0 win over Villarreal, plus lots more. Tickets for our next Southbank Centre show are on sale now, get them here!

As we head into the extended men’s international break, many teams will be welcoming it, while some will be wishing there were more club games this week. It’s hard to know which is the case for Atlético and Real Madrid, as Musa and Ryan discuss another home win for Diego Simeone’s side and another impressive Madrid derby (04:45). José Mourinho brought a print out to the press conference and for a second it felt like the first time he was in charge, attempting to distract from a less than stellar performance from his side. They then move onto Serie A, including a brilliant top of the table clash between Roma and Inter (30:38). There’s also Premier League chat, with impressive results and performances from Brighton and Brentford, who inflicted 3-0 defeats on Arsenal and Chelsea respectively. Plus, there’s Ligue 1, Bundesliga and more! Tickets for our next Southbank Centre show are on sale now, get them here!
