England v Croatia, Brazil’s Shaky Start & Living in New York! | Stick to Football 133

Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by Sky Bet.

Gary Neville, Roy Keane and Ian Wright have arrived in New York for the World Cup, and there has already been plenty of action both on and off the pitch!

We begin by looking back on their first few days in the USA, from sightseeing around New York to watching the New York Knicks finally win the NBA Championship. What have been the team’s favourite moments and funniest stories so far?

Gary then sparks a debate as the team create a combined XI featuring England’s current World Cup squad and the side that reached the semi-finals in 1990. Are you picking Harry Kane or Gary Lineker? Jordan Pickford or Peter Shilton?

Attention then turns back to the football as we review the opening matches of the tournament. Has Brazil’s slow start against Morocco changed opinions, and are Germany now among the favourites after an emphatic win over Curaçao?

With England’s opening game against Croatia just around the corner, the team preview a crucial clash for Thomas Tuchel’s side. How important is finishing top of the group, and could defensive inexperience prove costly?

ITV7 returns to test the team's knowledge, before we finish with some of your community questions.
