Stadio: A Football Podcast

Musa’s on his travels, so there’s a bit of chat up top about him leaning into a Stadio bit.
Then he and Ryan chat about this weekend’s FA Cup fifth round (07:17), which saw another amazing result for Port Vale, who knocked out Sunderland. Southampton also caused an upset, with a late win at Fulham, while Arsenal got past an impressive Mansfield side.
They round up the rest of the results, which saw Liverpool, Chelsea, Leeds and Manchester City progress, before a quick trip to Germany (22:13) to shout out some results and chat briefly about the news that Julian Brandt will leave Dortmund at the end of the season.
Then it’s time to turn the attention to the Derby della Madonnina (30:13), where Milan completed the double over Inter for the first time since 2010/11, reducing the lead at the top of Serie A to seven points, with ten games to go.
Finally, there’s a Champions League look ahead (40:52), with the round of 16 first legs taking place this week.

After some chat up top, Musa and Ryan begin with Bayern’s 3-2 win at Dortmund (06:02) to open up an eleven point gap at the top of the Bundesliga. They then round up some other results around Europe, before heading to the Premier League (19:24).

There’s chat about Arsenal’s win over Chelsea, where all three goals were set pieces, Manchester United going third, as well as some of the other results, most of which also contained set pieces. There’s also chat about Arne Slot’s comments about… set pieces (40:31), and how they’re making the Premier League tougher to watch.

Finally, the new law changes were outlined by IFAB this weekend, so there are some thoughts on the ones that will be introduced at this summer’s World Cup (51:41).

There’s some important admin up top, but once that’s all out of the way, Musa and Ryan turn their attention to the Premier League title race once more after what felt like a very important few days.
They begin with Arsenal’s 4-1 win at Spurs in the North London derby (03:53), which saw them maintain a five point lead at the top of the Premier League. There’s chat about braces for Eberechi Eze and Viktor Gyökeres and the response of Mikel Arteta’s side, following the draw at Wolves in midweek.
There’s a bit of chat about Spurs’ position in the table and whether they can realistically go down (24:29), before heading to Manchester City’s 2-1 win over Newcastle United on Saturday (30:30), plus some thoughts about the title race in general.
After a quick round-up of the rest of the Premier League, they wrap up results elsewhere (49:07), including La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A, Ligue and more!

The Derby d’Italia this weekend felt crucial in the race for this year’s Scudetto.
Musa and Ryan chat about Inter leaving it late to beat Juventus (05:03), who were down to ten for the entire second half at San Siro, after a very controversial second yellow for Pierre Kalulu. It took a brilliant winner from Piotr Zieliński to win the game and send Inter eight points clear of the top, thanks to Napoli’s draw with Roma.
In the middle of all that, there’s a big detour about manager’s first touches and player showboating (17:39), before chatting about Igor Tudor becoming the Tottenham Hotspur men’s interim head coach (34:53).
Finally, there’s a round-up (45:33) featuring La Liga, Bundesliga, FA Cup, a rare case of a spiritually onside goal actually counting and Mo Salah doing his bit for content.

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).
