On the podcast today: France leave the panel pondering if there’s any point in everyone else sticking around when Kylian Mbappé and co look this good. Everytime you looked up Bradley Barcola, Ousmane Dembélé, Michael Olise and Mbappé were streaming forward. It should have been more than three with Olise denied an all-time great World Cup goal.

Elsewhere: Erling Haaland scores late on to put Norway through to the last 16 where they will meet Brazil. It wasn’t a classic, but the goals were all great

Plus: Mexico are relentless in the Azteca, they look very ominous for whoever they might face in the last 16 … on that note the panel preview Wednesday’s games, including England v DR Congo, and answer your questions.
