  Six Goals Not Enough For Malaysia

  Oct 2, 202641 min

  Malaysia thrashed Singapore 6-0 at the FIFA ASEAN Cup and, for a few giddy minutes, thought they had booked a final against Thailand. However, Indonesia playing Bangladesh at the same time, struck twice deep into stoppage time to win 9-2 and edge Harimau Malaya out on goals scored. With Malaysia now querying exactly how much time was added on, the panel weighs whether it was anything more than football at its cruellest. And is there still a brighter future for a side that has quietly come a long way?All that and more, including Manchester City's guilty verdict on 114 charges and Portugal coping just fine without Ronaldo, on this week's Just For Kicks!Image Credit: EPA/MAST IRHAM

  City Found Guilty of 114 Charges

  Sep 28, 202643 min

  Eight league titles, three and a half years of legal wrangling, and one very expensive army of lawyers later, the verdict is in. Manchester City have reportedly been found guilty on 114 of the 115 Premier League charges against them, just a week after this very show declared the day would never come. With no punishment announced and an appeal already on the way, we play judge and jury. Everton and Nottingham Forest owned up and still lost points, Juventus were sent down in 2006, so how hard should the hammer fall on the Etihad? A giant fine, a points deduction, relegation, or an asterisk that no record book can erase from fans' memories?All that and more, including a five-goal thriller between England and Spain and Greece spoiling the party in Germany, here on Just For Kicks!

  Klopp's Germany Debut

  Sep 25, 202644 min

  Two of club football's most decorated personalities made their international debuts in Jürgen Klopp and Xavi's first meeting in charge of Germany and the Netherlands ended all square at 1-1. The Dutch were left aggrieved after Germany played on with Brian Brobbey down injured and Felix Nmecha scored, before Cody Gakpo's stoppage-time leveller spared their blushes. Xavi has at least ditched the back three, while Klopp named two separate squads in search of his runners. But can Florian Wirtz, hardly a natural Klopp player, find a home in the German boss's heavy-metal press?All that and more, including Cristiano Ronaldo's creaking chase for 1,000 goals and a bulging listener mailbag, on this week's Just For Kicks!

  Arsenal Stunned by Brighton

  Sep 21, 202640 min

  Brighton’s 3-0 demolition of reigning champions Arsenal brought their title defence back down to earth, ending the Gunners’ perfect league start and exposing them to a Brighton side that pressed with intensity and attacked with purpose. It was also the second time since 2023 that Brighton had beaten Arsenal 3-0, a result that puts renewed focus on how the league’s leading sides deal with Fabian Hürzeler’s high-energy approach.All that plus a wider conversation around player welfare following Raheem Sterling’s recent troubles on this episode of Just For Kicks!

  Derby Drama at Old Trafford

  Sep 14, 202644 min

  The 199th Manchester Derby lived up to the billing in terms of headlines, as City secured victory in a controversy-filled match. The solitary goal, courtesy of Erling Haaland, was initially deemed offside before being given. The Premier League's refereeing body, Pro Ref, later admitted there was an "error of judgement" in awarding it. Prior to that, City were reduced to 10 men after Phil Foden was sent off for lashing out at Bruno Fernandes. But should Man Utd's skipper be sent off as well for also kicking out at Foden? We unpack what happened over the weekend and elsewhere, including Hull City's good start to the Premier League season, as well as Villa's and Spurs's less-than-stellar results, on another episode of Just For Kicks!Image Credit: EPA/ADAM VAUGHAN
