33. 2002 World Cup: Chaos In The Groups, Red Guus & Beck's Revenge (Part 2)

Seoul, Korea. May 31, 2002. France - Senegal. Let the chaos commence in 3... 2... 1... gol de Boupa Diop!!!!

The group stage of the 2002 World Cup had it all. In this episode we dive into the surprising and disciplined host nations, the hellish atmosphere in the port city of Busan and the magic of The Guus. There is talk of Brazilian Samba, David Beckham getting the Argentines back for 1998 and the usual chaos of a favored Italian side sabotaging themselves.

One of the last tournaments which could still surprise us did so from the first match and did not let up. How did Senegal, Turkey, the USA, Korea and even Belgium cause such stunning upsets? And what on earth happened to Argentina, Portugal and France?

All of this and much more, including mentions of Pierluigi Collina and Markus Merk, on this episode of Football In The 2000s!
