34. 2002 World Cup: Dos a Cero, Goals of Gold & Byron's Blow (Part 3)

And to think the drama had not even commenced after the group stages...

The Round of 16 of the 2002 World Cup had it all: from the first instances of golden goal at a World Cup to continued upsets and some of the most controversial refereeing decisions ever made.

In this episode we dive deep into the USMNT's greatest WC victory in recent memory (8:10) and Italy's controversial exit at the hands of hosts South Korea and an Ecuadorian referee cum drug-smuggler extraordinaire (26:20). Then we touch upon Sven's Danish demolition (45:00) before covering more Brazilian samba and discussing who the real leaders of that squad were.

All of this and much more, including mentions of a JFK airport drug bust and Marc Wilmots, on this episode of Football In The 2000s!
