On The Continent: Messi takes Argentina to the summit, Morocco’s story so far, and Portugal’s special new gaffer

Dotun, Andy and David relive an extraordinary night for Lionel Messi and Argentina as they thwacked Croatia to reach the World Cup final. While Messi summons the spirit of Zinedine Zidane in 2006, we discuss how Lionel Scaloni and the supporting cast have turned things around since defeat to Saudi Arabia. We also explain why Portugal’s match-up with José Mourinho is a terrible idea and we preview the big one tonight! Can Morocco do it?
