When "Don" McTominay met the Pope, Inter's Champions League dream & myth-busting with Sarah Storey

By Global

Ahead of this weekend's Champions League final, Gabby and Mark chat to Italian football writer, James Horncastle, to figure out why Inter Milan are so underrated despite making their second Champions League final in three years and what happened when the newly dubbed Don "Scotto" McTominay met the Pope!

Britain's most decorated Paralympian, Dame Sarah Storey, joins us to explain her mission to help other athletes going through the menopause. She's teamed up with Kirsty Elliot-Sale, Professor of Female Endocrinology and Exercise Physiology at Manchester Metropolitan University, to extend the careers of female athletes and bust some myths along the way.

Plus, Gabby and Mark react to Mary Earps' shock retirement from international football, and the debate around sexist scheduling at the French Open.
