Frank Arnesen and Søren Lerby are back with another video call, where the World Cup continues to be the main topic of conversation.

The two former national team stars are impressed by the setting for the World Cup in the U.S., but at the same time are puzzled by the exorbitant ticket prices, which make it difficult for ordinary soccer fans to get into the stadium. They also discuss how commercialized the World Cup has become and whether things have gone too far.

In addition, they provide an update on the World Cup matches, where late goals, disallowed goals, and close contests have provided plenty of entertainment. Norway, Brazil, the Netherlands, and Morocco are among the teams being analyzed, and Frank and Søren share their predictions for the upcoming matches. Lionel Messi also receives yet another round of praise for performing at the highest level.

The segment wraps up with a listener question about the Netherlands’ reputation for rough play. This prompts Frank and Søren to reflect on their own experiences with top-level Dutch soccer, where they share stories of hard tackles, elbows, psychological tricks, and a soccer culture that’s completely different from what we see today.
