2024 is breathing its last and it’s now time for me to do the thread of my best barbecue and outdoor cooks from the last year. Starting with this incredible dry-aged rib of beef from last January. Mount up.

A disturbing amount of the commentary around this game is focused on the reliance (and courage?) of the city players and their performance through the adversity of their club being found guilty of cheating wholesale for over a decade. Nauseating.

Mbappé, Olise and Dembélé probably the best attacking force in the tournament up until last night’s catastrophe. The combined rating for all three from l’Équipe is less than Dani Olmo’s rating.

🚨 Exclusive: The White House made a direct call to FIFA to ask Gianni Infantino to review Folarin Balogun’s red card. FIFA approached for comment and referred to the findings of its independent committee. FIFA sources insist White House influence could not affect the decision due to the powers contained in Article 27 and the independent nature of the disciplinary panel.
