Champions League semi-finals are here and a refereeing scandal in Italy

1 tim 5 min28 april 2026

Jimbo is joined by the Euro crew of James Horncastle, Tom Williams, Pol Ballus and Seb Stafford-Bloor to look ahead to the Champions League semi-finals and discuss the latest football news from around the continent.


It's down the last 4 in Europe's premier competition with PSG V Bayern the pick of the semi's on Tuesday, before Arsenal travel to Atletico Madrid on Wednesday.


Italian football is in meltdown as a refereeing scandal overshadows the weekend when Inter were hoping to seal the Serie A title. This comes 20 years on from the Calciopoli scandal and just a few weeks after the national side's failure to reach the World Cup.


In Spain, Real Madrid drop points again and will be hoping to avoid handing the champions-elect Barca the title in the upcoming Clásico. In Germany, Bayern have the title wrapped up and are going for a treble, while across the border in France, PSG look to have seen off Lens and are now 6 points clear at the top.


Plus Moment of the week and Tom's marathon weekend.


Produced by Lucy Oliva and Jesse Howard.
