On this episode Pete, Sids and Tom bring the curtain down on an unforgettable six-week journey across the 2026 FIFA World Cup, recording their final tournament episode from a New York City pub after witnessing Spain crowned world champions.

The trio react to Spain's 1-0 World Cup Final victory over Argentina, discussing why Spain were deserved winners after conceding just one goal throughout the entire tournament. They break down Argentina's defensive approach, the controversial scenes that overshadowed the final, Lionel Messi's quiet performance, and debate whether England missed a huge opportunity after their dramatic semi-final exit.

Looking back on an incredible summer across the USA, Mexico and Canada, they revisit the biggest moments of the tournament—from exclusive behind-the-scenes access inside the England camp and Peter Crouch receiving his England Legacy Cap from Harry Kane, to visiting the iconic Estadio Azteca, meeting LeBron James, travelling across North America, and recording the podcast from unforgettable locations.

The episode also reflects on England's World Cup campaign, Jude Bellingham's emergence as one of the world's elite footballers, the standout players of the tournament, favourite matches, funniest stories from the road, and why this has been one of the most memorable experiences the team has ever shared.

To finish, the Paddy Power Predictions League reaches its dramatic conclusion as the final standings are revealed, crowning this year's champion and confirming who must face the dreaded forfeit.

A fitting end to an incredible World Cup adventure filled with football, friendship, unforgettable memories and plenty of laughs.
