Sophie Penney is with The Athletic's Laia Cervello Herrero and Jacob Whitehead to react to Jorge Vilda being named manager of the Morocco women’s team just over a month after being sacked by Spain in the fallout from the World Cup scandal.

Why did Morocco choose to hire a manager still under investigation? Is Vilda a good coach? And what impact will it have on the players?

Plus, The Athletic’s Caoimhe O’Neill joins us to figure out why Liverpool can’t win the Merseyside derby at Anfield after losing for the third time in a row.
