On this episode, Patrick and Hayden discuss the UEFA Champions League Semifinals. Lamine Yamal was incredible, but Inter Milan feel confident they can defeat Barcelona after a 3-3 draw. PSG kept Arsenal scoreless for a 1-0 win, but were Arsenal better than you might think? To close the episode the guys talk Darwin Nunez. What's his skillset, what teams could be good landing spots for him, and should clubs take a risk for the potential huge benefit? Enjoy!
