On The Continent: Are Bayern the bottlers now?
•
As league seasons come to a close across Europe, Dotun, Andy and David have some huge stories to unpack.
After Valencia double down in their self-defence over the racist abuse aimed at Vinícius Junior, we discuss attitudes to racism in Spain and the shameful response from La Liga. We also react to ANOTHER Juventus points deduction which - surprisingly - has José Mourinho in a huff.
Plus, it looks like Bayern are about to let the Bundesliga slip out of their hands for the first time since 2012. Why has it gone so disastrously wrong for Tommy Tuchel?
