Episode Description from the Publisher

In the last few months, Kylian Mbappe has been booed by his club fans, the target of racist attacks from a politician, and is the focus of global expectation, and yet he is gliding through this World Cup with a smile. He might have missed a penalty, but he also scored a screamer as he and France rolled into the semi-finals. Mark Schwarzer breaks down their campaign and then explains why he's "slightly disappointed" to see Ange Postecoglou heading to Saudi Arabia. Featured: Socceroos legend, Mark Schwarzer. To catch up on everything that’s making sports headlines recently, listen to more episodes of ABC Sport Daily,’ hosted by Patrick Stack on ABC listen or wherever you get your podcasts, and get in touch with them on social media via @abc_sport.
