<p>It felt like a weekend of broken hearts all around football, but Musa and Ryan begin with Manchester City’s win over Chelsea in the FA Cup final (02:12), to secure a domestic cup double and Pep Guardiola’s 20th trophy as City boss.</p><p>Chelsea were quick to counter the disappointment, as it was announced that Xabi Alonso will take over as manager in the summer (12:39) and that’s where the bulk of today’s show is focussed.</p><p>There’s enough time to chat about Celtic’s late win over Hearts (31:34), to secure their 14th title in 15 years in dramatic fashion, as well as a few other shoutouts.</p><p>Also, Musa did a new piece for the Kickback Soccer newsletter, which you can read <a href="https://the-kickback.ghost.io/first-touch-26-35/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a>, and tickets for our July live show, with Nish Kumar at the Southbank Centre, are available <a href="https://www.southbankcentre.co.uk/whats-on/stadio-live-with-nish-kumar/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a>.</p><p>For more podcasts, ad-free and in full, plus access to the Stadio Social Club and much more, you can become a Stadio member by signing up at <a href="https://patreon.com/stadio" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">patreon.com/stadio</a>.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
