Late Goals and El Clásico<br />
DF: You’re listening to the Learning English Through Football Podcast.<br />
Hello everyone and welcome to the show for all those who love the <a href="https://languagecaster.com/football-glossary-the-beautiful-game/">beautiful game</a> of football and who want to improve their English. My name is Damian and I am based in London where the weather is definitely getting cooler and the clocks have gone back an hour last weekend meaning that I am now 9 hours behind Damon, the other member of the Learn English Through Football Podcast team. Of course, Damon is in Tokyo, Japan. What’s the weather like where you are? And what time difference is there between where you are and the Learn English Through Football Podcast team (in London or in Tokyo!)? By the way, happy Diwali to all those who celebrate – you might be able to hear some fireworks going off in the background; there are lots of celebrations here in east London.<br />
