Scoring records, maternity matters and remembering Rensenbrink
Mani Djazmi, Pat Nevin and Heather O'Reilly discuss the week's biggest stories as we hear from Anita Asante and Vincent Kompany at the launch of FIFPro's Global Player's Council
Mani Djazmi, Pat Nevin and Heather O'Reilly discuss the week's biggest stories including Canada's Christine Sinclair becoming international football's record goalscorer.
As FIFPro launch their Global Player's Council, Chelsea and England's Anita Asante talks about the challenges they want to tackle in women's football, while Anderlecht and Belgium's Vincent Kompany says 'something has to give' to ease the congested fixture calendar in the men's game and insists the make-up of boardrooms must change if football is to address its' racism problem.
Plus after the death of Rob Rensenbrink, his former Netherlands and Anderlecht teammate Arie Haan joins us to remember the two-time World Cup Finalist.
