Listen in app
Jimbo has Sasha Goryunov, Mark Carey and Seb Stafford-Bloor alongside him for your daily dose of Euro 2024 reaction.
There was late drama as Portugal snatched all three points in a 2-1 win over the Czech Republic courtesy of a stoppage time goal from super sub Francisco Conceição. Tim Spiers was in Leipzig and joined us at the final whistle.
Elsewhere, Turkey and Georgia produced the game of the tournament so far in a thrilling encounter in the pouring rain in Dortmund - with teenage superstar Arda Güler scoring a wondergoal as part of a 3-1 victory for Vincenzo Montella's side.
We take a closer look ahead to Wednesday's action and the second matchday for Group A and B - including the small matter of Scotland v Switzerland. Jordan Campbell stops by as we gauge the mood ahead of what could prove to be a must win game for Steve Clarke's side.
Produced by Lucy Oliva.
Theme music by JJ Bull.
