Is the league phase in the Champions League truly significant? Hector Flores and Edward Robles dive into this hot debate, exploring the impact of experience, momentum, and tournament format on team performance.

Hector argues that the league phase matters, citing examples of traditionally strong teams like Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. He emphasizes the importance of Champions League experience and how it affects outcomes. Edward leans towards preferring the group stage format but appreciates the opportunity for underdogs to compete.

The discussion touches on recent upsets, the role of penalties as equalizers, and the challenges faced by teams new to success like Bayer Leverkusen. It also examines the parallels with American sports playoffs and questions whether Liverpool's recent performance indicates they're not a "tournament team."

Is FIFA planning to expand the World Cup to 64 teams? Hector Flores dives into the controversial proposal for the 2030 World Cup and why it's a bad idea. Plus, the unique format for the tournament's 100th anniversary.

The 2030 World Cup will celebrate 100 years since the first tournament. Opening matches in Paraguay, Uruguay, and Argentina honor the event's origins. However, the main hosts are Portugal, Spain, and Morocco. Hector questions this format and suggests Morocco could have bid for 2034 instead.

FIFA president Infantino is considering expanding the World Cup to 64 teams, up from the already increased 48-team format for 2026. Hector strongly opposes this idea, arguing it would diminish the tournament's exclusivity and make qualification too easy for some regions.
