OTB SPORTS BREAKFAST: World Cup playoff guide | Italy's precarious situation | Armagh's rise

Eoin Sheahan and Johnny Ward took the reins for Thursday morning's #OTBAM.

We had a packed show this morning. You can listen to the full podcast below.

We opened the show with a deep dive into the World Cup play-offs ahead of the knockout ties on Thursday evening. Some of the heavy hitters of world football feature and Sheahan broke down some of the biggest games including Portugal vs Turkey, Italy vs North Macedonia and Wales vs Scotland.

Paddy Agnew was on the line to take an in-depth look into Roberto Mancini's preparations for the clash with North Macedonia in Palermo. He also gave his thoughts on the growing list of Irish players making the decision to join Serie A. Will it bring about an Irish revival in interest in the Italian game?

Ross Hamilton joined the lads over Skype for a tactical breakdown of Ireland's fortunes in the Six Nations. Hamilton discussed the differences in approach between Ireland and France and what Ireland need to focus on as they prepare for the World cup.

Oisin McConville spoke with Sheahan about his role as Armagh's under-20s coach. McConville outlined the aspects of coaching he enjoys the most and the tactical developments in the GAA in recent times.
