The Gaffer & Hooligan continues its 2014 World Cup coverage with a bit of a twist. Joined by RNO's Canadian Soccer writer and stats/analytics expert Sam Gregory we take a group-by-group approach, answering some important questions from a Statistical/Analytical perspective.
In Segment 1 "The First Round" we cover Groups A-D, amongst the questions tackled were can Chile make it out of what can be considered a "Group of Death"? and whether an out of form Shinji Kagawa is a major concern for Japan?
We wrap up the show with Segment 2 "Last Call" examining Groups E-H, dissecting questions like is Argentina's firepower going forward enough to win despite a weaker defense? and can Germany finally shed its bridesmaid tag?

This week we're joined by Aaron Nielsen, RNO's statistics and analytics expert to discuss the CAF (African) and AFC (Asian) regions. In Segment 1 "The First Round", we take a group-by-gorup approach to the African nations, looking at their key players, weaknesses they may have and take a particularly close look at the success of two nations that have chosen to go away from the foreign coaches that most teams follow in the modern game. We wrap up the show with Segment 2 " Last Call" going over the Asian region, looking at the German, Dutch and EPL influence on some of the teams, the coaching situation and how key players will impact their success.
