Episode 41: Boca edge closer to the title, Racing win again at last,&upcoming World Cup qualifiers - a podcast by Sam Kelly

The forty-first episode of Hand Of Pod is introduced by a real-life professional Argentine footballer, Crystal Palace goalkeeper Julián Speroni. After his dulcet tones, we discuss Boca Juniors' continuing march to the league title, and Racing's first win in six matches on Saturday night, as well as other weekend action including a hideous broken leg at Unión, and a derby win for Lanús (which means they need just a point to completely ensure qualification for next year's Copa Libertadores). Attention then shifts to the upcoming round of World Cup qualifiers and Alejandro Sabella's squad selection, which is starting to annoy us a bit. Towards the end, Ralph Hannah tells us about why he's going to be meeting Paraguay and Vélez legend José Luis Chilavert on Friday, and we discuss some of the great man's finest moments (you'll find a couple of videos on the HOP blog, http://handofpod.wordpress.com).
