Football Weekly Extra: Madrid and Munich show their might

James Richardson is back, and he's got Barry Glendenning, Rafa Honigstein and Michael Cox for company on a stellar edition of Football Weekly Extra.

We start, with a bit of help from our friend Sid Lowe, by analysing the action in the first legs of the Champions League quarter-finals. Real Madrid trounced Galatasaray 3-0, Bayern Munich were ruthless in putting two past Juventus – but it's all a lot tighter ahead of next week's second legs between Barcelona and PSG and Dortmund and Málaga.

Next up, we return to the thorny issue of non-fascist fascist Paolo Di Canio's appointment at Sunderland, before looking forward to some of the games at the bottom of the Premier League this weekend, including the Nigel Adkins derby between Reading and Southampton and Aston Villa's trip to Stoke.

Football Weekly will be with you as usual on Monday - but if you can't wait that long, be sure to join us for Football Weekly (Very) Extra on Friday. Jimbo and Barry will be joined by Sean Ingle and Jonathan Wilson to discuss all the excitement of the Europa League – seriously – in glorious technicolour. Woof.

Still here? Then check out the worst free-kick, like, ever.
