The Irish football team: a consistent source of disappointment, or a consistently bracing source of perspective on life? Ken and Murph disagree, just as they disagree on many things about the game. 

One thing they do agree on is that in international football, a superhero isn't necessary, but as Wales and Norway demonstrate, it sure helps. 

Richie Sadlier and Gavin Cooney join us to analyse what happened in Yerevan. Why can't we create chances? For all the supposed improvement are there any signs of the development of real confidence? Is there anything to be said for another system change?

Plus there's wild talk of "creativity", "passing triangles" and the need for "De Bruyne crosses".

Bookmakers #19 - L’autrice du mois : Jakuta Alikavazovic
Née à Paris en 1979, Jakuta Alikavazovic est une romancière multirécidiviste suspectée à juste titre de détournements d’attention, de trafic d’énigmes et de corruption d’imaginaires. Elle a reçu en 2008 le Goncourt du premier roman pour « Corps volatils » (L’Olivier) et, en 2021, le prix Médicis de l’essai pour « Comme un ciel en nous » (Stock). Elle a aussi publié d’habiles romans pour la jeunesse et une histoire d’amour inoubliable, « L’Avancée de la nuit ». Mais qui est donc cette érudite « d’un naturel inquiet », souvent vêtue d’un imperméable de détective privé, pour qui « internet est l’ennemi juré de l’écriture », par ailleurs chroniqueuse enjouée pour « Libération » et traductrice anglophone d’Eve Babitz ou de David Forster Wallace ? Pour le savoir, y a qu’à écouter Jakuta.

(2/3) Louxor j’adore
« Esme ne pensait pas à ses origines et ses origines, croyait-elle, ne pensaient pas à Esme. La réalité était légèrement différente. » Dans « Le Londres-Louxor », son deuxième roman de littérature générale paru en 2010 aux éditions de L’Olivier et vendu à 2400 exemplaires, Jakuta Alikavazovic suit la jeune Esme Vitch, qui signe des livres qu’elle n’a pas écrit, dont la sœur a disparu, et qui cherche la paix dans un ancien cinéma devenu refuge pour la diaspora bosniaque depuis le siège de Sarajevo. Il faudra à Esme le temps du roman pour trouver sa voie et sa voix. Dans l’intervalle, elle tombera amoureuse (et réciproquement) d’un critique littéraire exigeant, en quête de bouquins « qui lui résistent », qui ne peuvent pas « prendre instantanément la forme d’une anecdote ». 
C’est l’effet, heureux et rare, produit par les ouvrages de Jakuta Alikavazovic ; difficile de voir, au premier regard, quelles charpentes soutiennent ses intrigues bizarres, d’où proviennent ses personnages récurrents d’intellectuels vaporeux, son goût du clair-obscur, ses phrases brèves et millimétrées, l’élégance de ses références, ou les « trous » de ses fictions – dans lesquelles notre agence de voyages recommande de se jeter, sans risque.

The second of a three-part special series investigating <a href="https://www.economist.com/interactive/united-states/2022/07/14/critical-race-theory-is-being-weaponised-whats-the-fuss-about?utm_campaign=a.io&amp;utm_medium=audio.podcast.np&amp;utm_source=checksandbalance&amp;utm_content=discovery.content.anonymous.tr_shownotes_na-na_article&amp;utm_term=sa.listeners" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">the fight over critical race theory</a> and asking how the anti-CRT movement became such a powerful new social, legislative and political force. The debate has become centred on how race, gender and sexuality are discussed in public schools. In this episode, The Economist’s Tamara Gilkes Borr, a former public-school teacher, puts the politics to one side to find out what is actually happening in America’s classrooms. When critics point to the evils of CRT, they are often talking about programmes like ethnic studies and social-emotional learning. Tamara travels to San Francisco to sit in on some classes and find out what is really being taught. She hears from a mother in Arizona concerned about a book assigned to her 9-year-old daughter. And she speaks to researchers working to quantify whether the teaching of topics associated with CRT helps or harms students.

This week Sam and Santi look back on both Copa Libertadores semi-finals, one of which was rather more dramatic and closely fought than the other, and preview Sunday's superclásico at the Bombonera. We also discuss a tightening title race, as Atlético Tucumán have picked up just one point from two games since we last recorded, allowing Gimnasia to go dead level with them at the top of the table.
