Episode #057: Venezuela were invited to the prestigious Toulon Tournament, now known as the Tournoi Maurice Revello, for the second consecutive year this summer. Drawn in a group with last year's champions France, Costa Rica, and Saudi Arabia, Venezuela were expecting to need to take all 3 points from the latter two if they were to qualify from Group A. However, it all ended up far tighter than expected. Jordan goes through:

  • The few and far between positives
  • The trio of factors leading to Venezuela's exit
  • And where it went wrong for La Vinotinto

Jordan singles out Pipo Vivas and Jon Aramburu for defensive praise, wonders why Tuti Andrade didn't see more game time, and scrutinises the team selections of Ricardo Valino.
