On today's Briefing - Germany very nearly slipped up and lost their grip on the top spot. Guy Clarke was watching. Meanwhile Scotland fell short once again, exiting yet another tournament in the first round. VAR...urgh...what is it good for? Absolutely nothing, it seems.


Plus, the USA were in action in the Copa America.
