All it takes is one 言及／関連 to Argentina and, in a flash, Laura 支持を得ようと努めるd starts talking 無傷の for five minutes. She is animated, so much so her answer begins with?Lionel Messi, filters into the background of an on-審査する 列／漕ぐ／騒動 and ends with Roy Keane 存在 に例えるd to David Attenborough.

For 状況, we are revisiting the first game of Group C ? that みごたえのある afternoon when Saudi Arabia 記録，記録的な／記録するd one of the most incredible, 予期しない results in World Cup history by coming from behind at Lusail Stadium to （警官の）巡回区域，受持ち区域 Messi and Co 2-1.?

A day earlier, 支持を得ようと努めるd had made her own World Cup debut, hosting?ITV’s ニュース報道 of the Netherlands’ comfortable 敗北・負かす of Senegal with Ian Wright and Gary Neville. If that was a thrill, the realisation of a childhood dream, it was nothing compared to what was in 蓄える／店.

The story was big enough but a spin-off from it was the television moment of the tournament when Roy Keane and Mail Sport columnist Graeme Souness went at each other, over Argentina’s contentious 刑罰，罰則, with the f erocity of two bison 割れ目ing skulls. It was 説得力のある 見解（をとる）ing.

‘We were told Argentina sold out their first two group games faster than any other nation,’ 支持を得ようと努めるd says, nursing a coffee at her West Bay hotel. ‘So we knew it was going to be big but I didn’t 推定する／予想する it to be that big. I didn’t 推定する／予想する the noise to be like that.

‘I’ve never been at a football game when I’ve experienced anything like that before in my life. And the narrative, of course, is that it’s going to be Messi’s fifth and final World Cup, he could 勝利，勝つ it and all that romance.?

'Then, all of a sudden, the script gets 完全に ripped up. And you’re covering the script 存在 ripped up with Roy sat to your 権利, Graeme and Joe Cole to your left. You’re looking around at these fans who are just on their feet, banging 派手に宣伝するs, singing, dancing the entire time and you’re like: “Wow! How did I get here?” It’s incredible.’

She is zigzagging now, between amazement and excitement. Keane was incredulous that a 位置／汚点／見つけ出す-kick had been awarded. Souness was 毅然とした VAR had made the 権利 決定／判定勝ち（する）. 発言する／表明するs raised, fingers jabbed. And, like all the best presenters, 支持を得ようと努めるd stepped 支援する and left them to it.

ITV's? 支持を得ようと努めるd spoke 排他的に to Mail Sport about 実行するing her childhood dream by 現在のing at the World Cup in Qatar

She 反映するd on the thrill of watching Lionel Messi, before seeing his 味方する lose to Saudi Arabia

‘Then half-time comes along and there’s the 不一致 between Roy and Graeme,’ 支持を得ようと努めるd continues. ‘For a very long period, I sat there like a fan. I just watched and I couldn’t believe it, experiencing what everybody else at home is experiencing when they watch it.

‘You think: “What is happening? How amazing is this?” I looked at Joe at one point and we were in 不信. So I said: “And what about you, Joe?” Joe’s always got an opinion but his 発言する／表明する is as 静かな as I’ve ever heard him and he says sheepishly: “I thought it was a 刑罰，罰則...” It was just brilliant!

‘But there’s other moments 同様に, that people at home don’t see. This is where 特権 comes in. I’d told Roy I’d never seen him play in real life. Roy said: “Just watch Messi for a minute… It looks like he’s not 利益／興味d and he’s just walking around when everybod y else is running. But he knows where everyone is. He knows where the ball is and he reads the game like no one else reads it”.’

‘As we were watching, the ball’s played through and Messi makes a run and 得点する／非難する／２０s. It was offside, the one where his shoulder was just わずかに offside, but the 肉親，親類d of poetry of it, where Roy Keane is almost… it was almost like he was narrating like David Attenborough.’

As is 支持を得ようと努めるd. She knows every time she steps in 前線 of the camera she is 支配する to all manner of scrutiny, with any mis-step likely to be 掴むd upon by social マスコミ. But years of experience and a かかわり合い to 激しい 準備 led to this chance of a lifetime.

It is not, she 堅固に 認めるs, a World Cup that will ever be forgotten for all manner of 推論する／理由s but, through it all, she is 決定するd to 持続する the enthusiasm that 送信する／伝染させるs when she looks 負かす／撃墜する the レンズ. How, 支持を得ようと努めるd 申し込む／申し出s, could you not be enthusiastic with an 適切な時期 such as this?

‘We want to come and do as good a 職業 as we かもしれない can,’ she says. ‘We have excellent reporters on the ground and we showed a feature the other day that was eight minutes long. I’ve never seen a feature that length in any ニュース報道 I’ve ever done and it was 特に about LGBTQ+ 権利s.

‘I thought it was brilliant. It’s important you show it because in a way the opposite of sports-washing has happened in this World Cup, in that the 注目する，もくろむs of the world are on the 残虐（行為）s ? and the 注目する，もくろむs of the world are now on those human 権利s 問題／発行するs. If the football wasn’t here it wouldn’t be shown.’

The point is fair and she pauses to 反映する. Soon, however, she is smiling again. On Sunday she was pitchside as England banished the ITV hoodoo with a ノックアウト 勝利，勝つ over Senegal and she will 現在の Spain’s date with Morocco on Tuesday.

‘Look, how can I not smile? 支持を得ようと努めるd asks. ‘I’m in my element in this World Cup and I say that 特に to do with the football. I am going to games, I’m covering these magical moments in the company of some of the most 脚 endary players of the game. What are the chances of 存在 able to experience something like that?’
