54:25ope Francis, who died today aged 88, once told the players of Celtic FC that the essence of sport lay in 'gratuitousness', to give of yourself without expecting something in return. The idealism of his message doesn't resound widely in top-level football, where the contrasting experiences of two current stars expose the calculating self-interest th…

And he did it in the most 'Rory McIlroy at The Masters' way imaginable. We're joined in studio by Malachy…
