      Susannah Butter London Evening Standard It's a slow build but just like you'd do with a team that is floundering, bear with it - by episode two it feels a lot more confident and funny. May 28, 2020 Full Review Rebecca Nicholson Guardian It has moments of inspiration... Still, I finished the first two episodes of The First Team suspecting that I wasn't the target audience, that I had missed something crucial. Rated: 2/5 May 28, 2020 Full Review Nick Reilly NME (New Musical Express) All things considered, this small screen take on the beautiful game is a world away from the fast-flowing banter of The Inbetweeners.
