The World Football Phone-in is a British weekly radio phone-in show about association football around the world. Hosted by Dotun Adebayo, it is part of the nightly Up All Night programming on BBC Radio 5 Live which he presents. The football show is broadcast in the 2 am to 4 am slot now on Tuesday mornings, and is also released as a podcast. Regular contributors are awarded a 'Brazilian shirt name' as a nickname.

Occasionally the entire programme (1 – 5 am) is dedicated to the phone-in.
