Spanish - I also watched the Real Madrid match on TRT Spor, buddy, looks like you ran into signal issues too 😩 My screen froze a few times while I was watching. I thought about checking YouTube, but I'm used to TRT Spor anyway. I think Mourinho had some surprises in his first lineup, especially with that midfield setup. Everyone was shocked when Benzema was played in midfield, I was like "wow, what kind of tactic is this?" Espanyol's resistance to dead balls was solid too, I was out of breath just watching their runs 😅 With this performance, I think Real Madrid will go unbeaten in the EuroLeague too. If they bring the same energy from the league to Europe, no one can stop them.

The key tactical detail of that Espanyol-Madrid game was that Mourinho set up an ultra-offensive 4-2-3-1, with Valverde and Camavinga as a double pivot, but Vinicius’ role stood out—he constantly drifted to the left wing, allowing Rodrygo to stay on the right so Metinho could play as a pure right interior. This created suffocating pressure on Espanyol’s full-backs, especially in the second half, and allowed Courtois to safely clear the ball at 90+3 for the draw. It’s surprising they didn’t give more minutes to players like Durán or Paz, who always bring freshness. As for the broadcast channel issue, TRT Spor did indeed air it free-to-air in Turkey, but in many European countries—including Spain—DAZN carried the match. YouTube didn’t have rights for this game due to UEFA restrictions, so if you didn’t have DAZN or TRT, you were out of legal options. TRT’s signal quality is hit-or-miss—they often prioritize stadium feeds with outdated codecs, but HD works better. If you were streaming on mobile, bandwidth issues might have come into play. As for whether Madrid can keep dominating Europe with this setup, it remains to be seen. The team struggles under heavy physical pressure (like against Bayern in the Champions League), and their full-backs can get exhausted, but in La Liga this system gives them solidity. Mourinho designed this shape specifically to deny space and exploit his wingers’ speed—if they maintain this for more matches, they could indeed aim for supremacy. That said, against high-pressing teams like Liverpool or City, we’ll see if they can keep up the pace.

You're the one who throws the towel in the water, and you're the one who picks it up too 😄 I was desperate for a live broadcast of the Espanyol match last night, stuck to TRT Spor, but that signal trouble is something else, I swear. I even nearly froze in the freezer five minutes before the end of the match, but I still tried to watch it. If you caught the international broadcast on YouTube, at least you're getting a smooth HD experience—my advice is to go with that. As for Mourinho’s first lineup, I think it was quite a surprise—seeing Rodrygo on the right wing stunned everyone. When I look at Madrid, it’s like that classic "we’re dominant but it’s not reflecting on the pitch" vibe continues. The Spanish team was legendary, truth be told—they held on until the very last scoring moments. Oh, and the EuroLeague boss situation... If they keep this form up, they won’t let anyone take it, but you still gotta stay sharp!
