Summary

Jimbo’s got Julien Laurens, Rory Smith, Seb Stafford-Bloor and Pol Ballús in tow to put all the action from across the continent under the microscope. It’s advantage Inter in Serie A as the Nerazzurri moved three points clear at the top of the table thanks to their 2-0 win over title rivals Atalanta. Napoli lost ground after being held to their seventh draw of the season by lowly Venezia in a game they somehow failed to score in. In La Liga, Barcelona came from two goals down to stun Atléti 4-2 and regain top spot, after Kylian Mbappé’s brace in their 2-1 win at Villarreal. Plenty are still reeling in the red and white side of Madrid after THAT Champions League exit… Over in France, PSG celebrated their Champions League heroics by extending their lead at the top of the Ligue 1 table to a whopping 19 points after their 3-1 win vs Marseille. And in the Bundesliga, Laterkusen returned in their dramatic 4-3 win at Stuttgart, while Bayern were held by Union Berlin which means their advantage at the top is cut to six points. Produced by Lucy Oliva.
