El Clasico Pod: Real Madrid's winning tactical approach, Yan Diomande's big role

This podcast is mostly about El Clasico. Real Madrid got a late winner, but they had been the better team for most of the match in both surprising and unsurprising ways. We break down their effective defense, the unexpected role of Yan Diomande, the way they broke Barcelona's press, and some of our concerns about Barcelona in matches where they can't turn everything into transition. There's a little bonus Valencia talk at the front and some United discussion at the back.
