Real Madrid secured a victory over Inter Milan, but the performance suggested significant work remains for manager Jose Mourinho if the club is to compete for the UEFA Champions League title, according to a report by ESPN.
ESPN reported that Real Madrid appeared fortunate to come away with the win, with the match exposing deficiencies in the team's play despite the positive result on the scoreboard.
The report characterized the victory as one that raised more questions than it answered about the squad's readiness for deep runs in continental competition under Mourinho's guidance.
ESPN did not provide further details on the scoreline or specific tactical issues in the excerpt reviewed, but framed the result within the broader context of Mourinho's project at Real Madrid and the club's ambitions in the Champions League.
