In Spain, the ninth round of La Liga approaches its close, and attention centers on Real Betis hosting Atletico Madrid.

And that’s your quick guide to Monday’s football action. If you’re chasing a reliable stream from abroad, remember: a VPN may unlock options—but check your local rights and terms first. Now, after you press play, you can blame your calendar for not taking a coffee break—soccer earned the privilege of your attention today.

Punchline time: My calendar asked if football could be a priority. I told it, “Sure, but only if the fixture list comes with a built-in coffee break.” Another line: If watching from abroad is a crime, I plead guilty of loving football more than my GPS loves directions.
