The opening theme music of La Liga Analysis Tonight faded as the studio lights brightened.
Three pundits sat around a sleek glass table, their names and titles appearing on the screen: Carlos Ruiz (Former Spanish International), Elena Torres (Football Journalist), and Luis Mateo (Analyst and Statistician).
On the screen behind them, a highlight reel played of Izan's recent exploits against RCD Mallorca. The footage of his goal—a dazzling solo effort finished with a strike into the top corner—replayed in slow motion.
