Welcome to The Euro Debrief, a new Sky Sports column by Adam Bate rounding up key stories from across European football.

Barcelona capitalised on Real Madrid's slip-up at Real Betis to move clear at the top of La Liga with a five-goal thrashing of Valencia. Lamine Yamal was sensational with two goals, while Fermin Lopez scored and created chances. Kylian Mbappe's poor penalty in stoppage time cost Real Madrid all three points in Seville. Jose Mourinho's side were wasteful, squandering five big chances before being punished by Troy Parrott, who fired in on the rebound on his home debut. Parrott, once given his Premier League debut by Mourinho at Tottenham, was emotional at the final whistle. Mourinho accused Betis of cynicism and complained about his side's naivety.

Elsewhere, Elversberg secured their first-ever Bundesliga away win, coming from two down to defeat Borussia Monchengladbach 4-3. The opening-weekend victory over Bayer Leverkusen proved no fluke. Bayern Munich were held, while Inter Milan staged a comeback to down Napoli in Milan.
