Real Madrid boss Mourinho insists Spanish football not in crisis

Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho insists Spanish football is not in crisis.

Mourinho says fans should simply enjoy Spanish and English football, rather than compare it.

"English football is how it is. If we talk about Spanish football, at the club and national level it has dominated but now it is struggling after the first leg of the Champions League. If the four Spanish teams are eliminated, it does not mean that Spanish football is ruined. City and Chelsea were left back in the Group Stage because they had to play very difficult teams. Spanish football is Spanish football and English football is English."
