Barcelona apologizes for match signal issues: Cyber attack, free live broadcast via YouTube

Barcelona's official website issued a message to apologize for the poor broadcast of the new account in the preseason.

Previous news said that the pre-season warm-up match of Barcelona vs. Kobe Victory Ship encountered broadcasting technical problems, resulting in the Barcelona official channel being bombarded by users.

Barcelona's official website then issued an apology, saying that in the past few hours, the club's streaming media platform has encountered a large-scale cyber attack, and the source of the attack comes from an illegal website trying to steal preseason live broadcast signals against Kobe Victory Ship. Faced with a large number of abnormal requests, the system has automatically activated the defense mechanism, which has affected the live broadcast services of the official website and the Culers application. The club immediately decided to open free live broadcasts through the YouTube platform to ensure the normal broadcast of the event. The club apologizes for the inconvenience caused and will actively contact all affected users.
