Description

I want to download a video from ESPN+. I have an account and I use VPN. I use the service ExpressVPN. I can play the video in the browser, but cannot download the video via youtube-dl. The URL to the video is: http://www.espn.com/watch/player?id=0b3122c9-8041-4540-89b5-b0dd7ee37a1e

Maybe this is just an issue where youtube-dl does not properly make use of my VPN connection. However for other video sites I successfully used the VPN to download videos.
