Welcome to the point in the yearly soccer calendar when there is literally too much going on to pay attention. The domestic regular seasons are winding to a close and the playoffs soon to begin. Across the pond, the European leagues are now old enough to have developed narratives and full-fledged drama. Just in case you valued your freer midweeks for getting things like work and spending time with your family checked off your to do lists, the Champions League and other cup competitions have also resumed in full. And international soccer, somehow, is just around the corner again too. So if you haven’t had time to catch up on it all, here’s the Pondcast just in time to give you the Cliff’s Notes — not to mention all of our other weekly segments.
