Show Notes
This week's Full Time is the first in a two-part 2025 NWSL Season Preview.
Meg Linehan is joined by former NWSL player-turned-broadcaster Jill Loydon and staff writer at USA Today's Pro Soccer Wire Jason Anderson to analyze the seven teams in what the podcast is calling the 'NWSL East'.
How are Orlando Pride, Washington Spirit, NJ/NY Gotham FC, KC Current, NC Courage, Chicago Stars, and Racing Louisville all shaping up before the start of the regular season? Everything you need to know is in this roundtable.
Meg and Jason also preview the 2025 NWSL Challenge Cup, which will see the Pride take on the Spirit in a rematch of the 2024 NWSL Championship. They will be trying to answer some questions about what that trophy means for both the teams involved and the league as a whole.
PLUS: Meg has the weekly headlines from around the world. From a Goal of the Year contender in LigaMX Femenil to the official delay of the FIFA Women's Club World Cup.
