Just Another Manic Monday in the NWSL

Full Time with Meg Linehan: A show about women's soccer

Meg and Steph are back for 2023, with so much happening on the first real Monday of the year that we needed an emergency pod. First up, new Portland Thorns FC head coach Mike Norris, then a discussion of the corrective actions and sanctions announced by the NWSL on Monday following the joint investigation, and finally, the major free agency news of the day: Debinha’s staying in the NWSL, and heading to Kansas City!
