The final international break of the 2021-22 European soccer season -- the most consequential one in years -- is officially in the rearview mirror, and it's once again time to focus on the homestretch of the club season. In terms of title races, relegations, future Champions League spots or the current Champions League knockout rounds, a whole lot will be decided in the coming weeks. There are lots of big matches coming our way.
Once this season is over, however, we'll have a bit of a void in the weeks and months that follow. You should be watching as much soccer as you can, if only because it's your last opportunity for a little while.
