Coronavirus causes postponements and closed doors, Montreal Impact lose in Champions League, and more: Freedom Kicks for March 11, 2020

It’s Wednesday, and we had a lot of news involving soccer and the coronavirus. We also had Atalanta and RB Leipzig advancing in UEFA Champions League. Here’s what we have:

La Liga has put all matches behind closed doors for the next two weeks. That included Valencia’s Champions League match yesterday against Atalanta and includes Barcelona’s upcoming Champions League match against Napoli.

Because Serie A is on hiatus for another 3 weeks, the league is discussing how to crown a champion. Among the options is a playoff involving the top teams in the current table.
