The Athletic serves up daily soccer Connections puzzle for EFL League One fans

The Athletic's EFL League One landing page is pairing its league coverage with an interactive daily brain-teaser, Connections: Soccer Edition, which asks readers to group soccer terms that share a common thread. According to the page, a new puzzle is made available each day.

Beyond the puzzle, the page surfaces a marketplace of trading card listings, including an ungraded 2024-25 Topps Merlin UCC Merlin's Chosen Ones card featuring rookie Charalampos Kostoulas, numbered to 15, priced at $230.

The extract provided from the page contained no match results, fixtures, scores, stats, or transfer rumors from the league itself — only promotional and puzzle content tied to the EFL League One hub.
