Friday Freedom Kicks: D.C. United head to Salt Lake, D.C. youth start their season, and more

Happy Friday, Black and Red United fam! I don’t know about you all, but this “short” week has felt like an eternity.

D.C. United are back in action tomorrow night against Real Salt Lake, but some key players will be missing. Taxi Fountas will still be on concussion protocol, and captain Steven Birnbaum is suspended due to yellow card accumulation. We see Matai Akinmboni traveled with the team and are hoping to see him get some minutes.

Get your coffee ready, it’s going to be a later night than usual tomorrow - kickoff is at 9:30 pm ET (likely 9:38 pm ET).
