Friday Freedom Kicks: MLS year-end awards, NWSL playoffs to begin Saturday, and more

Well, friends, as D.C. United won’t be heading to the MLS Cup playoffs this season; who are you following? Since I love chaos, I’ll probably be pulling for Cincinnati (and Lucho Acosta, heaven knows he deserves to win something).

MLS released a list of finalists for its year-end awards, and much like the playoffs, the Black-and-Red haven’t made the list. On the list are plenty of notable players (and coaches and referees), many of whom have given D.C. United a run for its money this 2022 season.

The NWSL playoffs start on Saturday, October 16, at 5 pm ET.
