Wednesday Freedom Kicks: Bittersweet symphony

We have Brazil's heartbreak in women's Olympic soccer, a former FIFA president passes away, the race for MLS MVP, and we got the men's Olympic semifinals. Wake up...it's your Freedom Kicks for Wednesday!

What up world. It's Wednesday, so I hope you got your pink on, because I want you to be able to sit with us. Last night we had CONCACAF Champions League action, with Sporting Kansas City and the New York Red Bulls both heading to Central America and escaping with draws. Today, it's the semifinals of men's soccer in the Olympics, with host Brazil facing off against upstart Honduras while Nigeria hopes to get past Germany to the gold medal match.
