Concacaf Champions League, MLS, and more: Freedom Kicks for 8 April 2021

Hello! Here is a late afternoon Freedom Kicks for your enjoyment. To the links!

D.C. United’s new coach got a taste of CONCACAF by watching the CCL match between the Philadelphia Union and Saprissa. I’m very happy that Hernan Losada was watching the game, because it means he is looking into the very meat of what he needs to do in this league to actually win games.

A couple of great fundraisers during the NWSL Challenge Cup that are supporting local organizations. Casa Ruby helps trans women of color as well as LGBT youth facing homelessness, and the Open Goal Project helps open up youth soccer to all regardless of financial resources. Give both of these projects your support if you are able!
