MLS All-Stars vs. Real Madrid: How to Watch, TV Info, Live Stream, Lineups, and Match Thread
Whether you enjoy the MLS All-Star Game or think it’s a complete waste of time, the match pitting Major League Soccer’s stars against Real Madrid is on the schedule and will take place tonight at Soldier Field in Chicago. Orlando City is represented by Kaká and Dom Dwyer, the latter being originally selected while still a member of Sporting Kansas City.
Neither Orlando City player was selected by Chicago Fire and All-Star Head Coach Veljko Paunović. Dwyer, who also took part in the 2014 MLS All-Star Game, was a selection of MLS Commissioner Don Garber this year, along with FC Dallas midfielder Kellyn Acosta. Kaká’s inclusion is courtesy of being selected in the MLS All-Star Fan XI. This is the third appearance for Orlando City’s captain, who was named the game’s MVP back in 2015, when he tallied a goal and an assist in a 2-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur.
The MLS All-Stars will face Spanish giants Real Madrid — an always entertaining side with a wealth of talent. Can the Major League Soccer stars dump another European visitor?
