West Ham to play MLS All-Stars

 
West Ham United of England's Premier League will play the best of Major League Soccer in the annual midseason MLS All-Star Game in Toronto on July 24. It is the fourth straight year the MLS all-stars have played a foreign club team in their ritual friendly, and the third straight year the team has come from Britain. Last year, MLS beat Celtic 2-0 on goals by New York's Juan Pablo Angel and FC Dallas' Juan Toja. The MLS select side beat Chelsea 1-0 in 2006 and Fulham 4-1 in 2005. [link]
