The MLS All-Stars played Everton FC in Sandy, UT in an entertaining match that went to penalties.  Plenty of people question the format of this event – MLS vs the foreign team – but to my eyes it gives the MLS players a little extra edge which adds to the game.

Nothing too ”friendly” here.

Where there are Fire fans, there is usually smoke.

Tim Howard shut down Freddie Ljungberg’s chip down the middle, and it was over.

Howard is match MVP.  Deserving.
