Arguably the greatest challenge of his short professional career awaits the Colorado Rapids' Homegrown rookie, Kortne Ford, this weekend, with him expected to lineup against Spanish superstar David Villa in the contest with New York City FC (TICKETS).
NYCFC's number seven has 19 goals this season, from 25 appearances. He boasts an incredible 60 goals all-time, from 88 games in MLS. Indeed, Villa has scored wherever his twinkle toes have taken him, be it at Valencia, Barcelona, or Atlético Madrid. He is also Spain's record goalscorer.
Ford, meanwhile, has shown in just 13 appearances as a pro that he is up to the challenge.
