Goal reached out to several MLS players for their Super Bowl picks, and the Atlanta Falcons seem to be the favorites among players in North America.
If there's any American soccer player who knows a thing or two about winning a championship, it's Landon Donovan.
The free agent has won six MLS Cups during his 15-year MLS career. He's been named the league's regular season MVP once and MLS Cup MVP twice. In fact, the MLS MVP trophy is named in his honor, even though he was an active player with the LA Galaxy in 2016.
It's safe to say Donovan understands what it's like to reach the highest level of his sport, so we may just be inclined to take his word on who will win Super Bowl LI when the New England Patriots take on the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday in Houston.
