ORLANDO, Fla. — Uruguayan soccer legend Diego Forlán certainly approves of the venue for the 2019 MLS All-Star Game.
Forlán was in Orlando during the weekend as Atlético Madrid’s ambassador ahead of the marquee match, which will pit Atlético against the best players in Major League Soccer at Orlando City Stadium.
He loves the pitch – he called the grass perfect. He loves how close the seats are to the action. It’s the kind of place he’d like to play – just being there on a tour with some of Orlando City’s players made him want to kick a ball around.
