After a year’s hiatus due to the pandemic, Major League Soccer is bringing back the MLS All-Star Game in Los Angeles this August.
The exhibition match will bring to reality a long-time goal of partnership between MLS and Liga MX, the top flight in Mexico. All-Star teams from both leagues will face off at Banc of California stadium on Aug. 25.
“As we have been working for so long to develop this really powerful, really valuable and really important partnership with Liga MX, we thought the best way to show the best of soccer in this part of the world was to get our best players together and play in the MLS All-Star Game,” MLS commissioner Don Garber said.
