You know what, there are some really interesting tidbits in this MLSnet preview. Whoever did it

The week's Ultimate 11's is Micky Marbles' Premier League all stars. Now this proved to be a lot
harder then he thought as we restricted his selection to 3 players max from each team, otherwise it
would have been an Arsenal & United 11! So do you think you could come up with a better team then
that?

With seven All-Stars on the pitch, one might have expected Saturday night's encounter between
Seattle Sounders FC and Real Salt Lake to be a scoring bonanza, much like RSL's last home match.
Yet much of the play was concentrated in the middle third of the pitch, with few scoring
opportunities for either team.

Given very poor planning on my part, I will again miss the Rapids game this weekend. Two games in a
row, very poor form. So, I won't be posting a match report as the chances of me both finding a tv

to none.

Tim Howard as Everton FC
outlasted the MLS All-Stars Wednesday to win 4-3 on penalty kicks after the match ended in a 1-1
draw. Howard deservedly received MVP honors for his performance, where he made stunning save after
save both during the match as well as during the penalty shootout.

A lot of folks this morning are calling for the end of the MLS All-Star game, or at least the

game going away at any point in the near future after what we saw last night.

Opting not to clear their bench, Everton took the 2009 MLS All-Star Game on penalties after drawing
1-1 in regulation Wednesday night at Rio Tinto Stadium. Though the All-Stars remain unbeaten in

Team keeper Tim Howard.

So good he has to console Freddie Ljungberg after stopping the Swede's feeble PK attempt.
It was the third save in the shootout for Tim Howard (aka The Boss), who also had six saves in
regulation in an MVP-winning performance.
Everton was the first and only international club to beat the MLS All-Stars, who came into the game
5-0 in these kind of games.

formats in 2002. Since then, the game is the top MLS players versus a club from another country.
The last few years have seen Chelsea, Celtic, West Ham, and Fulham all take on the MLS All-Stars.
