Landon Donovan, el estadounidense David Beckham y el francés Thierry Henry encabezan el plantel del combinado de la MLS que enfrentará al Manchester United en el Juego de Estrellas.

Entre los jugadores elegidos destaca también el delantero colombiano Juan Agudelo, de los Red Bulls de Nueva York, el arquero de ese mismo país, Faryd Mondragón, quien milita en el Union de Filadelfia, y el delantero mexicano Omar Bravo del Sporting de Kansas City.

Philadelphia Union captain Faryd Mondragon has stated his intent to retire with the Philadelphia Union when his playing day are over.

The Colombian goalkeeper answered a follower's question on Twitter about his soccer retirement plans, saying that he would like to retire with the Union. Mondragon, already a fan favorite, turned 40-years-old today and is in the first year of a what is thought to be a contract that lasts at least two years with Philadelphia.

So, just a little over a week after we won our first Cup in so many years (despite the rather depressing events which followed after the match), us AEK fans were treated to yet another pleasing weekend. This time, however, the attention was not only on our football team, but also our Handball guys, a group of players who have fought hard and gave everything they had to offer to the club for the past three years.
