Tottenham Hotspur, the English Premier League club will take on the MLS All-Stars at Dick’s Sporting Good Park, the home of the Colorado Rapids, in the 2015 AT&T MLS All-Star Game on July 29. Kick off is at 9 pm ET. The game will be televised live on FOX Sports 1, UniMás and Univision Deportes Network (UDN) in the United States, TSN and RDS in Canada, and in more than 100 countries worldwide.
Don't forget to tune in! Highlights will be Clint Dempsey's goal-scoring threat against his old team, Spurs. Also young DeAndre Yedlin, who played for the MSL All-Stars last year when they beat Bayern Munich, is now in a Spurs uniform. This is Spurs only pre-season match in the USA this year so don't forget to tune in tonight - Fox Sports 1 HD where I am.

Could happen too... MSL All Stars are not all USians by any means. They have some major Euro talent including a certain Italian who seems to have chosen to play here - rather than just superannuated fading stars like Droga (who can still cause a lot of trouble for the opposition) and Lampard (who is not past his sell-by date either).

Well LJ, if you made it through the preposterous balloon that delayed the kickoff for over 20 minutes, you've seen a good game. Spurs have the possession and probably Kane should have put 2 in - but it's 2-1 MLS All-Stars at the half and that's football for yer. Harry Kane's goal is the best of the bunch so far and if they keep up the pressure they should equalize and even win

But you never know - MLS really does have some All-Stars and for never playing (or even practicing) together, they've done themselves proud so far.
