MLS All Stars named to face West Ham United

Major League Soccer announced the First XI for this year's MLS All Star competition, which will feature the best of MLS against English Premier League side West Ham United at a soldout BMO Field in Toronto on July 24.  Making up the First XI, who were voted on by fans, players, coaches/general managers and the media are six players with all-star game experience and five first-year players, including Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder David Beckham, who was the leading vote-getter among the fans, players and media. He was second only to teammate Landon Donovan in the overall vote.

The New England Revolution, which has a league-best 10-4-3 record, has the most First XI picks, with goalkeeper Matt Reis, defender Michael Parkhurst and midfielder Shalrie Joseph selected

The First XI is not necessarily the starting XI. That decision will be made by New England Revolution coach Steve Nicol, who will coach the MLS All-Stars for a second consecutive year. Nicol will choose from a pool that consists of the First XI, five players of his choosing and two selected by MLS Commissioner Don Garber. That announcement will be made July 15.
