NEW YORK (AP) — The Sounders have placed 6 players out of 28 on the Major League Soccer All-Star Game roster, most in MLS. Six is the most in Seattle's history, breaking the previous mark of 5 in 2014.
Raul Ruidiaz, Yeimar, Nouhou, Alex Roldan, Cristian Roldan, and João Paulo made the All-Star team. The Roldan brothers are the first pair of brothers to make the squad in the same year in MLS history.
The MLS All-Stars will face a team of all-stars from LigaMX on Aug. 25 in Los Angeles.
The 28-man roster includes 13 players selected through voting by fans, players and the media; 13 players selected by All-Star Game head coach Bob Bradley; and two selected by MLS Commissioner Don Garber.
Fifteen MLS teams are represented on the All-Star roster.
