CHELSEA FC vs MLS ALL STARS
by Taaruk Raina




26th July, 2012

Chelsea Fc, one of the biggest soccer clubs on the planet continued their North America tour, as they played the MLS All Stars. Chelsea being owned by Russian oil tycoon Roman Ibrahimovic have some of the most expensive and decorated players in the side.
As for the MLS, they have players that couldn't continue their careers in the top leagues around the world, and decided to move to a league that they could survive in.
After the above said, you'd think that a win for Chelsea in this clash would be a breeze, and you would be wrong.
Chelsea lost to the All Stars as the score was 3-2. Frank Lampard and captain John Terry did manage to forge a comeback, but it wasn't enough.
Chris Wondolowski, Chris Pontius and Eddie Johnson scored for an All Stars side which also featured Thierry Henry, former Watford defender Jay DeMerit and ex-Everton loanee Landon Donovan.


These are some of the highlights :-
