Houston to host 2010 MLS All-Star Game
PARK CITY, Utah — Major League Soccer has picked Houston to host the 2010 All-Star Game.
MLS commissioner Don Garber made the announcement Monday after a news conference previewing this year’s game, which will take place Wednesday outside Salt Lake City. The MLS team will play Everton FC of the Premier League.
Garber says the league will stick with the current format of the select MLS players taking on an international club. Next year, it might be a team from Mexico.
Houston Dynamo president Oliver Luck says the game could be played in either Robertson Stadium, where the Dynamo play their home games, or Reliant Stadium, home of the NFL’s Houston Texans.
