How did the MLS win?
How did the MLS Allstars pull off the win against Chelsea? Do you think it was all because Chelsea was "training" and not yet in sync with their new players? |

Most of the chelsea players probably didnt take it seriously and tought they would just take it easy since they are tired from the world cup and all. |

MLS all stars are 3-0 against international opponents. Suprisingly, but i think its a lack of focus or will from the opposing team not nessecarily a well play game from the MLS allstars. |

well, look at the DC United Celtic game, we all know celtic is better, same with the all star games, the european team isnt fullly fit, or fully motivated |

Well I think since the All-Stars came into the game thinking they were the underdog, they really picked their game up in order to prove themselves compatible with international opponents. At Regionals in June with my team, we were put in the top group & were made to believe that we were gonna get destroyed every game... but we ended up winning the division, 10 goals for, 1 against (from a PK!). Basically, I think that underdog motivation did it for the All-Stars. |

IMO its a lack of focus from Chelsea(international teams etc) and a well fought game from the All Stars, a combination of the two. |
