The MLS 2024 All-Star Game is nearly upon us, and Major League Soccer has announced the roster for the annual event. Once again, it will be a dream team from MLS facing off against Liga MX’s best. 

In 2022, the MLS All-Stars defeated their Liga MX counterparts 2-1 in Minnesota. However, in 2023, Premier League giants Arsenal dominated MLS with a 5-0 scoreline at Audi Field in Washington, D.C. 

Now, the game returns to Columbus where Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Riqui Puig, and Cucho Hernández will all feature on the same roster to challenge Liga MX.
