Major League Soccer is known around the world for being an incredibly athletic league, with plenty of MLS players possessing world-class speed.


That high level of athleticism will be reflected in EA Sports’ FIFA 16, with three MLS players placing in the top-20 in the wildly popular video game’s speed rankings.



San Jose Earthquakes Designated Player Innocent, Vancouver Whitecaps burner Kekuta Manneh and Montreal Impact speedster Dominic Oduro each garnered a speed rating of 94 out of a possible 100 in FIFA 16, ranking 11th, ninth and eighth in the game, respectively.


Also on the list? Real Madrid star Gareth Bale (sixth place; 94 rating), Mexican national team and Tigres midfielder Jurgen Damm (fifth; 95) and Ghanaian Ernest Asante (fourth; 95), who plays for former USMNT manager Bob Bradley at Norwegian side Stabaek.


Topping the FIFA 16 speed rankings is Arsenal and England attacker Theo Walcott, who is one of two players – along with second-place finisher Mathis Bolly – to clock in with a 96 pace rating.
