All right, you've seen the list. Now it's time to watch the young talent take action. Here's how to watch the 24 Under 24 players the rest of this weekend:
D.C. United vs. Orlando City SC
Saturday, 9/24 | 7pm ET | MLS LIVE
The man atop the mountain is likely to feature prominently in this crucial matchup, as No. 1 Cyle Larin looks to put the Lions ahead of D.C. in their battle for one of the East's final playoff spots. He's joined by No. 21 Cristian Higuita, who's served as a destroyer of all things in the Orlando midfield. Across the midfield line, No. 14 Luciano Acosta has begun to find a rhythm running the D.C. United attack, providing pretty – and fun! – moments on the ball.
Real Salt Lake vs. FC Dallas
Saturday, 9/24 | 9:30pm ET | MLS LIVE
The volume play is to tune in here, mainly because the FC Dallas academy continues to astound; their squad boasts four of the Top 11: Kellyn Acosta (No. 4), Carlos Gruezo (No. 8), Jesse Gonzalez (No. 9) and Walker Zimmerman (No. 9). Good grief.
Not to be outdone is RSL, who've produced a steady defender in No. 15 Justen Glad – who's just 19! – and have a versatile midfield talent in No. 16 Jordan Allen. Glad's more likely than Allen to see major minutes against the Supporters' Shield leaders, but Allen's capable of making a big impact in a small window.
LA Galaxy vs. Seattle Sounders
Sunday, 9/25; 4pm ET; ESPN | MLS LIVE in Canada
The fresh firepower is all on one side, and the Sounders have to feel good about No. 3 Jordan Morris rising to meet out-sized expectations with an impressive rookie campaign. Not to mention continued development from No. 24 Cristian Roldan, who's started to see the angles now that Nicolas Lodeiro is pulling the strings for the Rave Green.
