Let it be known, Sporting KC fans aren't playing around when it comes to voting for the 2013 AT&T MLS All-Star Game.
As it stands after a week of voting, Kansas City's Graham Zusi and Matt Besler lead their respective positional groups, while goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen is second. Don't bet against Nielsen pushing New York's Luis Robles to the side, either.
Do, however, cast your ballot to help decide the pool of players from which All-Star manager will choose his 18-man gameday roster. You can vote online, via text message and on Twitter.
The 10 players with the highest combined votes from the three traditional voting methods will be named to the All-Star Fan XI.
The 11th player – a forward – will be decided after the general voting window closes on July 2, as part of what is called the AT&T MLS All-Star "In the Game" Challenge. Among remaining forwards on the ballot, the player with whom fans score the most goals in EA SPORTS FIFA Soccer 13 Ultimate Team from July 3-July 10 will be named to the Fan XI.
