It's finally time! Tonight marks the main event of the week's festivities -- the 2015 AT&T MLS All-Star game. The squad of MLS All-Stars (full roster here) faces off against English Premier League top-10 team Tottenham Hotspur (roster here) at 7 pm MT/9 pm MT (FOX Sports 1, UniMás, TSN, RDS).
While we've been up to our ears in the madness over here at MLSsoccer.com, we know you might have a life with actual things going on in it -- so let's bring you up to speed on what's been happening here in Denver! Here's everything you need to bring yourself up to speed before tonight's All-Star game.
We partied before things got super serious! On Sunday night, we jammed to a free downtown Denver concert by Aloe Blacc and Capital Cities. (Capital Cities didn't know what a "Hotspur" was -- sorry, Tottenham!) Monday, alt-Latino dance act Bomba Estéreo graced us with their electro-cumbia jams.
MLS All-Star Clint Dempsey played for Tottenham in 2012-2013, but he doesn't think his time there will help him out in tonight's game. He also weighed in on important matters, like his next rap release and his side in the Drake vs. Meek Mill beef.
On the Tottenham side, coach Mauricio Pochettino says that, unlike a testy Pep Guardiola last year, he will definitely shake all MLS hands after the game. Tottenham is still expecting a tough game, though, given Denver altitude and the fact that they're still just in pre-season form. (With MLS' international profile growing, too, some Spurs said they might consider the league in the future.)
Getting pumped? Here's the entire official match preview for the 2015 AT&T MLS All-Star game.
