OK, this game you have not missed.........yet!

The MLS All Stars will take on a team from across the Atlantic in the league's All-Star Game for the eighth consecutive season. This year's opponent will be Chelsea, which is coming off a campaign where the team won the UEFA Champions League and the FA Cup.

The MLS side actually won the first four games in the series, defeating Fulham, Celtic, West Ham United and the Blues. It's important to note the European teams are usually early in their preseason preparations and play trial lineups whereas the MLS players are in midseason form But Everton and Manchester United have combined to win the last three games.

Where: PPL Park in Chester, Pa.
When: Wednesday, July 25 at 8 p.m. ET
Watch: ESPN2
Live Stream: ESPN3.com

You can see Chelsea play the Seattle Sounders in Seattle on July 19 as they begin their preseason schedule.

The Sounders play Chelsea first tonight...6:30 pm ESPN 2 for Direct TV. I´ll be curious to hear if Kasey Keller broadcasts this one...before we see the Heath and the All Stars take on Chelsea.
