On Wednesday night at San Jose’s Avaya Stadium, a team of Homegrown stars of Major League Soccer will take on the Mexico U-20 National Team in the 2016 Chipotle MLS Homegrown Game. With five players in the match, Real Salt Lake will be well-represented as the spotlight shines on the exhibition to showcase some of the bright young talent the league has to offer.
Four of those players – Jordan Allen, Justen Glad, Phanuel Kavita and Danilo Acosta – were selected by MLS and U.S. National Team legend Landon Donovan to suit up for the MLS side and Donovan himself spoke about each player in announcing the squad two weeks ago.
