So, Austin has an MLS team now. I can tell you’re excited! But I bet you have some questions.
I am! And I do. What’s MLS?
Oof, sounds like we’re starting from scratch here. But that’s okay! No better time than now to get going. MLS is short for Major League Soccer. It’s the top men’s professional soccer league in the United States. The cream of the crop. The top of the mountain.
So it’s got all the best players in the world?
Well, no . most of the best players in the world play in Europe. But MLS has some darn good ones! Carlos Vela, Josef Martínez, Diego Rossi.
