PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — The 2014 Major League Soccer All-Star game will be against legendary German club Bayern Munich, the reigning European and Bundesliga champions.

The All-Star game will be played in August at Jeld-Wen Field, home of the Portland Timbers. The MLS All-Star game has pitted league stars against top-flight foreign clubs for the past 10 years.

The match will conclude a weeklong tour of North America, Bayern’s first trip to the region in a decade. Also the reigning German Cup champion, Munich is currently ranked atop the Bundesliga and hasn’t dropped a league match.

Last season’s MLS All-Star game was played in Kansas City against AS Roma, which won 3-1.
