Argentine demi-gods Guillermo Barros Schelotto and Marcello Gallardo lead their teams in this appealing Thursday evening clash of two of the most perennially disappointing teams in MLS. Ok, only one of them fits that bill though DC's early season form has been baffling to say the least. Gallardo and Schelotto faced off many times on the field in Argentina's classico, with Gallardo representing River and Schelotto already elected to the pantheon of club greats in the hearts of Boca Juniors fans. While both shoulder playmaking responsibilities, they lead from different parts of the field and, of course are compensated accordingly (Gallardo represent's DC's salary cap exemption). Both teams are capable of scoring and conceding goals by the score so this should be an entertaining one for the viewers.
(edior's note: David Beckham is not involved in this match but any mention of MLS carries with it a contractual obligation to mention GoldenBalls, at least in passing)
