New York Red Bulls ace Tim Cahill has been named to the 2013 MLS All-Star team.
The Australian international was added to the MLS squad for the clash with Italian club AS Roma as one of Commissioner Don Garber's two selections, which also included young Seattle Sounders defender DeAndre Yedlin.
Cahill, who joins Red Bulls teammate Thierry Henry in the squad, was thrilled to be included in the All-Stars game after playing in the match for Everton in 2009.
