Seattle Sounders FC fans dominate All-Star selection voting

One week into the balloting for the MLS All-Star team to face Everton FC in July and it's all about Sounders FC.

Goalkeeper Kasey Keller is the overwhelming leader in fan voting for the 2009 MLS All-Star Game.

The former United States national team goalkeeper has four clean sheets in eight appearances.

Seattle players Freddie Ljungberg, Fredy Montero, Osvaldo Alonso, Tyrone Marshall, Steve Zakuani and Jhon Kennedy Hurtado have accumulated the next highest total in the first week of fan voting.

Fans can vote for the All-Star First XI online by selecting one goalkeeper, three defenders, five midfielders and two forwards. Fans can vote up to 10 times per day.

The online fan balloting program, which concludes on July 6, will comprise 25 percent of the total vote for the All-Star First XI, with coaches and general managers, players, and media each holding 25 percent of the vote.
