Less than a year ago, Colorado Rapids defender Drew Moor tore his ACL and meniscus. It took him eight months to work his way back and in April, he returned to the Rapids’ lineup.
Though the 31-year-old Moor has five caps for the U.S. national team and won the MLS Cup with Colorado in 2010, he had never been selected as an All-Star. In the video above, he expresses how much it would mean to him to add that honor to his credits, especially so soon after a major injury. He is then asked to read a piece of paper as the cameras roll, and as he does, he learns that he has been selected to be in the All-Star squad that will face Tottenham on July 29.
