Soccer legend Landon Donovan joins Cheddar live. His LA Galaxy and San Jose Earthquakes will face off in this weekend's California Clasico. Donovan tells us about the importance of rivalries in the sport and what needs to happen for the MLS to develop more of them.
Plus, looking ahead to the 2018 World Cup and beyond: Donovan is part of the first all-American broadcast team to cover the event. We talk about what that means for the future of the sport's popularity in the United States as the MLS grows exponentially. LAFC is set to hit the field in 2018, giving Los Angeles its second professional soccer team. Is there room enough for the both of them?
