Calf Injury Knocks Galaxy's Donovan Out Of MLS All-Star Game

Los Angeley Galaxy midfielder Landon Donovan will miss the 2011 AT&T Major League Soccer All-Star Game Wednesday against the English Premier League's Manchester United at Red Bull Arena in Harrison, NJ after the Galaxy announced Sunday he has suffered a calf injury.

He played all 90 minutes of the Galaxy's MLS game last week against the Columbus Crew and played 45 minutes of an exhibition game against Real Madrid July 16 with the injury, but did not dress for Sunday's 7-6 penalty kick shootout over the EPL's Manchester City at The Home Depot Center, nor did he work out with the team on Thursday or Saturday.

Donovan leads the Galaxy in goals with nine in 14 games.
