Whitecaps midfielder Andres Cubas named to MLS all-star team
Vancouver Whitecaps defensive midfielder Andres Cubas has been named to Major League Soccer’s all-star team.
Cubas joins Whitecaps teammates Thomas Muller and Sebastian Berhalter in the midseason exhibition where the best of MLS will face an all-star team from Mexico’s LIGA MX on Wednesday.
It’s Cubas’s first time being selected to the MLS All-Star roster, having joined Vancouver in April 2022.
Cubas played a pivotal role in Paraguay’s run to the Round of 16 at the FIFA World Cup as he played every single minute and led the tournament in defensive contributions.
This season, Cubas has started 11 of his 12 appearances in MLS regular-season play, tallying three assists. He also leads the league in tackles with 58.
Vancouver continues its extended road trip on Saturday with a visit to Western Conference rivals Minnesota United FC.
