Who ever said there was no talent in MLS?

As far as knocking boxes off of other boxes goes, Major League Soccer’s stars are doing just fine.

Sky Sports reporter Geoff Shreeves travelled to the States to test out the accuracy of the league’s biggest names with the likes of Robbie Keane, Andrea Pirlo, Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard and Clint Dempsey all getting involved.

The English midfielders won the cleverly named “hit the target” challenge as they both knocked the smaller box from its perch on their first attempts.

Italian legend Andrea Pirlo needed all three of his attempts to hit the target but that does nothing to affect his status as the coolest man in football.

Strikers Robbie Keane and Clint Dempsey failed to complete the challenge but that didn’t stop the Irishman for claiming that he hit the top box first.
