BURNABY, B.C. - Robbie Keane is poised to lead the Los Angeles Galaxy to another dominant season in Major League Soccer -- if a simulation by the "FIFA Soccer 12" video game is accurate.
The latest installment of the EA Sports soccer franchise predicts Toronto FC will finish seventh in the Eastern Conference -- the best record among the Canadian squads -- with a 10-14-10 record. The Montreal Impact will finish 10th in the East in its inaugural MLS season at 5-19-10, while the Vancouver Whitecaps will end up eighth in the West at 7-13-14.
The simulation also says the Galaxy will post a record-setting season and win the MLS Supporters' Shield for the best regular-season record -- 22-3-9 -- for a third consecutive year. Their three losses will set an MLS record as the fewest in a season.
Keane will score a league-high 19 goals to collect the 2012 Budweiser Golden Boot.
The simulation was conducted using team rosters as of March 1. "FIFA Soccer 12" was developed by EA Canada in Burnaby, B.C.
