LA Galaxy News Release
LOS ANGELES - LA Galaxy defender Rolf Feltscher has been named to the Venezuelan National Team for a pair of international friendlies against Basque Country (Spain) and the United Arab Emirates.
Feltscher earns a second straight call-up to the national team after recently joining his countrymen in September. Then, Feltscher went 60 minutes in a friendly against Colombia on Sept. 7 at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.
After making his debut in 2011, Feltscher has made 20 appearances internationally, including CONMEBOL FIFA World Cup Qualifying action, and Venezuela's 2016 Copa American Centenario campaign.
Feltscher has made 13 starts and 13 appearances for the Galaxy since joining the club this offseason. He recently scored his first goal for the club, on Sept. 15 against Toronto FC. Feltscher is suspended for LA Galaxy's fixture against Sporting KC this weekend due to yellow card accumulation.
