David Beckham Curls (Shaves ) And Scores

DAVID Beckham: “SYDNEY, Australia (AP) - David Beckham gave a crowd of 80,295 just what it came to see: some drama and a goal from a trademark, curling free kick.”

Having limped around for almost 20 minutes after injuring his left ankle, the former England captain scored the Los Angeles Galaxy’s only first-half goal in an exhibition against Sydney FC on Tuesday.

The Galaxy scored two more goals in the second half, but lost 5-3 to Sydney.

Beckham, trailed by paparazzi and constantly under the media gaze at a series of celebrity and sponsor events since arriving Sunday, fulfilled his playing obligations in Sydney.

“It was an entertaining match for the 80,000 fans. That’s what they wanted, to see some goals and to see a bit of an exhibition—they got that,” he said.

Forget winning - just score more GOALSSSS!!! It’s American soccer…
