    Good Lord that was a sweet shot.

    It'll be on YouTube soon, I'm sure.

    One wonders if all his shots are that accurate. I wish I could bend it like beckham.

    SuperLiga! 10 pm este, por Telefutura!

    It was, of course, a (sweet-ass) free kick goal. It put Los Angeles ahead 1-0, which is the score at halftime now.

    Haha, It's funny how Beckham finally shows up on Telefutura. ESPN must be really frustrated right now.

    :D And it will ALWAYS be like that for you estadounidenses... even Homer said "soccer will never amount to anything in America" :D

    Seriously, though, until mainstream and major networks invest money on putting great games on, it will never catch on.

    and besides the fact that the MLS is pretty much below the minor leagues when it comes to overall talent, I doubt the Alpha-Americans would watch what is perceived to be 2nd/3rd rate soccer

    In a scale of 1-10, adding David Beckham to the MLS makes most of us Mexicans appreciate "american football" just a tad more... it goes from a 7 to an 8... and that's about it... we will watch, but that's about it...

    Night of firsts for him:
    First start
    First goal
    First YELLOW CARD :D

    As a sidenote, his free kick was scored thanks to a silly wrong guess by an inexperienced goalie not knowing the capability of the famous left foot. Still, he is a beauty to watch no matter who the goalie is.

    Um. Left?

    His free kick hit the side wall of the net; Troy Perkins is one of the best goalkeepers in the league.

    Thanks for the heads up, Zac D. It is beautiful indeed. Mrs Beckham is so used to such goals and looked bored. :)

    Nice shot, but I am really more interested in the pass to set up Donovan.
