Re: ****Official Beckham Mania Thread****
No bump for him playing against DCU? First MLS game action, McClaren was on hand to "see the quality of play in MLS" or something like that. About 47k fans on hand for the game.
DC went up 1-0 and held on to win by that score. Kyle Martino got sent off with a red in the 67th minute and Beckham came in shortly thereafter playing the last 20-25 minutes. He didn't seem to favor his ankle at all, and was moving very well. Looked a little rusty on some plays, but made a few very good passes including one free kick that almost led to a goal and another to Donovan that took a diving challenge from the keeper to stop a breakaway.
Hopefully he recovers well from today and is able to play again Sunday. However, I wouldn't be surprised to see him sit it out since it's at NE which means it's on turf. I don't However, I would expect to see him play every game after that unless he reinjures it.
