Beckham ends US odyssey with cup
After the final whistles sounded in the 1-0 championship victory over the Houston Dynamo, Beckham’s lucrativefive-year contract with the Galaxy came to a successful end and buried the demons of the 36-year-old midfielder’s previous MLS failures.
“It’s been an amazing five years and this just topped it off tonight,” Beckham told reporters. “This was a special year and I’m so happy to have been a part of this.”
Beckham was indeed a big part of the win despite battling a hamstring injury, able to spark the game’s only goal and show the kind of commitment to his team that many have questioned from the day he arrived in 2007.
The Briton has been criticised for opting to take loan moves to AC Milan in Italy during the off-season, as well as his failure to deliver on the promise of championships and to raise the profile of soccer in the United States. — Reuters.
