Hooray! After a frustrating start here in the statesDavid Beckham has finally kicked a ball on the field. The soccer god made his league debut yesterday in Washington D.C.’s RFK stadium. Over 47,000 fans came out to see the soccer player “Bend it like Beckham” but unfortunately no victory as Galaxy lost to D.C. United.
But David was in good spirits to have finally played the field. At a post game press conference he stated, "all the frustration I've had since I arrived at the Galaxy of not being able to train with the players, stepping out and seeing the reaction,"
When asked if he felt pressured by the large audience to take the field Thursday, Beckham replied, "No. I feel pressure in myself to just get back playing and get fit. That's the only pressure I feel."
The highlight of the game was when Beckham took off his shirt and waved to the roaring crowd. Do you feel like Beckham is being noted more for his looks these days than his soccer skills? We all know Beckham is suffering from an injury so was his move to the states a pr stunt to boost soccer sales or are you willing to give Beckham time to heal and start rocking the field? Tell us your thoughts, we want to know.
