England midfielder David Beckham scored his first goal in Major League Soccer (MLS) play yesterday and contributed to another as the Los Angeles Galaxy defeated the San Jose Earthquakes 2-0.
Beckham arrived in the MLS to great fanfare last season but played little due to injuries.
He had scored once before for the Galaxy, on a direct free kick last August 15 against MLS rivals DC United in the SuperLiga tournament featuring MLS and Mexican clubs.
Landon Donovan also scored for the Galaxy, as they spoiled the Earthquakes� return to the US league after a two-year absence. Since then, the San Jose franchise had been moved to Houston and rechristened the Dynamo, leaving the California city without a club until the creation of the new Quakes.
Galaxy stars Beckham and Donovan made sure San Jose�s return to the league was not a winning one.
