David Beckham aims to go back-to-back with L.A. Galaxy
When David Beckham finally won the MLS Cup last November, took a little too much champagne and partied into the night with will.i.am, it was easy to feel that the English soccer icon had reached the end of his American adventure, and perhaps even the end of his career,now he like the cheap Cristiano Ronaldo.
David Beckham has scored seven goals in the 24 games this season. (Getty Images)Yet there he was a couple of months later announcing he would be back with the Los Angeles Galaxy for two years, and there he still was on the pages of the tabloids, hanging out in Beverly Hills on his motorbike, or in his beanie, or at a coffee shop, or (if the paparazzi are really lucky) all three at the same time.
And here he is back in the MLS playoffs and, despite the Galaxy's abysmal beginning to a campaign they started as overwhelming favorites cheap Maillot Joueur
, with a realistic shot at going back-to-back. L.A. is in action Thursday night, hosting the Vancouver Whitecaps in a one-off elimination game that carries the prize of facing regular-season table toppers the San Jose Earthquakes in a home-and-home series.
Still, while Beckham is as coveted as ever among celebrity photographers, his soccer profile has considerably diminished. Whereas once any Galaxy media briefing was filled with questions about the 37-year-old, the team's head coach Bruce Arena did not have to field a single query about him earlier this week.
But Beckham has been written off before and having missed much of September through injury he may be determined to prove a point,everyone like Maillot France
. The Galaxy's greatly improved form during the latter part of the season was not tempered by his absence, though it would be foolish to think Beckham's guile and experience could not be of enhanced use during the more tense moments of the playoffs.
