@Tiago Leonardo Arevalo Morales well it got bigger since then, it now has 25k seats. and the tickets have been sold out since 2011 when they arrived in MLS prior to COVID.
Absolutely terrific goal any team should know not to give Beckham or any player really that much space especially if they're known for being good at scoring such a distance and with curves.
As an avid Galaxy fan, this may be the most memorable goal for me ever. The shot itself, the atmosphere of the stadium, the tying goal after falling behind (again), Beckham's reaction, the Timbers Army... fantastic.
After not being selected for the Great Britain Olympic team, David Beckham has been on fire, and here he scores a spectacular goal from 35 yards out to level the score for the LA Galaxy against the Portland Timbers in their match on July 14, 2012.
The MLS is definitely getting better. I mean it will never compete with the standard we have here in England and the rest of Europe but that's understandable: Football isnt the main sport in the US and it never will be. But I've been tracking the leagues progress ever since Beckham joined LA and the standard of football on show is unquestionably improving, attendances are going up and the fans are becoming a lot more passionate. I feel the MLS will only get better and better. Very good to see
Such a great player ... he never lost it ... but it can't be doubted ... his former Manchester United and England team mates ... Giggs and Scholes .. are totally on another level .. especially Scholes as he is the best midfielder ever .. the Perfect midfielder was how some described him (the likes of Zidane, Xavi, Alonso, Messi, Guardiola )
i love American soccer (football), its still fresh and exciting to watch, hasnt been tactically locked down, it has a bravado and innnocents about it...love it
I hope this is the game that gets the team going! Reminded me of the monster team they were last year. We already have the Stanley Cup, now I hope we get the MLS Cup again, and maybe also the World Series. It will be like a dream here in Los Angeles.
The MLS is growing. More and more players will play there also europeans. Further more we in europe need to acknowledge the fact that the US team is pretty good. And is getting better every year. Getting to the top takes time but the US and the MLS will get there it is just the American way.
I think he can be counted as one of the best center midfielders of all time. He can run with the ball very well, he has a bullet of a shot, he has a quality free kick, he has great vision and is a great natural leader.
I disagree with people stating that the keeper could/should have done better. This was a quality finish from a man who in my opinion could still be used, albeit sparingly, in a top European club. Few players would have attempted that shot. Pure class!
He did such things in Europe too.And he was a nightmare for every keeper while he was in europe.And think about his time in Man United,he used to score even better goals.
naa i'm english, Beckhams an unbelievably talented player, he's always played out wide, he wasn't switched there, and he's one of the best passers of the ball in the past 20 years, unbelievable techars! would you say roy keans more gifted than beckham?
The man strikes a better dead ball than pretty much everyone on earth, aside from Juninho, Riquelme, and CR7, arguably. Hats off to a legend, regardless of where his career takes him.
Way better than all of them except Juninho who was equally great at the direct shots but nowhere near on assists from free kicks (or indeed corners), and Ronaldinho who was also absolutely brilliant. You’ve also got to remember that Beckham and Ronaldinho played most of their careers in far better leagues than Juninho. Messi is the best currently and may get close to their numbers ultimately but I don’t see anyone as better than Beckham because of the number of assists he also made from free kicks, he was extremely dangerous even from the touch lines because he could curl it with pinpoint accuracy for his teammates to head.
you are in dreamland man.. no one can like play like him... he can score in free kick,can assists,and he never misses in free kicks.. but messi can only score when there is xavi and iniesta..
henry jus scored a good goal too, a brilliant volley, tbh beckham should even play for england and henry for france, if theres gonna be someone waiting on the bench for the last 10 minutes might as well be low stamina but very capable legends
Bobby Moore best ever english player all day lo g. Played a world cup with cancer didnt tell the rest of the team because he wanted their minds on the game!! Hero!!
I really do not understand why people feel the need to compare the MLS to European leagues. I am an EPL fan and live in the United States but i respect the MLS. Yes, they do not have the players like Ronaldo, Messi, Aguero etc but the league is trying to spread football here in the U.S. where people don't give this sport a try. The league maybe, as you say sub par, but i would love to see you go out there onto the field and perform at the level they do every week.
You even said it, free kicks and corners are all static plays, that's my criticism to Beckham, he's not dynamics. To satisfied your admiration, his dipping cross from the flank is precise, calculated and intent, that is his main weapon and what made him a good wide player and quite successful in Man U. Also his free kicks is reliable and can change the game, that's all i can objectively made. Best is an honest man, i believe the only time he isn't pissed was during his sleep as he said!
Amazing player. Even now :)
I didn't expect you to be there.
Matttt Big fan
Haha whats up matt😉
Woah
As a french. Always people says football is not popular in USA. But when I see people in the stadium I am jealous. More people than french Ligue 1.
@Tiago Leonardo Arevalo Morales well it got bigger since then, it now has 25k seats. and the tickets have been sold out since 2011 when they arrived in MLS prior to COVID.
That's not football, that's soccer
lol
@@lightbearer9561 it's football but sure
true👍🏾
Most Popular Sport among USA Youth
Even out of his prime. He is a phenomenal player.
Alex Basha
Yes Alex all day long
No it's because it was the MLS
@@john5189 You're dumb ...he did this all his life in every league he played ..
@@john5189 the shot isn't affected by the league lol
That smug face after the goal is a +1 point
00:14 best goal celebration ever.
Zach Couch David beck: "That goal was nothing, I can do more like them and even better things"
Zlatan also celebrates like this
It still blows my mind that at one point Beckam, Donovan, Keane, and Magee all played for LA at the same time.
Seriously! I wish we still had Magee
dont forget Omar ;)
Jimbo Slice Now in 2016 they are back minus Beckham
Yesss!!! Miss it
I know right!
Absolutely terrific goal any team should know not to give Beckham or any player really that much space especially if they're known for being good at scoring such a distance and with curves.
It's nice how the MLS has grown....and how passionate the fans are starting to be.
Respect from Liverpool FC (the real home of football)...YNWA
As an avid Galaxy fan, this may be the most memorable goal for me ever. The shot itself, the atmosphere of the stadium, the tying goal after falling behind (again), Beckham's reaction, the Timbers Army... fantastic.
Zlatan: Hold my beer.
The most delicate right foot in the football world history, childhood idol. His 2001/2002 season, he was definitely the best player in the world.
0:24 that half naked guy was worshipping him like a god.
Lmfao
beckam is god
heyyWilll heyyy who?
That celebration brought flashes of King Cantona at United!!!!
Glory Glory United!!! UTID!!!
haha I love when Beckham and Keane look at each other as if to say "That goal was pretty good" "yeah".
Notice the run of Donovan 0:00 to open up the space as he draws 2 defenders in. Great off the ball movement.
Wish England still had amazing players
Sohan Mirchandani sooo true. And those players were class. Think about it what team.
They have better players now to be honest
Ur acting like those players won anything lol
Dont worry h.kane is there
David Beckham: Single handedly keeping the MLS interesting
Lol 35 yards out?
No one liked your comment lol.
Denis R.
he s got six, one like every year..
ChrisMD? 15 likes. I'll make it one more
now he's got 93
ChrisMD 102
Beckham is/was one of the world's best and I've been following football since 20 years ago!

Keeper was never getting that. Where were the defenders? Can't give Beckham that kind of space.
Such a great player ... he never lost it ... but it can't be doubted ... his former Manchester United and England team mates ... Giggs and Scholes .. are totally on another level .. especially Scholes as he is the best midfielder ever .. the Perfect midfielder was how some described him (the likes of Zidane, Xavi, Alonso, Messi, Guardiola )
He was given enough space and time to shoot the ball. It's the defense's fault
Best reaction ever from Beckham !
Sir David Beckham. Galaxy best team in MLS
he did what he does best
LA Galaxy 😂 what the heck 🤔
سوري وافتخر now they have zlatan and they’re still terrible
Better team than arabs
i love American soccer (football), its still fresh and exciting to watch, hasnt been tactically locked down, it has a bravado and innnocents about it...love it
Who's Beckham? lol xD
I have no idea, i just like to stick up for Becks being the england legend he is, and a massive role model when i was growing up.
a legend would never die :)
My favourite lagend savid bekham. Love you bekham♥️♥️♥️
I love how keane and beckham look at each other like "not bad"
I hope this is the game that gets the team going! Reminded me of the monster team they were last year. We already have the Stanley Cup, now I hope we get the MLS Cup again, and maybe also the World Series. It will be like a dream here in Los Angeles.
Loved his expressions after the goal, "Piece a cake"
they really gave Beckham a long run up time before the kick, what a noble and kind gesture from the opposing team
I will never understand how Pearce could omit him from Team GB. So many people would wanna see Giggs and Beckham play together again
Back of the net
Becks great ambassador
And top bloke
0:14
Team mate: How'd you do that?
David Beckham: Cause I'm a boss ;)
He's powerful midfielder who can score & he's a legend player!
That’s called precision!!
This is just pure beauty.
The MLS is growing. More and more players will play there also europeans.
Further more we in europe need to acknowledge the fact that the US team is pretty good.
And is getting better every year. Getting to the top takes time but the US and the MLS will get there it is just the American way.
it was a classic goal from a world class player, is a shame GB will miss this kind of stuff.
I think he can be counted as one of the best center midfielders of all time. He can run with the ball very well, he has a bullet of a shot, he has a quality free kick, he has great vision and is a great natural leader.
He was a key figure in the 2012 bid, and he's an ambassador
I disagree with people stating that the keeper could/should have done better. This was a quality finish from a man who in my opinion could still be used, albeit sparingly, in a top European club. Few players would have attempted that shot. Pure class!
Pure genious? Unmarked man that shoots! Cmon!
Glad to see him make a goal. He is still wonderful. Can't understand why they didn't pick him.
I agree with you matt, its a real shame he didnt get picked for the olympic team. Oh and i love your vids!
Top Class Goal, Top Class Player.
He did such things in Europe too.And he was a nightmare for every keeper while he was in europe.And think about his time in Man United,he used to score even better goals.
naa i'm english, Beckhams an unbelievably talented player, he's always played out wide, he wasn't switched there, and he's one of the best passers of the ball in the past 20 years, unbelievable techars! would you say roy keans more gifted than beckham?
I just love watching Beckham & Henry just toy around in this subpar league ;]
he did again....superb
Manchester united miss him ... amazing player
impressed by how many people are watching the mls games these days
fantastic strike...pure Beckham
america is the best at soccer. mls is the best league in the world
That had to be the best celebration between him and keane i've ever seen in MLS.
Legend...
He still got it!!!!
GOTS for the MLS. For the MLS that is a spectacular goal. They don't have anywhere near the number of good players we do in the Prem.
i love his celebration
one of the best goals i have ever seen...
good to see football becoming a growing sport in america.
Beckham is the king of set piece.
beckham is still a beast pure genius
Beckham, I Love You
Amazing player.
Fantastic goal beckham
Amazing goal it's a disgrace that hes not in the GB football team. Nice one Becks!
What a goal!!!
THANK YOU MR BECKHAM FOR MAKING SOCCER IN THE USA BIG!!!! :)
MY all TIME Like!! DB23!! Legend!!
He is the best! always...

Awesome goal
He still has the spark inside him.
Even at the age of 60 he's still better than you ever will be no matter how hard you would try. Enough said.
and he does it again
Legend
i just love how great you think Beckham and Henry still are....
