Beckham effect after a year in the MLS
Posted On 07/24/2008 15:17:19 by Stevo



It has been one year since David Beckham joined the Los Angeles Galaxy football team in the United States.

On the field, Beckham has become a one-man show, responsible for the Galaxy averaging a
league-best 25,513 at home and a league-high 27,094 on the road this year. The Galaxy website could not be accused of understating Beckham, describing him as “one of the world’s most recognisable people”.

New York Red Bulls had a crowd of 46,754 for the visit of the Galaxy on Saturday. Usually around 10,000 watch their home games. The 66,237 – an MLS record – who went to Giants Stadium last August to see Beckham and the Galaxy was more than for their five previous home MLS games put together.
