David Beckham Left Off Galaxy Line Up
David Beckham’s left ankle injury is still acting up. After playing only 13 minutes in his L.A. Galaxy on Saturday, he has been pulled from the line up for the upcoming match against Mexico’s Pachuca.
He missed Monday’s training session, and spent the day nursing his sore ankle.
‘His chances are slim for tomorrow,’ said Galaxy coach Frank Yallop.
‘He’s still sore, probably the same condition he was before the game against Chelsea, but the good thing was that he didn’t re-injure it.
‘He wanted to play in that game, but we have to make sure it’s right for our games.’
However, Yallup is optimistic about Beckham playing in Saturday’s match against Chivas Guadalajara.
‘I don’t think he’ll be ready for Pachuca, but we’ll see how he does for Chivas,’ added the Galaxy head coach.
‘I hate to keep saying this, but it is day to day - and we don’t want to rush him and end up putting him backwards. We’re going to clear this thing up and make sure he’s ready to play.’
The match against Pachuca will be the first soccer event between an American and Mexican teams.
Get better David! I want to see you back in top form!
