Beckham could play limited role for Galaxy against Bulls

Friday, 19 October 2007


LOS ANGELES, Oct 18 (AFP): The Los Angeles Galaxy are hopeful that England star David Beckham can return to the lineup for Thursday's Major League Soccer game against the New York Red Bulls.
"He would be a pretty valuable substitute I would think if he's available for our team," coach Frank Yallop said. "We know the quality of David and what he brings to the team, so if he is feeling good and we want to do it, we will."
After taking on New York, the Galaxy travel to Chicago to face the Fire in an all-important season ender that could decide a playoff spot.
The Galaxy are in a playoff tussle and they need to win, or at least draw, against the Red Bulls to keep their playoff hopes alive.
