Recap: David Wears the Galaxy's Captain Band

David Beckham was asked to wear the captain's armband for the Los Angeles Galaxy for the first time in three years. Coach Bruce Arena decided that Beckham would be the captain for the team's game at Real Salt Lake because the regining captain, Landon Donovan, missed the match because he was with the U.S. national team for its exhibition against Argentina in East Rutherford, N.J. David took over as captain when he joined the team in 2007 but last captained the Galaxy on Oct. 26, 2008. "Yeah, Bruce has asked me to wear it, and I'll be proud to wear it," Beckham said. "It doesn't change the way I play. It's something you're very proud to wear, but you need more that that one leader on the field."


Unfortunately the LA Galaxy lost the match with a final score of 4-1.
