Update: Galaxy-Barcelona
Galaxy 0 Barcelona 1
That didn't take long - and looked painfully familiar
Galaxy goalkeeper Josh Saunders failed to hold Rodriguez Ledesma's initial 11th minute shot from just inside the box, the ball fell to Lionel Messi who saw another shot cleared off the line, but Rodriguez Ledesma again picked up the rebound to score.
Former Real Madrid star Beckham is getting booed every time he touches the ball from Galaxy fans and (one assumes) fans of Real's arch rival.
