David Beckham was pleased with his assist for Landon Donovan's goal in LA Galaxy's 1-1 draw at Kansas City Wizards last night. The England midfielder said: "Overall, I don't think it was our best night of soccer. We've moved on from a few months ago. We're trying to win games that we probably would have settled for the draw.

"But it's a good bunch of guys and I do think we deserved at least a draw tonight.

"It was nice to get my first assist back in the league. It's good to be out there at the moment. It's a good bunch of guys like I said and working hard for each other. We enjoyed it tonight."

Wizards star Claudio Lopez struck a contender for goal of the season and Beckham said of the former Argentina striker: "It was a great goal. It doesn't matter what league it's in or where it is in the world. It was a great goal. All credit to him, he's a great player and good goal tonight."

Manchester United legend Beckham also thanked the Wizards fans for their support. The game was a sellout and Becks added: "There was a great reaction tonight from the fans. When you go to the away stadiums, you don't expect to have anybody on your side.

"Tonight it was a great atmosphere: Lots of families, lots of kids, and a lot of people who seemed to enjoy the game. So I hope they went home happy, and it was nice to have their support because it was a really nice atmosphere to play in."
