Becks factor

Without CM, AM, PB2, R?, NW and I, there would've been a mere 80,289 people at Telstra Stadium disbelieving their luck as Sydney FC trumped LA Galaxy 5-3. It was an international club clash with the lot: glory for the Aussie underdogs, eight goals including one from a classic David Beckham free kick, numerous near misses, several yellow cards, push'n'shove and a visitor sent off, and a terrifically positive atmosphere - at least in row 41 of section 145. I can't recall such a high proportion of young women at an A-League or Socceroos game :-)
