Beckham and LA Galaxy to Play Minnesota Thunder on Nov. 11th Oct. 23, 2007
The Minnesota Thunder announced today the rescheduled date for the inaugural Copa Minnesota soccer match. On Sunday, November 11 at 5:30 p.m., the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome will play host to international soccer superstar David Beckham and his team, the Los Angeles Galaxy, in a match against the Minnesota Thunder. In response to making the event more family-affordable, tickets have been re-priced starting at $15 for the lower bowl. A portion of the proceeds will benefit various children's charities such as Thunder P.L.U.S. and Foundation IX. Copa Minnesota is Beckham's only scheduled US visit to a non-MLS city and one of his only appearances anywhere during the 2007 MLS season, due to his injuries. Beckham, celebrated throughout the world for his unparalleled abilities on the pitch, joined the Los Angeles Galaxy in January after mega-successful tenures with Real Madrid, Manchester United, and the English national team. Copa Minnesota will be an annual event hosted by the Thunder that will bring top soccer teams from across North America to battle for the Copa Minnesota trophy. “We are thrilled that the first Copa Minnesota will feature our own Minnesota Thunder in a match against the LA Galaxy,” said Thunder president and director of soccer operations Manny Lagos. “With our new team ownership and the emphasis we are putting on bringing home another championship to Minnesota , we wanted to showcase our hometown team against the Galaxy and their superstar David Beckham. This is an amazing soccer event that will certainly boost local and regional interest in the sport and we wanted to make it affordable for everybody.” The LA Galaxy are led by head coach Frank Yallop, who most recently coached the Canadian National Team after winning two MLS Cup Championships with the San Jose Earthquakes (MLS). In addition to Beckham, the Galaxy's roster includes a number of U.S. national team members including two of the USA 's most capped players: Cobi Jones (164 games) and Landon Donovan (94 games). Donovan became the US National Team's all-time leading goal scorer in 2007. The Galaxy narrowly missed the 2007 playoffs this year after winning five of their last seven matches. Various youth charities will benefit from the ticket sales including Thunder P.L.U.S. and Foundation IX.

The Galaxy opened their stadium, the Home Depot Center on June 7. But in order for their home to be ready, the team had to play a record 8 games to start the season and failed to win a game. In fact, the Galaxy finish the season without a win away from home the whole season. After the season's final game, the Galaxy had the final playoff spot in the West. In their aggregate series with the Earthquakes, they seemed well on to vindication for the MLS Cup loss 2 years earlier as they held 4 goals to 0 lead midway through the 2 nd game. A thing happened as the Earthquakes scored four unanswered goals to force a tiebreaker. In that session, the Earthquakes' Rodrigo Farina score to send the Quakes onto the next round. In 2004 Looking to return to the top, the Galaxy would go through a mediocre 1 st half of the season before 3 straight wins over the summer. But from July 14 on, the Galaxy won only 2 more games, one in September and one in October. The Galaxy had a record of 11-9-10, good enough for 2nd in the West and the playoff, remaining the only club in MLS to have a playoff spot in every year of league in the playoffs, the Galaxy withstood an early challenge from the Rapids to win the aggregate goal series, 2-1, scoring 2 times in Game 2. In the conference final, the Galaxy's season would come to an end in Kansas with a 2-0 loss to Arnaud and the Wizards. |
