It's a Hollywood ending for Beckham as he brings five-year career in LA to a glorious end by lifting MLS Cup

David Beckham got his Hollywood happy ending last night with a scene-stealing performance to secure the MLS Cup for L.A Galaxy in his final game for the team.
It's also likely to be the former England captain's last match in America with a mooted move to Europe and many suspect the next stop will be Paris.
So it was all set up to be a perfect farewell, if Galaxy could defeat Houston Dynamo. But Goldenballs was never going to leave that to chance.

With team-mate Robbie Keane, the 36-year-old set up Landon Donovan for the only goal in Sunday's final that won Beckham's first silverware in America since his arrival five years ago.
And he did it front of over 31,000 fanatical MLS fans at their Home Deport stadium in Carson.
He has been linked with a move to wealthy Paris St-Germain and said: 'Whether I stay or not, I've had an amazing five years.
'People were talking about if we didn't win it was going to be a disappointment and an unsuccessful five years. It's quietened a few people which is always nice.'

He added: 'I've loved it here. The fans have been unbelievable - the owners, the players, every one of them are heroes. They've been incredible all season and this has capped it off.

GLITTERING CAREER OF GOLDENBALLS

David Beckham, reportedly worth £125 million, has had a trophy-laden career since he burst into the Manchester United team as a teenager.
He won six Premier League titles, two FA Cups and the Champions League in 1999 before leaving the Reds for Real Madrid in 2003.
He was captain of England and earned his much-heralded 100th cap against France in 2008.
In his fourth and final season at the Bernabeu he won his only La Liga title before signing for LA Galaxy in a £30million five-year deal.

'I've said that all along, it doesn't matter what happens at the end of the season.
'I need to sit back, relax and enjoy this moment. I might talk in the the past tense but that doesn't mean I am not coming back.'
Beckham, who played the full game despite suffering a hamstring problem in training last week, joined Galaxy from Real Madrid in 2007.
Galaxy supporters sang, 'We want Beckham' after seeing their team win a first title since 2005.
Team Beckham were present en masse, with Victoria, 37 , leading the cheers with their children Brooklyn, 12, Romeo, nine , Cruz, six , and baby Harper, who is just four months old.
Victoria looked stressed as she watched the match intently, obviously urging her beloved on to achieve the perfect note with which to sign off.
It's the first memory like this for Romeo and Cruz, certainly, and Brooklyn was just seven years old when the family moved across the Atlantic.
The couple, who will return to their Hertfordshire home for Christmas, are due to announce the decision before Beckham’s five-year deal with LA Galaxy ends on December 31.
He will take part in the club's tour of Indonesia, the Philippines and Australia, which starts next week.
‘David is all geared up for the cup final but after that he and Victoria will make the decision over whether or not to accept the Paris deal,’ a source close to the football star says.

‘Once the last match is out of the way, talks will ensue with his management and I suspect they will move very quickly.’

The former Manchester United man moved to LA from Real following his resignation as England captain after the 2006 World Cup. He signed a deal worth almost £6million a year.
Beckham has made 26 appearances for Galaxy this season, a campaign that has seen a seven per cent increase in attendances across the MLS.

With Beckham in the side, Galaxy reached the final of the MLS play-offs in 2009, the semi-finals in 2010 and met Houston Dynamo in this year's final.
League games will be broadcast on the high-profile NBC Sports television network for the first time next season, while Galaxy have just secured a $55million deal with Time Warner Cable Sports.

The chief of Major League Soccer, Don Garber admitted that at times he regretted the hype of Beckham's arrival, but not the excitement he generated

Thanks for the support: David went to great lengths to thank the fans

He said:'He's been great for our league and for our game. I find it amusing that when David came in many sports media pundits were saying how much he's over the hill, you don't hear that any more, and this is five years later.
'I underestimated the power of his celebrity by a long shot. I totally underestimated how hardworking and tough he is. He will play through injury and fatigue.
'That warrior-like mentality was like nobody expected in MLS.'
