CARSON, Calif. (AP) David Beckham was limited to some stretching and kicking drills because of a lingering ankle injury in his first practice Monday since joining the Los Angeles Galaxy.
He is scheduled to make his playing debut Saturday in an exhibition against Chelsea, but Galaxy coach Frank Yallop said the superstar midfielder is day-to-day.
"His ankle is quite swollen," Yallop said. "We're hoping it recovers quickly and he can have some part in the game."
