The last time the Los Angeles Galaxy and New York Red Bulls faced off, they battled to a 5-4 contest at Giants Stadium in what was arguably one of the best games in MLS history. In that game, David Beckham picked up two assists, while Juan Pablo Angel and Jozy Altidore each scored a pair for New York en route to a dramatic victory. This match saw over 68,000 enjoy a pinball-like goalfest, and it got even more than the usual media attention due to that crowd size, and because Beckham's assists were his first in MLS.
