As a result of a minor finger cut, David had to change out of a blood-stained kit during a game for Los Angeles Galaxy in October 2010. The impromptu strip that followed was greeted with delight by the watching crowd.

David scored a 33rd-minute equaliser after visitors FC Dallas took an early lead through Atiba Harris. The home side built on Beckham's strike and eventually won 2-1.
