David Beckham: Suspended over on-pitch brawl
The Los Angeles Galaxy footballer David Beckham has been suspended for one MLS game after his involvement in an on-pitch mini-brawl.

The sexy soccer star became frustrated with San Jose Earthquakes player Sam Cronin, whom he believed was time-wasting at the end of a recent game.
The sports-star kicked the ball 30 yards and hit Cronin in the legs, before he got up and started shouting at the Englishman.
This incident started a row between many players on the pitch, while a mascot attempted to calm Beckham down.
An MLS statement said: "The committee considered his conduct unacceptable and detrimental to the league's public image.
"Beckham will serve his suspension on Sunday when the Galaxy take on the Chicago Fire."
This order of suspension rounds off a tough few days for the midfielder, who was recently not picked for Team GB's football squad by Stuart Pearce.
