Steven Gerrard makes LA Galaxy debut in victory over Club America

Steven Gerrard played 45 minutes on his LA Galaxy debut as his new team beat Club America 2-1 in the International Champions Cup. The former Liverpool man was donning a shirt of a different club team for the first time in 27 years and would have been impressed with what he encountered with goals from Robbie Keane and Alan Gordon earning LA a morale-boosting win. Gerrard – as expected – played just the first half and he impressed in centre-midfield, showing off his array of long passing skills and nearly got on scoresheet, only to be denied from close range by Hugo Gonzalez.
