LANDON DONOVAN paid tribute to David Beckham after firing LA Galaxy into the MLS play-off race.
The US striker, who last month clashed with Becks after questioning his commitment to Galaxy, also confirmed they had firmly put the row behind them.
With Beckham pulling the strings in midfield, Donovan fired home a left-foot strike in their 2-1 win at New England.
It put them in the chase for a play-off place for the first time in four years.
Donovan celebrated by jumping into Beckham's arms. Then he said: "David's been great since he's been back, in every way.
"He's added something off the field to the group and his qualities on the field make us a lot better.
"Regarding the book, no one wants to hear those kind of things about them, especially like that.
"David's taken it like a man and has moved on from it."
Beckham also shrugged off a physical battle with Revolution midfielder Kenny Mansally.

Ronaldo also set up two goals for Raul.
