LOS ANGELES: David Beckham may have led the Los Angeles Galaxy to the MLS championship game, but he has been left out of the league's all-star squad.

While Galaxy midfielder Landon Donovan and Swedish star Freddie Ljunberg made the squad, there was no room for Beckham.

Beckham's Galaxy will face Real Salt Lake in the 2009 MLS Cup game in Seattle on Sunday.

Donovan and Ljunberg were two of the five midfielders on the 11-man all-star team which also comprised one goalkeeper, three defenders and two forwards.

Chivas USA's Zach Thornton was picked as a goalkeeper while the defence featured Columbus Crew centre back Chad Marshall, Houston Dynamo's Geoff Cameron and the Chicago Fire's Wilman Conde.

The league's top two goal-scorers from the regular season, FC Dallas striker Jeff Cunningham and Colorado Rapids forward Conor Casey earned the forward honours.
