MLS Cup TV Listings: Houston Dynamo vs. LA Galaxy

With a Ballwin native heading to the Major League Soccer finals, along with what will be David Beckham's swan song in U.S. pro soccer, the game will be one to watch for soccer fans.

For the second straight season, the Houston Dynamo and the LA Galaxy will square off for the top prize in men's American pro soccer, the MLS Cup. And that means another chance to catch a local soccer star on the field in what will also be David Beckham's last pro match in the U.S.

Ballwin native Pat Noonan (De Smet Jesuit) is expected to come off the bench for Los Angeles, facing off against fellow St. Louisans and Dynamo roster members, Brad Davis (Chaminade) and Will Bruin (De Smet Jesuit).

Davis and Bruin will look to avenge last year's final, a 1-0 Galaxy win.
