Sharp scored on debut for LA Galaxy after surprise stateside move

Paul Heckingbottom has wished Billy Sharp every success in his new adventure stateside, after the former Sheffield United skipper scored on his LA Galaxy debut. The 37-year-old netted from the penalty spot against Chicago Fire in a 3-0 victory.

Sharp had been without a club since leaving the Blades at the expiry of his contract in June. After being linked with a host of clubs, including Rotherham United and Derby County, his move to Los Angeles was confirmed earlier this month. Sharp came off the bench with 20 minutes to go before capping victory with a typically-decisive penalty.
