it was a bad start from real madrid came in from behind, i think it has always been a great feeling to score after conceading; that could only mean one thing, passion and determination. it was the 'show' david beckham showed last night and what he earned was no less than respect from his teammates. being treated terribly didnt mean he could walk out from his team and tried nothin. hes always been different from any other players. WC 98 is the best example among all. half of his countrymen despised him and considered him as a joke, but it didnt stop him from claiming title with Man Utd. gladly, MU boss alex ferguson backed him up all the way as well as his teammates. nevertheless, it was a painful experience for him as a footballer and graced him a precious lesson from that moment on. since that date, beck turned into a different kind player fueled with passion for football in a greater level. it seemed his awful experience booted out from MU never stop haunting him as bad luck kept his eyes on becks. for 3 consecutive yrs real have failed to win major trophies both domestically and regionally. having 5 coaches in only 2 1/2 yrs made things even harder and heavier.

only starting for few matches this season doesnt stop becks to earn every minutes hes been given to make somethin special. his comebacks have always been phenomenal and regarded as the right moment for him to answer critics. frozen out by capello about a month ago meant everything to him. at the age 31 he wants to give his best for the fans and the team esp, when he'll be leaving bernabeu soon. however, capello thought otherwise and given him a 'punishment' not to be allowed to wear white shirt till his contract runs out which is this summer. however, mounting pressure on capello following worse defeat last week in santiago bernabeu pushed capello over the edge and made him back down on his own words. he let becks to start last night and it proved to be a good decision. becks took the free kick and leveled the game in 37 mins. and in the second half, ruudtje took the lead for real madrid and brought home a precious 3 points. it was an important win for real madrid as there were reports that fabio capello would have been a former real madrid manager if real had lost again. no one can verify the report but it wasnt necessary right now to discuss the managers future as real madrid need to concentrate even harder in the next matches. hopefully, they can gain more points in upcoming matches to get closer to la liga winter champions barcelona.

ps: i love his new boots....charming
