The crazy thing is the goalkeepers are all experienced, top goalies, they saw it was David Beckham putting the ball down for the free kick, they knew what he was going to do, they probably even knew where he would be aiming. But again and again, they still failed to reach his curving shots. That I think speaks volumes about how difficult they were to deal with.

There's a reason why their's a film called "Bend it like Beckham". wizardry, pure and simple.

Arguably one of the best midfield players ever to grace a football stadium. ❤

What an amazing NO.7 David was for United and one of the best mid-fielders passers and crossers of the ball there ever was

Pity it misses his domestic United years, presumably because of copyright. Every United game seemed to include at least one passage of play where Beckham and Gary Neville would bamboozle the left back before Becks swung it in for Sheringham to head home - except when he let Neville cross just to confuse the opposition further. Those crosses were as much his trademark as his free kicks and raking cross-field passed in my view.

Never watched Beckham play but after watching these clips… man he was absolutely phenomenal and one of the best players ever

An absolute LEGEND of the game, He was BRILLIANT with any ball at his feet........Period!

a very  rounded look at David Beckham's skills --- to pass as he did was and forever will be an example to others

We need another Beckham in the England team. Shoots from what looks a mile away and scores. I've seen him in an England game unbelievable.

I always enjoyed watching Beckham play nobody but nobody could bend it like Beckham he was a masterclass in ball control, great footballer and very much missed.

Beckham has displayed his talent everywhere over the world with success. IMO the best set piece player of all time. Bend it like Beckham isn’t a cute phrase but a true statement

Becks deserves his knighthood.they left it late though.shouldve got it years ago.very very well deserved

Some ridicolous shots and goals and passes ,amazing really how he curls the ball ,what a legend he was

David Beckham deserved to be knighted by the King as he has won so many football games for England.

His best free kick was against Greece playing for England purely because of the pressure but it was a superb free kick.

He was the fotbal hero of my teens. What a legend.

he was also a great playmaker with an unbelievable vision

Sir David Beckham

That right foot was so lethal man and the curve was so beautiful

@2:58 becks says to robbie keane '' not bad''. what a man.
