05/10/2001 - Beckham practicing Free-Kicks in Training. His Final Free-Kick would be replicated 24 Hours later… 06/10/2001 - England vs Greece Beckham Scoring a Last Minute Free-Kick to send England through to the 2002 World Cup 🎯

He hit the real one even cleaner, with all the pressure and the weight of a nation on his shoulders

One of my favourite EVER football memories. Beckham covered every blade of grass in that game too. Something that people don’t always realise.

He rehearsed the script in training and Greece still didn’t read it.

The cute thing is he needed that many chances in the actual game too. I remember watching! Legend

Fascinating

Yes, England spent the last few minutes of the Greece match hitting the ball long to Sheringham for him to flop down 30 yards from goal claiming a foul to set up the late free kick goal.

There’s the secret to success ladies and gentlemen PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE
