Real Madrid 3 - 2 Bayern Munich


Whilst Manchester United were struggling in France, against a resilient but petulant Lille, two of their former stars were putting on a scintillating display at the Bernabeu.


Both David Beckham and Ruud Van Nistlerooy were heavily involved in Real's win over the efficient German side. In fact precision Beckham deliveries were behind all three of his side's goals. Two were netted by the 'old' maestro Raul, with Van Nistelroy getting a third on 34 minutes.


Bayern had got one back lo level, after 23 minutes, but they were behind at the interval. They scored an invaluable second goal after 88 minutes, when Mark Van Bommel set his side up for an interesting second leg.


Interviewed after the match, the in form David Beckham stated how playing for England had been his ambition since he was a boy. He went on to say that he would still be available to play for his country, either from Spain, or Los Angeles, and there was no doubting his sincerity. It would be foolhardy to ignore recent England results, that seem to suggest that his presence has been missed. Steve McClaren take note.


Elsewhere it was a goalless draw between Celtic and AC Milan, and Arsenal were beaten by a goal to nil by PSV Eindhoven.
