…Still haunts me…..
David Beckham has revealed that the red card he received at the 1998 World Cup still hurts him. Beckham was sent off for kicking the back of Diego Simeone’s leg during a last-16 match against Argentina. England went on to lose the match on penalties.
In a new Netflix documentary series entitled “Beckham”, Beckham said that the red card was a “devastating” moment for him. He said that he felt like he had let his team and his country down.
“The red card was a devastating moment for me,” Beckham said. “I felt like I had let my team and my country down. I was still a young player at the time, and I didn’t know how to deal with it.”
Beckham said that he was “haunted” by the red card for many years. He said that he would often wake up in the middle of the night thinking about it.
