Before we start discussing David Beckham, I want you to watch a small clip. Even if you may have seen it, the football romantic within you can never say no to any number of replays of this beautiful pass.

This is only one of the many pin-point crosses which Beckham has delivered over the course of his career – that too when it mattered the most. Maybe it’s time to re-visit that night at Camp Nou in 1999.
“I remember that, even though the pitch at the Nou Camp is so big, you hardly have any room down by the flags to take corners. I saw Peter come charging up into the Bayern area and tried to steady myself. Don’t mess this up. Just float it in and try to put it in a dangerous over.
I sent it over. The ball bounced out to Giggsy. He mis-hit it and it bounced through to Teddy Sheringham, the other sub, who knocked it in. Teddy was so close to being offside. But he wasn’t. And we were level, 1-1. Everybody went up. ”
