Woo Woo!
As well all know, David Beckham is notorious for personalizing his soccer cleats. David usually has his jersey number, Victoria's initials, his initials, and the names of his three sons inscribed on the shoes in some way shape or form. Well, it looks as if little Cruz it taking after his daddy. Check out his tiny Adidas sneakers embossed with his name! So cute!
David Beckham and the England team will surely celebrate tonight after victory in the FIFA 2010 World Cup Group 6 Qualifying match against Andorra at Wembley Stadium. The home team came out on top with a 6-0 win! Striker Wayne Rooney scored twice as did Jermain Defoe, and the other two goals came from Frank Lampard and Peter Crouch. David finally started the competitive game, which was his first in two years. Tonight's appearance also marked 112 caps for lucky #7. His lovely wife was there in the stands cheering him on.
As we all know, the England team got brand new shirts - or kits, as they call them, and I think they are very professional looking - especially when you see them on the field. Now you can get your own Beckham shirt for $102 on the official England site. I'm sure this will be a hot seller! Especially after the last 2 matches.
Here are the new England shirts. They are very professional looking but look more like office wear than a piece of a soccer uniform but I kinda like them. Anyway, David did not start the friendly match but did come on as a sub in the 46th minute. Victoria and the boys are in the stands much as I predicted. I will update everything from the match later on but for now, you can check a play by play here.
The AC Milan soccer club has lost a member of it's family last night. Mrs. Antonietta Berlusconi Beretta, the president's sister, passed away at the age of 65. In memorium, David and the rest of the players will wear a a mourning's band around their arms as a sign of remembrance during the game tonight. Also, before the start of the Uefa Cup game, a momment of silence in honor of her memory will be observed at San Siro.
Today was the big day for David Beckham fans in Milan. The soccer superstar launched his brand new soccer cleats by Adidas called Predator Climacool. The launch was held at the Adidas store in Milan, corso Buenos Aires 88. David was greeted by a larger than expected crowd of fans and he kindly signed autographs and posed for pictures with as many as he could! I love how he held the camera to take the close ups with his adoring fans! So sweet! Did anyone happen to attend the launch? If so, I would love to hear how it was and see pics! Let me know!
As I mentioned to you all, if you are in Milan on Monday, David Beckham is launching his new soccer cleats from Adidas called Predator Climacool and he will be having a meet and greet session. Thanks to our friends at GlamBeckhams Blog, we have some new photos of David and the cleats.
AC Milan's next match will be played tomorrow against Hannover 96 at the AWD Arena. The match sparks a new contact between Milan and German football after the Emirates Cup in Dubai. Tomorrow the Rossoneri squad will depart from the Malpensa airport at 10:20 to reach Hannover, where the game will be played at 8:30 (all Italian time). Just before midnight tomorrow, Milan will then leave the German city to return to Malpensa. Milans uniform will be the complete white outfit: shirt, socks and shorts will all be white.
Yes there have been many more photos released of David training with the rest of his AC Milan teammates but after looking at them all, and they all seem to be looking exactly the same, I found these close ups of David's cleats. I thought I would bring them to your attention because if you look closely at them, you see his AC Milan #32, the Italian flag, and two script initials of "DB" and a "V" which obviously stand for David and Victoria. The initials are written much like the matching wrist tattoos of the couple. And if you look closer, you will see the names of his three sons. How sweet is that?
