Beckham gets first game with Milan

After speculation about how long it would take to reach match-fitness, Beckham defied his critics by playing the first 45 minutes of the friendly Dubai Football Challenge against Hamburg, to be replaced for the second half by Flamini.
David assumed his usual role on the right side of midfield and showed his usual dedication to the cause and high work-rate, it remains to be seen whether he has done enough to merit a regular spot.
The full-time score was 1 - 1, Milan won the fixture in the penalty shoot-out in Dubai where AC Milan have been going through some winter training. All eyes will be on the team list to see whether Beckham will make a start against AS Roma on Sunday.
