It\u2019s important &#8211; the Spanish Cup is obviously important in Spain, to get that trophy, especially with the games that are coming up against Barcelona, it\u2019s an important one,\u201d said Beckham. \u201cBarcelona is a great team, they\u2019re probably the best team of their generation, besides Manchester United.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Beckham joined Real Madrid in 2003 for 25 million pounds and played for the team for four seasons. While he was considered by most supporters of the club to be an average player, Beckham managed to win the league title with Los Merengues in 2007, his final season at the capital club. Having experienced El Clasico first hand, the 35-year-old acknowledges that gaining confidence is crucial in the rivalry. He is anxious to see whether or not Real Madrid can continue its progress against Barcelona in its upcoming Champions League matches.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you\u2019re playing against teams like Barcelona, you need every bit of confidence,\u201d said Beckham. \u201cWhen you\u2019ve got that in games, it pushes things on and that might be enough for Real Madrid. Barcelona has such great players, it\u2019s a great experience. They\u2019ve got two games coming up, and they\u2019ll be tough.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/d65bget.media_95-150x90.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>See the original post:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/foreign.peacefmonline.com\/sports\/201104\/155595.php\" title=\"David Beckham Expresses Delight In Real Madrid Defeating Barcelona In Copa del Rey\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">David Beckham Expresses Delight In Real Madrid Defeating Barcelona In Copa del Rey<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Speaking with reporters today after the Los Angeles Galaxy\u2019s practice, David Beckham expressed his delight in his former club, Real Madrid, pulling off a big win against Barcelona in the Copa del Rey. \u201cIt was great to see, being a Real Madrid fan, seeing them win that game. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-388724","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-business"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
