The legendary David Beckham was one not only on the pitch, but continues to be so off it. But, the football career that he ended in 2013 still keeps him busy and makes him yearn.
Or rather, one sentiment from his eight-year stint at Manchester United that triumphed. It was the Red Devils' landmark victory in the 1999 Champions League final, when the team of the equally legendary Sir Alex Ferguson scored two goals in stoppage time and managed a 2-1 win
"I want to get over that feeling again, I can never play again and I can never get over that feeling again. I don't think it will ever be done the way we did it. Three minutes in the Champions League final to register a treble. It was a dream come true," Beckham said in a documentary about that final.
Manchester United were the only English club to achieve the treble until 2023, winning the league and FA Cup, before Manchester City repeated the feat.
