Beckham, Messi & Zanetti React to THAT RED CARD Moment at the 1998 World Cup | Simeone 

My man Messi spoke for 8 seconds and then dipped.

Messi: "Yeah I watched it" Amazon Editors: USE THAT, USE THAT. PUT HIM IN THE THUMBNAIL, TITLE, EVERYTHING. PUT ZANETTI'S NAME UP FRONT ON THE TITLE BUT DONT PUT HIM IN THE THUMBNAIL

Messi’s contribution was something ! I’m literally flabbergasted that he actually watched this match at home with his family…

Massive respect to Beckham for being such humble and honoured man!

I love how at the end Cholo turns it around, basically stating that he actually made Beckham a favor. What a guy! 🤣

I think Zidane 8 years later showed us what an ACTUAL red should look like haha. Yellow at MOST, and I'm not even an England fan.

That goal from Bergkamp though. The control, the technique and the finish. Incredible.

Beckham has always been a gentleman! The way it was the hardest stage of his career and he still humbly moved on, what a guy

It's really great that both Simeone and Beckham invited each other in their documentaries to tell their perspectives regarding that moment

Think my 10 yr old self just got closure. Becks was my gateway to the romanticism of football, and I just remember how devastated I felt at the time. To see Simeone acknowledge how difficult the years in between were for Becks warms my heart.

World Cup from 1998 was great. These playera, these matches, these moments will never be forgotten.

That goal from Bergkamp is one of the greatest goals ever. I remember WC 98. It was stacked with world class players.

Still one of my favorite games ever!! The rivalry heading in, the Owen goal, the red card, the penalties,that game had everything

This is sportmanship. No hatred outside, just war inside the pitch.

made that 99 treble extra sweet, going thru Simeone's Inter.

Both are such a special characters , memories are beautiful , love seeing Semeone and Beckham

Diego Simeone: *Fouls from behind, pats him on the head, dives to the ground from minimal contact* Also Diego Simeone: "At no time did I do anything unsportsmanlike"

Love when the Argentinians beat the engerlish Seimpre Deigo, patata cabeza beeekham. From Scotland 🇦🇷 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿.

In 2012 I took my family to watch Beckham play in the Olympic stadium in Montreal. It was an amazing experience. First time ever that a football game filled a estadium in Canada.

Impresiónante verlos a ellos en esos videos de antes y verlos ahora es como una máquina del tiempo.....que fortaleza la de que tienen al contar eso como si fuera ayer... Lindo escucharlos 🌹🌹🐻🐻

i still remember that game, i was 11 years old. I watched that game with my father, uncle, cousins etc. What a game of football, 98 worldcup is the best worldcup i have enjoyed in my life so far. The memories take me back to my childhood and that Michael Owen’s goal tho.

Messi in a Barça kit, I'm in tears.

As an Argentine, Beckham might be the only or one of the only English players that i like and can appreciate, maybe Rooney could be another one, but Beckham is a true gentleman and a great person.

I still remember the headline of an English newspaper after this match: "it was 10 lions and an idiot"

Thats the "do or die" moment for Becks, in the following season he won the Treble after beat Simeone's Inter in QF

A fantastic way of making the best out of an error from David. This story could help many to get out of darkness.

I personally think this is the moment which made Man United won treble. and I silently thankful to Simeone.

Great memories. Glad they both made peace with each other. I guess I'm showing how old I am now. Seriously though, happy days.

Between this, and then Ortega headbutting VDS in the next game, that Bergkamp goal, already a special goal on it's own, was justice served. And then Beckham assisted both of Yorke's goal when United face Inter in the Champions League, knocking them out en route to the final and eventually winning it. Quite the redemption.

Becks did well to comeback from it

Here in Argentina we greatly admire David Beckham, a great player and a great person.

The first ever world cup I watched and understood, I was just 8 years old I think. Still remember these moments so vividly...

Didn't know Maluma was such a great player

El fútbol fue hermoso hasta principio de los 2010´S

What a monumental game that was, and the Netherlands one after. That Argentina side (including the 1994 one) was amazing.

To this day, that’s the hardest challenge Beckham has ever made on a player

My only proper memory of football as a child. I had tonsillitis, I was watching the game with my Mum and Nan. I was eating chicken noodles. When Owen scored I screamed and noodles went everywhere 🤣 I remember that goal and Becks’ red card. My Mum and Nan were annoyed at me for screaming, and chucking noodles all over the gaff, but I think even they knew that game was special.

I bet every England supporters were rooting for the Dutch in the quarters and jumped with joy at Bergkamps magical goal...

Lo que describe Messi es lo que hizimos y sentimos todos en esa epoca despues de ver un partido del mundial... ❤

I remember this moment. I was 13 with my dad at the pub. It was beserk in there. Nice to hear and watch this professional side of the story

seeing messi in barça kit let’s my heart beat faster

Recuerdo ese partido🇦🇷🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 , yo era pequeño tenía 10 años , sin duda uno de los mundiales que más me marcaron Francia 1998.

Good to see Simeone and Zanetti speaking about that time playing for Argentina, and Beckham and Verón playing for England. What a time.

Simeone was such a legend for getting Beckham sent off, completely masterclass in shithousery from him.I also loved Batistuta capping the sending off hilarious, good too shes look on his face as he's clapping.

Bergkamp scored some quality goals, great player.

Messi: me acuerdo mucho del mundial 98 que lo vivi muchisimo con los chicos del barrio, con la familia. Saliamos a las calles despues de los partido. MESSI: I remember a lot about the 98 World Cup. I lived it a lot with the kids from the neighborhood, with the family. we went out to the streets after the games

What a great video. Keep it up Amazon. Never heard of this channel until today.

I’m from 🇦🇷, respect for Beckham and England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿, the foundation of Argentine football, BocaJUNIORS, RIVER PLATE, VÉLEZ SARSFIELD, and the list goes on, our rugby, football, learn from English teachers. Lot of respect

El mejor partido desde que empece a mirar lps mundiales fue Argentina vs Inglaterra 98'. Fue un ida y vuelta.

Although i dont agree with how Beckham was treated after this, moments like this make or break players, Becks went on to Captain his country n had a wonderful career. Silimar to how Ronaldo was treated after the Rooney incident, Fergie was very good at protecting his players n having a them vs us mentality.

Tremendos jugadores!!! Mis respetos!!!

Thank You Mr. Beckam for reacting like a Gentleman! Sport meens respect, fairplay, tolerance and a peaceful body language. These are our rules, we love to have a harmonic and peaceful atmosphere for everyone in our life! True winners are able to argue in a moderate and elegant way to everyone! ❤

I can't imagine Messi watching football games cause he is the best player to ever touch a football.

I didn't know about this, i'm from 1992 don't blame me, however what Beckham did was definitely not okay, but it wasn't sooo bad to the point of getting him a red card, that's was forced at best, even a yellow would seem like a lot

Awesome documentary, grande Cholo!

When Veron says "el se tira...", he isn't saying "He falls down..." as these captions misinform. He actually said "He throws himself down" when referring to Simeone!

Generally speaking it's such a shame that these decisions happen in the game. Was it stupid? Yes. Was it dangerous or endangering his opponent? No. The whole game was changed by the red card and it affected Beckham for years afterwards. Minor things like this and penalties given for the smallest touch result in hug consequences for tiny things

Honestly, Beckham did kick Simeone, but Simeone wasn't exactly the model sportsman. I'm not saying he cheated, and it's good to see that neither of them have bad feelings towards each other, but Simeone was, in my opinion, more in the wrong than Beckham.

Can still hear the commentary from that Bergkamp goal in my head. What a player

I remember after that win....I went outside in my dads Metallic green 72 cutlass convertable....driving all over town with a huge argentine flag

All I can see is Bergkamp's goal....truly one of the best of all time

Essa copa foi boa demais! muitos jogos fantásticos!

So many characters and stars in football from 98-2012.

Beckham is brilliant and he has to be respected forever!

What you Argentines don't know is that next season Beckham was booed, screamed at, death threats, hate mail from every club except man utd and actually by the middle of the season he was playing so well he turned is all into fans!!!! Loved him playing for england played every match like it was his last, Simone won the game with that bit of 'sportsmanship'

Watching this game in 98 and rewatching this moment now… i STILL ask myself… dafuq is that a red card 🙄

The ref also disallowed a perfectly good goal by sol Campbell in extra time

Beckham siendo un caballero SIEMPRE

Fast forward 24 years later.. Argentina still suffering worthily for those glorious triumphs 💯 Incredible nation, incredible culture!

This event was the beginning of ‘Brand Beckham’ He grew up very quickly mostly due to the fallout, eventually became England captain, and one of the most marketable people on the planet.

I was in a rowdy Scottish pub on the Isle of Skye, the roof came off at full time. Gutted because we were doing really well with the match on a knife edge. Silly thing to do by Beckham but rather ott to give a red. (Utd and Beckham fan)

To everybody on the outside these games mean everything, but for these guys that’s exactly what it is for them, a game. Of course they work hard and put in their best, but they cannot take the end result too seriously like everyone else or they would drive themselves mad.

Never a red, yellow at most, good for Beckham to be able to move on from that, even though it absolutely tarnished his image at the time👏

Argentina always shot themselves in the foot I expected them to win it in 1998 but against the Netherlands look at the unnecessary redcards they got. In 2002 they could not even manage to go past the group stage In 2006wc Pekerman had an awesome team... just perfect all he needed to do was drop Tevez n plug in Messi who had been playing big games with Barca. But somehow Pekerman had his mind stuck on Tevez and again Argentina went out in what would have been an easy win for them. The great Maradona comes in and leaves out Cambiasso and Zanetti who had just managed to win the treble with Inter... as always South American coaches are biased when selecting players. Maradona does what Pekerman did and Argentina is out.

Simeone was a cracking footballer and he might just be the best manager on the planet (Klopps having a great run tbf but folk forget how things ended with Dortmund) mad he achieved all of that without any eyebrows

I love how Messi said “Aight imma head out peace yow”

That Bergkamp goal is the highlight of this video!!

It happens tbh. When frustrations run high, you can just see red and lash out with a kick even if it is a pussy kick and instantly regret it

Beckham is a clever, principled and inspiring guy.

Gives me even more respect for Beckham

I always had Beckham a bit overated as a player but he is a gentleman and role model for the younger. Respectfull and classy always. I admire him for that

Messi back then was 11 years old men and that 11 years old boy became one of the greatest footballers ever if not the greatest. Simeone a truly cheater and this red card was so undeserved for beckham

OMG i totally forgot about this game. Great game, so intense. Alot of people in my country were England supporter and end up really hating Simone..especially Man Utd fans.

Zanetti, my hero 🖤💙

Completely incorrect red card. That's not excessive force or brutality. It's unsportsmanslike conduct. Nothing more than a yellow card.

I feel like Beckham should have only had a yellow and simeone a red

I have good memories of France 98, that was the World Cup where I really understood the misticism this tournament has in our country and in the rest of the world.

Qué lindo es el fútbol, papá!

I respect beckhams honesty. He felt wound up with the rub of the head. I cannot accept someone saying he wasn't unsporting. He clearly exaggerated the contact.

Hardy a red though. Corrupt FIFA REF.. Barely touched him.

The most shocking red card ¡ saw is the Zidane’s red card in the final of the World Cup, in his last game as football player, in the end of the match,.. genius design,..

se me humeo el monitor cuando aparecio simeone y veron, que jugador david por dios

As an argentinian i must say this, Beckham is a true gentelman, huge difference with simeone, but at the end of the day is just football,a game where everybody is trying to take advantage of every situation, is just that," the spirit of winning"

Beckham overreacted here, he had only himself to blame for it. The sending off was inevitable. But it was a learning moment for him and he came back stronger which is what sports is all about: falling down, getting up, fighting and overcoming. Good for him.

The dramatic music leading up to Becks entering the frame had me cackling 😂

That Bergkamp goal though ❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥

Simeone knocked Beckham over and pushed his head into the ground. All Beckham did was brush his leg. Simeone should have been sent off not Beckham

Beckham tiene colgada una camiseta Argentina en su casa. Eso jamás va a suceder viceversa con un jugador argento 😂

Messi is so soft spoken!🥰

Beckham's No.23 Real Madrid shirt was my first football shirt. Iconic fella, flaws and all.
