#3 Real Madrid vs. Malaga, 21 September 2003, La Liga
David Beckham's stint at Real Madrid was part of an armada of the superstars who came to be known as the Galacticos. Even in a team boasting of deadball specialists like Zidane, Figo and Roberto Carlos, Beckham made a name for himself for occasionally delivering one from the top drawer.
His first free-kick for the club came against Malaga when he curled a ball and befuddled the keeper while doing so. Very reminiscent of his last goal for United which he scored against Everton, and wouldn’t you know, it was also a free-kick.
Though his romance with the Spanish giants didn’t last long and he couldn’t deliver any European success, his free-kicks helped Real in matches when they were trailing.
