Beckham hails match-winner Rooney after defeat
David Beckham described Wayne Rooney as among the world's best as Manchester
United put his AC Milan side out of the Champions League.
Rooney scored twice as United romped to a 4-0 last-16 second-leg win to
secure a 7-2 aggregate victory and a place in the quarter-finals as
Beckham's return to Old Trafford ended in defeat.
''He's such an exceptional talent,'' Beckham told ITV1 of Rooney. ''I
think without a doubt he's one of the best, if not the best, player at
the moment along with [Cristiano] Ronaldo and [Lionel] Messi.''
Beckham entered the fray midway through the second-half, coming off the
substitutes' bench to a standing ovation. But the contest was already over.
''It was a disappointing night because we lost the game but returning
here is always special,'' added the former England captain. ''It was
unbelievable. I have to say thank you. It was really incredible.
It was nice to be back, a disappointing night but nice to be back.''
Rooney has now scored 30 goals this season and could overtake the tally of
42 achieved by Ronaldo - now at eliminated Real Madrid - in the 2007-2008
season.
''It's a challenge,'' United manager Sir Alex Ferguson said. ''I was happy
with him getting to the 30 mark, to be honest. But he just keeps improving
and tonight he was sensational.''
Milan simply could not live with United, Ferguson said. ''It was a
marvellous second-half performance,'' he added. ''We played very, very
well. When we play at that tempo, we're difficult to play against and
it was a really solid performance.''
