Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The 1998 red card incident made Beckham the most hated man in England; by 2001, he'd been rehabilitated through sheer performance and tabloid patience.
This documentary notably avoids the 2003 Ferguson boot incident and Real Madrid's Galácticos collapse—convenient omissions for a film released during Beckham's Netflix rebrand era.
