Victoria Beckham ‘still wants to kill people’ who bullied David over infamous red card moment

David Beckham was infamously shown a red card as Argentina knocked England out of the World Cup in France in 1998 and now his wife Victoria has opened up on his treatment

Victoria Beckham says she still “want to kill” those who bullied her husband and left him “clinically depressed” over his World Cup red card shame.

Posh still hasn’t forgiven those who tortured David Beckham back in 1998 following his infamous sending off against Argentina that contributed to England exit in France. The Manchester United star became one of the most hated men in Britain after being given his marching orders in Saint-Etienne.

He received death threats, with an image of a Beckham effigy hanging in East London not far from his childhood home a lasting symbol as he was subsequently booed at every away ground for over a year. In a new Netflix documentary, Victoria discussed the aftermath and revealed she dropped the news of her pregnancy to David the night before his infamous red card moment.

Recalling the reaction back home, the former Spice Girl said Becks, just 23 at the time, didn’t deserve what he was put through some 25 years ago. “I mean, the absolute hate, the public bullying, to another level,” she said. “He was depressed, absolutely clinically depressed. I still want to kill these people.”
