MANCHESTER: David Beckham put the controversy over his cut eye behind him by creating both goals as Manchester United beat a badly depleted Juventus 2-1 at Old Trafford on Wednesday to all but clinch their place in the Champions League quarter-finals.
Beckham's quickly-taken corner allowed defender Wes Brown to head his first ever goal for United after only four minutes and the England captain then laid on Ruud van Nistelrooy's clincher five minutes from time to help United make it three wins out of three in Group D.
