Bayern hold no fear for Beckham

DAVID BECKHAM last night dismissed Bayern Munich’s threat to Real Madrid’s ambitions of lifting a 10th European crown.

Bayern, who are currently second in the Bundesliga, play host to the Spanish league leaders in a Champions League second round, first leg tie tomorrow night.

“If Madrid play as well as we know we can, we will not have any problems in Munich,” said Beckham. “We’ve got nothing to fear. You don’t go out to play football like that. We’ve got respect for them because they are a tough outfit, but we also have a squad of players with a lot of talent.”
