Premiership: Beckham escapes unharmed from crash

Injured England captain David Beckham escaped unharmed after his top-of-the-range car was in a collision with another vehicle on a country road, it was reported today.

The Manchester United midfielder, whose left foot was broken in a challenge with Deportivo La Coruna’s Argentine defender Aldo Duscher two weeks ago, was at the wheel of the £160,000 (€260,600) Mercedes 500 at the time of the crash.
