WHAT HAPPENED?

This isn't the first time Beckham has linked up with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/team/england/b5hjnvaafo5plphdcoeozkw49" target="_blank">England</a> striker Russo. Ahead of the Women's World Cup last summer, the pair sat down for a chat at an Adidas event. During their conversation, <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-12307431/David-Beckham-thanks-Lionesses-star-Alessia-Russo-inspiring-daughter-Harper-discuss-number-topics-ahead-Womens-World-Cup.html" target="_blank">Beckham thanked Russo</a> for inspiring younger generations. He said: "For you to inspire a new generation of footballers - boys, girls, and my daughter, I want to say thank you for that."

WHAT BECKHAM SAID

Football stars past and present including Kylian Mbappe, Ronaldo Nazario and Gianluigi Donnarumma watched the Cavaliers beat the Nets 111-102. Donovan Mitchell inspired the Cavaliers by registering a season-high 45 points.

The <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/team/arsenal-women/5rurqie3qt1qav9ir5mkqinn" target="_blank">Arsenal</a> duo were making the most of the final days of their winter break.
