DAVID Beckham was handed his AC Milan debut tonight after being named in the starting XI for the trip to Roma.
His inclusion was a surprise after coach Carlo Ancelotti hinted in the week the England midfielder would be on the bench as Serie A resumed following the winter break.
Beckham lined up alongside Andrea Pirlo and Clarence Seedorf in an experienced-looking midfield behind a front three of Kaka, Ronaldinho and Alexandre Pato.
The former Manchester United and Real Madrid star is on a short-term loan deal at Milan having joined the Rossoneri from Major League Soccer side the Los Angeles Galaxy.
