After a humiliating defeat to Arsenal in the FA Cup, Manchester United hung their heads in disappointment. The locker room after the game silent, that is, until Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson entered the locker room. Outraged by the defeat, Ferguson kicked a poorly aimed football cleat. The cleat ended up hitting David Beckham above his left eye, causing Beckham to receive stitches. Ferguson had not purposely aimed the cleat towards Beckham's face, so eventually David let it slide. He described Ferguson as a fatherly model and told people it was more of a family fued gone wrong.
