Beckham ejected from kids' match for arguing

Soccer star David Beckham has been known to receive a red card from a soccer referee every once in awhile but I would assume that Beckham would be safe attending a children?s soccer match.

However, that isn?t the case as Beckham was recently shown the door at a kids soccer match in Los Angeles.

David gave out all the details in an upcoming episode of ITV?s ?The Johnathan Ross Show? about being ejected by a youth soccer referee:

?I was watching the kids play the other day, it was the younger kids of Romeo?s club, and there was a penalty given,? he said on the talk show. ?And the kids are seven years old and he sent the kid off. And I was like, ?Come on, he?s seven, referee, you can?t send him off.??

Beckham said his protest backfired, adding, ?He looked at me and was like, ?Yes, I can.? And he came over and gave me a red card. He told me to get out of the park. For real. The gate was only 20 yards away and I waited and went back in when my son?s game was on.?
