David Beckham insists that Milan can emerge victorious against Manchester United in the Champions League clash at Old Trafford on Wednesday.
The Diavoli lost the first leg 3-2 at the San Siro. Ronaldinho's early goal was cancelled out by Paul Scholes' strike. Wayne Rooney went on to bag a brace, before Clarence Seedorf pulled one back late on to gift his side a chance at progression.
Coach Leonardo's charges now must score at least two goals away from home in order to progress the competition's quarterfinals.
And former Red Devil, Beckham, believes his side can overturn the deficit and book a place in the quarter-finals of the European competition.
"We can win there," he said, according to The Mirror.
"Getting two goals at Old Trafford will be hard but it’s not impossible.
"We will be focused. It will be a very emotional night for me."
