And surely if TJ Harper

hits the target and scores,

it's all over for Real Madrid.

Saved! Onto the bar! Casillas

does his bit for Real Madrid again.

Munez looking for Harris.

He's the furthest man up field.

Arsenal have been caught out here.

Too many men committed forward.

Gavin Harris,

on his own, going for goal!

Real Madrid are back in this final!

What an extraordinary turn of events.

Arsenal disappointed.

It hits the bar,

it bounds out to Munez,

and in one swoop,

a ball up front to Harris,

a superb dip and volley over Lehmann.

Four minutes.

Four very long minutes for Arsenal,

four very short ones for Real Madrid.

Maybe, just maybe, they can get back

into this game. Beckham.

He's picked out Harris. Munez wants it.

Finally, they start to combine.

It's Munez.

Lehmann tips it onto the bar.

What a save that was. Reflexes from

Lehmann, a close-in volley from Munez.

At last, Harris and Munez

really linking up with each other.

These two can play together.

The clock ticks on.

Gravesen looks forward for Real Madrid.

Arsenal, for the first time

in the match, under pressure.

Here's Cicinho.

They know, Arsenal,

they are in a match now.

Gravesen urging his teammates.

He knows how important it is,

and the game can still be won.

Beckham's corner.

Lehmann punches clear.

Lehmann's had his problems

with crosses,

but there he's really confident

and elects to punch.

Into stoppage time we go.

Two minutes at the end

of this Champions League final.

Roberto Carlos

with a high-lofted ball.

Desperation time, really,

for Real Madrid.

The super sub with a super goal!

Two-two!

Arsenal's shell-shocked.

The Bernabu is rocking.

They really believe

they could win this final now.

They've scored once in stoppage time.

Can they do it again?

Guti. Harris with the touch on.

Here comes Santiago Munez,

brought down.

Free kick, Real Madrid.

If there's anyone you'd want

in this situation, it's David Beckham.

Cometh the moment, cometh the man.

It's Beckham to win the

Champions League for Real Madrid.

Beckham!

It's looking good! It's in!

David Beckham has done it

for Real Madrid!

They are European champions!

The most incredible finish in a

Champions League final you'd ever see.

Beckham with the winning goal,

Real Madrid with the winning habit!

They were down and out at two-nil.

They've come back into it.

And it's those three who

have led them to European glory.

In 2000 Jefferies moved to Los Angeles where he founded and subsequently sold the B2B media group Line 56.In 2002 he moved into the world of feature films, beginning with soccer trilogy Goal!. Jefferies co-wrote the screenplay for the first Goal! with contributions from veteran British writers Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais. The story of a young illegal immigrant, rising from poverty to become one of the world's greatest players was released by Disney and has been shown in 38 countries worldwide. Goal! grossed $27.6m at the box office. The $50m deal that was struck between the producers and Adidas was the biggest ever between a corporate brand and a film production.Jefferies was one of the writers on the second part of the trilogy, Goal! 2: Living the Dream.... and co-wrote the third part Goal! 3: Taking on the World with Piers Ashworth. In September 2004 Jefferies, together with Stuart Ford, fronted a bid backed by the Kraft family, to purchase Liverpool Football Club. The bid would have valued the club at approximately £200m. In 2005 the club was subsequently purchased in a deal by Tom Hicks and George Gillett which valued the club at £218.9m. In October 2010, as part of a fans' campaign against the ownership, Jefferies conceived and directed a short film entitled 'Dear Mr Hicks' which was released virally via YouTube. The Independent newspaper praised the video saying: "True to the city's capacity to create something out of adversity, a wonderfully inventive viral film, Dear Mr Hicks, has been published online to make it clear where he ought to go. The fans' view can be summarised thus: away, and soon".In 2011 Jefferies re-launched Milkshake Films. more…
