Calafiori scores in Beckham boots as Arsenal fight back: ‘My goal is to play is as many positions as possible’
Story updated
The story in brief
26-second readRiccardo Calafiori sparked Arsenal’s comeback against Leeds United on Saturday, and he did it in boots honouring one of English football’s most famous goals. As noted by LiveScore , the Italy defender was the first player to wear and score in Adidas’ new David Beckham Predators.
The special edition marks 25 years since Beckham’s free-kick against Greece sent England to the 2002 World Cup. Arsenal trailed to James Justin’s 55th-minute strike, but Calafiori levelled seven minutes later from close range after Ben White nodded Noni Madueke’s cross back across goal.
Bruno Guimarães then struck the winner.
