Real Madrid Trains For the Crowd

We've never seen everybody so anxious to get to practice! About five thousand fans showed up to Rice Eccles Stadium today to watch Real Madrid's training session.

After training, a group of teenage soccer fans kept a steady chant of "We want Beckham" and finally received their wish, as Beckham and several others came out for a few quick autographs for the fans in the front row. The players didn't have much time with the crowd though, as all Real Madrid players went on to participate in a private autograph session for fans that paid a high price for the special opportunity to meet the entire team.
