Beckham creates Ibra goal as PSG debut ends in victory

David Beckham made a winning PSG debut in victory over Olympique Marseille.

Former Manchester United and Real Madrid midfielder enjoyed the perfect start as a PSG player as his new side struck a vital blow in their bid to win the Ligue 1 title with a 2-0 victory over Marseille.

Former England captain Beckham joined PSG on a five-month deal last month and came off the bench to make his debut at the Parc des Princes, helping to lay on Zlatan Ibrahimovic's injury-time clincher.

The opener had arrived from a player signed with the long-term in mind, with Lucas Moura, a fellow January arrival, scoring a deflected first-half goal.

The upshot was that Carlo Ancelotti's men saw off one of their fellow title challengers and moved three points ahead of Lyon at the top.
