Beckham Suffers Potentially Serious Injury

AC Milan and England midfielder David Beckham went off with a serious-looking ankle or foot injury late in Sunday’s 1-0 Serie A win over Chievo.

Beckham was getting ready to kick a ball unchallenged when he suddenly pulled up and signalled to the bench despite second-placed Milan having used all their substitutes.

A Sky television reporter on the San Siro touchline said Beckham had told the bench “It’s broken, it’s broken” as he came off.

There was no further news on the extent of the injury for the 34-year-old, who was hoping to be part of England’s World Cup squad in June.

Having hips and thighs ‘is healthy’

Carrying extra weight on your hips, bum and thighs is good for your health, protecting against heart and metabolic problems, UK experts have said.

Hip fat mops up harmful fatty acids and contains an anti-inflammatory agent that stops arteries clogging, they say.

Big behinds are preferable to extra fat around the waistline, which gives no such protection, the Oxford team said.

Science could look to deliberately increase hip fat, they told the International Journal of Obesity.

And in the future, doctors might prescribe ways to redistribute body fat to the hips to protect against cardiovascular and metabolic diseases such as diabetes. in an ideal world, the more fat around the thighs the better – as long as the tummy stays slim.”
